Tally is about to turn sixteen, and she can't wait. In just a few weeks she'll have the operation that will turn her from a repellent ugly into a stunning pretty. And as a pretty, she'll be catapulted into a high-tech paradise where her only job is to have fun. But Tally's new friend Shay isn't sure she wants to become a pretty. When Shay runs away, Tally learns about a whole new side of the pretty world—and it isn't very pretty. The authorities offer Tally a choice: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn pretty at all. Tally's choice will change her world forever....

    A re-read of an old favorite. Hopefully the movie will come out sometime in the next 100 years and after realizing that I didn't remember any details, I thought it would be a good time to read again (via audiobook this time round).

    I definitely think the book has held up since I read it in high school. I was still enthralled in the story and didn't want to stop. Can't wait to re-read the rest of the series!
