Pretties - Part 2 (Uglies Trilogy)

***TW: Self Harm*** Everyone's itching to stay as "bubbly" as possible. What does bubbly even mean? In a way, it means absolutely everything, but also nothing at all... poetic, don't you think? Laura and Meggie think so too. They're here to guide you through the next part of Pretties, as Tally and her new-beau Zane (who sadly, still isn't David) try to find a way out of the city.

Pretties - Part 1 (Uglies Trilogy)

With all the champagne, costume parties, and pleasure gardens, life in New Pretty Town for the newly pretty Tally is (for lack of a better word) pretty great! But of course, Meggie and Laura know everything is not always as it seems (because they read the first book, duh!). Regardless, they are ready to discuss book 2 of Scott Westerfeld's trilogy and all the very pretty and not-so-pretty things that come along with it.
