I'll have to find these at my local library.

I quite enjoyed the first in his Midnighter series. He's a good writer.

Scott Westerfeld is one of my favorite writers, he's excellent =)

That's exactly what I was thinking! There were a bunch of things in Pretties that I disagreed with, but it wasn't a horrible novel. But, when I got to Specials, I was forcing myself to finish it, just so I knew what happened to Tally.


I wholeheartedly agree with you. Uglies was a great book, Pretties was great too but there were so many times where I wanted to stop Tally from doing some of the things she did. Specials...I can't even recall it very well. I was forcing myself to finish it too, but the ending wasn't so bad. There was a lot of action though and I found it hard to keep track of what was happening.

My friend read that book, and she was telling me all about it. I think it sounds really cool, so I'll have to read it sometime.

You should, alleycat! The series is most excellent ^_^

And on that note... who's read Extras? :D I liked it very much. Especially the face ranks and the concept of kicking videos. Finally someone's parodying YouTube.

Ew

sorry

but ew.
i loved the way they were written and it was a good story line.
but ew.
i haven't read all the way through the first one yet... bored me to death.
So i tried second, then third, then extras. Extras was the best.
2nd and 3rd were alright i guess-i managed to finish them but they were so boring i almost cried when i realised Extras was the only book in the house i had not read.

Boring.
Horribly horribly boring.
Ew.
Sorry but they are the nastiest books i've read.
Ever.
Writing gives my life purpose
