Zane or David? Ugly or pretty? Wild or city?
Special or sane?
How does it all end?
Well, the final volume of the Uglies trilogy is available now, and this is the place to discuss it. That’s right, it’s the Specials . . .
WARNING: Do not read the comments of this post
until you have read all three Uglies books.
Unless you really want to know about Dr. Cable dying on page 596.
(No, wait . . . that’s Dumbledore.*)
Let the spoilage begin!
*I slay me.
UPDATE: Most of the conversations here have moved over to westerboard.com, the forum for all things westerfeldian.
LA LA LA. I can’t hear you. I have yet to receive my copy.
tough, tough choices. to stay a special? i don’t know if i could have done that. i kind of understand, though, that tally wanted to protect the wild. being in the wild always cleared her head, made her bubbly, helped her to find herself.
on another note: i am generally an emotional person, but am even more so lately…my husband is in the army and is currently in iraq, so i’ve been living alone for the first time in my life. anyway, it’s not unusual for me to get teary while reading a book, but good grief. i did not handle any of the zane bits well at all. not him being “crippled,” not tally’s rejection of him, and really really not his death. i was a wreck.
but overall…i the ending satisfied me. although, of course, i’d be happy to read one or two or ten more. ๐
damn… I can’t post/read this thread…. so, I’ll just be going now…
BUT, I have finished Midnighters, Blue Noon. Woo!
I’ve just finished it, so more thoughts to come, but initially I’m sad that Tally was so focused on Zane and David that she didn’t see it was *Shay* whom she’d been following, who’d become jealous when Tally put the boys first, who who was her consistent center. Sister or girlfriend, whatever, Tally’s choice of David and Zane without even *considering* Shay is a failure of their relationship.
I’m glad that Tally wasn’t forced into something she didn’t want again. The Zane part was really sad, but I always liked David more, not that their love triangle was the focus of the book. I’m just happy with the way everything worked out.
Wow, that was a great ending. Zane’s weakness and death was so incredibly sad, but I’m glad she ended up wtih David, because he really is the only one who still sees the true, original Tally, and will help her be sane and herself. It’s weird, but all I was really worried about at the end was the possibility of Rustiness and what would happen to the wild, and Tally’s idea fixed that. You wrapped it up really well. So; David, sane, ugly *and* pretty, wild *and* city.
Oh, and you might want to know that I found a typo at the bottom of page 254:
“Those dimwits probably didn’t realized that her arms had completely fixed themselves…”
OhGodIamsuchacheater.
I haven’t read this one yet but oh!
Not Zane!
Zane?
Really?
Really, really, truly, and honestly?
He’s dead?
Oh man.
That stinks.
David’s great, but…I love Zane.
=(
**Hiding eyes from spoilage**
I have ordered Specials.
That is all.
*Attempts to leave page without opening eyes.*
This is very off topic, but if Dess or someone could charge up an entire car against darklings, it would kick ass. Then they could just plunder though tons of darklings. Or maybe they could even record like 500 13 letter words on a cd and play it really loud in the car, for extra power…
My copy is currently in Jacksonville Florida. *quickly switches to Amazon tracking*
D: I love Zane too man.
She just dusnt end up with David. theys just frends not boyfrend/gf. tally dussnot end up with anyone. shes just herself!!!!
i’m glad she’s “just herself.” maybe someday she’ll fall in love with david again…but she certainly needs time to mourn. and if she and david stay just friends, that’s okay too. i think their friendship will never be broken.
I liked Zane. He actually had to overcome guilt about betraying about the Smoke, and wanted to become normal. David was raised to know about the lesions, and if he hadn’t been, he might not have seen anything wrong with the operation. Zane defied everything he had been brought up to belive. I cried when he died.
i did too, amber. it’s amazing how wrapped up we get in the lives of fictional characters.
(“i did too” meaning “i cried”…didn’t mean to be ambiguous…)
This is slightly off topic, but I have some previsualizations for that onscreen adaptation for the Midnighters’ series the WB is considering that I’d like to share, and that potential producers will hopefully consider. Is there some forum around here?
Just…slightly…off topic
there’s no forum. I want one.
Even if there was a forum I doubt they would listen to us anyway.
Yeah, I’m pretty sure the WB wouldn’t listen, but *I* would. And one day they might even call me up and ask what I think. Maybe.
Hey, Fiona, send me stuff if you want. I’d love to see it.
I’m glad you guys like the focus on friendship rather than bf/gf action. That’s what I was going for. I got a lot of mail that was totally into the ‘shipping side of things—who Tally winds up with—and it made me wonder how she could (sort of) wind up with just herself.
OMG! i absolutely loved it.. I think the fact that Tally destroys 3 (4?) Hoverboards in one book was hilarious.. I got it yesterday and it took me about an hour to read… now i want more…
I know you’ve already discussed whether or not the cover model is supposed to be a special, but I think somebody (being an artist) should do their own rendition. If there are any artists on here, they should give it a try. Not really as a competition, but more to compare our mental pictures.
yeh. she dont look like no special to me.
Can’t look at comments until book arrives, but when’s that big news coming? besides Specials of course!
Good idea Sean. :q I’ll do one… but I really want to see what your ideas are. D: C’mon people, more fan art!
I must say that I’m proud of Tally (well, technically you but I’ll just give the credit to the characters…muhaha!). When I read books I usually place my self in the main character(s) place it just comes naturally and I think it makes the book more *real*. As I was saying before I so rudely interupted myself, I loved the ending and even though Zane’s death was devastating I’m acctually quite glad that he did, I know that must seem awful but Tally needed that reality slap to help her confess (and kick some ass) like she did. She never would have stayed in the wild with David if Zane were alive. So I am proud of her and I’m glad that she finally figured it all out for herself. I must say that I really disliked the New Smoke because of it’s simalarity to modern society. The old smoke was just more interesting and secretive and *speacial*. More like and family of rebels with a history. The New Smoke was to civil for my liking much better than Tally’s city of course but still so, so normal (not counting the 300year difference). Overall I loved the book and I think you wrapped it up very well.

Hi. My name is Dylan and i was wondering, i just saw an article online that said how it was a girl’s novel. Is it? I’m a boy, as seen by the name but i was wondering if you could please anwser whether or not your brilliant trilogy is for girls or guys or both? Please. I need an anwser or else i’ll be sad at school tommorow and hide the book and cover it. THanks
im a boy. i love it. its a boys books!
I have a question, since New Smoke merged with city, why are pretty operations still going on? Wasn’t that a big issue with the Smoke? Or is it ok because they aren’t limited in how the can look.
for one thing, my take on it was that the pretty operations weren’t including brain lesions. also, i don’t think anyone was *forced* to have any operations. they could have the operation or not, and they could look however they wanted. they didn’t have to look the way society told them they were suppoed to look. (example: david was there, even though he didn’t stay, and he never turned pretty.)
oh god, i read the spoiler section before i read the book. i would have read the book by now but the bookstore doesn’t have it in yet! i got the first two before the sale date. why can’t i do that now!? crap i can’t believe i read the spoiler section…crap
ZANE. GODF***ING…
Great book.
Better book – Zane doesn’t die and elopes with a mysterious character named Melissa…
But seriously. It’s been worth the wait.
Funny!!
ohmygoshiamsuchapervert.
i read all the spoilers before i read the book!
but no more spoilers for molly. oh no. no no no. no no.
ugh! why didnt my barnes and noble get it alreaddy!!!
oh well.
hopefully theyll call me…… one day……
back to homework for molly.
=(
hah, good thing I didn’t use my name or having two Melissa’s would be confusing XD
I loved Specials so much! Everything about it I liked, evrything. It wasn’t what I expected, and I still loved it more than I would have XD You did an awesome job!
I’m so happy!
I had this big thing written out, but somehow it deleted itself so….
Hey, Scott, this is rather random, but what is it like being an author? I mean, it must be hard, but…what’s it like? can you go out without people knowing who you are? I know that’s an odd question to ask.
I’m just really curious, but I don’t want to kill you here.I’m not trying to either.
Like, you’ve written quite a few books, and it’s just so cool I’ve always wondered about things like this.
XD sorry I could Type out a whole questionnaire, that was worded poorly, sorry, I’m just curious., sorry.
okay i just bought the book and i’m inquiering as to why this one is a hard back and why in the hell it was $18 and some cents?!?!?!?! none of the other ones costed that much!!! i’m a kid i’m not rich you know!!!!!! oh by the way i love it so far. and huggles you for the dedication to the fans and stuff.
much love!
I can’t believe Zane dies…
I like David, but he’s nothing compared to Zane. I can’t get over this.
So sad. I just keep remembering them togethor in the Pretties, staying bubbly… AHHH!!!
Yeah Zane was definitely cool, I’m going to miss him… Wait I’m going to miss them all the trilogy is over! Now I’ll just read them all again while searching for “Midnighters” until the last day comes out…and talk on here about all the awesome stuff ‘course =)
AAaaarrghhh! Tally’s nose is on the inside flap of Speacials! The entire time I was reading I was also looking up tally’s ‘special’ nostrils…
OMG, that was amazing. Honestly, I didn’t think you were going to be able to wrap this trilogy up, but you did… perfectly. BTW, I love the dedication. I thought it was perfect how Dr. Cable ended up coming through in the end. Yay her!! I actually teared up when I read about Zane. Crap, i just read Specials in 4.5 hours when i was supposed to be studying for my U.S. History Final… Think my teacher will accept a book report instead?
I loved it. I have just finished, not ten minutes ago.
I liked that Tally wasn’t despecialized, and is now the Wild’s teeth.
I hope you now make another book. It’s your own fault, finishing your trilogy’s like another book is to come. Your throwing me off my emotional balance. *Shows video of a mood swing*
So, I will add this to the collection, and stalk the web for your next book.
Thank you.
my thoughts on Zane:
!!Noooooooooooo!! *tear*
Thats all I have to say about that.
Now I’m off to go daydream an AU with him alive. lol
Ahhhh. Zane. That was NOT fair, but somehow I knew it would end up this way because I wanted it the other way! I have my own crush on Zane.
Thank you for a truly spectacular series. I have even gotten my non YA librarian friends into your books and they keep wanting more.
Cheers!
i really can’t get enough of any of your books–i’ve recommended them to my assistant and tons of students and i now have my monday night bar knitting group all reading them! i had just gotten my copy monday afternoon and brought it with me and they were all over it.
i think the comment about boy books vs. girl books brings up how dangerous to pleasure and experience it is to categorize–it’s not a boy book or a girl book just like it’s not a YA or adult book–it’s just a good book, straight up, no caveat required.
Oh my god I just finished this morning. Even shakey Zane was amazing. The ending was extremely satisfying, sir. A free world with limitations.
Somehow, I don’t think the spine will attract too many readers….an EAR? hmmm
good point lol. Guess the designer forgot bout that.
Or MAYBE the ear would attract readers. lol
Am I the only one who has unintentionally picked up the slang from the book for every day use? “That poem was totally bubbly-making,” etc. I even called my friend (who has not read the book) Brandy-la by accident. But that’s what good books do, pull you into their own reality. I’ve even been in a blue funk ever since I read the part about Zane dying. Absolutely brilliant book though, kudos to Westerfeld!
I thought the way this book was positioned was interesting compared to the past one.
Even before she had the cure when she was turned Pretty in Pretties, she still seemed to know something wasn’t right. When it came to Specials, however, she was completely unaware of what had been done to her brain. She believed she was fine, no, not just fine. She believed she was of a superior position. She was relunctant to believe that Zane, who repulsed her, was right about what had happened. That just seemed interesting to me.. Well, anywho..
I finished the book a few minutes ago, and I wish I hadn’t.
I don’t want it to be over ;_;
I want Zane back, not David.
Ehh ;_;
Ohhh and Dr. Cable really surprised me in the end o_o
** Reluctant ^-^;;
OMG! i haven’t gotten my copy yet. for me it doesn’t come out untill the ninth! i am eagerly waiting but come on form the spoilers i read what is so wrong with david. He thought tally was pretty even b4 she got the operation! and it was kinda ovious that Zane was going to die. what i don’t understand is what is up with Dr. Cable? isn’t she the bad guy who made Tally and the Cutters specials? i can’t wait untill i get it! i don’t know what to do with my self until then.
-jess
I WANT MORE INFORMATION ON DR.CABLE! what does she do????????????
and i so knew tally ws gonna end up with david, not zane.
DUH
those who have found really good spoilers, please post the site here!!!!!!!!
thx
kate
That was a really good ending to the series. I found though, that Tally’s “goodbye” letter seemed a little.. un-tally-wa. I’m not exactly sure why, it just seemed kind of stiff.
I liked how she ended up doing Dr.Cable’s job anyways. Not at such an extreme, but it makes me wonder if that’s exactly how Dr.Cable started out. Which is actually really frightening, because thinking of Tally being Dr.Cable’s “clone” persay, is just.. wow.
The one line that really hit me was the one while Tally is looking through the hospital rooms for any people still left, and you described the bit about the broken vase and the colorful flowers and glass mixing. If I had my own copy I’d go and find the line and quote it, but my friend so generously lent me her paper back copy that she got in a small bookstore in Canmore(Alberta, Canada).
She’s got a list of friends who want to borrow the book after. I think there are five of us that have read the first two, and are now hunting for a copy. I reallly want to get my own T_T
On a finishing note, the cover was amazing. I think I spent more time looking at it then I did reading. The perfection of it was simply stunning.
Thank you for such a good trilogy! *love!*
P.S @Kataqu: Certainly not the only one who has picked up on the slang. I’ve been using “-making” as a suffix to just about everything xD
I loved the first book!!!! It captured me!!!!!! Im glad that Tally stayed with
david they look cute together……. I havent read the second or the third but im getting them monday.Besides in glad Dr. cable died she was way too evil!!!! Well anyways gotta bounce!!!!!
Yes!! Got the book!
Must go read… Then I can read all of these posts and finally feel like one of the cool kids…
I loved loved loved this book. I actually felt tears come to my eyes when Zane died. I like David, but Zane was favorite boy charactor this entire trilogy. And Andrew.
I really really hope you will write more books about this world. Not just fromTally’s view, but Andrew or Shay or Fausto or Peris or… just anyone. I love these books!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EVERYONE: Tallywa isnt WITH david!!!!!! Theys just frends!!!!!!!
Oky. Feeel beter now.
I just finished Specials…
Amazing!
Now I’m going to go re-read all three
argh! Why Zane?
I’ve got to add, me and Sheena cried when Zane died too. We’re now going through a mourning period =P
As for David, well, they may not be together, but they’re repairing a relationship. I mean, Tally, as a special couldn’t bare to look at a pretty, much less an ugly, but now she has decided to go out in the wild and spend day after day after day with this guy. And that says a lot. So from the way I see it, in a way, they’re closer than they were, just in a different way.
I loved the ending. You did a wonderful job. But now I think you should tell Davids side of the story. That would be so cool and tell about the new Special Circumstances and the new smoke.
Thanks for writing so awesome.
Yes! Just finished…
Zane, Zane, Zane… I really grew attached to him. I’m glad that Tally and David ended up together in the end though.
The beginning was so weird. I guess because of the perspective, I wasn’t rooting for the Smokies anymore, I was rooting for Tally and the Specials. Occasionally, I had to change my thinking and look at the scene from a Smokie point of view. It was interesting.
Loved it, Scott! You ended it beautifully.
Ok, I haven’t even got the book yet, but just asking:
Does Specials have a tagline?
I mean, it’s like, ‘The final volume in the highly acclaimed series… etc.’ Tagline! TAGLINE! Is there one???
I love all the parallels to our world. The Specials who are the (more awesome) rich people of our world, the Pretties who are the Paris Hiltons, and the Uglies who are the people who think for themselves, but have bad self-images because they’re surrounded by the belief that they’re ugly.
All in all, this whole series was completely icy-making.
IM SO SAD. I loved the ending but you just cant END IT. There has got to be more! I want to know what happenssssssss afffftttteeerrrrrrr.
Poor Zane. It was so sad-making when he died.
It was all Shay-la’s fault. -sigh- I have no life Dx
Zane-la was my fav. Id pick him over David any day. David was more like admiration-giving but Zane and Tally just had that connection you know?
sigh. again.
You should make a sequel trilogy! ๐
Not shaylas fault! your wrong!!!!
I’ve just completed the series and I must say it was totally not what I expected….IT WAS BETTER!!!;D I half expected that Tally would ride off into the sunset with Zane being this happy perfect ending…until he died:'( but its great because only other authors would have had it be some perfect lil’ ending like that except for Scotto!! When I read the last page it kept me wanting more and that’s what all endings should be like!
If she never met Shay, none of that would have ever happened. But if she never met Shay the story wouldnt be right; it would be boring and not as fun to read. Im just saying that Shay had a huge influence on Tally. But yayyy Shay!
But I still love the story. Yayyyy. And Im glad it wasnt all happy-making at the end. I dont like happy endings. But this story just made you want to read more.
omg….. zane died?! SCOTT! How could you… sobs, i love ane. he’s such a strong character… i mean how many ppl cn overcome lesions halfway through on their own?
Speaking of throwing the book across the room! Scott, you gave Tally the choice of who she wanted to be with in Pretties! Why did you take Zane away from her and from us?! David was fine, but Zane was totally bubbly-making. I kept thinking that his death was all a fake to make Tally go back to deal with Dr. Cable; I couldn’t believe it when he was really dead. Totally NOT the way I wanted things to end up. If I hadn’t gotten totally hooked on the Midnighter series, I don’t think I could forgive you. My students pretty much want to lock you in the Special Circumstances dungeon.
AAAHH!!! Just finished it last night. ๐ I actually wound up buying two copies and recommending it to several people in the process, hehe. ๐ Now I’ll have to go about finding that paperback copy. However, the hardback is practically the same size as the paperbacks, so it’s not THAT bad. ๐
When Tally was walking through the hospital, looking at that broken equipment and wondering whose it was, I thought, “What if it’s not some crumbly’s and it’s really Zane’s?” So not quite right, but it was a close guess. GAHH!!! Moremoremoremoremoremoremore. Please?
Gosh. So much to say about it. I was SO rooting for Zane, and I cried. And I was going all Rustie, and attacking the cornor of my bed while I was reading. For some reason Tally as a Special makes my think of Ilyria, from Angel (Season Five). But with redness instead of blue. So I’m all having a good old time arrangeing my brain waves into watching my reading play out in my oh so icy mind. And then BAM Zane dead. And there’s wet marks in my book- well, dry now. But AHH! David is gnarley.. But something draws me toward Zane… And damn, with the Tally and her superiority complex. Loved it though.
One thing to say one thing only, YOUR GENIUS *Big HUGS*….I loved everything about the book…but of course parts were sad and parts made me appaled! thats not the point…a good book has the ups and downs…the real life stuff…good job Scott
Hey Scott! I love love love the Uglies Trilogy.
But Zane … dead?? I am forcing myself to believe it was a giant setup and he really is okay and him and Tally will get back together. Because I love Zane.
And I have two random questions …
1) How do you decide what suffix to give to people? How did Tally get “wa” and Shay and Zane get “la?”
2) Where does it all take place? What city did you base the Rusty Ruins off of?
Thanks for the amazing trilogy … I wish there were more!!!
~Michelle~
Kataqu I always use slang from these books. Like i have like my entire group of friends (who have not read the book) calling each other Korbe-wa and Katoni-wa its the coolest thing, and i use bubbly alot and icy now too, and i also use making as a suffixe for like EVERYTHING!
ok now i know lotsa peeps beat me to it (this was the first thing i read when i opend the book and i was tempted to post it before reading the book, but i couldnt help it) I really appreciate the dedication Scott. That totally rocks! When i read that i totally knew that i was one of those peeps that through the book across the room, lol, and i think that its totally amazing of u to dedicate that to us.
Now the ending i thought was great. Lots of closure, although another book would be nice, i dont really know where you could go with it. Unlike the midnighters series where i was freaking out for information (like many others).
Zane dieing wasnt that big of a deal for me honestly, i always loved david waaayyyy more than Zane. And this just may be me, but i didnt really like Zane from the beginning, i think he is kinda full of himself, he had a little bit of a “better than everyone else” complex in my opinion, of course that is probably just me. But if David died i would have cried for hours! Well that is it for now, but i will probably (knowing me) continue posting for a loooonnnngggg time like i did with the midnighters thread, lol. Thanks sooo much scott for a great ending to the most wonderful trilogy! that was a totally icy-making expeirience Scott-wa! ^.^
Scott-la!!! I’m so sad it’s ending there! What happens to David and Tally? Shay? Everyone else? I wish it was more than a trilogy.
Ok I was totally dealing with Zane dying. I mena I was dying inside but now I’m like crying! I loved Zane! Specials was amazing but I don’t like the end becuase:
a) Tally still a specail. I mean I cna understand bodilywise but the thing that made Tally Tally was that she always became herself again. And I mean she’s not toally Specail but shes not her, you know? So that just bothers me.
b) I didn’t wnat them to win. I know it sounds strange. I love the whole idea of the Specails and the bubblehead Pretties. Like not in real life or anything but I found it so fascinating. So I was really disapointed that it all ended.
I may die. I don’t want it to end! :'(
And Kataqu, I don’t use the way the speak much but I’m trying to. It amuses me so much.
I haven’t actually read the book yet but I’ve managed to spoil it enough for myself to know that Zane dies. I cant say that I ever really liked him all that much. It always seemed to me like he was just using Tally to help him stay bubbly and get the cure
I’m glad Zane died. I didn’t like Zane. I like David. Because…I don’t know I just do. And Shay annoyed me sometimes because she was super moody. But not all the time. I was kind of disappointed at the end, not because it was bad but because it was over. Such great books. On a slightly unrelated note, I thought being a Special sounded pretty sweet. Except the pointy teeth. That didn’t even sound scary, just…I don’t know, weird. It would be a very interesting thing to see if the books ever became movies. Which they should. But with a good director who won’t screw up the story like they always do to books. Anyway, I’ll definitely be posting more. By the way, I’ve been telling whoever I can about the series. I’ve gotten all my friends hooked. I’m so very proud of my excellent taste in fine literature.
Zaaaaaaaaaaneeeeee! I loved you! And now you’ve died!
I seriously didn’t believe you’d actually killed him though. Not til the end. And I didn’t think Tally would let him go so easily! I mean I wasn’t letting him go! Fie on her for not being as sentimental as me!
But I did really like the book. Pretties is still my favorite, but this was goooood. There were some words that I really loved. I meant to write them down but, er.. didn’t. Maybe I will on the readthrough. I loved the end. It was quite perfect. If she couldn’t be with Zane, at least she isn’t really with anybody. *realizes this sounds really quite mean for poor David*
I’ve made a family on Sims 2 (mind-sucking game) with Shay, Tally, David, and Zane in it. They’re in college at the moment. I think David’s crushing on Shay, though. *wink* First loves and whatnot.
Can’t wait to reread the whole series!
Yea! I am so happy the third book is finally out! I bought it, although it was in hardback–that speaks a lot. Trust me. Please, please, please tell me you’ll write more in a similar style!
http://happychyckwonders.blogspot.com/2006/05/bribed-with-book.html
OMG! Scott, how could you kill off the best guy in the entire trilogy (no offense to David)! It’s just wrong. I liked David and everything, but Zane was way cooler! I totally cried when Zane died. I knew that Tally and Zane wouldn’t end up together at the end, which was terrible enough, but did you really have to KILL him? But, it’s still an awesome trilogy! Keep working on HAPPY endings, though. Not bittersweet ones like Midnighters and Uglies!
This book came out yesterday for me. My boyfriend got it yesterday and I finished it earlier today. ((Inwardly, he also got it so once I was done he could read it. He’s 20, and he LOVES the trilogy!–and that boy is picky about what he reads, especially when it comes to the “Teen” section)) I have to say…
I absolutely loved it.
I adored all the twists and turns in the book, like how the Cutters were expecting a smaller version of the Smoke when they investigated New Smoke, but, to their surprise—it wasn’t small at all!! Or how everything has CHANGED in New Pretty. I like how there wasn’t the same consitancies as in the Uglies and the Pretties.
While I’m dissapointed Zane died, I’m not entirely suprised. Although, Shay, I could have slapped her were I Tally!! She’s so vindictive! –but that’s why you’re an awesome writer, Mr. Scott. You create characters the readers can connect SO STRONGLY with.
One question. While chasing the Smokies, Shay tells Tally not to worry, because after the mountains run out, it’s just an expanse of desert that the Rusties used to call Death Valley ((pg.147)). Am I mistaken in assuming that’s the Death Valley here in America?
And I love all your random words that I’ve never seen before…like niggling. ^_^ That made me laugh…and I was in German class, or maybe Chemistry, so, people looked at me weird.
I like how Tally was still a Special, but, she WAS Tally. Even Shay told her that she was still the same as when Tally was an Ugly. I like that. Whether I like her being with David, I’m not entirely sure. I can understand why, and everything, but…meh.
I love the way you ended the trilogy on a *PING* That made me smile. With your books, I generally have to cover the opposite page I’m reading so my eyes won’t go faster than my brain can compute!!
Now I must run off to get the Midnighters!!
–Tink
**consistancies**
Ali, i play the sims2 also! i have a family too, and tally and david are together of course! Zane was there too, and tally was in love with both of them, then i killed zane *hey i was just following the books! well actually i didnt like him from the beginning, i killed him off half way through specials, lol*
for those of you who dont know that the sims 2 is, its a game where you create little people and live their lives for them, send them to college, get them a job, live out their dreams. its awsome (i have been hooked since the third grade, now im in the 8th. so yea) but yea, sorry i figured i would explain. and also ask if anyone else plays, its a pretty small world, i wonder if anyone else plays tally and them in it as well. Scott have you every simmed? lol.

OMG! HOLY CRAP! that line in 354…. “It was Dr. Cable.” I FREAKED out! i was like HOLY CRAP! but that was pretty awesome how she helped Tally it was totally unexpected!
Oh and i am one of the few that didn’t cry when Zane died. I dont think i really liked him. I like David a LOT better! I hope Tally and David get back together (like bf/gf not just friends)
OH AND you need to write more about this story and setting and time! OOO a book from Davids point of view would be awesome OR Shay’s point of view! that would be awesome!
ok cooling down now……..almost controled……..ok im calm….
awesome book Scott!
Kate
WHAT THE EFF.
I havnt read specials yet..
but zane..ZANE UGHH ZANEE.
maann, That pretty much sucks.
hes my favorito.
no fair guys.
i think a movie should be involved.
and zane shouldnt have died.
๐
OMG KATER! a book in davids perspective would be totally dizzymaking! i would love that! of course i am still being patient for midnighters 4 5 6 7 8 9 & 10, although proof that those are going to be made is a little scarce…. hey a girl can dream cant she? lol. but i hope that they get back together too, david and tally. Scott, i know you have been busy with other stuff, but like are you like reading this stuff? cause i think that there is valuable feedback to be read from us fans to chuck our books across the room! lol.
Its pretty late here so i haven’t had time to read all the comments but i gotta say THAT WAS A FLIPPIN AWSOME SERIES. Wouldn’t change a thing. I liked the sense of closure at the end of the series too, nothing left to be described later. EXCELLENT WORK (as usual). *sidenote: you write any more midnighters yet? :P*
I definetly got made fun of a bit for carring these books around my school being a boy and all. Since to anyone who just glimsped the cover would think it was a girly book, but i gotta say a couple of my friends are going to be dying to read these so called “girly books”.
Anyway just had to say GREAT FLIPPIN JOB, AND THAT I OFICIALLY CONSIDER SCOTT WESTERFELD MY FAVORITE AUTHOR.
Can’t wait for “The Last Days” and maybe even some more Midnighters *wink wink* * nudge nudge*
Oh and 1 more thing my favorite thing about your books are those amazingly perfect action sequences. You manage to capture my attention perfectly everytime.
Anyone else but me amazed at this detail?
Unbelievable……keep writing, and i’ll definetly keep reading.
i’m proud of myself for holding off on reading specials until i finished writing my last paper for the semester… then i growled at everyone to leave me alone until i was done reading specials.
when i read uglies, i could kinda figure out how pretties would go, but i had no inkling about specials. distinctly crafted and un-cliche-d. although i know zane was tally’s overriding motivation, i’m glad he died because 1) the story would’ve been more cliche-d if he’d lived; and 2) he wouldn’t have made a good special anyway. at least, not without the specials’ lesions and i have the impression that his brain was too damaged for that set.
what i found interesting was the political commentary: dr. cable declaring war on a city that she knows is not responsible for any offensive action and waiting for the prime time to take over…. fortunately, there was a happy ending and she realized the error of her ways.
although i agree with the earlier comment that tally’s letter is a bit stiff and somewhat un-tally-ish, i think that her choice still makes sense, but i must admit i never envisioned tally as a superhero in the end, watching from a distance with sidekick david. i first compared her to batman, but what does everyone else think? is tally a superhero or is she just a relic of an old time hanging on (a description i guess would fit some superheroes, but that’s a different discussion)?
i’ have been reading all the comments and there’s so many!!!!!!!!!
i’ll go back to themlater but now i have to write:
I love how you ended the book but it’s so sad………..
I like how you described Zane….it had a lot of impact on me….
i think that how he ended up showed how much he went through to become normal
i also think that it was so sweet of him to care so much for Tally. Unfortunately, i also agree that Zane had to die for David and Tally to be together- as in a friendship even though i wish that someday they will be more than that because Daviv loved Tally even though she betrayed him so much.
I wish there was a fourth book just to read more about David…..i’m in love with his character.
Okay, Scott, seriously. We really are craving a couple of answers. How DO you decide which suffix to use? -wa or -la? Also, we have a raging debate going on as to the location of Tally-wa’s home city. Ben says LA because of the description of the desert over the mountain range. I say that LA is too far south since Tally is in the wild for so many days. I figure her city to be more in the Seattle area with Diego being San Diego. Please, please, please at least give us this crumb of information. One last thought… you keep writing; we’ll keep buying!
When reading Uglies I thought it was NYC with the coaster being Coney Island …. then in Pretties and Specials I thought it was in South America for some reason. I think that would be cool because we kind of assume it is in the US because they are so advanced, but the rivers and jungles and cliffs and stuff just seem like South American geography.
Rereading does miricles to me. Yesterday and the day before I was thouroughly distraught about verything that happend. (See my other post for problems I had with the book, despite it being one of my favs of all time). I’ve now like totally excepted everything. It makes sense and it fits, everything just works! Also its easier to see what state Tally’s brain is in when your not despretly clinging to everything that happens. So oyu notice evrything unSpecail she thinks, and such. So know I feel so much better. Now, I need ot read the last chapter and go read Pretties. All day I’ve been half wanting to get it over with so I cna read Pretties!
Michelle I have been spending the last two days adding -la or -wa to everyone I know so I’d liek to know too. My rule is tyr both and whatever sounds more natural do it. Sometimes you pick one but then change it when you say somehting else to them cuz its what comes naturally.
Kelly’s right about -wa and -la. It’s pretty much an ear thing.
But I just noticed that pretty much everyone is -wa except for Tally, and only Tally’s name has an L near the end. So maybe it’s always -wa unless there’s an L near the end already. (One exception, “Squint-la” in Pretties.)
Tabbie: You guys are both right. When I started the books, I was totally thinking the the Ruins were LA. But then I was thinking that global warming would have made the overall climate hotter by then, so Seattle made more sense. In Uglies she goes north, up into Canada, and yeah, in Specials she goes way south into Latin America. After all those days, probably well south of San Diego, though I did borrow the name. (There’s a lot of ‘Diegos’ down there.)
One thing that’s for certain, is has to be on the west coast—so I guess that the roller coaster could be Disneyland with the LA model.
my name sounds weird
with -la and -wa..
too many a’s.
i havn’t read the third book yet.
its out nowhere in the lower mainland..
but i pretty much spoiled the whole thing
i read pretties in a few hours
and uglies in about a few days when i was camping
..now that i know that zanes gone.
i can deal with it
and now im rooting for david.
I thought it was on the west cost too! cause u talked about them crossing death valley and stuff. So yea, and victoria, maybe you could say vikki-wa instead of victoria-wa, just an idea, i know some victorias hate being called vikki.
awww i’m just so sad the series is over!!!!it was an amazing book series i almost cried in the end i felt so bad for tally after zane died, but i always liked david better he saw tally for who she was no matter what operation she had gotten. scott, maybe you could write a book called littlies??? that would be cool i mean u could talk about tallys childhood or something, just an idea! thanks again for writing this amazing book series, i really really hope someone makes a movie out of it hope fully it wouldn’t ruin my idea of the book but people need to understand what you are trying to say about an image-obsessed society and how the government keeps secrets and things like that. also which one sounds better Mandy-la or Mandy-wa?????lol
whoaa! i just finished reading specials! it was awessome! i was sad when zane died, but i kinda like david better. i want there to be more! scott, you should totally write something from david’s pont of view.
also, i think it would be so cool as a movie. the part where tally catches the arrows reminds me of the matrix. which is cool. awesome special effects.
anyway, the book was so good! i loved it! now im gonna read it again. thats how much i liked it. =)
A movie would be THE coolest thing ever in the history of the universe! i would absolutely love that! i could help with the making of the movie, it would be absolutely amazing!
A movie would be amazing.
The only thing is … in Uglies they see the magazine and think that even the celebrities are ugly. So how would they cast all of the pretties – could Hollywood simulate the perfection and similarities between everyone?
And, three different people would have to play Tally and Shay. That could get kind of weird. Unless they gave the same person super makeovers, which seems kind of out there.
special affects!!!!!!!
yea michelle, i had tried to say that in an earlier thread, only my wording confused everyone, lol. I know exactly what you are saying, that would be really hard, especially when we dont know what real beauty is, or isnt for that matter. Everyones perspective is different, so it would be really hard to make not only the people, but the set as well.
Like when i think of new pretty town, i think of a little forest with tiki torches through it, then it comes out to a marble/stone sidewalk and a cobblestone street (kinda for the vintage look) and all of the “dorms” or watever pretties stay in are kind of victorian style, and the party spires are like high spindles with little lights. It may seem old style, but in my head its really high tech, even though the architecture is old school.
And im guessing Im like one of the only people who think it looks like that, but that is what my mind created, so how is it that the executives and directors are going to know how to create it ? i just hope that they let some of us help, even though that is not very likely. When i get into the film industry, this is the first movie i want to make.
