I can’t. You guys. I CAN NOT. I remember liking these books so much as a kid. How is it so damn bad? I wanted to rate this higher for the sake of nostalgia but I can’t. If you didn’t read this as a kid, skip it now. If you did read it and think “it can’t be that bad”, read it again. It can and is that bad.

Read in one sitting. The story just keeps taking so many frustrating turns!
I read this book in one night. Reading the Uglies series makes me feel like I'm a little kid again, when I devoured books and lost all sense of time when reading them. This series is better written than some other very popular fantasy-type books out there (I'm thinking of the Twilight books, which I did enjoy, but...) and really effectively creates a parallel universe that is plausible and oh-so-disturbing.
This book really lost me at the "savages". Completely unnecessary, it adds nothing to the story and is arguably awful. The rest of the story is pretty average. A mostly enjoyable read, but nothing to write home about.
