Subject: Uglies by Scot Westerfeld

When I first saw this book on the shelf (YA) I was turned off by the title and its labeling, but I kept hearing a lot of good things about it so when my daughter brought it home, I ended up reading it. And liked it.

Its a fun, fast paced read. The labeling and the turnoff from that is one of the main points of the book.

Now, I read the second in the series and didn't quite enjoy it as much but that's norm for me. I always seem to like first books best.

I haven't read the 3rd yet, but my daughter has. She liked them all and I was really psyched that she read something with this much food for thought and tough female protag after some of the...hmm, shall we say vapid minded/fashionista crud she's been reading lately.