O and when i see Diego, its really high tech w/ shiny surfaces, kinda like new york city only way more high tech, lots of chrome and screens everywhere! its sooo cool
Do you guys really think they could make a moive out of the series? Me and my friends talked about that and kinda decided it would be a bit weird…I think if a movie came out, I would avoid it just because I love my picture of everything too much. But I would like to see scenes of hoverboard chases. That would be awesome.
I am beginning to use random “pretty speak” words. I’ve said bogus, -making, and occasionaly -wa and -la when I’m talking. I have a friend who has read the books too, and we spent a few hours once trying to talk like we were pretties. The rest of the people thought we were a bit crazy, but does that really matter? (nope!)
Mmmm…I’m not sure I like thinking that Seattle is where Tally’s city is. Thats just a little too close to home for my taste. I don’t want my house to be a place that gets hoverboarded over on the way to Diego! Ah well, but it would make more sense to me to have the city be somewhere more like Portland, since the ocean that Tally goes by to get to the Old Smoke sounds like it’s part of the Oregon coast. It’s close to mountians, whitewater, and the climate seems right (minus any major global warming). Plus it’s a bit closer to Death Valley. Of course, I have no idea how fast hoverboards go so that might not matter.
I think Tally’s city is somewhere in California. Smoke sounds like it somewhere in Yosemite or another National Park that is in California. But I guess we will never know…
I agree with Janey, i think its in california, or possibly northern cali/southern oregon (ive lived in oregon, california, and arizona, and arizona is just too hot, not enough plants, & of course, no ocean)
Oh my god! I cried when Zane died. He did it all for tally who couldn’t stand to look at him and he risked everything…so sad. Great book though I would kill for another one.
uhh mann
im not even halfway done and i had the urge to read this blog
i am so upset with myself
but thankfully i didnt realy all of it soo hopefully i will forget about what i read.
*shakes finger at all who read this blog without reading specials*
Omg. ok. i’m soooo slow!! i just finished it. but i’ve been busy. i cant believe Zane dies!! i was seriously on the verge of tears. David is great…but Zane?? it really puts a dramatic affect on the book. And…shame on all of you who read this page before reading the book. Bye!
^ I know! How can you live, knowing what’s happened ahead of time? ๐
Doesn’t that just kill the book for someone? you guys shouldn’t do that naughty naughty hahaha *shakes finger along with korbe* tsk tsk
I’m almost finished with the book, I have around 50 pages to go.
But—wow. Amazing. This is one of your best, in my opinion, Scott. Fabulous writing, and I can really feel and connect with Tally. It has me conflicted at times about who to side with! The characters have grown & I like this part of the trilogy even better than the first two.
Your editor was slacking a bit at the beginning. I noticed a few grammatical errors. XD
Woah. So good. Deep sense of loss for never having another on from this series. I really hated Zane in the Pretties but I liked him in this book becuase he believed Tally could change from being a Special. So amazingly good. Also love the way the almost last word is ugly. Just so good. Making everyone read it.
Also I accidently called someone a bubble-head today. I think these would make great movies though…if only there was a way to ban people who haven’t read the book though. The Uglies would need to be regular people. And poor Tally, its not her fault the operation made her end up technically sorta but not really killing Zane. Awful.
Best books ever.
Oh and I loved the last letter, it felt complete.
ahhh i hope they make a movie!!!i would totally go crazy if they did!!!
that would sooooo rock, i want movies scott! and i loved the ending too. it was so great, loved it, especially how it was a ping and everything, totally icy ^.^
I’ve been thinking about that a lot too. I really think they should make a movie of the trilogy. If they had it done right, (without a stupid director) then it would be the coolest movie ever!! I sometimes want to be a screenwriter (or a person who makes up movie plots) just so i can base it on a book. and this is one of them!!!
bye!
I liked how the ending ended with her name…at the end of Uglies, the last word was Pretty – what Tally was about to becomse. The end of Pretties was Special – again what Tally-wa was about to be turned into. But in Specials it ened with her name…it just seems like she finaly found herself and everything ended right, with her being her, and not ugly, pretty, or special(mostly).
I kinda didn’t like how she was to be special though. I would have liked it better if she could go back to being an Ugly…but I doubt that possible with all those ‘wonderful’ Special improvements in her like the not-bone bones and such.
I can’t believe the Zane thing! He was the BEST for Tally, he helped her out of being a bubblehead (love that word), and he DIED. And she winds up being special! I hated that. She should’ve just gone back to her ugly self….but I guess she couldn’t have saved the world that way. I thought it was really cool what Tally did to Dr. Cable, though. That was awesome and she so got what she deserved. But if any character had to die, it should’ve been SHAY. I liked Shay in Uglies but I stated hating her in Pretties. She should’ve died, not Zane.
It was a really awesome book and I loved it. ANYBODY WHO IS READING THIS AND HASN’T READ SPECIALS SHOULD GO READ IT even though I have pretty much given everything away but it is a spoiler section after all.
Awesome book, man! I loved the ending, how Tally was able to become good again and still protect the environment (I’m a treehugger) and how she de-specialized Dr. Cable. Although, I did go into deep mourning when Zane died, and I dressed in black for a week.
I think there need to be more books, only in the style of Star Wars, they take place years earlier and tell the story of Dr. Cable before she was evil, since she’s kind of like the Darth Vader of the series. I think that would be interesting.
I also created a message board where people can come to discuss the books personally:
http://groups.myspace.com/13003303
It is on myspace, though, since I’m too poor to buy a site and not hi-tech enough to create one. So if you want to join and you don’t have a myspace account, you’ll have to get one >.
After finishing the book in a record 3 hours, I must say I loved it and hated it.
Loved the ending…David was the first person to make Tally “think outside the box” and I ‘m glad she ended up roaming the wild with him.
Hated the Cutters. They made cutting sound like it was “cool” and it’s not. Cutting sucks. I’ve seen my best friend screw up her life for a while because of cutting. I am glad that Tally stopped in the end, I just hope that easily influenced people understand CUTTING’s NOT Cool!
Other than that little issue…nice work!
I will NEVER forgive David for saying that Tally only liked Zane because he was Pretty. That was so baby-ish. I was so sad when I read the book. I was crying. I NEVER cry. Everyone who knows me knows that. WHY? That was sincerely depressing. I guess I get it. But, WHY???????????????????????????????????????????? ok pulling myself together.
I was like so totally sad when Zane died. Got to go- Neighbours is on- and then Home and Away!
Hi, i really think that there should be another series to this as everyone has been saying. These are THE BEST EVER books i have EVER read..(that doesnt really make sense, o well..) but not the point. I absolutally LOVE these books zane is sad, but im glad david is still there with her.. i read this book in one day, you can ask ppl from my school becuase i wasnt paying attention very well i kept getting in trouble. 2 of my teachers understood though and let me read because i got THEM started on these books. again i LOVE these books and really hope, wish, and am practically crying that theres not more! scott thank you for these really great books that you cant put down, and please consider writing more!!!
I knew that either david or Zane was going to die becuase she was in love with both or them deep inside. i am not hugely sad zane died it is just their last kiss tally was so cruel and pushed him away. I know she couldn’t help it or didn’t know like it was their last kiss but Zane died for here. Zane tried to be fixed so he could kiss Tally with out shaking. That totally sucks….. I just was so sad after you find out Zane dies and you look back at that kiss and how….blank zane was. it was not his dying that made me cry, it was the way tally and him last saw each other
Shannon: Hmm, I was sort of worried about the cutting thing. Yes, self-injury is a really bad spiral to fall into, and I wouldn’t want anyone to think it was cool. But I don’t know if the Cutters are that cool, really. They’re more scary to me. And psycho.
Still, it is Tally doing it, and we all like her. (And climbing walls and stuff is cool.) She only does it when she’s under huge stress, and gives it up as soon as she can. But in those first moments, yeah, she does get something out of it.
The thing is, the people I’ve known who cut all did it for a reason. That is, they really did get something out of it. So I didn’t want to present it in a dishonest way. In the school movies back in my day, someone would smoke half a joint, then listen to jazz and go psychotic and murder their best friend. The overkill made the message look silly rather than serious.
So what I was trying to show is that what you get out of cutting is pretty much artificial and dangerous, like the Specials themselves. I hope that comes across.
Also, it made sense to me that a book about surgery and self-image had to also include the darker side of how people mutilate themselves.
Tricky stuff, though. And I certainly welcome all comments.
I cant believe you killed Zane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is so horrible!!!!!!! Although, it was a little better than the uglies. i think pretties was the best. i miss zane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Did you plan out all the books in the trilogy? like what was going to happen in them….like, did you decide from the beginning that zane was gonna die?? and also, what book are you working on now? or are you even working on one.
Let my just say how much I enjoyed this book along with the others. I was really happy with the ending. While reading the book I was afraid that Tally was going to end up alone going out into the wild, but was really happy that David was going to be with her. Loved Tallyรขโฌโขs manifesto, although it would have been cool to see how everyone reacted to it, maybe we will? Great Book!
Livi: I didn’t actually know much about the third book when I started. I didn’t even realize that Tally would be a Special in book 3. Plus, I didn’t invent Zane until I’d started Pretties. Which brings me to:
EJ: Who knows if I’ll write another Uglies book? Not me.
i really liked the part at the end, the message to the others. About how they were the new special cercomstance.. But i really want to read another book! i have read all of them in about a week. Along with “So Yesterday”..
I want tally so re unite with the others, and i want david and tally to be together :)..And im still thinking i would REALLY like to see a movie made out of this!!!
Zane should’ve survived! He’s so cool! David sucks..
Zane should’ve survived!!!!!!!!!!!! Omg! I love Neighbours- does anyone here watch Neighbours?!?!
To Scott:
Your books rock! But you should ahve a fourth book- about a love-traingle between Tally/Shay/David. I want David to choose Tally- so they can both get LOST. I hate David, Peris and Shay. Zane was the only person who actually opened-up Tally to the real world.
Ooops, I wanted David to choose Shay by the way, not Tally! He.. He..
I would just like to tell you, that if you do start a movie, Natalie Bassingwaighte would be a great actress for Dr. Cable. She’s really talented- and she has really refined looks, so she’ll look pretty much like a special.
i just finished reading specials, and I must say i really liked the ending. I had read the spioler zone a while ago before i read the book because it was not availabe in the lower mainland yet. Once i found out about zane’s death i dealt with it and when i read the book it wasn’t as much of a shock to me, Wich is good. I really would like to read another book though! I want Tally and David to be back together, They sort of left things up in the air.
I also wanted to know on the book covers, Who was on them? I thought on the second cover it was Tally and Zane but i realized that zane had black hair. Are they all supposed to be Tally? on Uglies Specials and Pretties?, Just wondering :), And i also think it would be REALLY cool for a movie to be made of the trilogy!, to see what the charachters looked like and what they would be like.
I cant Believe It!!!!!
I wasnt going to look but i was to tempted i am not finished w/ specials yet and i cant beleive it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ZaNe was the best
He is Better than David
Awww….Im sad now…why ZANE!!!!!!
why did you have tally and david go off together at the end? did you know you were going to do that when you started specials? so are they like just friends now? have you thought about what david and tally do after the end of specials? besides just being the new special circumstances.
ya i think making a movie of the trilogy would be a really good idea. just dont make really stupid like ella enchanted which was way different than the book. if you had a good director it would be really good. what is your favorite book in the trilogy? why?
I just read the whole book today, and was ready to send you an angry email, Scott. I mean, how could you kill Zane?! You could have had him come back saying he didn’t really die and then him, Tally, and David could be one big happy family. =D No, but really, I’m surprised that you killed one of the main characters. Zane already went through so much, and Tally loved him the whole time… How could you? And when and how did you decide to kill him?
Sorry if I’m repeating some of the stuff others have said (I only skimmed through, didn’t bother reading through 100+ comments). The books are pure genius, and you, Scott, are a genius for writing them. They’re not like anything I’ve read before and just seem to suck everyone in! Anyway, despite the reaction to Zane, I love the books very much and wouldn’t change anything about them. Except maybe not kill Zane. XD I’ll stop rambling.
watch out scott I think some of the readers might hurt you for killing zane….LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU!!!!! A READER JUST CHUCKED A BOOKMARK AT YOUR HEAD!!!!!
i was crying when zane died but when i got to the end i was so mad!!! that ending wasnt an ending the letter didnt sum everything up PLEZ PLEZ PLEZ!!!!!! SCOTT WRITE ANOTHER PLEZ JUST FOR ME PLEZ!!! i was so mad i want more books i read all three in a day yes one day i so sad that now it over plez write another one
i want tally to be with david i mean how shallow they were in love in the first book but then she was pretty and too good for him and just blew him off i mean that was really low i didnt want zane to die but i didnt want them to be together she should be with david
first of all i loved the books but the last ones ending was horrible. Sooooo open ended. Why couldn’t Shay die instead of Zane or something?Zane was one of my favorite characters, kinda like how Dumbledore died in Harry potter. I demand u to write another book to it.( jk,actually asking very nicely) Also the picture on the cover freaky lookin, no offense. But i really enjoyed reading ur totally bubbly. U no David is a really bad match for Tally. well she was good for him when she was in the smoke. Zane was tally’s soul mate so nice he was.
I didn’t like the end of Specials… it was way too open-ended! I like to know what happens at the end…oh well, what can i do about it? I would like to see him write a fourth book… or another trilogy to accompany Uglies, Pretties and Specials. I really hope that he does, I know I would read it! Why did Zane have to die?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Am i the only one sobbing? That was not bubbly-making! Zane-la should live on!! Scott, WHY? I was savoring every word that was in the third book, until Zane-la died! I like David, but Zane-la was so better for Tally!!!
I’m just going to be open. I hated how the ending of Specials was so open,(or random), but I did love the rest of the book and the ones before it. They were tatolly bubbly. I suggest, no I DEMAND that you write another book to the series. I also DEMAND that it could be the child of David and Tally. I just thought that was a way to keep the series going. And first of all Shay’s self centered not tally, it was Shay’s fault that Tally was a smokey, it was Shay’s fault that Tally was a pretty, and it was Shay’s fault tally became a Special. I have other reasons to but I don’t feel like putting them.
Sorry for Alli’s mistakes in grammar!
Rae-Rae is my ex- friend
Soory Alli!
Alli-la is in my book club and will need to repeat a year of grammar!
Rae-Rae I am sitting next to you!!!!
I know!
DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alli-la isalways repeating herself, and spelling things wrong!
Hey KimmyS and Alli-Boo-Boo! Good luck at your band concert!
ok rae-rae and alli-boo-boo SHUT UP!!! you guys want to talk to each other do it on msn!!! this is a blog for the uglies trilogy! not “good luck at your band concert” or “rae rae im stitting next to you!”. you guys are so annoying!!! get a life!!!!!!! or msn
Wow. That was a good book. The whole Zane part was sad. I cried. But at least David was still there. I kinda figured they’d end uo together in the end. Time to make a movie. lol
oops. i mean *up*
Littleliu what kind of name is that, anyway we were just having fun, I can tell you are the kind of person who has no friends never went ourside, and lives with 36 cats.
i am allerjic to cats….and grammar because I cannot spell,….one more thing to Alli-boo and rae..do you have two personallities????
FYI Littleliu, we did leave comments on the book, IF ONLY YOU LOOKED AND TOOK TIME OUT TO READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Geez I hate people like you!
Um… Jillibean, what do you mean?
* I meant what are you trying to say?*
This is random, but did you know that the name Zane means “Beloved”
Hmmm…
So does the name David. Thats funny. *goes back to looking up Uglies character names on babynames*
Wow, that is pretty interesting. Was that a coincidence, Scott?
That’s so cool that Zane’s and David’s names both mean the same thing. Wow, I must be pretty smart . . .
Except it was kinda by accident.
Thanks for catching that.
We can always pretend that it was planned like that :]
I was surprised that the name Zane was even listed and defined – I’d never heard it before. Same with the name Fausto (that one means lucky).
Okay, I have way too much time on my hands if I am looking that up…
yeah, that is cool that they mean the same. scott, you really should write another book. that would be soooo cool!!! and, i may have already asked you this…but, what book are you working on right now?
oh and umm…alli, rae-rae, and littleliu….its kindof interesting to hear you guys fight. i’m on both of your guyses sides of the argument. (just to let you know) bye!
I think that that could be an interesting side thing in one of your books (kinda like hunters deal with the name popularity rankings or w/e) it could be like someone who has a name dictionary or something and knows what different names are. but yea like it would be kinda different. just an idea of course, figured that it might be nice for a fan to throw an idea out there every once in a while even if its a kinda strange idea. lol. But yea, that is totally weird that zane and davids names meant the same thing, like totally strange making! well anyways im going to go, i have a cold and my mom is yelling at me to get off the computer *tear* later!
Hey Scott — I’m finishing up work on my Masters of Library Science with the goal of becoming a YA librarian. I stumbled onto Uglies on accident (I have seriously considered writing my thesis on a content analysis of post-apocalyptic/dystopian YA novels published since 2001, so it was right up my alley!) and have just loved this series. I finished Specials today on a plane and was just beyond delighted with it. You managed to handle everything really well – there’s no going back, and there’s no easy answer: but everyone finds a place in the new-New World Order. VERY clever! (and I was rooting for David, just for the record.)
I was also quite interested in the earlier debate on the site about if the series are boy’s/girl’s books…we debate that quite a bit in library services, as I am sure you can imagine. I think a lot of the concept that it’s a “girl” series is because, simply, Tally is the main character. Frankly, there’d be a lot less debate about it if Zane were the hero. That’s where librarians and teachers have to help perspective readers think outside story conventions.
Oh, and by the way, PEEPS? What a delicious, nasty little horror novel. Quite the accomplishment. Please tell me the surprise is a sequel? ๐ I look forward to much more YA work from you, and incorporating your work into my library someday soon! (and Justine is great too. What fun the “Magic or Madness” trilogy is. Aren’t you guys just the ultimate trilogy couple??)
Ooh, and I see you will be at ALA! I am DEFINITELY stopping by! Will you be on a panel, in booth? Yay!
O i forgot to say i had finished peeps awhile back too! thanks for reminding me angie. Peeps rocked! for those of you who have not read it yet, the only thing i can tell you is to go out to a book store or library near you and GET IT! ok thanks, ive just done my little advertising thing and im through! later
Scott รขโฌโ I finished Specials about a couple days ago, and after finally reading through this thread, I must commend you for the excellence you achieved with it.
Totally bubbly-making.
The ending was completely perfect. Open-ended, with hope for more but the main issues were resolved and thatรขโฌโขs all that matters. I didnรขโฌโขt really know what to expect with the final book, other than Tally would be a Special Circumstances Agent (duh). I think I liked this one more than the first two. But I canรขโฌโขt be too sure yet. I need to reread them all to make a final decision.
On a final note, Davidรขโฌโขs name sounds really weird with one of the suffix endings that the characters use (-la; -wa). Is that to totally accidental or to separate him from all the รขโฌลbubbleheadsรขโฌย?
Canรขโฌโขt wait for your future novels. All of them so far have not disappointed and kept me up into the wee hours of the night. ๐
hey scott, on the subject of your really big news that you refuse to tell us but continue to tease us with, would it happen to be a new midnighters book? like would you just so happening to be writing another and ur publishers wont let you tell us yet?? If we guess right will you tell us?
rae-rae, like skicofintic, yes, I know I spelled that word wrong but you know what I mean, like that ugly dude that talked to himself in the Lord Of the Rings
While we’re on the subject of “the big news”, Scott, could you at least tell us when you’ll be able to tell us?
i finished the book like a month ago while it was still april and i didn’t see a tagline. did i just skip over it or is there not one doesn’t anybody else realize this?
the tagline was the final book in the uglies trilogy or w/e but yea the publishers decided it was the best way to go *grrr, scott didnt really have a say in it*
Yeah, sorry about that lame tagline.
As for the “big news,” I can’t tell you exactly when I can tell you, and I can’t tell you when I can tell you when I can tell you, but I can tell you that I probably can tell you some time in June.
And that it will be worth the wait.
Having a great time in Madison, but must sleep now.
well that was quite the tounge twister scott! lol ^.^
I just found out about the whole series less than two weeks ago and finished one right after another in about a weeks time. They were all so good it was hard to put them down. The first and second books left you completely hanging – wondering what would happen to Tally next. They were unlike any teen novels I have ever read. I commend Scott for writing about a topic that not many authors would dare to address. I found myself taking a closer look at what beauty really is and the price that people really pay for “beauty.” I have to admit I was sad when Zane died in Specials, but his death was in a sense essential to the end of the triology. I liked how the book ended but it still was kind of open-ended and it seems as if there is room for another book in the series, but not. Anyway, I really enjoyed the books and would recommend them to anyone.
P.S. What was with the -wa and -la at the end of the names in Pretties? It seemed sort of random
it was scotts slang (there is a link to an article in a previous thread discussing scotts amazing ability and proccess for coming up with the awsome slang he uses in his books) i think its random but totally original and fun, if you get into the books enough u might find urself using them (i know that i did, and a couple other people did too) well jen hope to see u around the blog!
June!, my my..thats tomorrow:)..
muahhaha, I can’t wait.
Hmmm…According to the blog time, it’s already June! *waits for news* And that also means that people have been putting comments on this page for over a month.
Can you say…”We might need a life?” :]
Anyway, I think the -la and -wa are random things made up for the book. So yes, random! But addictingly fun to add onto names.
This book was graphic! I loved it, but reading the details about Tally cutting herself made my skin crawl.
I didn’t like Tally calling Shay “boss.” Maybe because I never really liked Shay. heh.
Is it horrible of me to say I’m happy Zane died? I really wanted Tally and David together ever since Uglies, and I bet you anything that David is incredibly good-looking, but just from Tally’s distorted perspective, he’s not.
Tally + David = 4eva
Btw…if Specials is ever made into a movie, can I direct it?
Damn, you better write another one… I love the series, and I hope you come out with one of those random “Surprise sequels”…
“Can you sayรขโฌยฆรขโฌยWe might need a life?รขโฌย :]”
I think not! I mean, what else would I do at school for two hours during computers class? XD
And yes Scott, it is June… And you said June… =P I think that you might get very sick of all this “big news” talk, but you are just killing us! (Curiousity did kill the cat…)
“Can you sayรขโฌยฆรขโฌยWe might need a life?รขโฌย :]รขโฌย
Hey! i have a life, it is just filled with books and blogs! o and mushrooms!
O and fiona! there is nothing wrong with being happy that Zane died, i know i was. David rocks! i love david soo much, he saw the true beauty in tally, zane saw a pretty face and ugly tales! David is sooo much better, no doubt about it!
Heehee, I was happy when Zane died too. Not like I was happy to see Tally be so sad and all that, but mostly because she didn’t have any excuse to not end up with David. Hah!
“…he saw the true beauty in tally, zane saw a pretty face and ugly tales!”
Perfect. I can’t think of a better way to say it :]
I totally agree with Korbe, Lauren, and Fiona. David really did “take on 5 million years of evolution” when he told Tally she was beautiful. Zane seemed like kind of a pacifier for Tally, just that she needed someone to be with who would love her like David did. No, not did, does! I totally hope Scott comes out with a surprise sequel. I’m also glad that Shay got de-specialized. She seemed to like being Special too much and used her specialness just to show off. But maybe I just don’t like her! Shay was okay in Uglies, but in Pretties and Specials, she was totally not understanding of Tally. Anyway, I loved Specials (cannot decide if I liked Uglies or Specials better) and you have to come out with a sequel, Scott!
A pacifier, perfect description of zanes place in tally-wa’s life! He was just there to replace david, though it wasnt a totally consious desision to tally, he took the place of david in tallys sub consious. She had fallen in love, and her brain was messed with, but the love was still there, though her brain told her he was not to be loved, so her brain found another outlet for her emotions the surge had covered. Just like a toddler/baby clings to a pacifier after the breast feeding. awsome job catherine-wa!
p.s. for some reason uglies was my fav book in the series by far. Just dont know y, they were all amazing books!
I always wanted Tally to go back with David but in the end I was so attached to Zane i cried in the middel of class. I miss Zane ๐
I feel so incomplete now that the book is over. It was just so darn good ๐
I waited 5 months to read Specials, after reading Uglies, and Pretties. I read Specials in one day…the whole book, in one day. All I have to say is it ended perfectly. I couldn’t have ended it any better, but Zane dying was sad. But Zane had to die so Tally could go with David. I am very sad that the series has ended, but I have enjoyed it so much, and I hope all of you have enjoyed it as well.
Specials was fantastic. I loved how the tone of the series as Tally herself continued growing darker as a character.
I Loved Spacials it was sweet! I enjoyed the series alot and thought they were very creative. However I was upset that Zane died, although I always knew Tally and David belonged together. Overall this was the best series I have ever read and they should make it into a movie aswell.
Is there anyone who doesn’t want this to be made into a movie? I mean, I don’t think that they would get it quite right. Books like that take a lot of imagination and different people usually have their own point of view. Meh, maybe it’s just me though.
I’m kind of split between wanting to make the trilogy. It would be really awesome I think, but I just love the images/personalities of all the characters in my head. Besides, movies always leave out stuff that they think is unimportant, but actually really adds to the movie. I think that if Scott wrote all of the script, he would obviously know what to keep in, so it would be a great movie then. Except for the actors’ looks. The casting people could really screw that up. Am I getting confusing?
Hey, i agree with Korbe. me and my friends started to use the trilogy’s slang at school and nobody knew what the heck we were talking about! and its weird though, because even before i read the books my cousin always called me “livi-la” and then there it was all the time in pretties. Also, it would be sooooo cool if they made a movie!! but, it probably would get messed up and we’d all be complaining on the blog about it. Oh! and just to add to the conversation (whoever was talking about it) I wasnt necessarily happy that Zane died, but david is okay. I like both of them. Zane was good because Tally was so happy with him…and he was okay with david and the smoke and stuff. but, David was awesome…and he saw Tally for who she was. ok well i know i’m being boring, and no one is gonna read this!!
bye!~
does anyone know who the model is on the cover of specials??? her name???
I have no idea, and im not sure scott is still reading this thread, so u might want to try posting on a newer thread. She is really pretty though, and so is the girl on the cover of uglies (if you look at them, they kinda look like the same girl in a way, i wonder if they are, you never know with computers nowadays)
when I read that Zane died and i was in school io started bawling my teature asked me if i was okay and then got really pissed cause it was over a book
Kataqu i picked up the slang to it pisses all my friends off no worries
Did you know that in Germiny (sp) Zane means 10?
Sorry, that was sorta out of nowhere
what awards have you recieved
Caitlin, I beleive that the German word for 10 is not “zane”, but “zehn” (It’s pronounced like Zee-en, sort of. It’s been a while since I’ve taken German…)
“when I read that Zane died and i was in school io started bawling my teature asked me if i was okay and then got really pissed cause it was over a book”
Lame teacher.
>.> look! I have a comment number! I’m 215! Thats cool.
no offense to scott but i HATED the ending omg, all that leading up… then zane dies and tally doesnt seem truly happy, she is just choosing the lesser of 2 evils, i hated it. BAD BAD ENDING
I hated the ending too, Zane should’ve lived. David deserved to die.
Go Littlelui! I hate Rai-Rai and Alli-boo!
To Scott:
Where did you get your ideas?
Okay dude…I found Uglies one day when I was in Target, because I had money I wanted to spend >….
Hmm, I found it in a discount area, it looked pretty good- so I bought it. ๐
Lol, I was just remembering Tally and Zane’s kis.. sad..
Izzy, you can shutup now okay? So can Liu, Alli-Boo-Boo and Livi.
Brave Scott, Bravo. An excellent book. So naive, so brave.
I hate’yer Korbe!
๐ ๐
:{
Zane and Shay, Tally and David. Beautiful characters them all..
Tally: Hillary Duff {world known Hilary}
Shay: Jennifer Aniston {world known Aniston}
Zane: Mark Ruffallo {world-known Ruffallo}
Fausto:Pip Sunderson {Made up- hehe}
Peris: Kory Launchester {“}
David:Mark Cableton {“}
Maddy: Kate Ritchie {Home and Away}
Dr. Cable: Susan Flannery {Bold and the Beautiful}
G’day, M’name is Elle and I read all three books when they first came out. Zane ROCK! ๐ HE DIED.. ๐ *************
Omg Korbe! ๐ so mean! But i don’t care! ๐ I’m happy as can be!
Zane has a huge adams apple! It is so ew!
Well bye guys.
Guys-a lets talk about Zane-La, Shay-la, Tally-wa and Peris-wa? Is it Peris-wa? Bye Elle!
I cried when Zane died, i cried alot through the book, i cried over the fact that i finished the book! LOL. I’m a very emotional person so it doesn’t really matter.. i cry all the time LOL!
I liked David the most … i don’t know why … but the point is i did!
It’s a great book but i don’t understand why it had to end. LOL Jokz.
Keep up the great work, best book i’ve ever read and believe me i wil read it again..
GTG bye!
Hannah ๐
hey you guys i didnt write that stuff, i dont know who that was but plz dont be mad at me! seriously that wasnt nice whoever that was, but you guys plz dont think it was me, cause it wasnt!
Hello guys
My favourite character is Shay.
“I liked David the most รขโฌยฆ i donรขโฌโขt know why รขโฌยฆ but the point is i did!”
– Woot for the David lovers. We should start a club! :] He was my favorite boy-character.
“Tally: Hillary Duff {world known Hilary}”
– I don’t think Hillary could play Tally. Tally has too much personality. Hilary doesn’t. And don’t be offeneded by that if you like her, I just think that she always plays the same character in movies. One that doesn’t have much personality. . .
Haha! comment 237! That was my locker number in 6th grade! I am loving the little comment numbers!
Aw, lame, I wasn’t #237. Oh well.
“Anyone who uses those slang words are gay.”
– . . . That is deeply bogus. People who don’t use the words are total fasion-missing bubbleheads.
Okay, and the person pretending to be Korbe-wa should really stop. Seriously.
Thanks lauren-la, I dont take kindly to impersonators. And yea, i agree, u r a total fashion missing bubblehead if you dont like the slang! lol.
Zane dies. i cried and through the book acorss the room. no lie. i [heart] Zane. i was hoping so much that something crazy would happen and he really wasnt Dead.
But alas. he was. tear
but the book was really good overall. i loved that Cable saved Tally from being changed back. that was way cool.
Go Korbe!
Whos your favourite character.
Guys, can you please delete those mean posts?
I’m sorry for Korbe, Izzy and Livi.
Also Lauren, Alli and Rae-Rae!
And Lui!
thanks cilly-wa! ^.^
Thats okay, that storker is total fashion-missing.
Thats okay. Your my friend right?
Want to have an Online Specials club?
Everyone on this post can be in it.
Ah I just read my post from last night! I wrote a much longer post than that! >..
dude! I have no idea why they are posting like that ๐
B4 i finished the book ( the specials) no wait, b4 i started the book i read sum of the spoiler zone n yeah … im pretty dumb!
But the book blew me away … can’t really think of another way 2 put it lol!
Hannah;)
cilly-wa you are sooo my friend, and i will soooo join your club! that is wicked awsome! i like being part of clubs, its fun! lol. so yea i love specials!
Online specials club sounds kewl Cilly-wa.
I luv clubs so yeh… Such a kewl idea!
Hannah ๐
Hillary Duff as Tally and Jennifer Aniston as Shay? No offense, but that is a really bad idea. Jennifer Aniston is around 20 years older than Hillary Duff and Tally and Shay are meant to be the same age!
Okay so far members of the Specials Supporter group are:
Cilly-wa
Hannah-La
Izzy-Za
Korbe-wa!
woot!
Lauren-la would totally join a Specials Supporter Group :] Clubs are fun!
Haha, all the people in the group have a -wa or -la in their name. Hmmmm I’m thinking thats not a coincidence ๐
…Does anyone know what time zone this board is set in? It always confuses me when I see the date/time – It’s somehting like 18 hours ahead of me…
Wow I haven’t been here forever! (Formally posted as Kelly). So here is what I think of issues discussed:
Pretty-speak: Hello what type of bogus bubblehead doesn’t speak it? I say bubblehead and bogus and -missing, -making abotu 20000 times a day. Less so with bubbly and icy. I say htose more hwen writing stuff. And -la -wa names forever!
Movie- Would love beyond anythign else. But would invlove serious special effect for Pretties and Specials. I’d be a bit worried thye owuld make it look too digital. But if they can make it look right I’m all for one!
Zane vs David- ZANE! I totally understand why people support David. When I finished Uglies I made up 100000000 things where David rescued Tally and such. But after Pretties sorry I’m in lvoe wiht Zane. The whole bit where he tlaks baout how soemthing is wrong with pretties stile my heart. I positivly hate Tally for pushing him away. Heartless special-head. But now that I’ve had lots of time ot reflect on the book, I htink David and Tally at the end is more of a friendship thing. I also bet that if there was another book (HINT HINT SCOTT!) she’d still be really upset that he died.
Shay- Well this isn’t so much an issue but I figure I’d put my comment. Shay is very curcial to the seires. I lvoe her and I hate her. I HATE the whole boss thing. That was bogus. The biggest thign that stands out for me when it comes ot Shay is that when I fisrt finished Pretties, I was really worried baout her. Shay had gone insane. So it was nice she went back to normal (not insane, pretty-headed or special-headed) at the end.And Shay gets with Fausto after Specails. Definatly.
O yes and I’d love to be a member of the specails
supporter group! ๐
Lauren me too! The itme zone is sooooooooo strange! Just so this has SOME refrence to Uglies/Pretties/Specails, I don’t really think of Tally’s city as in an actual place. But the fact she goes to Canada in Scott’s mind makes me HAPPY! SMOKE IS IN CANADA Y’ALL! Hehehe go Canadians. Um yes so back to my point, if I placed her city anywhere it would be on the west coast of the US, southish. I have no idea where anything in the US is excpet Alaska, New york and Flordia so thats the most acurate defination of my mentla placement.
Hey Korbe-wa, are oyu ever coming bakc ot the midnighter’s board? (god I had to read 350 somehting ocmments before i posted naythign there). I like your insight! I seem to have developed an addictio nto this board and that… hehehehe. O well, I odn’t care I love it.
Hey guys. Specials are cool.
Kell-wa, i might if i have the time, but i dont have a week set aside to read all the posts i missed just yet. Im still in shock that it got all the way to lik 390, almost 400 soon! that is sooo awsome *as i posted last night, or morning for some of you peeps*. but like it might be a couple of days before i do. O and for those of you who dont read the newer posts i highly suggest you join Michelle-wa’s forum, the link is on the thread about quiting ur dayjob for writing! ^.^ lata
Wahaha I know what you mean. I spent liek 2 hours reading all the posts there. Yesterdya here. People post too much. Which I sya then post 2-6 commentso n both boards. Ok now I better say something envolving uglies… Um hmmmm. I’m in midnighter mode so this will be hard. Ok here is a sad story: My friend Jess won’t reread SPecails. She tired but got too depressed baout Zane. I feel so sorry for her becuase its such a good book. There, now this ost semi-belongs on this board.
