Fans of the Hunger Games will love this series.
In this futuristic world, when children are fifteen or under, they are considered uglies, with ugly, deformed faces. However, when they turn sixteen, they undergo an operation to turn them pretty, with large beautiful eyes and perfectly formed faces.
Fifteen year old Tally is the youngest of her group of friends, who enjoy playing all kinds of tricks, but when her best friend Peris turns pretty and moves to New Prettyland she is left on her own.
When she returns from sneaking out to see Peris, she meets another girl, named Shay, who enjoys playing tricks just like her and they quickly become friends. Plus, they share the same birthday meaning that they will turn pretty together.
Then the night before they both turn sixteen, Shay decides to run away to a place in the forbidden forest where some friends ran away to, but Tally refuses to follow.
So when the specials (police/spies) request that Tally goes to find them, and if she doesn't she will never turn pretty, Tally doesn't know whether to betray them or turn pretty...
