If the first had been this bad, I never would have read the others.

This is not the last book in the series but I was am kind of tempted to just leave it like that. I had mixed feelings about the ending becuase I think this is the end of Tally's story. [b:Extras|493456|Extras (Uglies, #4)|Scott Westerfeld|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1347490204s/493456.jpg|3315797] is supposed the have another protagonist.

In the beginning I hated Tally's voice, she was so...mean. I kept thinking come on Tally change your mind, rewire yourself, come on you can do it. The whole mentality of the Cutters feels very toxic.

Lots of unclear terminology,
Spoiler and the characters didn't feel like themselves at all anymore (even though this was because of their brain modification).