Everyone should cheack out Michelle-wa’s forum. It is amazing! Go to the Decade of Freedom Thread, there’s a link nearish to the bottom.
Here, I’ll post the link to the forum thing:
http://michl.proboards76.com/
It’s so fun. And quite addicting! I love it!
ITS SOO MUCH FUN. the forum is great. everyone should join. you will love it!
ITS EXTREMELY BUBBLY! Seriously it’s the best!!! Not that this isn’t fabulous
Yes, but the blog only gives you a number, not a bubbly title like littlie. Not that littlie is incredibly bubbly. haha.
I haven’t read specials yet, but I have read Uglies and Pretties and They were both AMAZING! I was at the book store yesterday but I only bought pretties because of lack of cash and I thought it would take me more than a day to read it. It didn’t. I love the books to death and I’m glad i bought them and didn’t just check them out from the library. Tally is an amazing character and you really have done a wonderful Job Scott.
Wahoo I’m a special now on the forum thing. SCOTT! COME VISIT OUR FORUM!
OK I only read a few of the things said up there so I’m probably WAAY off topic but seriously, Zane? Dead? NOOO! (haven’t read it yet BTW way ’cause it’s taking AGES to arive i Aus. Hehe. But I love spoilers. I always read the last chapters of books when I’m about halfway through =P I finished reading Pretties today and I was like “OMG!”
Now back to the important part.
Zane dies?!
It should so have been David!
Sorry. I didn’t mean that.
It should so have been Shay!
I loved Zane!
Not David!
I promised myself that I wouldn’t read the end of Specials while I was still halfway through but it’s looking like I might have to =P
But is Tally still a Cutter? ‘Cause that is so creepy! I really hope that Specials gets here soon or I might just go crazy.
so i have finished reading the specials, i think i shed a tear because of happyness and sadness, yes books can have that effect on me ; )
its saddening that there is going to be no more books, ekk. But i’ll read them over and over, yes i will. This is like the first series of books that i have kept up with, and it was worth it.
I thought she a David are better when they are together. I really liked him I also like Zane but I thought that Tally was better for David. The ending was good to but I am sad it ended. But hey this is my 5th time reading the pretties I have to wait to get the specials back from my friend.
I was looking at the tours and I noticed that Atlanta wasn’t on the spot to visit!!!! HELLO!!! why not us…WE HAVE PEACHES!!!!!
Hahahahahahaha. Peaches are good. Scott isn’t going everywhere.
hahahahaha…gets me every time, jill-la……i like it, I mean so bubbly! and fruity, and rad, so uber cool no one can touch it…..uber, that is such a cool word, rpymes with guber. anyway i am making a demand that you make another book about the specials and the ugly series becuase I have the atority to do so!!!!!! well thank you for shopping at that cool word mart, bye bye!!!!
I cried. You don’t know me, but I NEVER cry. Except when I used to get shots…before the amazing therapy of the Uglies trilogy…anyway. I cried. Zane died. That rhymed. Anyways…no, seriously, my friends and I all speak in pretty-talk now even to our creepy Dr.Cable-ish principal who we think drags people into the back room for the pretty operation. or at least the brain lesions.
Yeah, anyway…*tries to stop sobbing* you must write another book. or at least a SHORT story. give us more tally please please please??? *whining pretty voice* haha my baby sister is named Tally….my idea….and she has brown hair and blue eyes…hehe
yeah…anyway….you are RIGHT. you ARE a fashion-missing bubblehead if you don’t use pretty-talk…which I do all the time. Speaking of that, where is my parental unit who has bubbly plans for today??? not that THIS isn’t bubbly….but that’s okay……BUBBLYNESS!!!!!! best friend forever Kai-la coming over tomorrow!!!!! listen, I’m doing a roleplay at http://ugliesrp.proboards92.com/index.cgi that’s set after specials and I’d love if some people could join *pretty-eyes face* pleeeease? thanks!!!!
~laine-wa
oh yeah, uhhh, people, it says in Specials that her city is in California…and Diego is where San diego used to be…get it???
I totally have to join the club! Plus, I go with the -la and -wa endings for everyone. BTW Laine-wa, Scott said in earlier posts that Diego was in Canada. Can’t find where he said that. Is Scott even reading this anymore?
i think it great if you really read these..
BUT HOW COULD YOU!? no just kidding- i wouldnt ever be able to stay mad because of my deep love for PEEPS and Uglies(but i really wish you would
(((^continue-ation)))
would not have killed zane!!!!
sorry that this is off topic but i just have to know. How come evolution’s darling and all those older books aren’t on the main website and are hardly mentioned at all? whats so different about them???
i know! zane died!
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!! I hate how it ended!!! Like, it was the only way for the book to end, unless it was badly, but i hated it. Mostly for these following reasons. 1)The book ended…yeap. thats the basica main reason. The serious is over, it ends. And i love her world so much.
2)Shay turns good. ICky icky icky. Ive always felt that shay was the real meanie. and i loved her for it.
3)zane dies. ZANE-LA DIES!!!! Why? why couldnt it have been david to die? Nobody liked david, he was ulgy. Zane was special. nuff said.
Anyways, ill stop ranting. I loved this book. LOVED LOVED LOVED…ARg. oh any i got all my friends hooked on it too. love me. out.
OMG Specials is an amazing book. I just finished it last night. Here are my views on some things:
Zane: I loved him He was my favorite character. I cried when he died and I like never cry from books and movies. Yeah thatรขโฌโขs pretty much all I have too say about him because itรขโฌโขs too sad to write about him.
David: I HATE him. But he and Tally are obviously just friends at the end. I wish he had died.
Pretty Speak: Of course I use it all the time. I called my sister a bubblehead yesterday.
Shay: I never really liked her. I didnรขโฌโขt like the whole รขโฌลbossรขโฌย thing. It was really annoying how she kept referring to Zane as รขโฌลyour boyfriendรขโฌย when she was talking to Tally.
Cutters: Wouldnรขโฌโขt it be weird if someone started cutting themselves after reading this book because they thought it would make them รขโฌลicyรขโฌย? Yeah just a thought.
Another Book: I donรขโฌโขt want there to be one. It wouldnรขโฌโขt be interesting for me because Zane wouldnรขโฌโขt be in it but I know if there was one I would feel like I had to read it anyway.
Well thatรขโฌโขs it for now.
My target list:
Izzy
My girlfriend
My brother and sister
DUMBLEDORE DIES!!!!!O.O
as always, specials was amazing. a lot came from that book that i wasnt expecting. like zane dying? sheer brilliance. he had to go. of course tally loved him, but she could never love him again the way she did. and her with david in the end? also brilliance. not them dating, because clearly thats not what happens, but the whole, them being friends and slowly getting to know each other again while the save the world from destroying themselves again is amazing. but the whole shay thing is kind of wierd. like, through the whole book she has been this character that succumbs to all the evil and what not, but in the end shes like, good? how does that work? and yeah, he being boss creaped me out, because she was never realy that good at doing the right things, and it was scary having tally follow her orders. anyways, i wish there was another one because i love the series, but i like the way it was all wrapped up.
bye for now.
oh, and btw, cilly-wa, i want to join the Specials Supporter Group!!
Big news, Where are you?
๐
I wasnt expecting the ending at all and it kinda made me mad! i didnt want Zane to die and I was mad at Shay a lot. I think you should add on to the series.
WRITE ANOTHER BOOK TO THE SERIES! PLEASE! and maybe a movie! ooOo000Oooo00o0OoooOo0 ;D
ok this isnt about specials but its about Pretties! ha ok on the cover is that David or Zane? someone tell me!!!!
omg I completely loved the book, and the ending was okay. I mean, it’s at least promising that there’s more (There better be…), but still giving you a closing to what’s happening. As cool as Zane was, I really liked David better, and I was glad that Zane died. And SHAY???? Why in the world would Tally take orders from her?? She’s always done the wrong thing and gotten mad at Tally for the wrong things…I don’t know why there’s still “friends” or whatever.
I really liked when Dr. Cable saves Tally from the operating table and stuff. That shows some cool stuff in that bottley-thing. I haven’t read the book in a while..but I loved it!!!
WRITE ANOTHER PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ali boo boo and rae rae nedd 2 GET A LIFE
omg best book ever it was my favorite series
it rocked i was sad that zane died but david was better im glad it was zane and not david but i still think u should write another book ~ruby
Ilove both David and Zane. However, I was glad that Zane died. He and Tally’s relationship was getting really annoying. Tally kept thinking that everything would be better once Zane was Special. She kept waiting for him to change so then she could love him. I think that Tally need to change herself, not Zane.
I think that david is awsome because he can see behind Tally’s appearance. He can see who she truly is. i loved when tally asked him who he thought she was, he replied, “you’re just Tally”.
Shay bugged me imensly. She was so moody!
Has anyone noticed that all of the books take place in under a year?
Yeah. It’s crazy to think that Tally went through 3 different “mind phases” in less then a year. It was only 3 seasons about.
*arrives without reading any other comments* Scott. With that single mention of Dumbledore, you have finally replaced me as the coolest person on Earth. Well done.
*back to “Specials”*
I wish that Dr. Cable really had died on page 596, even though there are only 372 page in the book. Also, I cried when Zane died. I was hoping that he would live and jump out of the pages to be MY boyfried. Alas, no such luck.
David: I’m glad he and Tally are staying out in the wild. God knows the wild’s gonna need them before long. And, I think, from fighting together against the cities, David and Tally are going to have a special bond that runs deeper than love, deeper than the most heartfelt friendship. They will develop a bond that can only be felt between a Special and an ugly.
Tally: I was ready to punch those doctors in the face for her when they kept calling her a “dangerous weapon.” Ugh. Stupid Diego with its freedom and niceties… xP
Shay: Shay can’t be good. No, no, no, no, NO! Shay is to the “Uglies” trilogy as Snape is to “Harry Potter;” the character we all love to hate. I though it was a strange turn of events that Shay went good and TAlly rewired her brain by THINKING again.
Oh, also, I’ve started calling my sister a “bubblehead” because she doesn’t understand it. Great, eh? Yesterday she came up to me wh ile I was on this very website and said “I’m pretty, you’re ugly, na-na-na-na boo boo!” And, me being SO witty, replied, “Okay, brain-lesion girl. Go float off if your little hot-air balloon and wait for the hovercar to get you.”
By the way… The ear on the spine was what attracted me to it. Then I read about how it was the final book in the trilogy, and I cursed to myself and went off in search of “Uglies.” I’m totally in love with all of the covers for those books. I’m big on art, though I suck at all visual forms of artistry, so that was part of what attracted me to the series.
Obviously, the books were written for strange girls who go to Border’s because they can smell the knowledge in the air O.O
I adore these books. I am not sad that Zane died though. I Liked David the best (don’t hurt me, many people here like Zane and he was fine, but i just didnt like him) I think Uglies would be a great movie!! But chosing the cast might be hard. So many people ruin movies by chosing the wroung people to play the chareters. I hope they don’t ruin it (like they did with the last 2 Harry Potter movies) Well i really want To see another book in this series. But i wonder… Why did Tally decide to live in the wild with David? I mean she seemed pretty set on hating him, didnt she? And imean After Zane died he would be the last person she would want to stay with right? But i Think Tally is soo much better with DAvid then ZAne, wll whatev…
i thought it was reallywrong for shay to treat tally the way she did in all the books. she made it seem like tally had set out to ruin everything. shay just didnt understand that tally was not making the decisions that wer made, speacial circumstances did, and wen tally did make her own decisions (wich almost never happened) they wernt selfish espeacialy in speacials wen she wanted to look after zane. she was in love with him she couldnt help it plus she deserved to be selfish once in a while if u think about it shay was more selfish than tally was i mayonly be younger than most of you but i still understood the whole thing
my older sis told me i woulndt like uglies prettys and then speacials but i bought them anyway and didnt stop reading them till i was done with all three i actually read during class to but i didnt get caught all my teachers think im an angel. actually the fact that the book was called uglies made me want to read it even more espeacially cuz almost all the girls my age (including me… sometimes) think they are ugly and reading the book made me realize it didnt matter because being pretty isnt always as good as it looks… it actually made things harder for tally and about the zane thing i cried till the book was over that was along time especially wen it was extremely hard to see
i agree with Jess, it was wroung for shay to treat tally the way she did. Shay had wanted to rule everything, She didnt even take orders from cable (which i most likly wouldent either cable is a B****, excuse my french)
This trilogy is on my top… 1 trilogy to read. It’s my favorite!!!! I love reading about this kind of futuristic fiction stuff. It’s so fun to read, and I feel a lot of opinions about our world today and what the future will really be like. I was sad at times in the trilogy, like Peris not turning out to be the rebel I thought he should have been, but then again he really shouldn’t have. I was happy, but still a little confused about the ending of Specials. Making this a quartet (hint hint) would be awesome!
i thought it was good how she ended up in the wild with david but i also thought it was kind of sad how she wont see any of her other frends 4 a while andrew simpson smith was really cool 2 it was kinda sad that her and peris kind or grew apart in the first book tally snuck all the way into new pretty town just to see him and they were really close then but a lot of her new frends r kewl 2
At first I didnรขโฌโขt like Zane, I couldnรขโฌโขt believe she’d leave David for him but very shortly i was routing for him. THEN he died!! Omg still not over that, couldnรขโฌโขt they just break up?
The biggest part of Zane dying that hit me most was that all he wanted was Tally to not be sickened by him any more. He died trying to get her to love him again…? The fact that thatรขโฌโขs seems to be why he died kind of made me not like Tally as she let him go so easy. I mean if they can do an op to almost completely change a humanรขโฌโขs body why couldnรขโฌโขt they save him? Doesnรขโฌโขt make much sense! Feel sorry for David though. As now his love for Tally is just a one way system.
If you managed to make it to the end without completely falling asleep Iรขโฌโขm sorry for rambling!
i wish zane and tally had actually kissed before he died!!!!!!!!i was soooooooooo sad-making
why isn’t there a tagline for Specials??? the other ones r like “what happens when perfection isnt good enoug etc.” and this one is like just the “final volume of acclaimed series”??????
whats up with that
please fine a way to get another book in this series!!!!
There definately needs to be another book, or at least something else. The ending didn’t really make sense. How would Tally and David save the whole world from destroying itself? That kind of confused me. And Zane wasn’t supposed to die! What the heck happened to happy endings? Anyway, it was an awesome series (at least until Zane died!).
Keep ’em coming, I read fast! ๐
If Dr cable had the “special” lesions then who gave them to her?????????? That is all that confused me other wise this book was more than awsome! And the ending was kind of sudden, but really good. I think it would be so fun to play a character like that, i mean Tally is a ‘normal teen’ in the first books then OMG she turns herself special and does ccrazy things then becomes special and does crazy things its just funny how much a noramll teen she is.
Its kinda like life. i guess in a way. you calm/ “normal” then you get older do some fun things you think are so important but arent, Then you go rebelious/ werid i am better than every one else, then it settles down and becomes your life and you cool down, Kinda lame compareson but thats ok. XD
first of all why is tally even a special i’m toattally mad about that. here i am all happy cause zane and tally are gonna be togther and live in diego togther, then the war starts and he goes and dies DIES DIES scott westerfeld why did you do that i really wanted her and zane to be togther he was so perfect. i don’t get how only 2 people can be the new S.C and is tally with david if so that is TOATALLY SAAAAAAD MAKING, TOATALLY. but the book kept my attention which is good BUT A LITTLE ADVICE SCOTTO MAKE A 4TH BOOK TATH BRING ZANE BACK 2 LIFE thanks
I think he had to kill zane because every thing would be all srewy if he didnt die, she wouldnt have left to help the world. she wouldnt have had the same ending. If he didnt kill of zane it would have been a mess and too much of a happyending. ANd knowing what scott writes there is really no happy ending there just cliff hangers that seem like good endiings you really never kmow what happens next because thats your choice, in your mind.
well, we all know that we would love a fourth book *hint, hint* but there’s NO WAY that SCOTT IS LISTENING TO THIS and writing a FOURTH BOOK, now IS THERE? Of course, we would all worship him forever if he did…*wink wink*
EHMIGAWD when zane died i like cried the rest of the time i read the book.
but i loved it any way.
any chance theres going to be a second trilogy? maybe where you make zane like think his wway out of being dead?
:'( im still sad.
*sob* i don’t think even…zane…can think his way out of being dead *sob* but maybe tally could have a dream about zane that makes her feel all happy because she got to see him in the dream? (yeah, i know, if someone died, a dream wouldn’t really fix it for me but my mom was all sad because i was getting older or whatever and then she had this dream and little me was in it and she got all happy…so maybe that would work…)
maybe Tally will, uh, drag random people off into the woods and make them into her own kind of specials…….not physically, even, but they can join her & david because it DOES seem like a lot for 2 people to do that…
do you know that in California there is a State Private Investigating Agency named Special Circumstances??
and also, someone in Oakland, California, is NAMED Special Circumstances. Kinda creepy. WHO NAMES THEIR CHILD SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES? (a: someone who obviously hasn’t read pretties/uglies/specials.)
huh, i don’t know why, when i list the names of the 3 books, i always go pretties/uglies/specials, not uglies/pretties/specials…huh i wonder why…
OK.. well im COnfUSEd cuz at the End of The book it sounded as if there was going to be another book… is there going to be a nother book some time….. i mean after the specials is there another book yet to come or is the trilogy over??? ahh i hope theres anyore book!! write back if u no anything…
OMG!!! It was soo good!!!
But I was so confused on which side I wanted to win!!! Sigh . . . I think Tally and David should hook up!!! Forget Zane . . . he’s great but . . . not nearly as strong as David . . .
OMG, OMG wrighting a book from David’s perspective is such a goood Idea!!!!!!!!!!!
You should soo do that Scott!!! Please???
Well I didn’t realy say this b4 but . . .
I Shay!!! She’s awful ๐ All she ever does is make fun of Tally!
As much as I Shay . . . I think she and Peris would make a good couple? Any comments to that?? ;-0
totally shay-la & peris would make a marvelous couple. you know what? my friend and i were having fun with rearranging our names into ugly characters’ names…my mom’s name turns into Shay, and my dad’s into Peris lol
yes, we all agree there should be another book. RIGHT, SCOTT???? *nudges*
je n’aime pas Shay.
that means I don’t like Shay in French.
yo soy un agente de circonstancias especiales. no quiero herirte pero lo hare si es necesario.
Spanish for–I am an agent of Special Circumstances. I don’t want to hurt you, but I will if I have to.
I’m getting mad . . . my stupid library dosen’t have any of you books Scott! I’m going broke!!!! All my baby-sitting money is gone . . . looks like it’s time to go beg my parents.
I have an Idea!!! When and if they make the movie the modles who did the covers for the books should be the actors in the movies!!!
That is such a happy-making thought!!!! YAY!!!
The are making movies you know… 20th century fox is….. go to google, then Uglies Movie! IIIIIIIIIIIIIII’MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Oh, and as far as if these are girl or boy books I think the obviously go either way… but that’s not what most people who havn’t read it seem to think. All my friends and even family made fun of me. Lmfao- but I was so into them i didnt care one bit. LOVE all your books Scott, and of course I’m always hungry for more!
uglies/pretties/specials are so not just books! I’m gonna try to get all my friends to read them!!!
okay, you know, i made a club called the crims at my SCHOOL. I am desperately obsessed.
I AM STILL WONDERING
If Dr cable had the รขโฌลspecialรขโฌย lesions then who gave them to her?????????? That is all that confused me other wise this book was more than awsome! And the ending was kind of sudden, but really good. I think it would be so fun to play a character like that, i mean Tally is a รขโฌหnormal teenรขโฌโข in the first books then OMG she turns herself special and does ccrazy things then becomes special and does crazy things its just funny how much a noramll teen she is.
Mabey gave the ‘special’ lesions to herself cuz she’s a crazed mannic! IDk . . . Scott you have some splanin’ ta do!
thats sorta what i was thinging but yeah scott iam CONFUSED!!!!
I think Scott should write more books to explain all of it!
maybe an expanation booK!
an expantion book would be good! or like a book 4 . . . and 5 . . . and 6 . . . I can’t stand that the series ended I thought I had finaly found somthing to read but no . . the series ended . . . sigh . . .I guess it’s back to rereading . . .
Hello. I do not absolutely agree with you, but everyone has the right on own idea.
I was in complete aw… I spent 4 hours of my day stuck on this book and MY GOD… I was completely addicted, and Zane’s death made me devastated, I started to cry, it was terrible. And my god I can’t tell you how frustrating it was for me when Tally would just not give in to being normal again. I was trying to rush through all the Special parts because I loved Tally. After reading the trilogy, I dont know, I’m just absolutely missing Tally Youngblood. I feel in love with this trilogy, and ZANE!
Stell. x.
do you know that on the plane home from ITALY i forced my friend to read Specials, and she didnt even want to at all and i made her and i turned all these Italian teens on to it, and she didnt even like it at first but she cried when Zane died…and then all day she kept coming up with new realizations, like how my name “Laine” rhymes with “Zane” and then she kept going on about how she heard people calling Zane’s name in the plane and how he couldnt have died, nobody actually SAW him DIE…and then she tried to convince me she didnt like the book:)
I finished Specials four days ago, but of course I had to read the 336 other comments. Wow.
Poor Zane. I was sad, even though at the end of Pretties I thought that Zane would die. I mean, he had nano-robot thingies eating away at his brain for a few months. And of course Tally would never really choose between him and David. I always thought she would end up with David because he was first. Even if Tally was given pretty-lesions that made her forget, that doesn’t mean the reader would. My english teacher would call it dramatic irony, when the reader knows something the character doesn’t. Although I don’t think its very dramatic, or very ironic. I’ve gone off topic. Back to Specials.
Shay is sooooooo mean. Tally never really did anything wrong. Sometimes I wish I could give Shay the uglies trilogy so that she could see things from Tally’s perspective. That sounds really silly but Shay really has no idea what Tally has gone through. Anyway, great books Scott! The cover of Specials really shattered by hopes for another book. Did you do that on purpose? Remember, there isn’t anything like that on the cover of Blue Noon. MORE MIDNIGHTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I keep forgeting which forrum I’m on. Specials was great. Keep up the good work.
Woo I just finished Specials like two minutes ago. And it is great!
I’m happy that Tally is heading off with David now, because he’s my favorite character. The Zane part is sad though, because I didn’t want him to die. Well, basically I don’t want anyone good to die. Oh well.
I wish that Tally didn’t stay a special though. Specials creep me out! And I hope she stops cutting herself, because the thought of using a knife to cut yourself intentionally is very very disturbing!
Great book though! I loved it.
Scott, is there a possibility that you’ll write more Uglies books? Write as many as you can… knock yourself out! I’m in love with the series and I’m hoping you can write more. Thank you. ๐
i absolutely LOVED this triology. i couldn’t get enough, and finished the series in three days time . ๐ everything was fantastic, up to the part when zane died. i freaked out and skimmed ahead to look for zane in the following text and when i found nothing, i started to cry. david was great & all, and i understand that it was amazing that he thought she was beautiful no matter what, but zane.. he just meant so much more to me. i can’t believe he died. sure, his death was essential, but still.. it hurt. it was sort of weird that tally never changed from a special to a “normal” person (whatever that is), but it definitely made sense. i’m real happy that she’s going to make sure the changes in the cities don’t get out of hand, but i wonder how she’ll do it? david isn’t a special… he can’t do the things she can do. and what WOULD she do if people were clearcutting too much or something? bite them? i really can’t imagine. anyway, this book is definitely one of my favorites. great job, scott!
OMG, I loved this book, it was so powerful! I can’t believe the trilogy is over though ๐
I too felt the tears well up when Zane died, but not because I liked him all that much, but because I felt sorry for Tally. I think she was really brave to do what she did, you know, go back to Dr Cable etc.
I absolutely laughed my head off at the line “Don’t just stand there, you little moron! Act like you’re passing out!”pg 347. – that was completely random and hilarious! I had no idea who the voice was, I thought maybe David had hacked into the Skintenna network.
At first, I wasn’t too keen on the ‘cutting’ thing though, Scott. I wasn’t quite sure where you were going with it, I thought the cutters were all suicidle and everything, but in the end I guess it all worked out fine. Anyway, enough waffling from me, excellent work mate, can’t wait to read more books from you, luv them!!!
– Kellay, VIC
will you write more if we make a petition??? (and will you bring zane back? lol jk)
its really sad that zane died and its bad that tally stayed special. you should write another book!
uglies pretties and specials are different from all of the other books i’ve read, for starters it is set in the future, I love all the nifty things like hoverboards and bungee jackets. Maybe I should invent some….. Everyone says they don’t like Shay I rekon, she is the one that adds the action, she is very strong minded. I really wish Diego didn’t kill off the special circumstances, they were ausome, but I suppose Tally is still there, but wouldn’t she get bored just with David, no friends?
Am also wondering why no-one had piercings…Tats galour and everything, but no piercings, i suppose it would be a bit hard to get earing in key with your heart beat and everything, but still!
I really thought Tally was going to be turned ugly at the end. The last word in Uglies is pretty, the last word in Pretties is special, and the third-to-last-word in Specials is ugly. I know I shouldn’t have peaked at the end before I read the book but I did:( and I really thought that she was going to become ugly. Well, at least her mind is “ugly”. And being special is good, it helps you save the world.
I think we really should have another book, called “Normals”….idk just thought it would be cool
i got “uglies” last wednesday, finished it saturday, got pretties monday, finished it the next day, got specials tuesday, finished it 15 minutes into today.
what a rollercoaster!
what an imagination!
i want a hoverboard.
i cried like a baby when zane died.
omg!!!!!!! when i finished the book i was in calss and my friend nuged me and asked why i was soo sad and happy at the same tim, well i was confused, i said zane died and she wasn’t alone.
she totally looked at her strange and i said zane the guy that tally loved in Specials died and now tally is still special and romeing the wilderness with david as a new sorta abstract special secamstances
she says she’ll read the books now cause i just made her more confused
So I was the one who waited for the day when Specials arrived at Borders after reading(and loving) the first two books. So this is what happened I went home started reading when I went to bed the got so captured into Tally’s world that I couldn’t stop until I knew what happened. At four in the morning I set my book down with tear streaked cheeks and just sat there. I laughed at the batterd cover from throwing the book across the room numerous times i.e. Dr. Cable saves Tally (why couldn’t David save her?). But then I realized how freking angry I was. This all was Shay’s fault!! If Shay had never met Tally things could have been better!! But finally like 5 months later I have realized Scott you did an amazing job! I’m now reading the whole series over again for the third time. I’m on Pretties and I’m throwing the damn thing at the exact same moment I did the last two times I read it. By the way Zane broght his death upon him he did urge the splitting of the pills so I’m sorry but Zane did it to himself(although I cried like a baby when he died)! Oh shame on you cheaters if your reading this before you read Specials you have just ruined the whle experience for yourself!!
p.s. more books would satisfy me deeply!! We all need more Tally Youngblood!
The world needed more Tally Youngblood, especially now that there would be a shortage of beautiful, useful things.
Feel the power of the quote.
p.s. is Scott even READING this anymore??? Because if not, he needs to come back. Yeah.
David is so much better than zane.
Without tally, zane would not really have done anything revolutionary.
Maddy and az obviously were really revolutionary, they started the revolution, and well their son had to be just as smart as them.
Tally always amazes me, when they trapped her in the room with Dr.cable i was like “SHE IS GETTING SCREWED AGAIN!” i don’t know how dr.cable can think so ahead and know almost exactly what tally does.
And i also wonder did Dr.cable know about his lesions? i mean he is like the head doctor.
I just finshed reading the books and they are my favorite ever, i did not cry when zane died though, i always liked David much better.
i really enjoyed the ending of specials altough the climax of Uglies and Pretties i liked more, because deceit and losing hits me in the face harder.
i am going to read all of your books, this trilogy are the first i’ve read of yours, and like most books i read makes me think of HOW do you come up with such plots, it really does amaze me.
You are my favorite author ever. I cant believe that the series is over though! Sad making!!!!! Same for midnighters.
I am the coolest person ever though cause my name is Tally, for real, and I was born at midnight! RIGHT ON THE DOT.
cool huh?
u make the books 4 me? lol
back again! lol
just wanted to say that I did not like the ending of the Pretties, but loved the ending of the specials. I totaly hated Tally for making David so sad in the 2nd book. I LOVE DAVID!
I am not saying the killing Zane was right but……….
I want to be a writer some day, and you are my inpiration!! Thanks Byes for real now going to buy Peeps!
I read Uglies in 4 days, Pretties in 2, and Specials in 1 day!I loved the uglies trilogy! My friend was reading uglies and she covinced me to read it. Almost everyone in my class is reading it now. I also cried when Zane died, but i always wanted Tally to end-up with David in the end. Now that i finished the Uglies trilogy i’m so sad…..I realy wish there were more. That would be cool if they made it into a movie! The uglies trilogy is the first books i read from you, i can’t wait to read more!
The specials was awesome! I liked how the ending was less than tradegy and more of a mission. I wish that Tally would have turned back into a ugly because even in the end, her personality was still shifted. I love David. I’m sorry about Zane but it seemed like Tally’s love for Zane was a little artificial. Sorry got to run!
Sorry about that(typo), now I can finish my thoughts in peace. As I was saying, I really didn’t feel a strong connection to Zane but I still liked him.I think the Uglies had a complete ending, now all we need is an awesome movie. And I think the cast should not include anyone famous or already known(at least not the main characters).The overall song for the triology should be “Let go” by Imogene Heap(lryrics totally match).
Why did u have to kill Zane?I loved him so much I threw the book at my mirror (it shatered) and cried why?
I loved all of the books! i couldn’t stop reading then, keep going on and on! I was so sad when Zane died. i dont think he should have! (sob, sob, tear)
I hope that Scott makes another book because i am addicted to the books and they are the best
*please!!!
I think that it would be way awsome is their were more books!
At the end i was glad that Tally went with David (still sad for Zane dying) because they deserved eachother
I thought that Tally was going to turn pretty again instead of staying special but i guess that didnt happen
I would totally want to live in the world that Tally does!
Why Did you Kill zane. I loved hia nd thought that he and Tally were perfect for eachother!!!!!!!
i LOVE the ending! it doesn’t seem like an ending; it’s almost like a beginning. you have to write more about tally. and david.
zane’s death was heartbreaking; he seems to really love tally. but i’d feel safer with david.
the very fact that zane wanted to be as how he used to be disturbs me slightly. it’s a like a telltale sign that he that he looked into physical appearance. and the fact that he and tally fell for each other during pretty days…
all my life i’ve had beautiful, gorgeous friends; majority of them had been approached by modelling agencies. i don’t think i picked these friends but perhaps i did.
so when i realised i love david, i’m not going to go and fall for zane like everybody else.
i love the Ugly boy and i’m proud of it!
Thank you scott!!!
Hey, I love The Ugly boy too, and I’m proud of it too ! Intelligence is hot, why couldn’t Tally see what she had right in her face?
i loved teh ending even though it was sad. i too, went into a bummed out staged a couple of days after i read the book. now i have a question for you scott, do you have a thing for sad endings? ive noticed that in midnighters and the uglies series they have both had sad endings. anyway very good job. i just told my friend about them. she already wanted to read them but yea.
thanks for the great books.
I didn’t cheat. Honestly. I read ALL the books. They were absolutely amazing. Probably the best books I’ve ever read =] I litterally cried when Zane died. His time came to, to soon. I can tell you, I saw it coming but I didn’t expect it. Anways, I think these books should be made into a movie. That would rock =] I also agree that there should be another book. the ending left me wanting more.
again, AMAZING! LOVE IT! WANT MORE!
Wait, so there is a movie?
It better be good! I don’t know if I trust 20th Century Fox to make it as amazing as it could be. I’d hate to see such a fantastic story go to waste on a bad movie.
the movie should be made by Miyazaki. That would be very awesome-making =]
I looked up at some other comments and I agree on the fan art. I love to draw and I looked on google to see if anyone drew pictures but no one had. (or any that were on the internet)
I think that’ll be my new goal.
HOPE YOU SEE MY ARTWORK SOON! =]
You’re right Lisie Loo, Scott Westerfeld’s books should be made into movies, and I the casting would be made up of new faces. I have the perfect song selection too for the Uglies,(In order of the series).Imogene Heap:”Let Go”, “Must be Dreaming,” and “Hide and Seek.” Hey Miyazaki’s awesome, but has he ever did any productions outside of animation?
Another thing, The Midnighters made me more depressed than the Uglies. The Midnighters was open ended and had a little left to be resolved. But the Uglies were more of a triumphant begining to an amazing journey. The endings are perfect and original. But I would like to read additional books to the series, or at least see some movies. I’m kind of apprehensive about tv series although.
Hey! I have been thinking about the songs to go with Uglies too. Every since I started reading it. I think for the first book seems to go with “How to Save a Life” by The Fray.
The second “When you were Young” by THe Killers
the third “It Ends Tonight” by All-American Rejects. I have a lot more but I’m not gonna bore you guys with the details.
I haven’t read the midnighters yet, but I think I soon will =]
Need info! Peeps or Midnighters?
Anyway, Scott I LOVED your trilogy. Please, please PLEASE make a sequel to this trilogy. From Davids or Shay’s perspective would be awesome! ;-D
Thanx so much, I have gotten all my friends(even some of my teachers) hooked to the series. You’re the best writer ever! WRITE MORE BOOKS!
Heard they are makin a movie! SOOOOOOOOO ICY!
I’m bummed about Zane *snifle* but I’ll get over it
Over and out:-P
Are you kidding guys! READ MIDNIGHTERS! You think the UGlIES ending with Zane dying was sad, Not even close. The ending was so open ended, that it’s scary! Then read the PEEPS, you’ll learn a lot of cool outside information on biology, and the characters and the sitituation are hilarious!
Oh yaeh, I sooooooo agree with you Lisie Loo. Those songs so go with the books.
Thanx Demensiona! I’ll totally read midnighters! ๐
typo *yeah* oops
so is there really an uglies movie coming out? if there is ill be dancing around my house. all of my favortie books are coming out with a movie.
