Uglies by Scott Westerfeld

3.5

Slow build with a really unlikeable main character. Didn’t love the Instalove or really the love interest at all, it felt like as soon as he was introduced Tally stopped caring about her friend Shay at all. Hoping for more critique of the Pretty surgery in the next book bc this book didn’t really critique why those beauty standards were harmful in and of themselves, Tally only became anti surgery when it turned out being pretty also included a brain surgery to make you compliant with the distopian government.
