A review by shema
Uglies: Shay's Story by Scott Westerfeld, Devin Grayson, Steven Cummings

3.0

I felt like I should've liked it more especially with the interesting dystopian premise which I thought was done really well, there were just some things that annoyed me. Some of the scenes felt too long such as her traveling in the forest. There was also a love triangle stuck in there and even though it didn't consume the story entirely exactly, the romance still felt unneeded and contrived especially when I wanted the story to just be about the main character and her friend. One more thing that annoyed me was that there was sort of the Liar Revealed cliche near the end.
This is a good story with a good message, but I couldn't totally ignore some of the flaws it had.