You’re welcome Stayin’ Icy! I’m not sure weazle about an UGLIES movie coming out, but there should be one. I’ll be dancing around and bouncing off the walls too. Hey do you guys have any good book reccomendations (series), I’ve read all of Scott’s books besides the Last Days(shipping in) already. Scott, please create another series or continue some PLEASE! Oh I like those song’s too Lisie Loo!
Hey Demensiona! Go to google and type in Uglies movies. Click on the third one, and it talks about the movie coming out in 2008. Of course, you never know what you get from the internet,so they might not have one. Of course, I hope they do! ๐ For other books, check out the teen fantasy isle (that where the Uglie’s trilogy is) for other books. Hope this helps! ๐
Write more books Scott!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please ๐
Write more books PLEASE!!! i loved them all and want there to be more.
PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the ending seemed like the beginning and i hope that it keeps on going!!
they said the there would be a movie. ilooked it up and it said it was comimg out in 2007 or something!!!
Hey, everyone who thinks Shay sucks, she sooooooooo doesn’t! I mean, if Tally hadn’t found Shay, she would just turn into any bubblehead and the story would have no interest at all!!
I feel beter now ๐
lol
Sweet i have finished “Specials”, it was awesome. The detail in the book is exsquisite.I even read it within 2 hours (yes i am semi-pyshotic).I espically loved the end when Tally tells everyone that she wil-*someone comes in amd drags me away*
P.S.Bwha ha ha!Read the book.
-New somke runaway
To stayin’ icy:
i dot thik that shay sucks. the story would kind of be a dud with out her!
Specials rules!!
Thanks Stayin’ Icy. Shay’s cool, but it seemed to me that throughout the series, after her change into a pretty, that the shay we met in the UGLIES, never fully returned. That goes for Tally too, even in her final words for the series, she still seemed different. I don’t know, its pretty interesting to me.
I think the series should be continued in order to get into greater depth on the rusties, and the parents, and on other societies and what not.
Ya, Shay works up a major attitude. And Tally changed soooooo much
A series would totally be icy too! ๐
yeah buddy it would be! i hope their is a series!!!
Wait, I’m confused, what series? Pertaining to the viewpoints of Shay?, An aditional series to the ulgies? or just a continuation to where the triology left off?
I think any of those would be icy. But I think a continuation to what Tally and David do after would be awesome. I really want to know what they do to save the world!
keep writing ๐
Or more in depth about the Rusties
Cool, I want to know more too!
see your fans, scott?
and my school just got pretties (thanks to me of course:)) and there’s already a 10-person waiting list…
Fantastic!,Enjoy!
Kinda off subject, but check out the shorts on Scott’s blog on the 19th. They are so scary, yet so icy!
-Later
Clarification on “shorts”. I meant short films.
Oops ๐
Other idea for sequel(Not mine though). Jess and Tally should totally meet! That would be SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jessica Day?woW, how would that happen? A cross over series?,COOl! But if Tally and Jess met, that would mean that Jessica was never released from the demension, and all the other midnighters and their families are dead. But maybe by some freak accident, or on PURPOSE, the other midnighters are stuck in the dimension as well? I don’t know, but it would be cool. could you imagine seeing the words,”said Jessica”, in an Uglies book or vice versa?,Other midnighters with talents still existing into the future?Plus the books are kinda entangled with the whole oil ordeal. Though all I know,is that that would be one thick novel(S). Keep us reading for many midnights!, and THAt’S AWESOME!
That would be so awesome! I don’t know which series I like the best, so it would make me double happy!
Wait, how old would Jess be? Not exactly the math person here :-), though I will try to figure it out.
I loved this series. The ending was awesome, but Zane’s death was really sad! I’m glad that Tally ended up friends with David, because I always like him better. He knows Tally better than she knows herself, and I really respect him for how much he helped her.
I think that it made a great conclusion for Zane to die at the end, because it would be near imposible to make Tally choose, and still satisfy herself.
Sorry Stayin’ Icy, but I am far from a mathmatical genius.
It’s funny, I never really, as a reader, felt a honest connection to Zane, as strong as David’s. Maybe I need to read the series over again to hone a different perspective.
Erggh.
So the stupid bookstore didn’t have Pretties.
But they had Specials so I got it.
So then I come up with this great idea that I would find some Pretties spoilers on the internet.
It ended badly.
I don’t know who Zane is, but if I did I’m sure I’d like him.
Dead?
Wow…that’s deep.
But I love David.
And I’m glad she ends up with him.
Eeekkk.
I seriously think someone needs to jump through the computer screen and save me from the books out of order.
Specials is just sitting here…
Staring..
I want to open it..
I really do..
But I’m not going to.
Yet.
Until I’ve read Pretties..
Hannah, what a horrible scenario! I had a similar problem, but it was w/ the specials. I had to wait practically a year to read the specials, I read the Uglies a last year, so the the references and the events in the book were a little fuzzy. Though I applaud you for your difficult patience.
Hey guy’s I’m in need of another books and or series because I’ve practically read every GOOD science fiction book(s)(thanks stayin’icy) known to man! Any suggestions? I might’ve missed one. Hurry Scott, please make more books!
Uh?
You know how I said I was going to wait?
That little situation turned out to be an impossible task.
I’m on page 173, and I can’t put it down.
Poor Zane.
He’s all shaky and Tally has to be a little douche.
I can’t stand her or Shay anymore.
That’s okay, yeah, towards the end, Shay and Tally were acting pretty shady.They changed.
Okay.
I finished Specials.
It didn’t give me the fuzzy feeling inside that I was looking for in the end.
I was hoping that David and Tally would go into some major corny romance scene that was all “Oh my God David, I love you!” And yada.
Then they’d have a short make-out session.
But noooo.
They don’t even hug.
If anyone knows a good, cheesy, flufferific young adult romance novel that doesn’t end so horribly, please let me know.

Read it hoes =]
Cool! TWILIGHT IS TO DIE FOR!(plus its a nice read while awaiting more books from Scott Westerfeld!). Hey, what do you Twilight fans think of the movie casting? Emily Browning should be Bella, and Drew Fuller looks the most in my head like Edward. I could go on for hours, but the is the awesome SPECIALS site!
My fav books/series(besides Scott’s and Twilight) are:
Luna(forgot author)
Shades Children(Garth Nix)
Blue is for Nightmares series(Laurie Faria Stolarz)
hannah i just read some more good books… they are the wicked series… a witch and warlock series very good and has some romance. i highly recomend it. it took me about 6 days to read both 600 page books. i love twilight too i jsut read it and cant wait to get new moon.
I agree, Twilight is the most most wonderful book. New Moon is great too, but not as good as Twilight. i absolutley love Edward, sooooo much. Every single living soul must read it, I can’t wait till the movie and Eclipse!!!!!!
Twilight, in my opion, is better than Scott westerfeld you need 2 read it!
The authors are a TIE!!!
AHHH!! I just read that book in about 5 hours instead of studying for AP History but o well…i thought it was a really good book i mean obviously i couldnt put it down
but WOW did Zane have to die…i’m still pondering this i mean i loved david and i was upset when she had schosen zane over him but then zane died and i didn’t wan’t that haha
all i know the book is great!!
it was a really good ending
twilight is an awesome book haha i have to agree but bo i like westerfeld’s work but special idk i can’t seem to fully comprehend the ending
i mean yea her and shay were really starting to bug me with the whole egocentric stuff i just feel the book was a good ending yet not it wasn’t as thrilling as the 1st two
Oh my gosh. This trilogy absolutely rocked. I cried soo hard when I read that Zane died. (By the way, I am a little confused how he did.. Can anyone clear that up for me)! Anywyas, I loved Zane to death and he absolutely should NOT have died. I think Tally should have gone with him because as she said in the Pretties, she LOVED him. They had been with eachother for so much, it just sucked having him dead.
The character changed soo much, mostly & extremely Tally & Shay. ITS AMAZING. Just think about it… Shay’s character sort of disapoints me as how she acts as a Special and Pretty, and just how she is towards Tally.
I think this is what should have happened:
Zane’s brain recover and Zane becomes Special.
Rewrite the story with that! & Zane never dies. LOL I LOVE ZANE. He was so soft and he and Tally have been together through so much!
omg i love twilight and new moon wih all my heart but this is the scott wester feld website so i have to admit that ughlies is avery close tie! all that uglies etc. need s to beat twilihgt and newmoon is more romance, i hope u are writing a 4th scotty and i have secret sources from my sis’s school that tell me u are! but i wont give away ur secret! in love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love love love!
it totally also recomentd harry pttter!!!!!!!!
love u scotty! will write soon!
Echy, how can read a book in 5 hours, that’s ammazing! And I agree with you that the third one wasn’t AS exciting as the Uglies and the Pretties but what could we expect?, They were technical, two-demensional robots. And I think the ending could have been a little more exciting if, Tally turned back into a ugly, so that TALLY could finish the story, NOT TALLY-WA. And I wanted Shay to be ugly too, so that we could finish her story, and so she could tell Tally her true thoughts on everything(David), I don’t think we ever got her back.
(Twilight Fanatic too! fans should go to stepheniemeyer.com(if not already), and read the first chapter of the fourth book,” Eclipse”, its awesome!)
Jordyn, I’m not EXACTYLY sure what killed Zane, but I believe that his death was due to the lesions that had destroyed his motor skills, and the added medication from Diego. Zane was a vegetable, so Tally decided to take him off of some form of life support, to leave a bed for any injured Diegan who COULD be saved.
Yeah I liked Zane too, I wish his brain could have conquered the lesions, I miss his Bubbliness( no adventure). I don’t think his death was really necessary unless Zane’s death symbolized Tally’s break/connection from the pretty world(past)?
Nap! I bet you are excited about Eclipse, and a possible Twilight movie as I am!
And I’m so sorry etchy and other Twilight fans, correction, there is the fist chapter of MIDNIGHT SUN found on the website(story told from Edward’s view).
SORRY!
More books scott, can’t wsit,and if already so then, PLEASE, and THANK YOU!
I think it would be really cool if you made more books in Tally’s time era. But in a different setting.
Yeah, maybe some narrator(S) lived in some other place that wasn’t mentioned in the triology. Maybe at some point in the books the would have an interaction with Tally and David.
Or maybe, there would be people/civilization outside the Uglies realm, who do something inhuman(specials powers,who knows), there’s infinite possibilites are endless.
Sweet! I’d read it!
Me too!
I have only now remembered about the Specials Spoiler Zone (yeah, I finished it in September and promptly read TLD right after…). So now here I am. And I liked it. Duh. I thought it was a good one, better than Pretties. But I still like Uglies the best. Anyways, I’d read more (see above posts by other readers who, um, probably remember the books better than I, the wonderful capt.). So, um, that’s all.
I’ll rewrite the ending:) lol
Well welcome capt.cocktiel! Oh, and Uglies was my favorite too. I think everything was just really fresh and new. People were pretty sane; and there was the most action and adventure. And I believe that it had the greatest cliff hanger!
OMG!!! I loved that series!! I finished it awhile ago but didnt look 4 the spoilers till now. I’ve totally piked up the ling of these books! i say words like icy and bubbly ALL THE TIME! I also add -la -wa to the end ov like ever1s names. btw, in the beggining, it says that there are 6 hoverboards. but there’s only 5 cutters :tally, shay, fausto, tachs, and ho. whos the 5th board 4?? OMG, i totally cried when zane died. i’m split in 2! i luv zane AND david!
also, i really think scott shuld write another book 4 this series! i mean, IT CANT END HERE!!!!!!
The 5th hoverboard might have belonged to Peris. Oh, and I also think that Scott should totally write a fourth book to the series too.
i loved all the books but was so sad when zane died i cried i think these books would make a really good movie
They are ; or at least the Uglies in 2008!
if they really made a movie, it wuld b way kewl if they used the ppl who posed 4 the cover shots as characters. its not very realistic, but heyy, who knows? i think it wuld b great becuz once i saw the cover of each of the books, i always imagined Tally changing 2 look like them. it wuld sukif they piked ppl who looked nothing like the cuvers cuz now thats what i imagine Tally looking like.
P.s. I was wondering, who is they dude on the cover of Pretties supposed 2 b? I couldnt figure out if it was Zane, David, or maybe even Peris. Sumone, plz answer!!!!
I think that that person might be Zane or Peris, but anyway, why would you want to SPOIL the book?!?! I was reading a comment earlyer on the latest post, and I found out the SADDEST thing EVER! And I havent got to that part in SPECIALS yet! ๐
Yeah, the person on the cover is Zane because I believe that David and Peris have brown, or darker hair, and they both didn’t play a huge part in the Pretties. The book was mostly focused on the arrival of Zane.
yea i e-mailed scott and he said (or his ppl w/e) said that the ppl on the cover of Pretties r Zane and SHAY-LA!!!! I culdnt believe it!!! I was so convinced that it was Tally!!! o well
I think that the cover of ‘SPECIALS’is the COOLESTEST-EST COVER EVER!!!! ..It’s sooo mysterious and suspicious yet it had that look of superiority and power. I think that is one of the best pictures I’ve seen on the cover of a book. ..I wish I knew which character the face was supposed to be…TALLY OF SHAY OR DR. CABLE? or is it just some other random Special?______________________________________________
Anyway….that cover is the COOLEST! and that’s why lately,I’ve put the book standing on the dinner table for all to see! LOLx! xD
BY THE WAY, DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO REACH SCOTT? IF SO, WHATS THE EMAIL ADDRESS? thanx
SCOTT WESTERFELD IS THE GERAT AUTHOR EVERRR! OMG! lol
Suggestions to some other GRRRREAT books ARE…
-The house of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer
-(7 sins)series….wrath, greed, pride, envy..such..by Robin Wasserman
-Pride and Prejudic by Jane Austen
-I am the messenger by Markus Zusak
-(The oracle prophecies)by Catherine Fisher.
-Twilight by Stephanie something…
-New Moon (Sequal to Twilight by Stephanie something. ๐
Twlight and New Moon are by STEPHENIE MEYER!The series a great alternative(and strongly ADDICTIVE)read. oh and Sunny, I don’t know Scott’s email adress offhand, but if you go to the homepage, you can click on “contact me.”
Kellywa, on the PRETTIE’S cover, that’s SHAY! It looks like Tally’s Uglie’s face corrected, Interesting!!, would have never guessed!
I’m still getting over reading SPECIALS becuase Zane died :'( Wow I cried a lot and I was very upset. I didn’t wanrt to read it anymore… but I did. It’s like how I felt when Aslan died in Narnia. You know, the UGLIES trilogy would make a good movie ๐ I KNOW SOMETHING HERE YOU MAY NOT KNOW!!! (Email from Scott revealed the secret ;))
any one ever read the “Abarat” series by Clive Barker? If not you should the 3rd book comes out this Febuary. Its the only clive barker book i fell in love with though the others are somewhat disgusting. just a recomindation!
I love/hate how you don’t know if David and Tally end up together, I also love/hate how Zane died. And how you knew Tally wasn’t special anymore when she could finally cry.
*Read Specials while listening to The Killers (Hot Fuss), they work really well together…
Oh my God, Kell I did exactly the same thing Kell! Which song do you think went the best? And I was listening to Imogene Heap too,(she has a very futuristic sound).
Zane died… ZANE DIED! Why did Zane die??? He and Tally were supposed to get back together at the end! (For all I care David could have been killed off if the book needed a relatively main character to die.) Seriously though… WHY? Throughout the book I loved the unexpected twists, but this was not good. She can’t go back to David after she’s been w/ Zane for like two books! If that hadn’t happened I would have no complaints whatsoever.
I have an idea! Bring Zane back in Extras! Please! Somehow you could make him not really die… right? That would be a good twist. It would make me and my friends very happy.
Demensiona, I found that listening to Change Your Mind while reading the ending was VERY good, but the whole CD goes with it I think (except not Mr. Brightside or Somebody Told Me, though, just my opinion…)
I wish there he would come out with a fourth book with Tally in it. I just finished reading it yesterday! ๐
He is, but it’s not from Tally’s POV, she might appear in it though.
Oh, and Demensiona, visit my site sometime. xanga.com/animedork17 or e-mail: faerie.nights@yahoo.com I’d love to hear your other opinions on the books =)
Hey, I like David. And Zane had to die because in any triology or series, you need at least one of the central characters to die,leave, or vanish.
And cool Kell, Change your mind is one of my favorite songs on the album.Besides track 8, I loved, On top! Yeah and I totally agree that tracks 2,4, and 12 and 13 don’t go to well(diff. messages, I think). I’ll definetly email you though kell!
I know about his 4th book I mean like another Tally book on how she is with David in the wild and such.
I wish Zane hadn’t have died. I would rather see him with Tally as a Special.
My least favorite part of the books are how Shay got to experience being Pretty and Special before Tally. I thought Tally should have been made Pretty then Shay and Tally should I been Shay’s boss as a Special.
I wish Shay would’ve died instead of Zane.
In my opinion i think that Tally made good decisions in what she did in specials. I like how she could fight the effects in every book without have to use a cure. She made herself bubbly whenever she was a pretty,and she didn’t have to cut herself to stay icy when she was a special.
I think that in the first place, Tally should have never split the cure for the lesions with Zane. I also think that in the Pretties, Tally should have changed herself, at least, into a uglie because as a special, and as a pretty, she still wasn’t TALLY, she was TALLY-WA. That goes for Shay too.
Sorry, typo error: “In the SPECIALS,Tally..”, sorry!
I think that it was sooooo sad that zane died. I really liked zane and tally loved him and yet through out Pretties and specials I couldnt help feeling that she should be woth David.
I think David was the only person in tally’s life that didnt try and control her and only saw Tally.
Oh, and Demensiona that is just what happened in the book so you shouldnt critize it. It was an Amazing book and obviously you think so becausee you are writting about it so why critize?
I love the books!Sorry ,Didn’t mean to sound so criticitcal, I just didn’t agree with some of the choices and transformations that were made, but I loved the books! The Uglies series is amazing, and I would never doubt that.
Oh and I agree W/ you Stef, David was the only person who really saw Tally, which made her able to truly see herself.
i love tally/david! how exactly did Zane die? i am happy he did^_^
um hello? well ping me when you post:P
-pings- How could you say you were happy about Zane dying, Talshad? He died from his weak brain and they they needed more rooms in the hospital so they took him off of oxygen which resulted by him dying.
ooohhhhh!well im sorry but i dont like him i like david better
I like David better too Talshad, but Zane was okay.
so is everyone psyched for extras?
omg i am so excited for the new book and i like the fact that it is from a dif. view point/character!I cant wait!!!!!!
theres another book!OMG!!! sorry about the zane thing but cheekbones as sharp as arrow heads?…..ew
I can’t wait for Extras.
I get what Demensiona was saying, Scott’s an amazing writer and everything, so he was okay with making Tally into a person that some people (like Demensiona and myself) simply couldn’t stand because she just wasn’t herself. That takes a strong writer to be able to do that to a character.
Oh, and Talshad, I didn’t like Zane at all either, it seems like he was just put in there to keep Tally company while she was pretty, and in Specials it was like, ‘Okay, what do we do with him now?’ Even if Tally didn’t technically “end up” with David in the end, he’ll always be the more “special” of the two in my eyes for showing Tally that being normal doesn’t make you ugly… wow, that sounded cheesy and cliche and I think I need to shoot myself….
no that sounded great! and thanks for supporting me! i HATE zane and i HATED when tally called poor david ugly:(
oh and on the cover of Pretties who was that?Tally and David or Zane?
Talshad i think that was zane. i mean that would make since. He was in more of the book then David. I wish it was David though.(i agree with you the worst part of the book was when tally called David ugly)
if i was davis i would never talk to tally and give her the cold shoulder. what a jerk she was! humph!
OMG!!!! i finally got the book!!!AHHH!!!!!!!
the girl on the cover was Shay I think, and the boy was definately Zane.
Wow, I cant wait for the Extras too!!! And thanks for supporting me Kell, and your whole statement on “being normal doesn’t make you ugly,” was so for from cheesy that its scary(Tally was so pretty as a HUMAN on the cover). Yeah, Scott truly has courage and skill to bring on Tally- wa.
And you guys, I shed no tears for Zane’s death, because I felt no internal connection to him because he was practically a robot(It was a pretty love affair).
Yeah and Tally’s words seared through me, I don’t know how David put up w/ these sort of moments. Like I said Tally-wa isn’t Tally, and I don’t like not having her back.I hope she appears in the Extras as TALLY. The fist volume was the best because it was all centered around David, where it should be.
Oh and you’re right on the cover art Kell. I wonder what SHAY would really look like on paper/in the flesh.
yeaj i liked the spolight on david. the name is so CUTE/HOT!
thanks guys! I hope she comes back as herself too, I was really hoping that she would get cured of being special and turn back into an “ugly”. The reason I probably felt connected to David more, besides the obvious, is because that is my late uncle’s name. People in my family often say I’m like him- except for the whole druggie part… Anyway, even though the point of the story was not for Tally to end up in love, a piece of me still hopes that there was a happily ever after between the two that was simply not written, like The Lady and the Tiger.
This is one of my favorite stories now. I bought uglies after renting it from the library, I know. I am 22, somewhat out of the teen stage. But damn, this is a great story. I guess it pulls on personal strings to having struggled with eating problems and feeling ugly, and by ugly I mean unwanted… kind of how uglies are made out to seem in the story. It really hit home for me, and like some of you have said, it’s amazing how fiction can impact peopleรขโฌโขs lives…
My favorite parts of the book are when Tally “escapes” ANYTHING. Whether sent on missions, tasks or just running for her life. I kept smiling at the pages when another hover board scene popped up. I cried all reading SPECIALS i guess it’s expected. I read it faster than the other two mainly without having to balance classes… Sadly I finished the book with a brink of hope for Tally’s world. I like the fact she remains special. I like how she cures Dr. Cable and I like chaos, good chaos. Anything chaos is better than controlled silence. ๐
I have to say that Scott has a great sense of humor and it’s not corny in the book it fits. I liked the Harry potter reference on the spoiler description up there. ๐
Mister Scott Westerfeld, I really am impressed with your writing. The very first page of Uglies had me captured… I mean really… “cat puke”… ๐ I mean, I don’t like cats but I would never try and feed cats to get the right color puke. That was odd, original and catchy (obviously) I read all three books and will probably read them again before Extras comes out. I’m excited. Kind of want another Trilogy, Scott, sir. 3 more? huh? huh? HUH!?!?! ok. I’ll chill out. I mean it’s only… *counts* 10 months away.
after actually reading some of the other posts, I see a lot of people loved Zane and were sad [or mad] that he died. Sorry if I may have offended anyone with my heartless posts, but I still couldn’t care less that Zane died. [And sorry if this has offended anyone too] Have a nice day =]
I agree Talshad. Yeah Kell, Tally would have made a greater statement if she turned back into an Ugly. And Kell, I’m sorry for your loss. I’ve always felt closer to David because his presense is so relieving, warm, and comforting. He’s a protector, and I like that. And I think that the ending leaves room for continuation.(Tally and David will probably later restrike up a relationship). I just hope that Tally’s redefined a relationship to herself.
And as for Zane lovers, I have’nt heard too many nice comments about David either. So I think we’re even.
And Rose-la, I enjoyed the great escapes too! And you’re never too late to read Scott Westerfeld, Welcome!
Yea Rose-la, I’ll be 112 before I stop dreaming about riding on a hoverboard next to David =D
i reallllly didnt like the way specials ended
everything was different
and why did zane have to die?!!
cant he come back to life on the fourth book or something and end up with tally, but then again i also what tally to be with david and i HATE how shes a special
why cant she just be pretty?? ughhh and i hate how everyone is like all scrambled i thought it was better when each town was under controlled it was more fun and there was more adventure and sneaking around now everything is under control and boring
I kind of see what you’re saying Rachelle on the whole social order of like Diego and Prettyville. Which evidently lacks excitement and risk. I’m telling you, volume one was golden. But I still love the trioligy as a whole.
i hate it that Zane-la diez!! i luved him,:'( abd i hated the way specials ebeded!! i sounded like there should be another book!! ugh! i cant wait till da next book!! and there should b a movie cause dat would be hecka COOL!!! but how would u fing over 200 pretties?
*ended i need spell check lol!
i wonder if Diego is actually San Diego?
TELL ME PLEAZ!!
i hav the whole trilogy!! but now i am readin pretties again cause i luv Zane-la and i wish dat it waz me kissin him n not Tally-wa
that would be awsome if lik zane-la was da main character in extras n he waz lookin 4 tally-wa wouldnt it? dat would be hecka COOL!!
I was wondering if Deigo was actually San Diego too Chima! Actually, Zane’s not the main character because I’m pretty sure that Zane isn’t rising from the dead anytime soon, but who knows? I believe the narrator of the Extras( is that the true title anyone?) is some new female character.
I really hope that either Sussy, Dex, or that other guy are the narrator in Extras! But still my confusion on everyone elses views of “Specials” stands. Can someone that was mad when Zane died [pretty much 99.9% of the people here] explain to me the great attachment they felt to him and why he should not have, because it baffles me? And also why you [if you did] hate the way the book ended? It pretty much explained itself, so there were no unanswered questions burning in your soul… If someone who was against Zane dying and didn’t like the way the book ended could please get back to me on these, it would be very much appreciated =]
Wow Kell, I forgot all about Sussy, Dex, or that other guy; what happened to them? Yeah, and why is it that most Zane lovers usually hate the ending? Is it because Zane didn’t magically reappear from the dead, or is it because Specials ended on the note that Tally’s now w/ David? (Sorry if that sounds too harsh anyone, I’m just trying to understand).
Doesnt sound to harsh. Think its a little of both, but most of all that she is with David. I am happy that she is with David, but am talking for my friend who hated the ending for that reason. She still thinks Zanes coming back in the next book. (But i say no way!)
OMG! I was so sad when Zane died. I loved him! I didn’t like David 2 much. ๐ I wanted Tally and Shay to be better friends.
So what do u thinks gonna happen in the next book??
ooh Talshad-wa, don’t hate my Zane…..
I agree w/ you Tally, I’m PRETTY sure Zane’s dead. And I REALLY wanted Tally and Shay to be greater friends(did you see that chemistry in Uglies!) too Leah G.; I was waiting for it. And Leah, I don’t really know what is to be expected in the next book(which is awesome!), but I’m guessing there’s going to be some environmental disaster since scott Says that Tally is supposed to make an appearance, but I don’t really know. What Do you think Leah/everyone?
Oh, and did Scott ever clarify where the exact location of Uglies is taken place? Is it still on earth; in what’s left of the United States, etc.? Or was the definite location never said; and its solely up to our imaginations?
well the reason i hated the ending waz because it just ended with them goin 2 the wild. what happens next?
Cchime-la, I think that’s the beauty of it though, you know they’re going to go out into the rest of what’s left of earth and do something amazing, but you just don’t know what, it’s all up to your imagination. And I have this theory that in the next book, although it’s from someone elses POV, something will happen, like a big change or something momentous, and all the readers will smile to themselves any think ‘That was Tally and David’, like stuff that happens in the background that you really have to notice [like in Mel Brooks’ movies =] Know what I mean, or am I rambling? Thanks for your input chime-la =)
sorry, spelling error: “themselves AND think…”
Scott,
First of all, I am not expecting a reply to this because I know that you don’t have time to answer every letter written to you. But, it would be GREATLY appreciated if you read this.
Uglies – This book was wonderful. I have a book club and I did this book. I felt such a strong bond between Tally and David, I LOOOVED David. When I found out there was a cure, my jaw dropped. And it stayed open for the next half and hour. I liked how you made a character that didn’t exactly ‘like’ Tally (Maddy). The ending was genious.
Pretties – This book was my favorite out of the three. I thought it was great how you brought a whole other civilization (the cannibals) to the story. I was great. I could spend days talking about this book, so I’m just going to stop there.
Specials – This book was FANTASTIC! I loved how there was conflicts between the characters, and how Tally had to chose David or Zane, Pretty or Special. I felt really connected to Zane that when he died, I was sad for the next couple days. I also felt bad for Tally, how she rejected him then right when she wanted to get him back…he was gone.
I never really was a big reader. But ever since someone recommended Uglies to me, I have never been bored with reading.
Now that the series is (supposedly) done, I don’t know what to read! I don’t think ANY book could ever come close to being as good as this series was.
I hope there will be a fourth book.
I may die from waiting so long, you know.
:]
Once again, thank you Scott Westerfeld.
I was trying to make that reply sound insightful and smart.
I tried.
But, I looked back at it and it’s not.
:[
After my friend Katherine told me to read it, I read the whole trilogy. It was really a thrilling story! I didn’t want Zane to die. No! Why must the good die young? David great, but I like Zane better. Whenever Tally and Zane kiss, a smile comes on my face cause I want that to happen!
Whenever David and Tally kiss, I was smiling too, but I liked it when Zane first met Tally and kissed her. Favorite part ever.
Iam reading Peeps right now. Soon, I want to read The Midnighters, and the Rising Empire!
And I will never forget to read The Extras of the Trilogy!
My favorite books of all are Pretties and Specials! But I like the Pretties better than the Specials because there is more bubbleheadedness people! Like Tally and Zane!
๐
Do read the Peeps and DEFINETLY the MIDNIGHTERS Zella(I like your name)! And yeah, I liked the Pretties better than the Specials too, but Uglies is still my all time favorite!
well, now im bored because i dont hav a book 2 read, i have read part of uglies and pretties not specials because my frend is boroing it. u never know if zane can come back, lik the doctors can make a way 2 bring the dead alive, that would be cool.
I wish Zane-la hadnt died but it needed to happen i think. i do want a move to be made but it better stick EXACTLY (im sorry i just needed to capitalize that) to the original story. I got all my friends hooked (i got called at night because one of my friends couldnt sleep without knowing what happens in the next book) I sometimes say bubbly or happymaking or annie-la sorry for my post being random and bogus
i hav stayed up till 2 o’clock in the morning readin all off the books.
i just finished Peeps yesterday, and am half way through the last stand as of now. its not my fav of his books but its pretty cool making.(i sure did learn alot.) My fav of his books so far is The Uglies trilogy, then the midnighters then Peeps and then So yesterday. Their all really fawesome though.
i felt bad when zane died but i liked how david was still with her in the end… i sorta liked how the end was the letter that Tally sent back to her friends… still i’m thinking about it i think it’s sinking in now!!! LOL!!!
write me asap:)
Awww i havent read that Specials book yet, and i jsut found out about Zane’s death….. That is SO sad…. i always liked him…. he understood her wild ways. Maybe he changes in Specials, but still. He shouldn;t have died :'( im soooo sad nowwww Anyway cant wait to read the book byebyebyebyebye
ah ha! people dont like the ending! the ending is ok, but it just needs more to support it. i haven’t read the midnighter series or peeps or so yesterday. tell me how those books are and i will consider reading them, thanks bye bye! ๐
Are you KIDDING me CHIMA-LA! READ MIDNIGHTERS! Midnighters is awesome! The characters are so dynamic,the concepts are insane, and midnighters is so ironically realistic that its scary(scotts good w/ that), and there’s great comic relief. Though as a warning, midnighters, as a whole, is a lot to digest(you’ll definetly understand what I mean when you finish the sequence).
Peeps was hot, and pretty provactive.But the scene is a far stretch from the Ugly world( you can practically see scott’s characters walking down the streets of New York). But again we have awesome supernatural concepts, you should read the 2 books. I believe they’re a pretty fast read. And a great comic relief after the complexity of Uglies and Midnighters.
So yesterday, I thought was cool, and the only book that has the narrator with some mutual contact w/ their parents. The characters were cool, but its REALLY seems like REALISTIC FICTION. But I like the morals in the novel, and relationships between the characters.
Well Chima-la and others, if you haven’t read them, you’ve got your hands full.
Oh, and last comment on the whole Zane/David battle. I think that everyone is ultimately torn between Zane and David; regardless of how strong or weak your feelings are for one or the other.
I mean Zane lovers, what were you feeling/doing in uglies, didn’t you have some mutual feelings toward David?
And David lovers, you couldn’t feel any sentiments towards Zane’s death?
I think overall:
David= Rusties(TallY)
Zane=Pretties(Tally-Wa)
Which Tally do you like?
the “ugly” Tally (i guess i shouldn’t say that because there were some times when she was free of lesions while pretty, too , but you know what i mean)
i never liked Zane
I absolutely worshiped the first two but , i dont know specials disappointed me , not because it was bad or anything i just never wanted it to end.. EVER. and YOU KILLED OFF ZANE. that brought me to tears after all the sacrifices tally made to save him and you killed him. That really upset me.
But praise for uglies really it was the BEST book i have ever read seriously , David was a nice guy in all but he seemed i dont know , i just didnt really take to him like i did zane , zane was tallys first love if i could have rewrote the book , i would make shay die not zane. Shay did surprize me at the end although , as well as dr. cable. All together your books were quite bubbly-making[Look now im talking like a prettie.]But BROVO scott , amazing take on Early teenage years and the issues you dealed with Ie: Anorexia and cutting yourself.
Oh yeah and by the way , they should so convert the trilogy into movies , I would go see everyone , your movie would so terminate eragon!!
FANTASTICXO
CAROL
Chima-la i totally agree with Deminsiona. U have to read the midnighters. It is totally cool. There are some really interesting and factual parts in the peeps and so yesterday, and they are good, but no where near as good as midnighters! READ MIDNIGHTERS!
Midnighters rocks my world
read it, whoever hasn’t
anyways, since this is an uglies/pretties/specials link i might as well talk about it a little
i can’t tell you how cool it would be for Jessica(midnighters) to live until Tally’s time and meet her
THAT WOULD BE SO FRIGGN’ SWEET!
read midnighters NOW
Yeah Tally and Xavier, everyone who hasn’t, MUST read Midnighters. And it would be SO fool if Jessica or Midnighters period merged w/ the Uglies(Don’t want to say any Midnighter spoilers for those who haven’t read.) But I’m seriously beginning to think that Uglies,Midnighters, and Peeps are connected somehow/ but maybe I’m just imagining.
who knows? (well, scott does)
maybe thats what all this Extras stuff is about
hey that would be totally fool. if Extras was about the books somehow joining, it would probably end up being the best book yet.
Wouldn’t it! And is the book really called “Extras,” or its just a book that CONTAINS extras? And if the books were/are connected, who do you think came first, Peeps or Midnighters?
