I did not expect this book to gut me the way it did. Scott Westerfeld builds upon the world of Uglies heart wrenchingly as the protagonist Frey explores what it means to be her own person in the interpersonal and systematic perspectives. Gotta love some science fiction that’s actually a love letter to people pleasers.
