Scott Westerfeld The Uglies Quartet 4 Books Collection Box Set by Scott Westerfeld
5.0
Though I rated this series as separate books on GoodReads -- because I thought the fourth book, surprisingly, deserved a higher rating than the first three -- I am writing a quick word of warning about this collective ebook collection, which is how I purchased it:
The titles are, ridiculously, *out of order*. Because there is no book covers (just a brief b&w title page), and for some reason it was put together with continuous page numbers (they are not numbered per book as they were written -- like a real boxed quartet would be -- but rather as a single continuous book, making it further complicated)... you can accidentally start reading #4 (Extras) *before* reading #3 ("Specials"). I almost did it myself.
I don't know about other versions (Kindle, etc.) but the ebook that I read on my Nookcolor was this way. Just fyi!