Thank you Xavier, on the whole post of how you liked “ugly” Tally better- you said what I’ve been trying to for a month now and in 2 lines =] Demensiona, I was thinking that Peeps and Uglies were linked- that’d be so fawesome for the Extras! I’ll get my butt to the nearest bookstore ASAP because I have yet to read Midnighters and have heard nothing but good things about it- also read first chapter of So Yesterday on this website and REALLY wanna finish it! Haven’t heard anything either way on the Risen Empire, any comments? NO SPOILERS PLEASE!! But RIP ZANE, why would you want Shay to die? I admit she can be harsh, but she DID get this whole book started- don’t forget that. Without her, Tally wouldn’t have found out anything and would just go on being a pretty like everyone else. So, Shay’s a bitch, but you gotta give her props =]
i haven’t read Peeps
can i have a synopsis?
it’s about vampires, is it not?
yeah peeps is about Vampires and how they are related to science.
Demensiona- i think that peeps would come 1st and then midnighters, but i am not totally 100 percent sure why. i think that the book is actually called “Extras”, but thats a good question.
OMG I LOVED the Specials and im so sad thats its over ๐ Omg i cant believe Zane-la died! Im so sad i like loved him!!!!!!!!! oh well i guess ill get over it but any way. Arg i forgot i keep thinking about Zane-la ๐ Oh well… i really dont want Tally-wa (if there is a 4th book) to get back together with David it would be really weird seeing as Zane-la just died! OMG i liked the idea of Shay and Ho and Fausto and Tachs (i think thats how you spell their names) Starting the Cutters that was kinda cool. I’m confused wat happened at the end of the Pretties wat did Shay-la do to Tally? She like fell asleep or something that confused me and then like she woke up a Special.. which was SO cool! but any way I NEED ANOTHER BOOK IN THE SEIRES TO READ IM GOING CRAZY reading other books. I also thought that the Specials had a bad ending because there was a CLIFF HANGER! like you just dont do that in a Trilogy but any way…… yea so if anyone has any other comments on my post pls reply to it! it would be apprceated!
Xavier, all I can add on to Tally’s sypnopsis is PROVACTIVE PARASITE POSTIVES( Its, fool, hilarious, hot, kinda gross,in New York, Learn some biology, and a pretty fast read; Enjoy!).
And interesting Tally,at first I thought midnighters first because Peeps feels so contemporary but now, as I think about it, midnighters feels like it goes right into Uglies(Last Days would leave you hanging for a bit). But then again, wasn’t the last days like the end of the world/ Rusties(peeps?)? Though I don’t know.
Tally- Wa, sorry, but I barely remember exactly what happened in the end of Pretties(read it a year ago/ Need to read again). I don’t know, I just remember Shay-LA coming out of those helicopters w/ a Special face. But I think I was confused too. As for another series: read MIDNIGHTERS, PEEPS, and TWILIGHT(Stephenie Meyer), if you haven’t already; Blue is for Nightmares is pretty good(If you’re in that really realistic fiction mood), and as for a single novel, you should read Shades Childern by Garth Nix, enjoy!
Demensiona- dont want to spoil Peeps for any one who hasnt read it yet, so i am going to continue the talk on the joining of the books on the last days spoiler zone.
Tally-Wa – i just thought that Shay gave
Tally a shot which made her fall asleep(i mean they basically do plastic surgery i am sure they have shots to put people asleep). Then while she was sleeping brought her back to Dr. Cameron and had the specials operation. but maybe i am being to literal.
Okay Tally on Spoilers(good thinking). And no I think you’re right Tally, the ending is probably really literal and I’m just making it more complicated for myself than it really has to be. I REALLY need to read pretties again because DR.CAMERON isn’t ringing a bell. Was he/she a doctor/ scientist for the reservation? Gee, shame on me.
BRAIN FART! i havent read it n a while either meant to type DR.CABLE NOT DR.CAMERON. i knew something was wrong with that last clip i typed. i really need to read it again. lol. shame on me!
OHHH i am going to a valentines dance this sunday, and there is going to be a professional face painter there, so i am going to bring the cover of SPECIALS and have him paint that on me. ( i am finally going to become a special.) lol
Oh Tally, that’s a relief, but still, I REALLY need to read Pretties again because “I” should’ve caught your “Brain Fart.”No,still shame on me too. Oh and do you mean Tally, that you’re going to have the painter copy the designs/patterns on Tally-Wa’s face onto your own? Or the whole actual photo on your arm or something? Either way, totally FAWESOME! And good luck on your transformation, that’s so Fool!
i am going to have him paint the designs on Tally-wa’s face onto mine. i am so excited! lol about to leave right now.
Totally Fool, bye Tally. And oh my gosh, Uglie’s taken place in Seattle, The smoke in Canada, and Diego in San Diego(I guess that’s pretty random but straight forward/probably just saying that because I’m a native.). Fawesome, the locations definetly says a lot. But I still have a question , the settings aren’t floating in the air/space right?
what settings????
feel my born-in-seattle uglyville power. muahaha.
I had the Special designs once….hehe….homecoming….
I LUV THIS SERIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry, just needed 2 have a moment.
You’re a San Diegan, Demensiona?
SCHVEET!
I used to live there, but then we had to move halfway across the world to some God-forsaken town in the middle of NOWHERE!
I couldn’t get Specials until this January because our bookshops are so out of stock!
I had to get it offline
I miss San Diego
Currently yes, Xavier, but not for long(Arizona isn’t too in the middle of nowhere I don’t think).
I bought Specials online too but they have copies in the GOOD bookstores in San Diego.
But nothing’s really changed much in San Diego/ Hence the population uproar, and architecture(could use a better word).
But I think change is good sometimes, can’t stay in the same place all your life, can you?
no, I suppose not
I didn’t live there that long, though
you could say that my parents are gypsies
I’ve never stayed in the same place more than a year
I haven’t been in a yearbook since third grade
but it’s great
I just got a little attached to San Diego
I like moving around and seeing all different varieties of STRANGE people
(San Diego is SEETHING with homeless people; can’t blame ’em though. If I were homeless, I’d go to a place that was 70 degrees year round and food was comming out the wazoo)
Variety is the spice of life, no?
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY EVERYBODY!
No Happy Valentine’s day for me yet(got about six hours to go)! Yeah most parents have a way of treating you like a piece of luggage, but it is pretty cool moving around and experiencing NEW things. But I guess you CAN get a little too attached to the people of San Diego(they’re for the most part hilarious), homeless included. But the temperature doesn’t feel no where Near 70 degrees! All my life living here, and its NEVER been this cold. And sure Xavier, variety IS the spice of life.
And I can’t wait to spice up my life w/ “Extras!” I’m making the countdown!
what is the countdown?
you know how long!
(good going Demensiona, im glad YOU got us back on topic!)
hey i just read that Extras is going to take place in modern-day japan.JAPAN! That is sooo cool! That should bring a twist to the setting that is already burned into my mind. i cant wait!!!!!!!!!
I still cry WHENEVER I see SOMETHING that has to do with the Uglies trilogy. WHY’D YOU HAVE TO GO, ZANE?!?!?!?!?!?!? We all miss you ๐ You were so nice to Tally and she just ignored you… that girl is EVIL!!! :@ ๐ Me want my Zane back… why’d you have them split the pills, Tally? It’s all Tally’s fault! Sorry Tally, BUT YOU’RE STILL A SPECIAL!
Didn’t Scott say that Extras comes out in October? So Currently Xavier I’m just making the countdown till the month of october(happy birthday to me!), we’ve got 231 days to go until October first!(The exact date should be announced later on in the year).
And yeah I know Tally, Japan!(I keep on thinking that Uglies is set only in North America, Fool)! What’s that going to be like?
And Hi Johnna, I don’t believe I’ve seen your name before so WELCOME!
omg did tally’s (or whoever it is thats on the cover of specials) ear scare anyone? it so… scary making? it looks gigantic and almost wax like compaired to the rest of her face. and the inside cover is her nose and eye and that scared me too. but i never realy thought of taking the slip cover off untill like 5 seconds ago. but i didnt cause i love that front cover too much. my friend is going to draw a flash tattoo on my face in liguid eyeliner 4 haloween cause im being tally. when zane died i was like TALLY THIS IS SO UR FAUKT IF U WERENT SUCH A SELF ABSORBED BRAT HE WOULDNT HAVE WANTED TO CHANGE 4 U AND HE WOULDNT HAVE DIE. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. ๐
omg that was totally deep! Zane’s death (sob sob), ok im over it. i thought about it and after the tears i realised Zane had to die even though i didn’t want him too. Scott was right in ending it like that even though i wouldn’t have minded shay dying. its kinda funny at the beginning of pretties i was like who is this Zane guy but by the end i understood how Tally found it hard to chose between them. anyhu as with any trilogy one of the good guys has gotta die (well in the ones i have read)
Well ImInLoveWithJonathan, I never noticed Tally’s ear until you said someting. But let alone, Tally-wa as a special ,is freaking horrifying. And yeah Nanette in any GOOD series, something major, rather that be death or dissapearance, has to happen to at least one of the central characters. I’m just stumped as to why Tally-Wa did not turn back into a NORMALIE/uglie. What statement was she was trying to convey?
Sorry on the typo, take out the second “was”.
Only a slight spoiler, but just to be sure I’m putting it here:
After having read the book, I think Tally’s theme song should be either “Hollaback Girl” or “Stupid Girls.”
I particularly think the line in HBG,
“…gonna give it my all, gonna sock it to you,
That’s right I’m the last one standing
Another one bites the dust.”
>:D
Omg! I can ot belive that u killed Zane
But ya know what? Tally and david were meant to be. They are going to go off and eventually have 8 kids. I know it. I con feel it in my blood. lol
Buy the way, scott, your a but head for not making tally the main charactor in extras. You cant write 3 whole books with tally and have us fall in love w/ her and then change the book. So not fair! ๐
Ya know I sort of kinda hated the ending of specials. Why did Zane dye?
I also really didnt want the series to end! I love these books?
And Extras better be really good or Im totally gonna cry cause you didnt put tally in there and none of your books will be good without tally. ๐
This is totally a new person. these are my views on the books. my friend is totally an idiot for thinking that it was sad for Zane to die. i never liked him. He just was not a good character. i am so glad that tally and David got together. And they WILL HAVE 8 KIDS!!! You just don’t go off in to the jungle with someone and not get married come on.
It is person number one again
Sorry my friends an idiot
marrid????
person two: Come on they will and like why wouldn’t they.
Well the point is zane was ment to die and we’re glad that he did and that David came back. Oh yeah, we both love your books. So does my sister. Bye
person one
we’re???
we’re glad that zane died???
sure
see ya!
I really hope they come out with amovie.It would be so cool if I could see what Shay and David and them actually looked like.I have predictions but I dont know if they are right.
Scott:Did you ever make up how they looked.I would really like to see what they looked like.Please reply if you can.I would really look forward to it.
Wow, we’ve got a lot of newcomers, WELCOME! Well Hikari, Tally-wa’s surely independent. And Al and Kay, believe it or not but Scott, or writers period, don’t really have control over their characters/ authors usually say that GOOD characters have a mind of their own. So yeah Tally won’t be the main character of extras, but knowing scott, this new narrator should be awesome. And I’m glad that Tally ended up w/ David too. And Allison, there is an Uglies movie coming out next year, so it’s definetley awaited!
I just finished the book and i’m so sad Scott killed Zane, but happy David and Tally are together. And Demensiona your serious uglies is becoming a movie!?!
HOLD UP!
Have I been hearing right?
AN UGLIES MOVIE IN THE WORKS!
HOLY CrAp!
What does Scott say about this?
A rumor? I hope not
I am so happy that they are coming out with a movie.I’m definetely going on oppening night.
Demensiona:How did you find out that there is an uglies movie coming out next year?
Wow, you guys seriously haven’t heard? Well on post 379, Stayin’ Icy told me to go on google and type in Uglies movie. Or easier, go on to
http://www.themovieinsider.com/m3666/uglies/ (I’m pretty sure that’s right). We’ll be seeing Uglies on the big screen in 2008!!
Thanks I just figured that out.Its gonna be so cool.
You’re welcome Allison, yeah the uglies movie is going to be SO fawesome! And Xavier, I”m not really sure what are Scott’s thoughts on the movie, but I would love to find out!
I just figured out about the movie, too. I found it when I got curious, I was thinking something like, “Come on, They -have- to make a movie!”
I actually got through all three books in..record time. I am now working for a English Project focusing on this trilogy to gather more readers.
I read the first book in two days; a Friday and a Saturday. Second book in one day, A Saturday (The Following), and the third book I read in 2 days, Wednesday and Thursday.
While I read the part about Zane I was sitting in my first hour class(Piano class, I teach a special ed student) and I actually..Screamed. On accident, of course. I was like “No!” and everyone looked at me.
Let’s just say, I felt -really- stupid, and I quickly gained my stupidness when I said something like, “I forgot my pencils at home”
I can’t wait for the movie- Or for Extras to come out.
I’ve read Specials all the way through twice. And it made me cry each time, you know, even while I was doing that make-weird-faces-so-no-one-sees-you-crying thing. Which makes your throat burn and then you do start crying and have to run to your room and sob uncontrollably on your new gold bed sheets…
Anyways…I’m very excited for Extras because I was so upset about Zane -sniffles-
Gosh Caytee, you read the triology super fast! I compeleted the series in about a year and a half(I had to wait for pretties and specials). Yeah it’s pretty embarrassing reading the triology while you’re around other people/ I always ended up smiling and squealing like an idiot on most parts. You know Rainy, I was never really emotional(in the depressed sense) while reading the specials(maybe because I read specials months after I finished preeties, so the events didn’t have as great as an impact as I wanted them to). But yeah I can’t wait for Extras, approximately 227 days to go!
OMG ZANE DIES NNNNOOOOOOOOOOO I LOVED HIM SO WHAT HAPPENS IN SPEICALS IN FULL PLEASE!!!!!!!
Why did u make zane die? that is so evil
—–::::–(xx)kurby
Why did u make zane die? that is so evil
—–::::–(xx)kurby
wow uglies the film?? no freakin way who do you they will cast as the characters?
do you think they will be famous or unknown? and who do you think would be appropriate for each role?
just a little sutin sutin i was thinkin
I have no clue who they will cast for Uglies . I just hope that they’re upcoming actors. Like maybe Tally could be(If she’s not already going to be casted for Twilight!) Emily Browning(for those of you who don’t know/series of the unfortunate events). I don’t know, I just want to see some new/ or fairly fresh faces. Hey what songs do you think they should use for the movie/triology? I like:
Frou Frou:”Let go”(uglies)
Imogene Heap:”Must be dreaming”(Pretties)
Imogene Heap:”Hide and Seek”(specials)
the Killers:”When you were young”(?)
the Killers:”Read my mind”(?)
And this other fawesome song that I forgot the group and title, maybe its like the “17 Anthem” or something. I don’t know, it just sounds very futuristic.(Uglies).
WOW! i loved the uglies trilogy! i was soo sadden when Zane died though. i actually cried because i didn’t want him to die but maybe that’s the only way Tally could have ended up bacl with David. I wanted her to be with him and was soo mad when in pretties she just pushed him away! it was horrible. i waited 15 days for pretties just to read pretties in 2. I LOVE THE UGLIES TRIOLOGY!
i havent yet read all of the book, but I can tell that it is a good one……..I have been told that Zane dies….is that true????
An uglies movie!!!! holy ****
sadly yeah zane dies but i still love david he better be cute in the movie even though hes an ugly
CANT WAIT FOR THE MOVIE I WISH I COULD DIRECT IT
Yeah David better be hot because I hate when producers make characters fugly. I totally wish I could direct the movie too, or a least have some kind of say in it. Oh well, at least they can’t destroy the fawesome settings of Prettyville/Uglieville/The smoke, can they?
I Absolutely Loved the books! I think the book could’ve been better but I hated that Zane had to die and I think that the end should’ve been when Tally went to see Shay.
This book sounds like my own life with all the boy problems, and desisions!!!
Scott Westerfeld keep up the wonderful books,and make the movies really good!!!!
ok i haven’t read the book. AAHHH!! But my friend told me about zane and everything and i cannot believe it!! NOT ZANE!! but i was really pleased with the 1st two books. i finished pretties in about 3 days but i read it before uglies which i am told is not a smart thing to do. anyway im now reading uglies and i didn’t know there was going to be a book after specials!! YAY!! These books are addicting. I cant wait for the movie also!! Go ugly-minded pretties!!!
am i the only person here that’s 12 yrs old?
theres acutally really goin to b a movie about the books?????cooll..wens it cumin out?
Wait…what? a movie? WHEN??! wow. totally oxygen-missing. Can’t wait!
Oh welcome all newcomers!Wow Joesfina, you’re 12? Gee, I don’t think I would’ve understood Uglies when I was 12, maybe that’s just because I was a little slow(he,he).
Um as of right now, I don’t think there’s been a set date for the UGLIES movie, but I know it’s coming out next year.
Hey did you guys see those fawesome Japanese covers? I’m DEFINETLY getting a copy(somehow)!!
Oh and this is a little off topic but
has anyone read Scott’s EVOLUTION’s DARLING? The vocabulary in that book makes me feel like a freaking idiot! I can’t understand a sentence in that book for s***, and I’ve tried so hard to. I guess that book is for some ADULT ADULTS, or a freaking college professor!
Wow, I’m so glad that UGLIES is so simplicit(in the vocabulary sense, heh heh).
Im only twelve too.
dem(dmeensiona is that ok if i call u that? ehehe)how old r u then?oh hi allsion nice to see sum1 my own age!
sry misspeeled ur name demensiona*
will they make the movie pg 14?
Yeah. You can go to google and type in uglies movie and click on any one of the first couple results. Although it doesnt come out till 2008, i cant wait till it does.
well i havnt read all the books cuz i just now found out about them…and i started off reading pretties instead of uglies bcuz my library only had pretties…i guess they didnt realize it was a trilogy……….u think i shud red the first one ..or it wudnt make much of a difference?
i feel so bad cuz evryone else writing so properly and im not .lol
i think you should read uglies first. you wont really get some stuf in pretties if you dont read uglies first. and uglies is really good.
oh ok thanks!
if u dont mind em asking..bu im just curious ..where r u frm?
Im from texas near dallas. where are you from.
I’m from Argentina but currently living in Trinidad
Oh hi Allison, you’re twelve too? Wow, impressive. I suppose there’s a very wide variety for readers for Uglies, that’s great!
Oh Josefina I’m 15 and I’ll be 16 around the time Extras(the new book) comes out, in October. Oh and don’t worry about your writing, I don’t really talk the way I write unless I’m at school or something. Oh and as Allison said, definetly read uglies first, its my favorite, and Pretties will spoil Uglie’s awesome ending.
Oh and I’m just going to forewarn younger readers that ,if you’re considering, Peeps/Last Days is a little provacative.(Then again I’m not that much older than you guys are, and at 12 I was probably reading WAY worse material, ha ha).
Thats cool your from Argentina. ive never been out of the u.s(except when i went to niagra falls). Whens your birthday month.
AHG! I cannot wait untill the movie come out next year!!! Better yet, the Extras this year!!! Im so happy!!! anyways, I totally loved this book! LOVE LOVE LOVE!! Although I must admit I liked Uglies the best… But thats because Tally is really annoying Pretty and really mean special… and because Im totally in love with David!! Thats right, David, not Zane, DAVID!!! I will say I was really really sad when Zane died and all… but I was more sad when I thought David might be dead in Pretties!!!!!! Anyways, yeah, Im totally IN LOVE with these books!
Alison, you say your from around Dallas?!?! Me too!!! Thats totally fool!!!
my birthday is in may..urs?…if evryone died after the oil contaminating bactria thing came out where did tally and their generation cum fm??or were there survivors?…..do they explain this in uglies?
Wow. I absolutely hated the ending. Well not exactly hated it, but Tally got me so peeved! She loved Zane, but could not see past the shaking. If she had just took some time to think about him again, she could have helped him live. After all, it only said his brain though the meds were viruses. Either way, ur books are my faves…no matter how many people had to die…or get lost in the blue time.
Ya you know i’m talking about the Midnighters. But ill go complement and complain on that blog.
But wait, one more thing. Is it true they are already making a movie about uglies? U know after i read the trilogy i thought u know, this would require so much special effects that it would take a while to make. I CANNOT WAIT to see what they had in mind, who is playing these people, and how deep they are willing to go to create the SPECIALS
What ticks me off is when people read specials, then uglies than pretties ,or something like that and don’t read uglies first.
U WON”T GET THE BOOK AND REALTIONSHIPS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and there’s a book coming out this year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pleeeeeeeeeaaase make another one.
Oh and in the sims 2 for pc, i so changed the way tally was sick of zane.She kissed him in the woods, then found him in the hospital, then ended the war and…well that’s where i am now. I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITHOUT UR BOOKS SCOTT!!!!!!!!!
Oh and what’s that evolution book about that u wrote?
If my fave character dies, i swear im going to rehab…
my bithdays in August. It says in uglies that only few survived the oil eating bacteria thing. i wonder how long after the bacteria stuff that tallys generation was created. probably not long after
Savannah thats so awesome you live in dallas. Do you actually live in dallas or near dallas.
near it, Highland Village, itty bitty town right by Lewisville. If youv’e even heard of Lewisville… But hey, we’ve got the #1 High School Marching Band in the state so we cant be that bad…
I live in Coppell. Its also a small town. Its by lewisville too and irving.
Wow, there’s a lot of info/questions flowimg around, um lets see, why not start w/ Josefina.
Hola Josefina, hablas espanol, verdad?(ha, just practicing a little spanish, I don’t even know if I said that right). Um as for the the whole oil bacteria incident, I think that the reservation people and the smokies or something were the surviors, and I guess everyone else descended from them; but I’m not so sure.
Wow, it must be cool living in a small town, I’m currently living in the pretty big city of San Diego, CA.
And Yumi Kimimi, are you in need of a book? Well if you haven’t already read them, Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight and Garth Nix’s Shades Children are great alternatives.
WOW!!! i havent read this page in a really long time. (lots of new people thats totally fool). i just got back from a trip to Virginia for the regional high school dance festival. i wanted to see snow sooo bad, but i wasnt able to.( i am from Florida so i never get to see snow)
Demenisiona- i just ordered scott’s “Evolutions Darling” i should be getting it in 2 weeks. besides the advanced vocabulary was it a good book? And i am also going to be ordering the Uglies book in japanese that is so fawesome!
haha pretty impressive…not bad at all..oh and i jus got my copy of “specials” lol..even though its kinda late since evryone here has alredy read it ..o well lol..but i wanna read it slowly so that it dusnt end too qucikly..g2g bye!
Um you see Tally, the advanced vocabulary was the problem. I barely got to page 14, I’m clueless. But from what I can understand so far, it seems pretty interesting and there’s some great quotes/ it’s very futuristic. I bet if I sit down with a dictionary, it’ll be an awesome book. Oh and I’m going to be ordering the japanese version of Uglies too, maybe on amazon?
Oh and gracias Josefina. Yeah I would definetly read specials slow, it seemed like I blinked, and I was finished w/ the book. I think I’ll read specials again just for the fun of it, to refresh my memory for Extras!
OH MY GOSH!! Did anyone see the protag for Extras!!! I can tell just by looking it gonna be SOOO FAWSOME!
well im not glad taht zane died even tho i always wanted tally and david ot be together, or atleast friends!! but im really glad that their is a 4th cuz im dieing to now how davied, tally, and shay all end up!!! also i wonder what Dr.C is up to, or is she done whith and ur not going to us her any more? and what about tally? is she gunna have the special surg gone??
xoxo alexa
also if that -wa and -la thing go by sound then what would my name be? cuz it just sound weird eather way if u ask me? idk
I know Extras is gonna be awesome. That cover is awesome.
i am loving specials!!! i don’t care if im reading spoliers right now even if im only about a quarter through part 3. poor zane though. I didn cry because i was in class. i think extras is gona ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i read the end with the letter… it was cool. go Tally! :)(:
I know Savannah, is that cover not totally fool! (But Ada looks a little over 15 to me, I wonder if the society in Japan has the surgery at sixteen too).
Oh and Alexa xoxo, I HOPE Tally-wa’s not a special anymore; hey what if she got a completely different surgery, and transformed into some other social distinction, fool!
And Allison, I just hope that extras freaking thick because 300 pages is just not cutting it. Wow october’s going to fawesome, not only is Extras coming out, but for Stephenie Meyer fans, so is ECLIPSE! Oh, October is going to be book heaven!
I’m sorry, typo: “AYA looks..”. And LE, Extras IS going to rock!
i cant wait to see whats going to happen in Extras… and i wonder if all of the other citys are going to use “the new system”?? and is Tallys city the only city that has the leisong things??
xoxo alexa
leasion**
Hey what’s “the new system” Alexa xoxo? And I believe that Tally’s city is the only one w/ the leision thing, but the other cities might have some other form of the sugery. But there’s probably going to be this environmental issue in the cities , like global warming, since Tally-wa’s making an apearrance.And I really think it would be fawesome if Tally-wa appeared as an ugly. I think she would really make a statement.
Then again maybe she already has, towards the end of the book. She’s now all 3 of the social distinctions. She has the mind of an uglie/smokie/TALLY, the somewhat apperance of a pretty, and the strength and or fitness of a special. A physical reminder of her journey/encounters. And now I’m realizing that that’s pretty fawesome.
And since she’s w/ David now, maybe she’s accepted herself not as an ugly,pretty, special, or even Tally -wa, but as T A L L Y, and that’s TOTALLY fawesome.
Im pretty sure that all the cities have he lesions, But Tally’s city is the only onw with Specials. Im pretty sure thats how it worked…
Well Savannah, I’m pretty sure that Diego didn’t have leisons, but some other cities might. Maybe each city has their own unique and independent system. And Tally’s city was just too noticeibly drastic.
Hey you know how scott usually makes books revolving around important issues like oil and cutting, what do you guys think will be the next topic(s) scott will bring up? Maybe not just in Extras but maybe in future upcoming pieces?
Ah…midnighters. U know, now that i think of it, that would make a real good movie!
Specials…WOW! So how long have they been making this movie? God…how are they going to use the special effects. I mean for pretties! AND SPECIALS…i need to see the specials. They should use the girl on the front cover of it. She is all too perfect…..and creepy.
Yeah Yumi Kimimi, they should definetley make a midnighter movie , that would be beyond fawesome.
And I they’ve been making this movie probably for months now. And due to the rumored person that they’ve casted for Tally, they should definetley use the girl on the cover.
I thought that they actually said that Diego was like that because of Maddy’s cure…?
Hmm, I’m not sure. So wait everyone in every the cities had leisons? Okay well I’m sitting right now w/ specials in my hand and on pg.255 it says:
“Tally saw that it was a hospital. That made sense. Anyone from outside would be checked for diseases, and for injuries and foood poisoning from the trip. And since this city really was the New Smoke, newcomers would have their bubblhead leisons taken away as well. Of course, Tally thought. Maddy’s pills didn’t have to work perfectly anymore. The runaways would all wind up here, where a city hospital staffed w/ real doctors could take care of leisons.”
Well I guess that answers that, the other cities DO have leisons? Huh, and I missed that how? Ugh that’s it, I’m sitting down right now and I’m reading specials over again because obviously I read it wrong,gee.
hehe. Nice. I dont remember reading that at all though… I think I just asumed that was how it worked and convinced myself I was right. I guess it turns out I was…
Yeah Savannah you were totally right. But its comforting to know that I wasn’t the only who overlooked/doesn’t remember that part. And the ironic thing was, that I just cracked open the book to that page. But yeah, that whole leison thing really makes Diego just the more significant.
very delayed- but isn’t Dr. Cameron from House? good show…
Hey Kell! Long time no see! But what do you mean? I mean I know a Dr. Cameron from House and House IS a fawesome show, but what are asking exactly?
Oh God no. WHY ZANE!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I kept thinking, okaydon’tpanicWHYhe’snotreallydeadWHYit’sjustasetupWHY. But I loved the book. Stayed up until three in the morning reading it with a flashlight.
OMG!!!! this book is like totally hot. it was on fire. like what happened to ZANE(hot stuff) was like totally uncool. i mean like whatever. tally and zane should of like been soul mates. you know. catch you later home dogs.
OMG!!!! like read the one one above. Its like SMOKIN’ HOT. Because I like a poet man. Like listen to this its my best wow word sentence: A single riple breaks the glass like surface of the glossy black lake, as a ghostly ship sails through the ambiguous dark of night. WHAT!! WHat!!! WHAT NOW Fool!!! like T.T.T.K.A. time to tatally kick !!! well you no!:} i’m like totally wired.if you no what i meen.dude. i’m a piece of white chocolate that just won’t stop meltin’.
i am so frickin’ pissed.. i’m going to have a bf.
huh??..i knw that u got that frm white chicks but still…huh?..lol
yeah, haha I did the same as IndigoEyes. I couldn’t put the book down at some points and some times I wanted to through it across the room (that accured very often)haha. I read the books really fast which made me mad, like i read Specials in a day, because it was over so quick and I wanted more. I liked David more than Zane because he was her first love and he knew her before she turned pretty. I also got really mad at Tally for some of the choices she made and I didnt really like Shay at all, but with out her there wouldn’t be a series.
Scott, I read that your writing the Extras book and that made me really happy but its so far away! Oh and also in the Specials on the Part 2 page I saw the Toa Te Ching thing so I looked it up and read some of the chapters and it was really interesting!
Well, anyways the book was totally AWSOME! It was actually nothing like I thought it would be when I saw the book. I didn’t even know it took place in the future..kind of sad. haha
-AllY
(wow, that was really long haha)
P.S. the song “If Everyone Cared” by Nickleback reminded alot of the series(listen to it if you havn’t heard it)
Hah oh yeah and you should come to Arkansas, no one ever comes here. I highly doubt that would ever happen. That would be pretty sweet though. We arn’t hillbillies like everyone thinks we are. We are actually pretty smart haha ecept for the whole “we don’t know how to spell our state possessively” thing but we figured that out haha
Demensiona and Kell-
u guys watch House? that is the best show that there ever was besides CSI!!! They rule
~but yeah i dont think that Dr.Cameron from House is the Dr.Cameron from the book. Lol their personalities totally clash~
Heck yeah I watch House!! And Tally you watch CSI ?!!! That’s so fawesome, I love Law and Order SVU too!
-Okay but I seriously don’t remember any Dr. Cameron from the book. You guys are not referring to DR.CABLE are you? If not, could you guys refresh my memory of a Dr.Cameron?
-Yeah that was confusing me too (Dr. Cameron)..I don’t remember any doctor except for Dr. Cable either haha
i dont know a dr. cameron either…i also watch house and csi with my mum!
Ahhh! I like JUST finished specials! It’s totaly the bubbliest book out of all three! And it was totaly dramatic and sad-making when Zane died. I cried. And everyone says that they like Zane better than David, but I like David better. But it was still sad when Zane died. *tear*. But I’m upset that I’m done the whole trilogy! But I realy want to know what happens from weir Specials left off. Like, do Tally and David end up re-falling in love with eachother? What happens in Diego after all the distruction is fixed by the cutters? Is the war realy over, or is it just the beggining? It’s friving me insane! But, anyways, I loved all three books! They were all amazing! Great job Scott!
xoxo
Wow, the whole Trilogy was excellent. i spent a week beating myself up waiting for my library to get Pretties and Specials in. I finished each in an hour.
I also think its so funny how much you can involve yourself in what you read. AND NO COMMERCIALS, thats why I hate T.V.
Ohh yeah, and I have a crush omn Zane too. I feel like my boyfriend died. Why you gotta do something like that?
Hmmm.. oh and extend the trilogy, like they did all the Final Destination movies. PLEASE?!?!
Scott, do you like photography because I was looking around on here and there are alot of pictures? I love photography! I actually used Specials in a picture and it looked so AWSOME!
Well, I just was curious. Bye!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BA9lN3sZ0sQ
WATCH THAT!!!
okay, okay, I know its porobably not the real Trailer for the movie… but it looks so FREAKIN FAWSOME!!!!!
ive law and order svu too demensiona. Its so awesome. That trailer you had savannah was so cool. i dont know a dr.cameron either. maybe dr.cable
Welcome Newcomers!!
Yeah Ally, I don’t remember any Dr.Cable either. And cool, you like photography Ally?That’s fawesome , me too!
And cool Joesfina, you watch CSI too!(Miami’s one of my favorite).
And gee Ryleigh, l hour each?I can barely finish 3 chapters in an hour. Impressive!
And Jayme-wa, I think some of the loose ends/questions, will be tied/answered in EXTRAS!
Cool Allison, you like Law and Order SVU too! Again, fawesome, Mariska Hargitay’s like my idol, and I love the humor and the last statements at the end of each show!
And Savannah, that trailer is freakin fool!
Ugh I have some fawesome music videos from youtube for the whole triology but my computer won’t allow me to create hyperlinks!
(UGLIES):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SS7R08vt9c
(PRETTIES):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bftYlGNUlUg
(SPECIALS):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cpSv2mNhhc
Whoa, what’s w/ my post? Here’s the fist video again:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SS7RO8vt9c
And If THAT doesn’t work, these were the songs:
Uglies: Let Go, by FROU FROU
Pretties:Must be Dreaming, FROU FROU
Specials:Hide and Seek, Imogene Heap(same as the others).
Sorry for the technical difficulties!
Oh sweet! I love “Let Go”! And it does go along with Uglies.
I also like Law and Order, and CSI, but I like NCIS more!
haha..
wait! hold on! i havnt been on for a LONG time! so what is with the “youtube” thing? the trailer?yeah that “youtube” thingy. i wanna see it if it is something to do uglies/pretties/specials then i want to see it! if not, dont bother replying. thankyou!
wait!(again!) did i miss something?? are they REALLY making an uglies movie!?!??!??!?!? if they are…..I WILL BE FIRST IN LINE WITH MY TIKETS!!!!!!!!!! lol so tell me if they are. ta ta 4 now! ๐
About the YouTube thingy haha
it does have to do with uglies/pretties/specials. Its like a preview thing for the movie..I don’t think it’s real though, but it might be
But they are making the movie soposivly..alot of people are talking about it on the Westerboard thing
you up there. there not nothin better than Alias.those stupid shows you were talkin about.
gosh i sure hope there makin an uglies movie. and its TICKETS. your spelling sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OhMiLORD…just started re-reading Specials for, like, the fifth time. The part where Tally-wa and Shay-la destroy the armory is so icy-making! I’ve always wanted to use the word icy…and the suffix -making. But anyway…the ending is so totally sad-making. So not bubbly. But I love it anyways. Zane-la was so flippin’ awesome, but I absolutely adore David. He rox my soxx!!
