Uglies
by Scott Westerfeld

Scott Westerfeld creates a futuristic world in his novel The Uglies, where everyone gets cosmetic surgery at age 16 to become a standardized version of "pretty."  The ones that don't buy into the conformity make Uglies startlingly thought-provoking, raising questions for our present society and for ourselves.
Review by Jeanelle W.
