- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? Yes

Pretties ups the stakes from Uglies, and i flew through the first half of the book. we are introduced to some even darker sides of this society, and our cast of characters fills out. However, once Tally crashes into the “reservation” and we find the primitive humans, i was lost a bit this plot point seemed to veer the story into a different direction that i felt didn’t entirely fit within the established world that Westerfled had already built. but with two book left, im happy to be proven wrong. im interested to see how Tally as a Special is handled in the remaining two novels.