Uhm…are they making a movie? If they are, how totally bubbly! (Okay…I’m totally over-using bubblyhead slang…))
Yeah Ally, doesn’t the lyrics of “Let Go” go w/ Uglies! Yeah and NCSI is totally Fawesome!
And hey chima-la, long time no see!
And g-volleyballplayer, are you kidding ME!!!!!
House, CSI, and LAW AND ORDER SVU are TOTALLY FREAKING FAWESOME!
And hey sarah !Welcome(I don’t think I’ve heard you before)! Yes David is Fawesome and they’re TOTALLY making an uglies movie, meant to aire next year.
check this website out:
http://www.themovieinsider.com/m3666/uglies/
Demensiona: Yeah, it does very much! And I love your name! I’ve never heard it before..yeah NCIS is my favorite! it was actually just on, now I’m watching the Unit and CSI is next! Today day is a good T.V. day haha
Sarah: I’ve actually only read the books once but I can’t wait to get with the book I’m reading now so I can read them again!…yeah i didnt know about the movie either until I looked at this website! It’s hard enough to wait for Extras but now we have to wait even longer for the movie! ahh! I CAN’T WAIT!!
Does anyone know where Scott is?? He hasn’t replied to anybody in like forever..
Thanks Ally, I actually just made it up from the word DIMENSION from Midnighters(you should REALLY READ the triology if you haven’t already)! Yeah, my real name’s Jasmine, but I usually prefer DEMENSIONA! OH and I watched the unit, Dateline NBC to Catch a Predator, and Judge Judy yesterday! And today is DEFINETELY a good TV day!!!!! Oh and can’t wait for the movie either!!!
And I was wondering where Scott was too Ally. Hmm, it’s a msytery….
WOAH! is it March 22nd where ever you are because here it is the 21st haha (I’m in Arkansas) Yeah, I havn’t read Midnighters yet..it looks a little creepy but I think I’m going to read it anyway Oh and I thought that was your real name haha very clever but I like Jasmine too!
i like it to.its only the twenty-first here to in texas.
hey..dus scott hav an email address??..oh and hav u all heard about the earth hour???on march 31st the whole entire world (well the ppl who want to participate) is gonna turn off all their electronic things like lights and all that energy wasting stuff for one hour at the same time at 7:30 til 8:30 ( not exactly the same time bcuz of the diff. time zones) …jus saying if ur interested ๐
Um where I’m currently at(San Diego,CA), its Wednesday, March 21. I watched all of those shows yesterday, Tuesday, March 20. I’m pretty sure I have the right dates, I haven’t really looked at my smmallville calender for a while until now.
Cool you’re in Arkansas Ally, awesome! Um I think the situations in midnighters are scarier than the cover! It’s really awesome, but I would kind of warn you to mentally prepare yourself for the ending. If you guys think that Zane’s death was horrible, I don’t know what you’ll do w/ yourself after reading midnighters. I was depressed for weeks(I still have sore spots), but it was totally worth it, the characters are FAWESOME!
Oh and thanks Allison on my name, I thought I’d get creative.Cool you’re in Texas, Fawesome!
And Josefina I haven’t heard about that day. Well I’ll definetely participate, I’m freaking out about global warming! Oh and if you go on the main site and click on “contact me” you’ll have scott’s email, just make you have a hotmail account!
Oh haha Demensiona I just now found the Reply where you said you liked photography haha sorry! but I really like it I have some fawesome pictures with the book, it would be cool if I could like post them on here but haha I can’t!
Ahhh! I wished I lived in California! It a little dull in Arkansas in some places. Unless you like nature which comes in handy for me because I like taking pictures of flowers and stuff.
I was just playing Let Go and my big sister was like “Hey this song should be on the Uglies movie if they make one!” haha just thought I’d let you know that other people agreed to! haha
Okay, Demensiona I have a few questions. I was watching the YouTube videos and I was wondering
1. Is Imogen Heap and Frou Frou the same people because they both sing Let Go and they sound the same sorta.
2. Is the singer in Imogen Heap a boy or a girl cause they dress like a girl but look like a boy
3. How did you find these songs? they are really different and I’ve never heard them except let go
haha I was just wondering
Yeah photography’s awesome! Yeah I wish we could share and view pictures, how unfortunate!
Um I think when you lived somewhere too long, the glamour kind of fades. I mean San Diego’s pretty fawesome but I don’t think that it’s for me. I’m moving to Arizona. And nature’s glorious, I just haven’t been in touch with it too much.
Oh and that’s fawesome! I absolutely LOVE let Go, and the lyrics go ridiculously well w/ Uglies! Oh amd I listened to “If everyone cared”,by Nickleback, I love it!
Oh and sorry Ally, I just saw your comment.
Yes, Frou Frou’s like Imogene Heap’s band. Yeah and Imogene’s DEFINETELY a female. Oh and I heard these songs by browsing through amazon.com and from my sister. I love this kind of music, cheers me up!
Yeah, I listen to both of them nonstop! On the Nickleback one some of the words go really well but like the “I am alive part” doesnt really except being bubbly.
We are up late, or at least I am its 11 here its probally earlier there right??
Oh, and I love nature so much because I grew up in Stuttgart ( duck hunting and rice capital of the world) and its like the middle of no where and I love it out there! theres like no traffic out there or lights so you can see the stars! its FAWESOME!! oh and i get to drive out there! (im only 14).
Yeah the songs are awesome! Oh when I posted it was like 8 something. And I love to see the stars(I can actually see some at night but not many). Oh my gosh you get to drive fawesome!(I’m 15).
Whoa if I lived in Uglieville, I would have my operation in october, or would I? Ha,ha yeah right! The crims are crazy! Ha,ha just kidding, I would join them, I’m 98 percent sure!
Oh sweet! my sister is 15 and she and I started the books at the same time and I read all of them in like a week and shes just now starting Pretties and she keeps asking me questions about what will happen and its really funny because shes like begging me! well she would be leaving on April 2nd so it would be very soon..haha I would still have a while like I’m going to be 15 on the day after Christmas so yeah a LONG time!
Hmm I was wondering what happened to Tally’s city after everyting happened. Is it still Prettyville, Uglyville, and Crumblyville or did they like merge together so theres no more waiting until until certain ages to move?
Hmmm..(tell me if it said in the book)
i finally read the book and it awsome ecept that the trilogy ended. it sucked that zane died but i’m glad that tally and david ended up together. but zane was so much better than david i mean he was pretty and smart and tally should’t have stayed a special that part was really creepy and that ending there should definetly be another book( i know it was a three book deal).
hey is there going to be movies on these books
hi there is this really hot guy i know who looks like zane on the front cover of the pretties his name is hayden an he hotter then h-e double hocky sticks.
To Scott:
OMG i absoultley loved the entire series it was amazing! I was really upset that it ended the way it did but that was totally your call… but okay i have some un answered questions…
1.Do Tally and David ever get back together? like how they were in Uglies?
2. Why the hell was Tally so mean to David I mean i kind of figured that she loves Zane more but i mean Jesus, He was he FIRST LOVE!!!!!!
3. OMG where do u come up with these stories they are Fantastic!
enough with that!
any whoo I absolutely love your books! but they are extremely hard to find in the southern part of the US. I mean So far I’ve read the Uglies series and I mean I litterally just put down Peeps[by the way kudoos for u on Peeps!] any way i mean every bookstore i went into said they had never heard of you before and so I mostly had to order my books ofline, which doesnt bother me, but still why is it so hard to find good authors [like YOOH] works in the south??? what the hell? any way..great job
and i loved how u finally got Tally and Dr. Cable on the same side…kind of a shoker after she went all DICTATOR on every one you know?
well thats all i have to say
THANKS FOR HAVING SUCH A CREATIVE IMAGINATION SCOTT!
i’ve really enjoyed your books!
Where do you live Kelsey? And i know i was sooooo upset with Tally when she yelled at David like that. I was like “and just who does she think she is to be so mean to someone like David”!!!! I refused to like Tally for about a month after I read that. lol
Hey that’s awesome Ally on the whole sister/birthday bit, and well look on the bright side, you would have more time to think of awesome pranks! And I’m not sure what happened to uglieville, I don’t believe it was said, but I do believe we’ll find out in EXTRAS!
-Yes g-volleyballplayer there will be a movie next year
-Interesting Diane
And Kelsey (1). We’ll find out in extras (2). I don’t think Tally neccessarily loved Zane More, I believe it was a simple infatuation. And I have no freaking clue!Man I couldn’t/can’t?, stand Tally-wa! (3). And I would like to know an answer to 3 too!!!
And yeah I agree w/ you Tally, I LOVE TALLY, but can’t stand TALLY-WA!
I tried to convert my friends to Scott books, and they were all like, Tess, it’s got a FACE on the cover. Be reasonable. Becoming desperate, I tried to get mt parents to read Midnighters (bad move;don’t pass judgement), and they said, Frozen time? Sounds…alittle strange. Currently my mother is reading The Zombie Survival Guide. She’s calling MY reading strange?
LOVED ‘EM, LOVED ‘EM ALL!!!
Wow, so many posts….I have just recently read the Uglies trilogy and I love it so much!!! I agree with some of the earlier posts on the page, that there should be a second trilogy. Or possibly the ending of the Rusties, that would be totally pretty-making! ^^;
My mom and I both read the seris at the same time and both agree on that point.
Oh random bubble, my friends and I at school are pretty-talking. It’s really funny bacause the teachers that are listening in have no clue what we mean. Well sort of, I mean they get the general idea of the conversation, they just have no clue where the reference is from…. is fun to confuse teachers…
Wow your parents read IndigoEyes? Fawesome!
I loved them all too Gabby=)!(Loved uglies the best, Pretties the 2nd, and Pretties 3rd! A little ironic I think).
Yeah Alittletoolate(never too late!), an alternate series would be awesome and so would the clear ending to the Rusties. Wow your mom reads too? You guys are lucky!Pretty -talking, that’s totally fool!
hey people!!!
ok this book definately didn’t make me cry i think only three books have eve made me cry, and 0 movies, i only cry if the acctual ending is sad movies just don’t make me cry at all. hmm let me think the only books that made me cry were i captured the castle(though i don’t know why) Firesong (once againnot all that sad). and last but so not least silver is for secrets that is thesadest book i have ever read in my life it was so sad i cryed and cryed. i really didn’t want him to die. anyway thats all
hello…
the saddest book i ever read was milkweed by jerry spinelli…just thinking about the book makes me sad…but it’s one of my favourites.
Hi TallyYoungbloodrox!
Katie, who died in Silver is for secrets? I mean I thought he did(so dramatic!) but he…Have you read Red is for Rememberance yet? Yeah and I don’t usually cry for books either except for “My Sister’s Keeper”, I hate painfull situational irony! But I came close to crying while reading “Looking for Alaska”, “Shades Children”, and “MIDNIGHTERS” (Again out of shock/irony)!
Oh and I never read Milkweed Joesfina, but I think I should!
-And this is random, and I’m sure you’ve guys have probably caught this, but who are the people in Tally’ eyes on the cover of Uglies?
Wow. I was SO depressed when Zane-la died. I cried a ton! And if it were any other book, the ending would have killed it. But somehow, it was perfect.
I really loved these books. Are SW’s other ones as good?
Oh wow I didn’t notice any people in her eyes on the cover..now I’m goin to have to get my book and look at it haha brb
Okay I’m back haha
Oh my gosh, I can’t beleive I havn’t ever noticed that..Ugh thats goin to bother me now haha
Idk who that is..we need to ask the almighty Scott! haha
oh haha I like your name up there!^^^(Allie)
cool i didnt realize that she had people in her eyes until right now either. thats totally fawesome!
Maybe its the specials. i mean she was the specials “eyes” in a way, reporting everything that she saw, leading them to the rusties, etc… but i dont know i would also like to know who is really inside them.
OMG iloved the book it was totally asome totally kick ass! the part were zane died was ditubing but like you said it was a wake up call that Tally needed I like david he makes a great match for tally. scott u rock but like you said there were some parts that made me want to throw the book across the room!it was a damn good book i wish there was a fourth book
oh yeh demensiona…..i noticed the person in tally’s eyes also..it must mean sumtin othawise they wud hav touched it up..wouldn’t they?..but i’ve got no idea who it cud b
Welcome Allie and Jenna! Yeah ALL of Scott’s books I’VE are AWESOME(especially MIDNIGHTERS!) Allie! And I agree w/ you Jenna, Zane’s death was definetly a wake up call for Tally-Wa!
-Now back to TALLY’S EYES!
-Now Tally maybe you’re right w/ the Tally’s EYES for the Specials. I mean I’m looking and they/the person look like males. But let’s critically think about this.
Lets start w/ location, at what time(S) was Tally hiding behind/in some kind of banana leaves or something. I mean the only time that I remember Tally hiding in plant’s was for her first trip to Prettyville(and the cover looks like it’s daytime), and the time when Tally was in that field and the helicopters(what were the people called?), David? Or are the images not so literal, maybe their Tally’s thought’s of specials? But I’m not sure like Ally and Joesfina. Hmm… another mystery!
Scott?
Ughhh! this makes me mad..hmm well it looks like there is a camp or something set up, so??..I keep thinking about other times when she was pretty but I have to remind myself that shes not pretty there
it looks like it might be in the Smoke but whywould she be hiding except when the Specials come and take it over
grr now i want to read the book over to find out what it was!!
“The early summer sky was the color of cat vomit.”
That really makes me want to read the book haha
(I’m reading it again!)
I had no idea that there were people in her eyes. thats totaly awesome. thanx for pointing that out. i would have never seen that.
Haha yeah Ally, I’m reading it again too so that I’ll be refreshed for extras! I’m at the part when Tally and Shay are WALL SCREENING (I love the trip down memory lane.)
Oh and your welcome Allison, yeah I didn’t notice Tally’s eyes until I was looking really closely(Faning out the book to see Tally’s whole face and looking at the colors of the leaves).
You know what Ally as you said, I don’t remember what part it is but I think it’s the smoke too. But the cover is still a little confusing to me, Tally’s eyebrows are so perfect that it looks like Tally’s a pretty already!(Maybe that’s the point).
-Oh and some brief movie stuff,if you didn’t already know, fox has bought all 3 books and the one of the producers is the producer of ERAGON, so I wonder how that will look. And the movie has 5(max) stars, what ever that means. But still no casting!
For Tally “I” like either Danielle Panabaker, Emily Browning, or the girl on the cover of Uglies!But sadly, it’s not up to me!
Now I’m at the point where Tally just met Dr. Cable and is fixing to leave for the Smoke and I still havn’t found a connection to the cover yet
*Yeah she does the Pretty sort of but her skin and stuff isn’t very flawless
Well now i’m about halfway..at the part when shes in the helicopter with the Rangers and still no connection..its not this part b/c she was in the water the first time and the second time the only plants around were the white flowers and it was smokey
(they were call Rangers, Demensiona or as Shay put them “Fire-bug Eyes” haha
Gosh Ally, you read fast! Um okay, if it’s not the ranger scene, then where the heck is Tally!
Gee I’m stumped!Oh and thanks, RANGERS, yeah that’s it!
Oh and on the cover I noticed Tally’s skin too, but to me it doesn’t really look like acne or some other skin disorder(well maybe a little acne Rosacea). It looks like when you’ve just had like a Microdermabrasion procedure to clear your face , which burns your skin, resulting in some irritation?
“She opened her hand and threw the necklace into the center of the fire”
Ahhhhhh! (I’m at that part) I have to remind myself to breathe haha its very hard to read this part just because I already know whats going to happen..By the way still no connection? Yeah I’m begining to think she might be Pretty on the cover..but idk hopefully I will find out soon!
Microdermabrasion? wow thats a big word..well even though I didn’t have one of those, my face burns at the moment! yeah I went to the tanning bed thingys today and I went a little to long haha
*Oh everyone go to Justine’s site there is a funny picture of Scott hehe ๐
hey you didn’t post to long before me haha its 1 A.M. here so its probally 11 if i remember correctly
Oh my gosh you guys, I think I’ve found out what the images in Tallyรขโฌโขs eyes are, and the underlining meaning of ALL of the covers and
ultiamtely Uglies,finally, after 2 years!(Sorry, really long post but itรขโฌโขs important).
(Uglies Cover)-Okay if you remember back to the chapter in uglies called รขโฌลFACING the Truth รขโฌย (when Tally was face morphing with Shay), Tally says that she hates the RIGHT side
0f her face and she usually favors the LEFT. The coverรขโฌโขs trying to trick you. The front cover shows TALLYรขโฌโขS LEFT, her simpler Uglies face, and in her eye, I believe it is a closer/
Fuller image of David and the Smoke. On the back cover, It is TALLYรขโฌโขS Right, which appears to be her more defined pretty face and in her eye looks like a further image of Dr. Cable in a Special Circumstances room. Sheรขโฌโขs contradicting herself! And Tally usually hides behind leaves and other vegetation in order to make decisions and choices.
(Pretties Cover)- Tallyรขโฌโขs faced full on w/ decisions and complications.(Shay=Uglies, independence/Zane=Pretties, dependency). Lets start w/ Shay first, youรขโฌโขre seeing SHAYรขโฌโขS RIGHT (bigger),and the sparkle in her eye is hinting truth. (Now to explain Zaneรขโฌโขs death): You see ZANEรขโฌโขS LEFT and if you look on the back cover, thereรขโฌโขs less than half of
ZANEรขโฌโขS RIGHT side. Now though Tally loved Zane/the LEFT side,you canรขโฌโขt SURVIVE ON HALF A FACE. Saying that you canรขโฌโขt survive as a pretty.
(Specials Cover)-This is where Tally gives her answer/decision/solution.Weรขโฌโขre seeing TALLYรขโฌโขS RIGHT, the side she TRULY hates. Everthing(facial features) are really magnified now. The interior/less visible sketches and Tallyรขโฌโขs tattoo on her face illustrates the battle between Pretties and Specials. The interior sketches told Tally what she had become, and were the road maps for Tally finding herself.
tally is a side (uglies), Tally-Wa is a side(Pretties/Specials), TALLY, is a full image w/ her OWN diverse thoughts.Daivd saw Tally as a whole and David ultimately IS a whole. You yourself, are a full image(smokie). You see I don’t completely believe that uglies are merely just like us/ they are the human condition. In the chapter รขโฌลThe SIDE You Despise ,รขโฌย thereรขโฌโขs truth in that
SIDE . The RIGHT course was Uglie, in yet there was so much beauty( the flowers).
Covers as a whole:(1,Uglies)(2,Pretties)(3,SPecials):
(1).Choices/thoughts
(2).Flat-on Decisions
(3). Action/answer/conclusion
(Hair length signifies her journey):
(1).Long
(2).Shoulder length
(3).Short
(Eyes):
(1). Vision(images w/ bright irises)
(2). Clouded/weakening(just an iris)
(3). Blind(dark pupil/iris)
If you look on the side of the book:
(1).Lips and Nose(VOICING immediate thoughts/feelings, sensing).
(2). Eye(SEEING, you do see lips and a nose, but speaking was only an option).
(3). Ear(LISTENING, speaking was NEVER an option).
Listening= Wisdom
-Oh and again on the eyes: On the front cover of Uglies, Tally’s(yet her eyes are blue-green)LEFT iris is more BLUE.And on the back cover, her RIGHT iris is more GREEN. On Pretties, Shayรขโฌโขs iris is BLUE (uglies),and BOTH of Zaneรขโฌโขs irises are GREEN (Pretties). And on the cover of Specials, you can not see Tallyรขโฌโขs irises, because sheรขโฌโขs neither Blue or Green or Blue-Green, sheรขโฌโขs TALLY!
-Wow, what a lot to think about!
Oh Wow, thats confusing but it makes since kinda..It would be easier to understand is Tally was on all 3 covers I think..Did you get this on a website or did you figure it out yourself because if you figured it out yourself that would defiantly give me a massive headache!
YAY FOR DEMENSIONA!!!
Okay, I read it over with all the books in my lap in it makes more sense..
So for Uglies and Pretties what you see on the front happens in the begining and what happens on the back is the end right? Like for Pretties, on the front you have half Shay and half Zane but at the end you only half 1/4 of Zane, and like you said you can’t survive on half a face..
Am I right or am I totally just over thinking this??
Sorry Ally ,was that really confusing?Yeah, I figured it out on my own after I posted last night around 12. And yeah I DID have a massive head ache!
Yeah, you could also see it that way too(I never really thought about it that way), I mean I don’t think there’s really any WRONG answers but I don’t know. If you over thinked it, than I DEFINETLY did!
Well, I think I’m sticking to yours..It would really help alot if Scott could verify this but I don’t think he checks this anymore..haha Have you been to Justine’s blog, its really funny..there is a pic of Scott with a bike on top of his head (He is reallyworking hard haha)
Well I’m almost done with Uglies (pg 405) and there are alot of parts I didnt remember at all, Its really weird. Like the part when Tallys on the way to the Smoke and shes at the bridge and she has to make the “worst mitake”..I guess Izoned out on that part..idk
Who-o-oah, Demensiona. That was very cool. Quite dizzy-making. (I can’t believe I didn’t notice the people in her eyes before!) I had to read that twice before I understood it,and it would probably have helped if I’d actually had the books with me (my local bookstore and library are severely understocked),but that’s my fault. Wow.
Well I finished the book and nothing really stuck out so I’m pretty sure your right.. Now I’m half way through Pretties and I actually remembered evrything I read haha
Well I’m off to bed
Great news guys! Well, actually its not that exciting..okay i was bored so I looked up John Davis (the dude who bought the rights to make the movie) and he actually made some good movies here is the list:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/imdb/actor/nm0204862
well just thought I’d let yall know
(does anyone check this more than there own blog? haha i do!)
Hey guys!
– Yeah Ally I think it WOULD really help if Scott would verify that. And that picture of Scott is hilarious! Wow you’re almost halfway through Pretties Ally, Amazing! Oh and DO point out any off parts of my “Theories”, if any.
Yeah IndigoEyes, looking back, it is some serious DIZZY-MAKING, but the triology itself is pretty dizzy-making too.haha! And oh yeah, I just noticed all this stuff from going Uglies crazy at Barnes and Nobles a couple of days ago.(I read the triology through my English teacher’s copies!).
And Ally I’ve been doing some Uglies movies research too. Yeah John Davis and his wife Jordan will be producing the movie(s), I just wish that they’d tell us the casting. Yeah I think the look of Eragon is fawesome, and I liked the movie daylight. So I think that Uglies in some pretty good hands!
omg!!!!!!
I LOVE ZANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how could you kill him.
i borrowed my friends book and was like OMG ZANE DIES!!!!! and everyone looked at me funny.
i liked how you revealed in the end book that it was in california. i just wonder, were other continents like that
how could you kill zane? he was way kooler than david
Calliope: You will figure out if other continents are like that in October!! I can’t wait! Well, anyways hes writing a new book called Extras and it is set in China or Japan can’t remember..Tally is going to be in it but shes not the POV character though. Her name is going to be Aya..just thought I’d let you know..And when I talk about the trilogy all my friends look at me like I’m crazy too..i guess thats because most of them are “PrettyHeads” and don’t understand the book. Thats why I’m on here so much, because I can’t talk about the book to peole at school so I talk on here
Demensiona: Well in your “theory” everything seems right, but to me it looks like the images are the same, but it looks like one is closer than the other therefor making them different but idk..other than that sounds pretty good to me
oh!? my spelling sucks?! try this for a change ” wy du yuo thik mi sppileng suxz?” lol its ok i was typing to fast to notice my spelling. ill be good :)….so…is there really going to be a movie?? bye!
yeah calliope, why did he kiil him off?! it would be better to kill off like somebody else or something…BUT NOT ZANE!!!!!!!! ok ta ta 4 now!
hey! i found out they are doing movie!!!! I’ll be back with more info k????? ill keep you guys posted!
yep, they are! it will come out in 2008, thats all i know so far.
I like the First cover SCOTT!! It was totally FAWESOME!!!!! But the content in the book to me, is more important!
WAIT SCOTT, IS THAT COVER SOME KIND OF APRIL’S FOOLS JOKE?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GUYS!!!!! on the cover thats ZANE!!!!!!!!
yeah i know it is zane. everybody on the comments for it were saying itwas an april fools joke. i think it is to. if it isnt its really freaky
Yeah the cover’s probably a joke because I’m pretty sure that the Uglies world doesn’t have graves like that and since when did Zane have black hair? And isn’t extras about AYA meaning that Extras is centered around a completely different setting?
Hah I guessed you missed the part in Pretties where he died his hair black with Caligraphy ink..I forgot about it too until i reread it again
“And isnรขโฌโขt extras about AYA meaning that Extras is centered around a completely different setting?”
She was asking if she would ever find out what was happening on the other cotinents, and I was telling her that the next was going to be on another continent but it is a little after these book so I guess it is in a different setting
Oh my gosh that cover is FAWESOME!!!Yeah I’m Definetly pre ordering extras AND stephenie Meyer’s Eclipse!!!!
hii..umm..sry…i’m lost….what cover is everyone talkin bout?
The cover(s) for extras!
It’s on his regular blog thingy.
Hey you guys, this is a little random but here’s a track that makes me think about extras(what’s might happen/people) and or pretties(it MIGHT sound a little wierd to you)!(Just click listen to track)!
http://www.sideload.com/cb/track/?id=220282
i just finished the specials today it was so good!! am am very excited for the next book
I just finished reading Specials and my head was spinning so much i had to take a few minutes to just soak it all in! I am happy with the overall ending [and I always liked David better]..but i was hoping for them to end it with a kiss..but I was very happy with Tally’s reply. It most definately fit the story well!! I am left a happy reader =]
(and i can’t wait for Extras)
nikki- i always liked david better too =] they just seemed like they were ment to be
wtf i saw that youtube ‘trailer’ for the uglies film and nice concept but… you totally ripped those clips from Lost etc aha that did mek me laugh. vraiment
yeah i noticed that too i was like has anyone ever watched lost? lol
theres an uglies movie comin out? YAYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!1!
has it been cast already? i think people from this site should be in it. who would be better than someone who spends half their life arguing about the finer points of the book? huh? can anyone answer that?
Welcome all!! Yes there is an Uglies movie coming out in 2008 and I haven’t heard anything on casting yet,ugh, but good point!
Scott needs to stop blogging and friggin’ finish Extras, already!
Phenomenally put, Kate-la! We know the characters better than anyone they can recruit.
hmm, they should have open auditions!
You don’t even know how quick I would be there!
Gosh darn, I wanna act!
I wouldn’t even care if I were an extra! (no pun intended)
But I repeat:
Scott needs to stop blogging and friggin’ finish Extras, already!
You know there SHOULD be auditions, but since the movie is airing in 2008, I’m guessing that they already have casting(so why can’t they freaking tell us the casting list!)
But I don’t understand, how am I pre ordering extras if scott hasn’t finished yet !?!
-Well I wonder what’s Scott’s next project AFTER Extras? I’m hoping it starts w/ MID, and ends w/ NIGHTERS! Or at least an completley new series because I need another book/series to read because, I can’t keep relying on STEPHENIE MEYER!
If you liked Uglies (which obviously everyone on this thread does) , you really ought to read The Barcode Tattoo by Suzanne Weyn.
It’s kind of the same resist establishment kind of thing.
It’s in a future where credit cards have died out and money has become obsolete. Everyone is required to get a barcode tattoo on their sixteenth birthday. The tattoo is your life. Your bank account, your criminal record, your driver’s liscense, etc. Everybody loves it. But a few select teens don’t. They don’t want it. They become fugitives of the government, illegal.
It’s short, but it’s good. You’ll like it. There’s a romance reminiscent of a David/Zane kinda thing in there.
Oh, and if you like that, then you can read the sequel, The Barcode Rebellion.
They ought to hold you over for a while. Maybe not until Extras, but they’ll hold you over.
Oh yeah elodie, I have that book, but I was debating on reading it. I think I will now after reading the book I’m currently reading. Thanks for the book review!
Hey does anyone no if they are comming out with a movie and if they are when. cuz it would be fun to try out for thr roll of tally (oviously by my name)
too late…..ive already read both of the Bar Code books…….they were awesome!!
one more thing………..what time period are these books take place………the uglies series anyway……….i know the barcode series
300 years in the future!! haha i can’t wait to see what the cities look like in the movie!
OMG!!!!! THERS AN UGLIES MOVIE COMING OUT???!!!!!! I CANT WAIT TO SEE IT!!!
wats extras>???????????????
Extras is the fourth book to uglies. And I like Aya-la Scott!I wonder if in Aya’s city, if you get the operation at 18, because it said that some cities did that in Uglies, but I’m not sure.But I’m dying to find out!!
I know me too.I kind of like Aya-wa.I think it flows better.I cant wait for extras and the movie.
Hmm, I find it interesting that Tally especially, and Shay’s birthday’s are on September 9, making them:
Sun In VIRGO – ruled by Mercury – Planet of Communication
Element: Earth
Color: Dark blues, Grays and Browns
Gem: Sardonyx
Metal: Mercury
An Earth Sign
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Discriminating and analytical, you have a special talent for separating what is useful from what is not. You possess a naturalability to create order from chaos. As this is a mental earth sign your perfectionist tendencies can give you more than your share of worry and concern over small details.

I loved your books Scott and im so happy Tally finally got to do what she wanted. I wish some miracle would ahve happened and Zane lived but I guess that if Zane didnt die Tally would have forgoten all about David and I would not want that to happen either. AND I cant wait until Extras comes out Im gonna go and get it the first day!! I cant wait!!
*counting the days until Extras comes out*
Is it true they are actually making an Uglies movie!?!?!?!
i guess so. i just want to know if its been cast already and who is in it. if it hasnt been cast they should hold open auditions
I’m pretty sure the movie’s already casted since its coming out next year. But they’re just not releasing any casting info!
Although I think Tally’s going to be played by a new actress. Because there’s no news of uglies on any of the actress’ blogs, who’d I’d thought would be casted for the role. But I’m more than okay with fresh faces, the industry needs them!
OMG so they are really making an Uglies movie and its coming out next year!!! YAY YAY!!!! dreams really do come true!! lol
THEY ARE!!
REALLY!! THEY ARE!! THAT IS SO COOL!
or that is a more of question, should have used these: !?!?!?!
O yeah srry that was a question im not sure if they are or not..
dose zane die 4 real?? i want tally to be with david but why dose zane have to die??
hi
grayce: zane had to die because otherwise, david wouldn’t stand a chance. now that zane is dead, tally and david can live happily ever after
Well Zane also had to die becuase the rest of the book wouldnt really make since if he didnt die!
Because w/ the leisons and pretty making,Grayce(Wow I’ve never seen that name spell like that!) Zane’s pretty much an android.
Plus Zane was still a Pretty:The cover of pretties tells it all, his eyes were green(Pretties).Shay’s eyes were blue(uglies).And Tally’s eyes are/were blue-green(on the cover of uglies).But as we know consequently,NOW her eyes are black/dark(specials cover.
0mg!! i like lovee this series i wish you would come out with an uglies 2 or something!!
and i cannot believe zane died!! i was SO crying!
well keep up the good work!
WHY DOES ZANE HAVE TO DIE?
i seriously think you should write an alternative ending so Tally ends up with Zane not David.
No offense, but the way you describe him in Pretties makes you really attached to him
And you barely described david (ugh) just that he had an ugly face. He should end up with shay!
And tally should stay with ZANE!!
next time you decide to kill a character that was on the FRONT COVER of the previous book…think again!
im very disappointed in that…
anyways, about the alternative ending (i dont care if its a triology or not, make it another series if you care that much) you MUST bring back ZANE!! MUST!
tally can be some scientist and figure something out. and feel free to kill off david just dont get us to attached. its not good that way… it makes you throw the book across the room and makes you sad ๐
PRETTIES WAS THE BEST BOOK, cuz there was zane!
eww. please dont make a movie
its gonna ruin it
even tho it already is
but whoever plays zane MUSt look like the guy on the PRETTIES cover..dont make me hate it anymore than i already do
…can they still bring Zane back to life in the movies?
if they make sequels to uglies i mean, which they probably will
These books are officaly the best in the whole world you dont have to agree im just sayin whats true!!:) but if you are on this site posting stuff you probably do agree with me!!:)
I just finished Specials today, i thought it was great.
i did’nt like Zane dieing too much, he was the coolest guy (Peris was a wimp, Andrew was a barbarian, Fausto didn’t do much.)
I think Zane should have died (gasp), but not in a hospital bed. Either, Tally should have killed him by accident (not knowing it was him, perhaps by her hoverboarding around, then she jumps off, and her hoverboard keeps on going and cuts Zane in half), or Zane should have been killed because he doesnt have much coordination (like he fell off of something), or Shay could kill him to get Tally back to finding the new smoke.
Don’t get me wrong here, Zane was a great character, but the plot needed to move on. Tally needed an emotional jolt.
and Fausto is a cool name, a bit like Faustus, who was this guy (in a story) who sold his soul to the devil… which Fausto sorta did (sold his specialness to Maddy… whatever… something like that)
and why did Peris chicken out like that? Tally and him were childhood friends. in Pretties and Specials, he did’nt do anything.
and in England, ‘special’ (if you say it sarcastically) is like a euphemism for having mental problems. (which the cutters do)
sorry for the long post
haha nick…u cracked me up with ur alternate ending of zane’s life..sorry for whoever loves zane its jus it was kinda funny.I LOVE DAVID!!!
Hey nick! Yeah Zane definetly HAD to be killed off, although I knew he was going to die before I even picked up specials. Because like I said in the past, every GOOD triology needs one of the central characters to vanish or die off. But yeah, in the hospital bed? Hmm, it just felt a little too inconvinent and rushed at the time.
I wonder if Zane died a few blocks away from my house( I live like right by a hospital in DIEGO)!But I’m still curious as to why Scott chose SAN DIEGO, CA for the “New System”, I mean not that its a bad thing, it’s fawesome, but I just think that it’s kind of random.I mean diego’s pretty diverse and high tech(When going downtown when I was little, I thought it was New York,NY).And there’s a huge Naval HOSPITAL, huge museums, and huge(as in tall) buildings. And living here all my life, I can kind of picture “Diego”.But we still have those bubble-heads ,haha. Hmm, that’s interesting.
And hi I.Love.Boys. , I love David too!
today i finshed specials it made me cry when zane died but better zane than david. David can fight evil and zane is soo not as tuff as david not even close. GO DAVID!!!
i have 1 ? At first, did you hope Tally would get the operation? When did you change your mind? (Or did you?)
at first i did but when i leard about the lessions i did not and when az dided i tossed my book at the wall
at first i did but when i learned about the lessions i did not and when az died i tossed my book at the wall
i did that 2 tims srry bout that i have some spelling miskates like dided that was really died again srry
It was no surprise Zane was going to die. Mostly becuase this book seiries has no surprises. Although the author tries to make is FUN, and THRILLING! its not.
um… i knew zane was going to die. mosly because this stuff is cookie cutter.
You know what, at first I DID want Tally to become a pretty because throughout the fist volume, I couldn’t imagine Tally “Ugly” and in the beginning I wanted her to be w/ Peris. But when it came down to David and how happy she was, I didn’t. But the thing I didn’t know was that Tally would become a Special!!! I didn’t see that coming!
And hey david 4 life and just another critic!!
omg i feel so bad for zane… i cried for like 20 minutes its soo not right, oh well atleast he wasn’t like shot or something!
hey u people stop being upset at zane, all he did was love tally, and she loved him… i mean he dies to make it interesting omg yall r sooo rude its sad i mean he’s just a person, and david never told tally how he felt zane did, david is just some dude who knows about the wild cuz he’s always lived there, zane on the other hand has had the same experiences tally has had (except dieing) so realy there perfect togeather and, no, i dont think david completes tally even if she completes him!!
rae, srry but zane is a great person and i got hooked on him and i could not help but to fell sorry for him!!
Does anybody actually know when the movie is going to come out if there is actually going to be one???
IF THERE WAS A MOVIE IT WOULD KILL YOUR VIEW OF THE STORY… IT WOULD NOT DO ZANE JUSTICE EITHER! BESIDES IT WOULD BE TOO PHOTO ENGINEERED TO LOOK REAL, I MEAN HOW WOULD THEY HET THE HOVERBOARDING AND BUNGEE JACKETS RIGHT????
HEY, WHO THINKS SCOTT SHOULD WRIGHT A WHOLE SEQUEL TRILOGY CONTINUING FROM SPECIALS… I MEAN IN THE END OF SPECIALS TALLY WAS ONLY 17 YEARS OLD, AND I REFUSE TO THINK SHE JUST UP AND DIES OR SOMETHING!!!!!! ITS MADNESS!!!
so that was probably the best book ever written
i just finished specials about 15 minutes ago and im still pondering over how thrilling it was soooo intense
they really should make a movie!!!!!!!!!!
haven’t been on here in a long while, same stuff though, basically from what i read [good series, bad ending, why zane, why?!?!?!] haha, Demensiona, the dr. cameron thing, looooong time ago, i was referring to was cause someone wrote that and said they didn’t know why and i firgured maybe they were watching House…. it was waaaay after the fact, but hey, i wanted to put in my 2 cents [or sense?] it’s what i do. i must say i’m jealous of the UK and Australia for getting cooler covers than the US, lucky SOBs… by the way, does rae who posted on here happen to have the last name flynn?? and sorry if it’s not and i left you terribly confused. wow, absolutely nothing in here at all pertains to the Uglies series whatsoever. hmm, um, GO SMOKIES. there.
lol…i know this is kinda off topic but has anyone heard about wot akon did here in trinidad?..i’m reallly really sry but i’m jus curious..
omg that is so random!!! haha
Hi all!
You know what rae(cool that’s my sister’s name) on the whole Zane/David thing, I really don’t know. I just know that I didn’t like the person Tally was when she was with Zane.
And Chandler I PROMISE you, there IS an Uglies movie airing next year and there will be a pretties movie and a specials movie to follow.
And hi sierra!Producers ARE signed on to do Specials.(Probably around 2010).
AND hi KELL!!!!!!! Okay on the Dr.CAMERON bit. Yeah I liked the pretties cover w/ the creepy barbie doll on it with the measuring tape around the waist(is that one of the covers you were talking about?)!And yeah, DEFINETLY go SMOKIES!!!
Y hola Josefina!Lo siento pero.. I’ve never heard of Wot Akon. Hmm….
lol…welll akon is an american singer..umm do u know “smack that” “don’t matter” um.”belly dancer” or “mr lonely” well those r a few of his songs..welll anyway lol he came here to trinidad and he had a concert and he asked like 5 girls to cum up on stage for a dance competition..but one of the girls was underage she was 14 yrs old (u have to b 18 and olda to get into d club) and she started to dance all slutty(sry i dunno if we’re allowed to use that word in here) and akon was like practically humping her in front of everyone and d girl had snuck out of her house to go to d concert and she was the daughter of a pastor…the video is on youtube but i dont kno if they took it off….doesnt really matter cuz this is kinda really off topic lol…
O cool thanks so much Demensiona!!!
Oh AKON Josefina?Ugh I’m such a dunce. Oh my gosh are you serious? What a pedophile! Wow that IS pretty random.
Hey here’s a random question but who/what actress did you picture Tally as when you read the series? And who was more attractive? Zane or David(the way scott talked about pretties made you believe that they looked freakishly wierd, and David’s noramal, he should look pretty hot).
-I don’t know, I was just wondering as on an uglies note!
oh and you’re very welcome chandler!!!
sry but what does pedophile mean?
Oh I’m sorry Josefina. A pedophile is an adult who’s sexaully attracted to young children/teenagers.(crime).
Hey this sounds a little wierd for me to be posting on the SPECIALS SPOILER ZONE!Haha!(sorry guys,Law and order SVU syndrome)!
oh..thank you
oh you’re welcome Josefina!
Man I want to know the Uglies movie casting now!
omg omg omg~ im sooooooooo excited~ i hope there really is a movieee….. nd i want 2 kno wat the casting is.. cuz these books totally rox~ i mean, woot woot~
I really hope it’s not Hilary Duff and Zach Efron or something, that would blow…. I NEED fresh faces, that would help create the illusion that it was the future if it was actors we didn’t know and/or recognize. Me and Demensiona have gone over this, just wanted to say it here to get you guys’ opinions =] Also, for some reason I didn’t like Diego, like that everyone could be ‘normal’ I thought it was better when The Smoke had to hide and it was a few people. I know it’s good if everyone is just themselves, but I love the sneaking around and adventure aspect. Though for my sake, at least some people WANT to be prettified….
Is Extras coming out in October cuz thats what I heard??
Hi Elle, yeah I really want to know casting too but I really think the cast is going to be made up of some new faces. Because I’m pretty sure we’d heard about casting already if some popular celebs we casted. But like I’ve said, I love the idea of fresh faces!
Hi Kell!! Yeah Kell and I have talked about this and I/we can’t STAND some Hilary Duff pin up doll. And yeah I totally get what you’re saying about the smoke Kell, it’s just like you said, the secret’s out but I don’t know, Diego would probably look pretty fawesome on the big screen, but still.
But no, I just really wish that Tally turned herself back into an uglie.She’s just still too hard right now/ physically and emotionally. Ugh, TALLY come back!!!
Oh and yep Chandler,Extras comes out like october second I believe, can’t wait!
ok i just heard about uglies becoming a movie!!!
I m so upset though because i do not know when! ” dose any 1 no when it will come out!
—
Help Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry grayce, I’ve only heard the rumours, but no date. If I do I’ll let you know. Now I gotta go continue reading Midnighters- VERY ADDICTIVE, I’ve been reading it for about 2 1/2 hours- but this is the wrong place for that. Later. [Demensiona, I will write back soon, just realllly busy- you have not been forgotten!!!!!]
I’m sorry Grayce, but they’re not telling us anything!!! But I can tell you that the movie’s no rumor and that it’ll be on the big screen sometime next year but that’s about all!Sorry!
HI KELL!!!!!! Oh my gosh you’re reading midnighters!?!!! FAWESOME! I can’t wait for the show!!!!! Oh and noted Kell! Don’t worry about it, FULLY NOTED!!!
omg i’m reading midnighters too! well actually i’m done and waiting for the second one but that is off topic bad rae * slaps self repetedly untill regaining icyness* anyways i still think a movie is a bad idea!! but i would totaly watch it!
hey Demensiona, if tally changed herself back into an ugly it would totally kill the thought of independance as the last special/ surviver/ super specal type of thing!!
again… MADNESS!!!!!! yeah!
p.s. Demensiona , zane would be really hot, and the movie probobly ruin his intense look!!
*MADNESS*
*AHEM* I WOULD LIKE THIS COMMENT/QUESTION FULLY NOTED PLEASE!!!!
does any one think scott should write a book telling about the oil/bacteria/thing and who created the operation!?!?!
oh, and who thinks extras is gunna suck becaus *ahem* not from tally’s point of view!!!!?????!!?!~
these are the questions that haunt me!~!~!
ok rae has spoken ๐
*MADNESS*
WHO THINKS DR. CABLE CREATED THE OPERATION?? JUST WONDERING!!
*MADNESS* *COUGH* :p
AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS NOTHING BETER TO DO THAN POST REPETEDLY ON A STUPID SPOILER PAGE WHEN NO ONE POSTS BACK??
OK I’M SORRY THIS BOARD ISN’T DUMB I JUST HAD TO GET THE *MADNESS* OUT OF MY SYSTEM!!
*MADNESS*
ahh. i haven’t even read this one yet.
zane dies? ahh. although i really liked david more. somebody also told me that tally dies in the book specials. is that true?
rae- i had always thought she created it. ?
they’re making an “extras”?
uglies is becoming a movie? ew. haha i think that’s a bad idea…i can’t picture that in a movie.
I KNOW MOVIE=BAD!!
yea i think it would be stupid, especially if someone that’s in a lot of movies plays tally or shay, it would ruin the image the book portrays or whatever haha
like aaron carter playing zane. ew.
o and tally has to pick from zane and david AGAIN? i thought she did that in the pretties? and her and david were over officially. ?
and why DID tally even join the specials ?
waiitt so on the pretties cover the girl is shay? i always thought it was tally?
okay okay, Cedes- Tally DID join the Specials- ubt not by choice, she was forced, and she did NOT die…. I don’t know, Demensiona, from what Scott said aobut the ideas for the show and after reading the book myself [in one day, soooooo good, I’m wicked impatient to read the second!!!!] the show sounds like a crappy idea. MAYBE good as a movie, and only if they stayed teenagers. I probably will watch the show anyways so that way I actually have a right to critisize it though =D I need to hit Borders soon to get the next book, I’m gonna die soon… Again, wrong place for the Midnighters, didn’t spoil anything did I?…no, good. Hmm, this page is getting kind of redundant…
Hi rae, lets see were to start. That’s totally fawesome that you’re reading midnighters!! I think that the Uglies movie will be fawesome if and only they have good casting. Oh and I’m totally aware of the whole Tally independence thing but I don’t know, even at the end of specials, I’m still seeing “a” SPECIAL. Oh and you pictured Zane hot?
Hmm interesting… but wait I’m confused, pretties are attractive but they look wierd? Can someone define wierd? And uglies look HOW normal? I guess I’ll have to wait and see .
And Extras should be good, I’m intrigued to find out how Tally appears to the rest of the world, plus it’ll be fawesome to hear somebody else’s thoughts for a change.Hmm and I believe that the operation started before Dr.Cable’s time but hmm, I don’t know.
And hi Cedes, yeah the Tally on the cover of uglies should be casted but I don’t know about the people on the pretties cover(I didn’t really picture them looking that way). Oh and I think Tally’s flying solo right now but I could be wrong.
And hey KEll! And yeah I’d rather see a movie but a shows the next best thing. And they’re keeping the midnighters teenagers(thanks SCI-Fi)!
yes yes yes i picture zane hot and if they do cast the cover picture girl of uglies it would be “”fawsome”” whatever that means !!!!!
*madness*
IS ANY1 CATCHING ON TO THE WHOLE *MADNESS* THING???
OK THEN *MADNESS*
NOO!!!
I love Zane he was my favorite character, he was the cure!!! he was the cure for tally’s bubliness! ugh, i was sooo disgusted with tally for being disgusted by him and not being strong enough to overcome it and love him. he was her one true love and he DIED! wow. tragic.
and i have to say kuddos to mr. westerfeld. this is BY FAR indeed the MOST i have ever been emotionally affected in so many different ways by one book. a freaking book has done this.
genius.
yups i hear ya!
Hmm I think the gap, for me, between books really put me at an unemotional disadvantage. I think I’m going to start by re-reading Pretties and Specials.
And I get what you’re saying on the whole MADNESS thing rae, one of my best friends is just like that, except w/ anime MADNESS!
yup the books r getinG to me!!!
*MADNESS*
ahh now i really wanna read the specials lol
& i always pictured tally (as a pretty) on the cover of pretties, but then people were saying it was shay. ahh
ok, so i havn’t been on in a while, what have i missed??? anything BIG happen when i was gone???is there any proof they are making the ugkies movie yet, maybe a trailer to veiw?write me back
ASAP!! kk? oh and ‘I
yea i agree about the emotional thing
they don’t have proof or a trailer for it yet
i think the movie thing is a bad idea :/
:OMG!!! whydo ppl like david more??? zane was WAY hotter and he was like, uh, something unexplainable . he is a boy that is so cute, its hard 2 explain how cute he is. ๐
u think its a bad idea?? id love 2 see what it would look like w/out reading for hours!!!!!!
actually nevermind. if you go to IMDB and put in uglies in the search thing, there is a uglies movie and its coming out in 2008 :/
cedes are u there, i will be checkin in kk?
i know but there isnt much proof yet
yea zane is cute, but david has more like personality and likes tally for who she is
yeah your right…. bvut i loved zane!!!
he was an agel/daredevil
i would hate to become a pretty, or a special. it changes all of you, and it’s really stupid how people can’t even chose if they want to change back how they were before by the cure but nooo everyone has to be a pretty head. ahah random but yea. i just think the movie thing will be weird
ok bye cedes, c u latah ๐
i really hope they don’t get really famous people to play the characters like it’d be weird for lindsay lohan to play tally and aaron carter for zane. kg hjoh idk.
ttyl ๐
fawesome is an expression often used in The Last Days Rae =] Demensiona, do you know when the show is starting? Also, I think I’m done with this page, it’s repetetive…. and redundant [ha!].
oh kk tnx 4 the info !! i luv you all, you keeps me grounded ( not in the trouble way!)
*madness*
hey has any1 read peeps?????? if so let me know hoe it iz( but no spoiling it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) thnx
*madness*
i ment how!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
its right next to e i didn’t mean that srry srry srry!!!!!!
the madness is becoming exessive!!!
*MADNESS*
hahahahah
Oh I’m not sure when the show starts Kell, but it should be soon.
Hahaha’s right rae! Yeah Peeps is an easy read. Like I’ve said in the past, all I’ve got to say is Provacative, hilarious, raw meat, biology, and Parisite Positives! Haha, it’s great!
hey cedes, your right, it would b like aweful if like paris hilton played shay and brad pitt played david, like totally lol. ,c u latah! ๐
hey
ahh i was going to get specials today but they only have hardback which is $17 and my parents wouldnt get it? i was like ivfjg so i have to wait till SEPTEMBER until the paperback comes out. wtf.
wow! i absolutely loved the whole triliogy! i cried like a baby when zane died! but i guess her being friends with david is cool to, maybe a spark will be reunited between them while they are out in the wild together! either way it would still be awesome.
I am totally confused bout the whole Extras book. SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WAT ITS GONNA BE ABOUT. it would be greatly appreciated!
cedes, i totally feel for u cause i had to wait to borrow the book from a friend. it sux having very little $$ and not being able to buy stuff!
omfg! uglies is gonna be a frickin’ movie! they havent started production or gotten the cast but its still gonne be a movie! wow if i had a flash tattoo it would be spinning like crazy! somebody reply to calm me!! yikes!!
the suspense of it all is killing me…
this is cruel and unnatural punishment…
cool books being made into movies:
Uglies (duh)
Midnighters (well a TV show, but anyway)
Maximum Ride by James Patterson
The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
its great, because these are like my favourite books ever. If only Pendragon as well…
OMFG MOVIE=BAD HOW MANY TIMES MUST I SAY????
*MADNESS*
ok, rae, we people that would love to ‘see’ the movie want to and think it would be a fantastic motion picture event so keep your comments to yourself. than you. and i totally wish that the book TTYL would be made into a movie. reply buh bye! :)!!
Oh my gosh,you guys w/ the ACRONYMS!
Cedes/Emily you should try to buy Specials online, I bought mine in hard cover for like $8(not including shipping).
Hi Emily!As for extras, all we know is that the protagonist is named Aya, she’s 14 years old I believe, and Tally will make an appearance, what ever that means!
Wait a minute nick, Maximum Ride’s going to be a movie, Fawesome!!!! Oh and to add on to that list Neal Shusterman’s “Everlost” will be a move in 2009( Yay, Graduation year!!!)!!
Oh and as for the Uglies movie, it’s better than nothing, I mean producers are running out of material( so their turning to the real screen writers, authors!)! So yeah, I’m pro movie!
“Unless you really want to know about Dr. Cable dying on page 596.
(No, wait . . . thatรขโฌโขs Dumbledore.*)”
LMAO XD
i was so sad when he died. i thought he was going to die in the 5th book.. just for some odd reason. but he didn’t. and i was like “yay he’s alive” and then he died ]:
… anyway. i thought the ending of specials was really good. i mean i was sad that the trilogy was over and everything but i wasnt like “man. this sucks”
AND I AM SOOOO HAPPY THAT THERE IS ANOTHER BOOK COMING OUT ๐
-goes on amazon to order 7th HP book and EXTRAS… oh and a pendragon book, but that doesnt really have anything to do with this topic-
peace&love
OMG WHAT? THERES GOING TO BE AN UGLIES MOVIE?!?!?!?!?! AND THERES ALREADY A MIDNIGHTERS TV SERIES???
gaaah, not having cable sucks!
i wish i had a flash tatoe (sp?) ha. i would loveeeee it. even though im really dont like regular ones…. but flashhy ones? AWESOME.
may 8th?!in this website its already my birthday! yay!!!!!!!hehe sry i like putting random comments..
haha HAPPY BRITHDAY PERSON ABOVE
hey, uh, i really dont like the end of specials because what happens next? what happens to tally & David? shay & fausto? sussy and dex??? i want to know so bad!! and what about peris?? what happened when he didn’t go off the balloon?
i need answers because the book just ends….just like the Giver…..ok so if anybody can answer me that would be fantatsic!! thx n buh bye
hehe thank u sweta
ew i hate the giver. haha.
o and sry i havent read specials yet.
chima-la
OK THE POINT OF THIS BOARD IS TO VOICE YOUR OPINIONS SO DON’T EVEN GO THERE I HAVE JUST AS MUCH RIGHT AS ANY1 ELSE DOES SO IF YOUR TELLING ME TO KEEP IT TO MYSELF YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST LOG OFF BECAUSE YOU OBVIOUSLY CAN’T HANDLE IT!
Hey Sweta! Um the midnighters show shouldn’t aire until towards the end of this year(fall?).
Hi I.Love.Boys.! You’re a Tarus, cool! Oh and happy belated birthday!
Chima-la I’ve read the Giver four times and I STILL don’t understand the ending. Hmm I didn’t really enjoy reading it in sixth grade, but it was okay reading it on my own while in tenth grade.
And cedes you HAVEN’T read specials yet?!Oh my gosh! Hmm well at least Specials will be fresh in your mind when you read extras!
And rae, you’re a riot.
i know….. well i read the book in 7th grade and everybody in my class was like”what happens next???” so i just wanna know… and rae millions of people want to see the movie so if u wouldnt tell us the movie is bad that would be great cause what if a person wants to see the movie and you say “movie bad movie bad movie bad movie bad movie bad” that person wont wanna see it because you’ve know the book longer so they would listen to you and not see the movie…and MOVIE GOOD MOVIE GREAT MOVIE SPECTACULAR MOVIE FANTASTIC!
and F.Y.I. i can handle it and I wont log off.
X ) and i think(this is my opinion) that your opionins are not good for the ppl that have just read the book n wanna c da movie.
i knowww. i need to read the specials badddlyyy. i read the giver in 7th too, i slept during most of it cuz we had to listen to it on that voice recording thing. haha
I just read the Uglies trilogy this weekend – wow so great!
I was so upset when Tally ditched David in Pretties for Zane. The whole book I was thinking… ummm where is David?!! Each page I thought he would pop back up.
Don’t get me wrong I liked Zane, but I fell in love with Davidรขโฌโขs character in Uglies.
Then at the end of Pretties when Tally yelled at David and hurt him – wow that was frustrating. I just keep thinking that being a Pretty was messing with her head.
I am so glad Specials ended the way it did. I liked that Tally and David are together but us (the reader) not really knowing where their relationship is going. Friends? More then friends?
I am sad there will be no more Tally at the narrator. I am looking forward to Extras, but it won’t be the same.
Great series! This series ranks up there with Stephenie Meyerรขโฌโขs Twilight as one of my favorites!
well i would like to say that i loved the Giver but kinda didnt like the ending cause of not knowing wat happens. i like reread the last chapter 10 times to figure it out. no luck. i would like to say that it ends happy with him ((cant remeber his name read it like 2 years ago and my head is filled with uglies trilogy stuff!!)) finding this city or w/e and leading like at least a part way normal life…
And omg i cant wait for the movies!!
bye to all ya’ll!!
i am officially starting a poll!!!!!
Who did u want tally to end up with more?
Zane or David
what state do all of u live in cause the time on this says 8 o’clock-ish but for me its like 4-ish
oh ….aghh i havnt finished pretties…….agghhj i left it somehwere.dam it now i read this……grrr
ok w/e chima-la
Hey Chima-la!
Hi Melissa! You know what, I was in such great misbelief of what Tally had said that I only remember that part it someone else recalls it. And YES UGLIES totally ranks up there w/ TWILIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!There’s kind of the same thing going on w/ the whole David and Zane thing, except for w/ the whole(twilight) EDWARD(!!!!!) and Jacob(!!!) thing. The difference is though I’m definetly pro David, but I’m a little torn between Jacob and Edward. But if I had to choose, it’d be Edward CULLEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-Sorry, enough Twilight talk
So as for your poll Emily, I vote for DAVID!! And Emily, we live everywhere( the clock’s on Scotts time/Australian), but I’m from DIEGO (haha, SAN Diego, CA that is).
And hey MELISSA AGGHH I KNOW NOW /THERES THRRee! That’s unfortunate.
And hi rae!
Gee guys, I just learned a couple more acronyms. Thank goodness for wikipedia( My translator). Hahaha!
to the poll:I wanted her 2 end up w/ Zane,
I liked the Giver up tp the end where they just slide down a hill, i mean what happens next??
They are making a Giver movie 2!!
to the poll:i totally loved Zane n i thought tally would end up with him in the end.
To emily: i live in cali and right now it is wednesday may 9th 8:53 P.M.
to eberybody else: i hated the way the giver ended and did u know that they are gonna make a Giver ,movie???
oh oops!!! i repeated my self..sryy!!
what r ancronyms????!!! and rae w/e ureself…..
hey…
todYA is may tenth in cali but in the clock above it says may 11th. thats not right!!!
…
yea it’s may 10th here too.
eww a giver movie? who would see that. hah.
duuude i really need to buy specials this weekend. i want to know what happens.
Wait no freaking way chima-la!! I’m going to see that.Oh and apparently, Jonas and Garbriel survived because of what happpens in that book Gathering Blue(Hey did anyone get through this book/I was too bored to), and The Messenger. And cool, Cali, me too!
Oh and acronyms are annoying abreviations like w/e and omg and ivfjg ect..
Um hi rae..
And cedes believe it or not, but a lot of people would probably see it, now if they enjoy it is another story.
Sorry if I spoiled the end for someone! I thought we were suppose to talk about all three books here – since this is the Specials Spoiler Zone- right?
For the poll I vote David.
Hi Demensiona-
I understand what you mean about Jacob and Edward. After reading Twilight I loved Edward but after reading New Moon I was kinda liking Jacob. I think Bella is meant to be with Edward – but poor Jacob! ๐
Back to Uglies!
I never had a doubt about David. He was the one to end up with Tally all along. I can see what people liked Zane. I just wasn’t open to liking him because I had already decided in my head that Tally meant to be with David.
Does anyone know what Scott Westerfeld meant in the dedication of Specials when he wrote
“To all the fans who’ve written me about this series. Thanks for telling me what was right, what was wrong, and which bits made you throw the book across the room. (You know who you are.)”
What type of feedback did he receive? What did people not like about Uglies and Pretties?
hi
Hi Melissa, awesome vote! Yeah I agree w/ you, Bella is meant to be w/ Edward, but yeah,poor Jake!!
Hmm, I’m pretty sure that Scott didn’t recieve any negative feedback on Uglies because at that point in time in the series, you LITERALLY had nothing to critize.
(I BELIEVE THAT AT SOME POINT IN TIME, EVERYONE MUST HAVE LIKE DAVID, BECAUSE IN UGLIES, YOU HAD NO REASON NOT TO).
Now Pretties might have recieved some negative critisim because then you had TWO books that you were enabled to compare and critize. Probably w/ the whole TAlly calling David UGLY thing.
Hi rae!
And I have one question for TRUE Zane lovers:
“What is it that you dislike/HATE so much about David?”
(AND BECAUSE HE’S UGLY IS NOT AN ANSWER!).
i hate zane because he took tally away from david and david is better because he saw tally for what she really was ugly or not!
GO DAVID!!!!!
wait, there are like series after the giver??? i want 2 read what happens next!! and i like zane and not david because he gave tally the adventure she wanted, i dont know why i dont like david…but…..uh…..i cant back that up, but with only 1 illegal answer : bacause davids ugly and zane pretty! there i said something totally illegal, but i had 2 get it out. and what scott meant when he said :”and which bits made you throw the book across the room. (You know who you are.)รขโฌย
he said that because there could be parts in the book that u didnt like and those parts made you throw the book across the room. thats my opinion. and OH thats what acromnyms r!! i totally didnt know what they were, but i have been using them like 4evah!! c u guys latah!!
uh, srry that was sooo long, i had 2 get my feelings out.
…?
Yah David said she was beautiful when everybody else said she was ugly. But then… She becomes pretty and can’t really remember David and falls in love with Zane. I did like though affter Tally and Zane kiss she whispers “David”. Me and another girl whos reading the books both wanted to get rid of Zane and have Tally go live happily ever after with David.
GO DAVID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
i’m still 4 zane
Hey Guys
-Go Grayce!
-Yes Chima-la, well there’s certain books that follow the Giver, but I believe there’s alternating narration. And YES I’m going to disregard your Ugly comment.
But wait,(I’m not meaning to take this out on you chima-la), how do you KNOW that David’s UGLY? David can possibly be the hottest guy in the SERIES!(We haven’t seen a picture of David so how can you say that David’s UGLY). Well I know one thing, even if David IS UGLY, I know that his personality was never as UGLY as TALLY- WA’s WAS!And her personality was like that WHEN she was with ZANE!!!
-Okay, now that MY feelings are out.
– But you made an interesting comment chima-la, Zane gave Tally the adventure she WANTED. Now I don’t really know what adventure THAT was, but I never really thought about it. But I must say that I liked the fact that Zane split the cure w/ Tally.
-And hi Robin-wa, I totally agree w/ you. And oh my gosh, I TOTALLY forgot that part! Oh my gosh, what an awesome point!!
– So I’ve discovered something interesting, Zane Lovers know WHAT they like about Zane , but they have no reason as to WHY they hate David. DAVID LOVERS not only know WHY we like David, but we have valid reasons as to WHY we dislike ZANE.
-Oh and hi rae
-But very interesting, thanks ALL!!!
as an answer to my own poll —- i totally love zane!!
tooo Demensiona — its not that i dont like David… i just like zane a little better
im gonnaa go eat dinner cause its 5:52 p.m. here!! MO rox!! any of ya’ll live in missouri??
bye for now
well, i know that davids ugly, because when tally described him, she said” David was hardly pretty. His smile was crooked, and his forehead too high.” well, i guess he can be cute, when scott wrote that he was HARDLY pretty, david could have some pretty to him. well, i still like zane, but david, in person, would be ok to meet. ttfn!
WOW I HAVENT BEEN ON IN A WHILE!!! they r still my favorite books!!! BEST IN THE WORLD!!!!
~
Hey guys..i vote David haha he rocks
Oh and Emily I live in Arkansas which is right below you haha ๐
Hey Demensiona i just wanted to say you rock! You are like the host of this and your really nice and welcomeing! ๐
and people please stop with the drama..(not saying that in a mean way)
i like david more.
i like david and zane maybe im too nice. but i was thinking how funny it was that zane was ok with david vice versa. if that was now there would be some serious tension between them or ass kickin lol
heyy people!!! why do a bunch of people like david more??? ttyl!
uh hello??
talk ppl
hi !
Hey guys! My computer hasn’t allowed me to post in a while!
Fair enough Emily!
Okay, David in person chima-la, fawesome!
I totally agree w/ you cedes!
Awesome points nanette, I totally forgot that whispering David’s name thing!
And hi AllY! Long time no here. And thanks so much,And you’re totally fawesome too!I never looked at it that way! I mean I believe I’ve been on this spoiler zone the longest, but I’m not complaining!
Hi rae!
oh typo (heAr/ not here).
And I have a question, will Tally be considered a RANGER now/ in Extras?
I hope she will be a ranger in Extras or at least in the book. I will be really disappointed if it is just cameo.
yeah i hope she is more that just a cameo too.
And Emily i used to live in Missouri, but i moved to horrible old Florida. What part of missouri do you lve in?
***live****woops
whats a ‘cameo’??? and uh, i guess hi to everybody here!!! soooooo….. see you guys latah!
A cameo is like when a character shows up briefly in a movie, book, tv show, etc. It will get a lot of hype but typically it is just a huge disappointment because the character doesn’t have much to do with the story.
Kind of like how in Smallville – Christopher Reeve (superman in the 80’s) was a character in a couple episodes. He didn’t have many lines but was part of the story.
I would like to see a lot of Tally not just at the end for a couple pages.
I use to live in Missouri too. St. Louis area.
Hi guys!
Yeah, I agree w/ you Melissa and Tally, I hope she is a ranger too ( I haven’t wait months for a cameo)… but I will(hahaha)!
Oh and Melissa, please don’t even bring up SMALLVILLE( Ugh! So done!).
Hahaha, bye guys!
i know! im finished with that show! they would say things, then drop them like *plop* (sounds kinda like Lost??:)) lol c u guys/gals latah!
AH I WANT YOU TO MAKE IT INTO A MOVIE Im going to kill myself Zane was omg everything why did tally do that this is stupid!! well im still gonna get extras. hehe.
Oh ya and um scott westerfeld if you read this.
In Extras or make another book after and make zane come back from the dead. OR i might kill myself i think at least every1 here miss’ Zane in some way.
“I liked Zane. He actually had to overcome guilt about betraying about the Smoke, and wanted to become normal. David was raised to know about the lesions, and if he hadnรขโฌโขt been, he might not have seen anything wrong with the operation. Zane defied everything he had been brought up to belive. I cried when he died. ” unquote ambereyes.
I cried and my stomached ached from being depressed so much i barely ate.
Quote aroagnedragonfly “i did too, amber. itรขโฌโขs amazing how wrapped up we get in the lives of fictional characters.”
unquote.
I know and I thought i was alone on that one
oh and ya stomach not stomached**
Oh and Tally great idea i mean really get the flash tatoo!
Cant stop thinking about Zane and tally in prettys i daydream about it lol

oops! said that 2 times srry!
wowzers i havent been on here in a while. well anyways i FINALLY got specials. i’m only on page 50, it’s pretty good so far i just hate how tally became a special. the author uses like a ton of adjectives in this book i’ve noticed..lol

u can say it, this is a blog about specials…. and ure welcome
*coated
lol hey chim u know my fave part about specials is when tally sets her ping on like every 10 min to keep her away
then it goes
ping.
and shes all trying to be polite and says
hi ping-la
yeah you can say spoiler stuff haha this is a blog for specials. i just am too impatient to find out what happens at the end. im still on page 50 cuz im procrastinating but im about to go read some more of it.
omg that was like my favorite part!!!! i thought it was so hilarious because she was all doped up and was like hi ping-la. i read it over again because it was so funny! ttyl, ttfn, and buh bye! ๐
Hi guys!!!!
Hi ZanesDaughterhaha!
That’s awesome cedes!
Yeah and I totally agree with you on smallville, I am so dissapointed. Come on, a CAR EXPLOSION, oh gee/P A T H E T I C !
AND OH MY GOSH, YES Chima-la, TWILIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Yes I’m DANGEROUSLY ADDICTED!!!!!!!! I can go on and on about the way EDWARD CULLEN LOOKS!!!!! OH MY GOSH, IMMORTALITY HAS NEVER BEEN SO HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Vampires (AND werewolves) ARE SO FREAKING HOT!!!!
Oh Ellie, the closest LIVING celeb who comes close to Edward Cullen is Drew Fuller(charmed)!
Oh yeah, and pinging is fawesome!
I TOTALLY KNOW! I THOUGHT VAMPIRES WERE DARK, BUT OMG!!!! EDWARD WAS THE CUUUUTTTTEEEESSSSSSSTTT VAMPIRE I HAVE SEEN!!!!!!!(READ ABOUT)and i read the first book in like a week, and the second in 2 days! im highly addicted to the book, and it may be a movie!!!!!!!!!
ugh! i was like so in the book, i almost didnt know class was starting cause i was reading the book!
Yeah IT HAS to be a movie!(but the only thing that sucks is that I heard rumored that MTV will be directing it/ and I don’t really trust them to do a good job). And I read Twilight in five days and New Moon in five days.
And I think I need to say it again: EDWARD CULLEN IS FOTALLY HOT!!!!!!
And I know! I get totally lost in the books and lose track of time(and days, hehe)!
yes indeed books are a bad thing. when i read it is very difficult for anyone to get my attention. its like ‘book reading paralysis’ or soemthing. to everyone else around me its annoying. but i soo dont notice it.
this trilogy was good and not as depressing as O’s and X’s which is my favourite trilogy eva
HI Nanette, I totally agree w/ you, but it’s not our fault!Haha!
O’s and X’s? Who’s that by, I’m Intrigued!
hey demensia! i finnaly get the fawesome thing!!!!!!!!!!!yay
i read twilight in 5 days and New moon in 2 days! i am a ‘book horde’ and i can read until 2 in the morning( thats what happened w/ the uglies trilogy) and still not be tired! and i think edward is the cutest thing right next to zane!!( i think they are tied!) ttyl!
an di HOPE*prays* that when mtv does the movie, they dont make it all not loke the book u know what i mean?? i hope they do a good job, cause if they dont, someone will be complaining……NO names of course! ttfn!
*like
it is may 31, 2007, and it is 6:51, not 12:51 kk buh bye!
lol ya im reading so yesterdays lol its fawesome also xD and um hey demensiona and chim-la again haha
hey ellie
Hi rae! Oh my gosh that’s freat!
Yeah I could read like forever, if I had the time!And chima-la, sorry to say, but Edward Cullen exceeds ALL mortal beings!
Oh and you can just write my name on the TOP of that complaint list in bold print/ first name AND last name!
And I think it would be awesome if some foreign director or the winner of the show, “On the lot” directs the movie or something.
And hi Ellie!!!Yeah, So Yesterday was a fun read!
omgsh. im suchh a procrastinator. lol im STILL on page 50 on the specials because i haven’t read it for a week. i hate reading during the summer.
you are a procrastinator, cause i read that boook in 4 days! srry to make you feel bad :'(
And you sort of are right, edward exeeeds them all, and if there was a ‘USA Book Awards 2007’ for young readers, OMG Twilight sereis, and Uglies trilogy will DEFINATELY win some sort of award.
Like edward would win ‘ hottest male vampire in the centry!’
tally would win ‘ bravest girl to go through so much and lose her beloved zane :'(‘
David would win ‘ coolest ugly, *not in a bad way* to evah hit books!
Did i miss Bella from twilight? She would win a bravery award for not killing herself while edward was gone, and another for meeting a hot vampire and a super cute werewolf!
Sorry i talked to much, but i totally had to get out my feelings, and i think the culpret for making me talk so much is that darn mountain dew! ttyl! ๐
when does extra’s come out??? blah blah blah, do do do, da da da…boring boring boring….talk to much….oops! did it again, told u it was the mountain dew! ttfn!
yeah, i got it a week before school got out, and i haven’t read it since. because i do something with my friends everyday in the summer. lol
omg u gotta read it! u will love it sooo much. mountain dew has left the system, repeat mountain dew has left the system! lol ttyl!
Hey cedes, I’m a definite procrastinaor sometimes too. I think Uglies took me like a month(you know w/ school and all). Um Pretties took me like two(Is it just me or did Pretties seem really short?), and Specials took me like four too.
Oh those 2 series have recieved a lot of awards and recognition. Yeah Edward would DEFINETELY win the hottest male vampire of the centuries and beyond!That award was like made for him. And Jacob would win the hottest “you know who” award!
And you know what, I think that bravery award should DEFINETELY go to Bella Swan, I mean New Moon was just DRAMATIC, RAW PAIN! I think Tally’s award should revolve around STRENGTH(mental, physical, emotional).
Oh and chima-la, I believe Extras comes out on October 2.
Wow I wish I could be enjoying summer right now, but I’m STILL IN SCHOOL!!!! I’m writing 10 page research paper on the Salem Witch Trials(Even though I like this subject)!Gosh this blows!
hey demensiona, um O’s and X’s (noughts and crosses) is by malorie blackman it is probably in the US but i wudnt no as im from london. its sort of like romeo and juliet but rather than it being a feud between families, its a feud between the ruling class (crosses) and underclass (noughts)i cud go on but i dont want to reveal anything ๐ u cud check it out on amazon?
thx demensiona, and how long r u in school?? im in till june 14, but you have to write a 10 page research report on the salem witch trial?? what more do they wanna know about it?? innocent people were trialed, prosecuted and hung because they were believed to be witches, and were doing ‘witch craft’ that is NOT something to be doing 10 pages on…..
New moon had me crying when edward left her! omg i was like didnt you wanna be with her forever?? then he came back, but she was so dead and then jacob came, and you know ehat happened to him…. then, omg i am doing it again, repeating the whole book cause i practically memorized it! srry, but know the story.
But what really caught ,my eye was that the volturi didnt live in a dark and gloomy castle! and they werent all that mean! ok tmi, gotta go bye!
SHOOT that was long again, but u know me, when i get a subject to talk about, i can go on forevah on that subject, BUT the culpret this time was coca cola! ttttttooooooooo much caffeen for my body, ttfn!
i loved specials lots, but i was really really really mad!(when sertain people died)
haha
umm
scott, i think you should finish this series and start a brand new one, like, i don’t know.
maybe it could be in the future and the charicters don’t know eachother ohh i don’t know. you can think of SOMETHING though! haha. start brain storming now! (and for the other books in the series)
~Maddie-la
OMG how the hell could you kill Zane!! i know this is late but i only just read it. lol.
But why??? it was so sad. i loved everything up untill that.
i know! i dont know what was in his mind to kill zane! he was like the coolest future guy i have read about!
I cried when Zane died…and Tally didn’t even care. what a heartless b****!!!
p.s. i’ve always rooted for david though…why don’t they hook up already?
lol back leave me a summary of all this ive been having lots of reports U GUYS MUST READ SO YESTERDAY
ima read peeps now
xD
what is So Yesterday about?? And, Katherine, the reason they didnt hook up already is because nobody knows if they did because the book ends with them leaving. i mean what kind of ending is that?? what happens next? where do they go?? ttyl!
OMG Specials is so confusing at some time
im really happy that Shay didnt cure Tally when she waz scheduled 4 despecialization because in Uglies Tally turned Shay pretty and in Pretties- Specials Shay got her revenge by turning Tally special but on the cover of Specials it said it was the final book but then Scott decided 2 make Extras!! Come on !!!!!!! Extras isnt even about Tally!! i mean come on At first when i thought there would be no more books i waz really sad and confused because Scott left so many questions 2 b answered
i know!! i have way too many questions and most wont be answered because tally wont be the protagonist in the next book, uh whats her name is. Its not FAIR!!! *tear* :'(
I totally no what u mean chima-la 2 many questions like u and i said before like u said most of them wont be answered i mean still 4 all 3 books its been about tally and now 3 years after the war ended and tally waz in the wild with david this girl named Aya comes up and i dont no after that but still only a couple of characters from the original books will make guest appearances that is so retarded
Hey guys!!!!!!
Thanks Nanette for the title, I’ll definetly check on amazon! Oh and you’re from London? That’s awesome!
Oh and you’re welcome chima-la!!Oh that’s wierd, I get out on June 14 too. But YEAH, what more DO they want to know about it! Oh and I was mistaken, that’s “14” pages in some kind of freaking college format!!!
And REPEAT! REPEAT! Yeah, New Moon broke me IN HALF! I mean come on, when I saw the blank pages w/ the months, I almost had an heart attack. But no, I didn’t think for ONE second that Edward didn’t want to be w/ her because is was in A B S O L U T E denial(oh and I would have ran my a** off after him when he was leaving/if he wanted to leave, he would’ve had to strangle me to pull me off of his leg)!
And yeah, the Volturi are FAWESOME (and very JULIUS CAESAR related).
And hi Rose-la!
Hi Ellie, yeah Tally- “WA” was a heartless b****.
And hi Sarah, yeah I still have a lot of unanswered questions too( like way back w/ the parents and stuff). But I kind of like the whole narration switch though/ but I think it’d be kind of cool if Scott made a book w/ a rustie narrator, to see what EXACTLY happened.
Demensiona i totally no wat u mean i mean seriously my god we dont no wat happpened 2 sol and ellie but still i mean all 3 books were about tally and her overcoming stuff seriously i think when it said people from the past 3 books i think itll be tally david shay and dr cable the narration switch will be sorta nice but still
some people might have mentioned it already………but there is a pair of books that i strongly reccomend…………Twilight and New Moon…………they are the best!!!! They should keep you guys tied over until Extras comes out……….you should check the site out…… http://www.stepheniemeyer.com
thanks Tay-wa
u no whats really retarded is that they say that uglies is coming out with a movie but dont give ANY info on whos in it and stuff
i know! and does anbody know of any books that can tie me over till Eclipse because i will read elipse in time for extras, but what do i read in between today and August 7th????
I was like crying sooooo much when he just left her, but the thing that REALLY got me to cry even moer was that she ran after him and he was long! i keep thinking about the next book, thinking about what will happen next…wondering if she becomes a vampire…shoot i did it again! i need to stop talking!… so help me find a book that is SO good that it will keep me readding!! ttfn!
Hi sarah, wow Tally parents were mentioned so early on and briefly in the book that I forgot their names! Thank’s for the reminder! But yeah, that narrator switch would be nice.
And Hi Tay -Wa, oh Twilight will tie you down for ETERNITY. I’m a TOTAL fanatic, a DANGEROUS fanatic. I mean I’ve made a movie cast , and a Twilight and New Moon soundtrack, AND an Eclipse soundtrack, and it hasn’t even come out yet!!! And I’ve found so many patterns and clues that it’s RIDICULOUS!(I think this might be the wrong place to tell you guys what they are). But yeah, I’m crazed right?
And yeah, Sarah, I think that’s totally fetarded(Last Days), but like I’ve said, I believe that the cast is going to be made of new faces, because I haven’t heard any word on the websites of actors/actresses who are likely canidates.
Oh you guys need some books to read? Um lets see:
(For Twilight Readers):
(1).Tantalize by Cynthia Smith
(2). Blue Bloods by Melissa De La Cruz
(MORE science-fiction):
(3).Shades Children by Garth Nix

-That’s about it!!
i TOTALLY no what u mean demensiona when u go 2 the site it doesnt give any info on the movie but i found some stuff on the uglies movie on youtube
ok i am so freakin mad right now i just checked the thing on utube and that is so not it the movies comes out in 2008 (supposedly) and they havent even come up with a cast and crew grrrrrrr
i know!!! there are like soooo many good movies that are coming out in 2008, like Twilight *fantisizes*, Uglies *Yay’s* and the Giver movie *i hope they add some sort of ending!* and thanks for the books demensiona! i really like like the vampire realistic type of books, and future books * figures, thats why im on here duh!* and you made a soundtrack to the books??? i wanna hear it!! ok, i gotta go check out the twilight websight for any new info, be back here in a hour or so. ttyl!
OH OOPS! whats ‘Blue Bloods’ about???
i no chima-la but how could u make uglies when u dont even ahve a cast and crew yet and uglies is way long oh and i LOVE the Twilight and i hope that they do put an ending on the giver
i ment have not ahve
like, if they are gonna make a movie, then you should already have a cast made out by now, if the movie will come out in 2008!But whats ‘Blue Bloods’???????
i gotz ta go to marine world today..i gotz ta go to marine world today….
I NO!!!!!!! they should already have a cast and crew i asked my mom cauz she used 2 b an actress and they shouldve already been filming by now ……. in have NO idea what the heck blue bloods is
u got 2 go 2 marine world today lucky ive been stuck here
i reread specials twice today and i just figured out that if tally hadnt of crossed the river 2 c paris in uglies she wouldve never met shay ever…. i think….. so basically its all tallys fault of what happened if she hadnt of crossed the river she wouldnt have met shay so basically its all tallys fault
Sorry Chima- la! Blue Bloods is this vampire “series.” I haven’t finished the first book yet but I’ve heard fawesome reviews. Um here’s what it says on the back of the book
” Schuyler( correct way to spell SKYLAR, haha) Van Alen has never fit in at Duchesne( Do- shane) her prestigious New York City private school. She prefers baggy, vinatage clothes to the Prada and Pearls worn by her classmates. But when she turns fifteen, Schuyler’s life changes dramatically. The death of a popular schoolmates haunts her in unexpected ways. And strangest of all, Jack Force, the most popular boy in school, is showing a sudden interest in her.
Once an outcast, Schuyler is thrust into Manhattan’s most exclusive social circle. Its memebers are powerful, the wealthy, and- as Schuyler soon discovers- the unhuman. They are Blue Bloods, an ancient group of vampires, and for centuries they’ve been invincible. Now something is preying on this elite group, and Schuyler wants to find out the truth. But is she the most vulnerable of them all?”
-Sounds hot to me! And it seems to me that like “Jasper” is the Edward in the story, and he has a twin that’s like Rosalie. And the unique Bella like main character, has an (what appears to be) attractive male friend.
(I ‘ll finish my post a LITTLE later chima-la, and Sarah)!
Does anyone know what happens in Extras????
well 3 years after the war its all about money and stuff like that i think so Aya (we have a new narrator) does something and scott said that “certain people” from uglies-specials make appearances thats all i know chima-la demensiona u guys no anything about it???? but i think that tally shay the cutters david dr.cable and maddy will make an appearance
Okay, hi guys!
-You’re welcome chima-la, I’m happy to help! Oh and I COULD type up the soundtracks but they’re really long/ I don’t know if this is the right place to post them, but I’d be more than happy to if you want!And their IS a lot of remakes,I’m excited!
And Sarah I know, why haven’t they released casting yet? I mean if it comes out in 2008, they HAVE to have casting already like you said. Anyways at this rate, the movie will be on the big screen in LATE December, or next year(which I won’t tolerate)!
And to add on to your summary of Extras Sarah, all I know is that in Aya’s city, they DO have the pretty operation. But Aya’s not old enough(15), and instead of an interface ring, she has an eyescreen (city’s interface/). Ugh I hope there doesn’t come a time when Aya has to use a knife to carve out the eyescreen, I can’t wait hahaha! But this is all I know, or all that I’ve inferred.
And those German Covers are FAWESOME! I especially like the PRETTY one. Oh and Scott, to somewhat answer you’re question, I believe that the word Plural tenses of the word do not exsist in the language. Like UGLIES and PRETTIES do not exsist in ours (well according to the English Spell Check!)!
oooohhhh thats what it is about!! ok ill have to look into it….and if the movie IS supposedly coming out in 2008, then why havent they started some cast or annoucned it?? oooo that makes me SO mad!! i want to be Jacob and when i get mad at those movie directors, i want to make them so totally afraid of me that they will make a movie!! sorry that was long but im so bored……
and i hope aya doesnt cut out the eye thingy, or maybe all she has to do is close her eyes and nobody can see where she is going or doing!!!! yay a hypothosis!!!
hey guys but seriously if is supposed 2 come out in 2008 they should have a cast and crew and they shouldve started casting it
but i REALLY REALLY hope that Aya wont have 2 cut out her eye *gives me shudders*
ho do u guys think is goin 2 make a guest appearance in Extras
i think its tally shay-cutters david dr cable and maddy thats my hypothesis
whats urs
I think that david will appear in extras and tally.
Is it a film of uglies that is coming out in 2008 or something else??
Thanks for the info Sarah ๐
well heres what i think(this is gonna be somewhat long, but its what i think) i think that aya will go into the forest somehow and she’ll go sooooooooooo deep in the forest she’ll find a little camp and then tally and david appear, then tally will tell aya what happened to her and what happened 3 years ago and everything happened because of her. and david will tell about how he lives in the forest and has NO city life whatsoever.
im soo happy that i got to tell my theory, and Rose-la, yes there is a movie coming out bu it needs to start casting now or else it will be a couple more years till we see it.
no prob Rose-la happy to help and chima-la love the hypothesis but i think that shay and the cutters and maddy will have joined tally and david i dont no though only scott and his publishers no =) and it will be a couple of years if they dont start castin NOW but i dont like it that 20th century fox is doin the movies to have the special effects that uglies requires then u totally need some1 else
๐
whoops sorry
I saw something that said Tally would have a guest apearince but I don’t know about any of the other characters.
Well, Robin-wa Scott said that some of the characters from the first books will make a guest appearance it could b any 1 it could even be sol and ellie
It wuld be a bit boring if it was sol and ellie cos they dont do much in any of the books. they are only mentioned once.
Are you guys all in america?
yeah im in america, and your right, it would be boring if sol and ellie made an appearance. who is maddie??? u guys keep talking about some
‘madie’ person…… why do u think Fox will do a bad job doing the movie? they did good special effects with Star Wars *even though i dont like star wars* and ya
hey i love these books and i cant wait for extras
sorry guys so yesterday was about this guy named hunter and like his life in new york all about trends and shoes and stuff but its so yesterday ๐
oh ya to tell the truth i always LOVED david better than zane which is totally random u have to read uglies and prettys together quick to understand
oh chimla you havent read uglies? u gotta read it maddie is davids mom
oh and its funny how my real name is the same as tallys mom
oops never read peeps i decided to read so yesterday first lmao
ima go start tonight
Im in america totally im in the sunshine state!!! chima-la tsk tsk tsk u no that maddy is davids mom (i hope) well i think that fox will do a bad job because theyre not that far advanced but they did a great job on star wars but i think that uglies will require a whole lot more and just a broomstick to fight with but they do a great job on stunts ๐
and it would be a bit well a whole lot boring if sol and ellie were in it weve gotten 2 no the other character so well it would be like startin over….. again but still i think it will be maddy tally david shay-cutters and dr cable what do u think?????
Hey guys!
Yeah chima-la, Blue Bloods has an awesome plot, doesn’t it? And yeah on the whole casting thing, ugh! I’m so nervous right now! I mean it’s enough to worry about WHO will be casted, let alone if there even IS casting.And to tell you the truth, I can’t really recall any movies done by fox. But I’m guessing that they’ll have a darker, more realistic look for the movie. And awesome hypothesis!
I think Aya’s town will be alerted of some kind of environmental problem/sewage/toxins/food/water?
We don’t really know how the city is set up though. I mean aya could be the daughter of somone who runs the city, she could have siblings. Aya could just be fleeing the surgery/famine?/working conditions(she may work in a factory or something making eyescreens) w/ a sibling/friend/Guardian?/by herself, she/they go deep into the forest or something as you said, and come across Tally and David(they’re taking care of the environmental issue/helicopter, are they rangers now)?But I don’t know from there on.
Hi Rose-la! Again, yay on David! And yeah, I currently live in San Diego, California.
Hi KatieHarris!
Hi Robin-wa!
Hi ellie! Yeah I’ve been meaning to mention that about your name, awesome!
Hi Sara!You know the truth is, I couldn’t imagine sol and ellie existing in another city.
Bye guys!I’ll try to look up info on casting if enabled!
And sorry SaraH, I think I’ve been spelling your name wrong. And sorry “katieharris” on capitalization. I don’t think have any more errors aside from maybe grammer errors. If so, sorry!
Ugh, sorry! “I”have… Gee!
Ellie, i dont get how you can like david more than Zane, i mean zane is so much cooler david is so serious about everything.
I think fox could do a good job but somewhere else could probably do it better.
You guys are lucky, i live in the UK and it is seriously boring, especially where i am. It rains all the time, even now when its meant to be summer ๐
i no wat u mean demensiona i agree i couldnt think of sol and ellie ot living somewhere else but tally’s natural city ………..but like i think aya will do somethin but i dont think shes old enough 2 work in a factory she only 15 but then again its whole new book
Rose-la i JUST got back from the UK i like both david and zane but i like zane a little bit better but not much and when we were in London it was really rainy which wasnt really fun but i loved the UK
they only say zanes hot and serious remember how they said that he had other new prettys tell him about there time and she wondered what he did to them when he kissed her?
davids serious and wonderful to be with he kissed tally to with a good meaning to to help spill some uglies stuff. and he was so nice to her he just has been hurt because Az died. He always acted like a middle pretty and b4 even tho he is ugly i mean tally would see for even a second a special glow in his eyes.
oh, i todally forgot davids moms name!!! ive benn stick on twilight for so long, ive forgotten everything else! im sooo bad tsk tsk on me! and i think fox will change it around a little, but will do sort a good job. and u live in the UK? i love the rain, and im thinking when i grow up, ill move to alaske cause its cold and i wont get hot all the time!
well i dont no if i like david or zane more its so hard………… and it ok chima-la every 1 forgets things sometimes but that was 1 u shouldnt have forgotten …. oh well ๐ and i agree fox wont have the true story and yeah just got back from the UK
Hey guys!
Hi Rose-la! On the whole David thing,well sometimes SERIOUSNESS can save your life. And boring? Oh I’m trapped in the wraths of boring h*** right now in San, Diego, CA(maybe that’s just me).
Hi sarah!Yeah, very true on it being a WHOLE new book. There’s so many open ended possibilities. Oh and welcome back from the UK!
Hi chima-la, yeah I’m a total Twilight A D D I C T ! I mean this is getting totally out of hand, and I know Eclipse is just going to make it worse! But sinfully, I want Eclipse to make it worse! Ugh, I think about the series 24/7! I can’t even concentrate on any other book….
But yeah the rain? Yeah I was thinking I might take a little trip down to Forks,Washington sometimes.. (haha, I’m just kidding!)! And ALASKA? V E R Y interesting..(haha)!
Bye guys! Extras should be a nice(NEEDED) distraction for me!
hey demensiona it would be a WHOLE new book and like u said there could be endless possiblities and yeah just got back from UK and demensiona what is twilight ive heard of it but never read it….. u live in San Diego i call that lucky im in the sunshine state YAY except its been rainy ๐
oh and wats twilight about i should read it.
so should i but i have no idea what its about
ok, uh i dont know how to summon up twilight without telling you the whole story, sorry ellie…
And demensiona, i am an addict to! i have the websight on my favorites list and whenever i get a chance i check it to see if there is anything new im really bad!! and because elipse will come out before extras, ill have what 3 days until i finish eclipse, then a whole another month or two till exras!
And dont you think its ironic that my 2 next favorite bokoks coming out both start with an ‘e’? Eclipse and Extras??
And your sooooo right demensiona! eclipse will make it alot worse, cause then i will read it really fast, THEN i will have to wait another year for the next book to come out! ugh!! and i think about it twenty 4 seven 2! hey thats a good idea! take a trip to forks!!!! ill see ya there! lol ttyl!
my friend have read it and they said it was REALLY good so i thought i should read it ๐
Ha me and my friends have decided to go to a halloween party dressed as specials. You guys have any ideas for how to make myself look like one? (i know its very far in advance)
well, u should find a silk suit9if not find a regular suit) and hold on ill get my book on how they look
get some kind of silk like chima-la said and dye ur hair black and i dont know what 2 do about flash tattos
and cutting scars and teeth
for the cutting scars, put some sort of white substance on your wrist and rub it in so it looks like a real scar, or just cut it yourself. and the teeth can just be some vampire teeth and cut the front teeth shorter. and more things you need help with?
the cutting it your self part was a joke(unless you are REALLY emo)
i cant get Twilight out of my head! and for a while i couldnt gte uglies out of my head, but twilight is like a drug that certain people get addicted to and im one of those certain people, and i guess uglies trilogy was a drug.
*get
yeah lol i wont actually cut myself cos im not crazy.
chima-la cut ur self how CRAZY!!!! im sure Rose-la wouldnt do that and i like the idea of vampire teeth but NO BLOOD ROSE-LA and im sure Rose-la wouldnt cut herself (i hope) like u said OMG I JUST finished twilight chima-la i cant get it out of my head!!!! GREAT BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Guys!!!!!!
WHAT IS TWILIGHT ABOUT !?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Guys who haven’t read it have been DEPRIVED!!!!!! I don’t think you can sum up the plot of Twilight in a couple of words. Oh my gosh the characters are just so real! Everything’s just so unexpected! YOU HAVE TO READ IT!!!!!!!!! Dude and the characters are SO FREAKING HOT! You’ll never look at the name E D W A R D (or J A C O B !) the same way again!
Hi chima-la!!! I’m a TOTAL Twilight druggie! Man I need to go on that show INTERVENTION, I should sign up!( I’m just kidding/I really hope!)! Hey I’ll see you there in Forks, Chima-la, haha! But you know what? I honestly think I’ll be better after reading Eclipse (kill some anticpation). Yeah “E” is for EXCELLENT EDWARD, EXTRAORDINARY EDWARD, EXQUISITE EDWARD, EXCITING EDWARD, EXTREME EDWARD, EXTRA FAWESOME EDWARD, EDWARD! EDWARD! EDWARD! EDWARD!………EDWARD!
(Finishing my comment):
Oh and Sarah, in my opinion, San Diego is LUCKY if you’re VISITING. I don’t know, it just depends which PART of San Diego. I mean Downtown’s fawesome! As well as the zoo and the museums. And the people are hilarious. You just can’t live here all of your life (In my opinion). And wasn’t/ ISN’T TWILIGHT a fawesome book! Oh but as a vital warning, get EMOTIONALLY prepared for New Moon!And read New Moon TWICE, just TRUST me!
Hi Ellie, READ TWILIGHT!!!!
Rose-la, all that I can say on the costume, is to DEFINTELY have awesome sketching/Tattoos on your face/ and have your hair slicked back!And remember, attitude’s EVERYTHING!
Bye guys!
demensiona like i said just finished twilight and it was FAWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i couldnt believe wat i waz missing and i want 2 go downtown in SD i hope the people r nice like u ๐ ok and ill get emotionally prepared 4 New Moon i hope its good
ok i just got my birthday present and my b-day is on August 31
im not sayin thats bad or anything ๐ but u no
omg your right! thats what E stands for in eclipse! AND I WAS JUST KIDDING PEOPLE about the cutting, it was just a side comment.
And yeah if you wanna read new moon, do these things:
#1-emotionally prepared people, and if you consider yourself a person that doesnt cry, that will change soon.
#2- when you read it, read it twice, three times or four! because if you only read it once, you will NOT get Eclipse, and you know what they say the more the merrier!
#3- please dont skip anything! because i thought about it, but when i started reading more…wow! i was amazed at how much i could have missed!
Ok ttfn people and if you need anything else, just ask! lol!
oh yeah,(more from my other comment above) ill be less crazy about new moon when i read eclipse, but then i will go koo koo for coco puffs when i find out how far away the date is for the fourth book!
wait, we arent supposed to be talking about other books we are supposed to be talking about Uglies duh! sooooooo zane is the hottest guy alive(slash ‘/’ Edward) oops did it again! ok i honestly dont know how to talk about uglies when im caught up in my twilight addiction!
ok so what is twilight about?
ok i will after i finish peeps and last days peeps im almost done i started yesterday
ill tell u a little
its SO awesome
like its about these superhuman creatures and that may not sound cool but its better than it sounds. ๐
so i finished uglies except for extras i wanna read twilight now so bad D:
cal from peeps they say hes attractive or w.e but they dont exactly describe him much. D:
yeah i dont cry much and i loved twilight i cant stop thinking about it it was like when i first read uglies but i dont cry much and i wonder if that will change
Hello!
Sorry I forgot to say this but I have to admit this: ZANE is FREAKING HOT on the Italian cover of PRETTIES!!!!!!!(ironic for a David lover to say, yes, but it’s the truth!)!
Hi sarah! Yeah you should totally take a trip to downtown San Diego (It’s a little intimidating I’d say/buildings and population).And thanks!No,the people for the most part are fawesome in the humor sense. And believe me, New Moon’s to DIE for. And honestly I didn’t like full out CRY, but I was FREAKING depressed! And happy birthday on that day, I’ll say it again on August 31(Mine’s on October 9)!
Hi chima-la! Great advice! Administered like a pro! Yeah I agree, I’ll be okay w/ New Moon after Eclipse! And we SHOULD talk about Uglies, but the current movie situation gives me a migrane. Here’s some Uglies music that I’ve posted before:
(UGLIES):

(PRETTIES):

(SPECIALS):

(Extras)(just what I imagine/or for pretties):
http://www.sideload.com/cb/track/?id=220282
And of course: The Killers, รขโฌลWhen you were youngรขโฌย(specials).
Yes Ellie! Read Twilight, and isn’t cal on the cover of Peeps? He looks pretty attractive to me!
And hi Rose-la! I’ll seriously need to get back to you on the summary (I’m really out of words to explain)!
Bye!
i just finished specials, like, 2 minuites ago. i can’t believe the on- off relationship tally had with zane and david. how did zane just lay in the hospital bed dead, anyway? wouldnt they realize that a patient was dead, u kno, and do somethin bout it???!!!
wait, so is extras like, the 4th book? i thot it was a trilogy? is it like, a ch. book, or like, some other book with artist’s drawings and ides. it shood be that way, tho. c’mon, u have got to agree with me here, sometimes in uglies, pretties, and specials, it can be difficult to formulate the pictures in our heads?
Also, just out of curiosity, is that tally and zane on the cover of pretties? or is it peris? the book says he has jet-black hair, but…
hey demensiona and yeah im comin 4 my 16th b-day so im excited and yeah i really want 2 read New Moon im goin 2 get it and lauren extras isnt a part of the uglies trilogy its still based on uglies though cauz in the trilogy its tallys stuff now its Ayas and its shay and zane on the cover of pretties weird huh??? on the italian cover i think its tally and zane cauz i dont think tally would like that shay would b like that ๐
Hi lauren, i think the guy on the cover is Zane though.
Demensiona i totally agree with you the italian pretties cover Zane is hot.
So what exactly is the movie situation?
Rose-la totally right that is zane according 2 scott and he is SO hot on the Italian cover and im even a david lover but they already got producers and right 4 all 3 movies but they either r bein stubborn and not releasin the cast and crew or dont have a cast and crew at all ๐
u mean lastdays demensiona? well cant talk im really sick.
oh ellie ur sick ๐ not very happy-making so sad-making
ok i was just skimming through all well not all but i just noticed somethin…. scott replies 2 the other blogs but not this 1 ๐ weird huh???? cauz hes bin on the Last Days and Midnighters 2 but not Specials *wink wink* *nudge nudge* scott ๐
Hi !!!!!
Hi Lauren! Yeah I’m not really sure about the doctor’s sanity in Specials, I have to read it over again!
Hi Sarah!Fool! If you lived in Tally’s city, you would be fleeing to DIEGO in order to escape the surgery! Fotally Fawesome! And haha! You’re totally right on Tally, fawesome point!And yeah, tick tock on casting!
Hi rose-la! YES! Zane on the Italian cover is totally PERFETTI!Hahaha! And there’s still no news on casting, ANYWHERE! That’s why I still have a migrane!
Oh I’m so sorry Ellie! Get better totally soon! Isn’t Moz on the cover of Last Days?Is he not?!
And YEAH Sarah, I don’t remember the last time that scott’s been on this spoiler zone. I find that VERY interesting!
Bye guys!
Twilight summary:
Seventeen-year-old Bella leaves Phoenix to live with her father in Forks, Washington, where she meets an exquisitely handsome boy at school for whom she feels an overwhelming attraction and who she comes to realize is not entirely human.
This series is the best!! I recommend it to everyone!!! A good website to obsess with other fans twilightlexicon.com.
yep im actuall ymovin 2 DIEGO!!!!!!!!!
i meant actually movin
wow. lol i live in los angeles ok well im a bit better i finished peeps yesterday it was awesome. ima read last days then start twilight. you know whats wierd i finish all his books in 3 days. strange ๐
oh gosh i wanna read twilight so bad thanks melissa for the summary makes it sound even better!! ๐
oh and thanks demensiona im not sure whos on the cover of last days maybe the band leader im not sure. and the cover of peeps is like a peep eye haahaha. oh and can u leave the link for uh the pic of zane lol. that would be fawesome. so ya.
oh ya ummm on the regular over of pretties seems like its tally and david right? not sure D: lol.
hey ellie so glad ur feelin better and u live in L.A. FAWESOME!!! im movin 2 cali soon though but yeah on the cover of pretties i imagined it tally-wa and zane-la not zane-la and shay-la but it did seem like tally and david but it wasnt david cauz hes an ugly ;D
๐
what the hell!!!
ya but the cover of the regular pretties described david high forhead and big nose and he is kinda ugly and he doesnt have black hair like zane so. i think they just changed it for the italian cover
yeah …. maybe ๐
ok, just to set it strait, the cover of pretties is shay & zane, ironic huh? and wheres the pic of zane on the italian cover?? ttfn!
really? but the cover of pretties “zane” doesnt have black hair. and hmm is that really shay? zane looks totally bogus on the cover. to me….ugly.
i think its david and tally still cuz tally has silver eyes well even tho zane has gold but ew i cant believe they used him. so not attractive
why would shay be with zane i mean. idunno nvm
i dunno we should ask scott……….hey scott how come zane and shay r on the cover of pretties and not tally????
Hi guys!
Wow sarah! That’s going to be a totally interesting adjustment!Wow that’s so fool!
Hi Ellie! LA? Fawesome!And you’re welcome!(I’m glad to hear that you’re feeling better!)! Oh my gosh, I forgot that there’s different Peep covers! I have the one w/ Cal, and 2 other girls on the cover(probably Lace and Sarah).
Hi Melissa, awesome summary!(Was that the summary in the book)? Oh and I’ve been meaning to go onto that website!
Hi chima-la!The cover is on Scott’s blog page(I don’t know how to explain it)!
Bye!
very interestin ๐ i cant wait though i hope we do move and it probably is Sarah and Lace…. but it could also b morgan but most likely lace and Sarah ๐
Sorry sarah, I didn’t see your latest comment! Um I think that Shay and Zane are on the cover to illustrate the “battle”(lack of a better word) between pretties(zane has green eyes) and Uglies(Shay has blue eyes). Tally’s eyes are blue-green!(pretty/uglies)!
Yeah morgan, I forgot her name.
And I hope you do move Sarah(Unless you REALLY like it in Flordida)! Good Luck! I’ll probably be roaming around San Diego in August( Stephenie Meyer’s Eclipse)!
thats ok demensiona i agree with the “battle” and yeah maybe morgan i love it in FLA but i LOVE cali so maybe early next year ๐
hey demensiona they said that tallys were silver and zane gold so idunno. and send me some links of pics of some ppl :] like the diff peeps cover and pic of zane in italian
well i dont think that unless you had the optical contacts you dont have silver and gold eyes i dont even think they have gold and silver dunno tho
i know so i dont think its zane nor tally
I think it is Zane and Tally because who else would it be? If it was Shay that would just be wierd!
Hi guys!
Hi Rose-la! Scott confirmed that it is in fact Shay and Zane/ but I totally thought it was Tally. And for some strange reason(I guess) I thought it was Shay on the cover of Specials.
Hi sarah!Wow you would be switching schools kind of late if you did in fact move to San Diego/ that’s a major adjustment anywhere. But if Bella Swan switched schools for her junior and senior year/as I am, then I’m sure you can too!(That is if you DO move).Thanks on the “battle”.
Hi ellie! Not sure on the contacts situation!
Um here’s link a for MY Peeps cover:

Bye guys!
รยฟรยพรยบรยฐ!
Hey guys, I’m going to re-post MY “Uglies Covers Analysis”(Get ready,it’s long and maybe confusing.And note that I may be wrong):
(Uglies Cover)-Okay if you remember back to the chapter in uglies called รขโฌลFACING the Truth รขโฌย (when Tally was face morphing with Shay), Tally says that she hates the RIGHT side
0f her face and she usually favors the LEFT. The coverรขโฌโขs trying to trick you. The front cover shows TALLYรขโฌโขS LEFT, her simpler Uglies face, and in her eye, I believe it is a closer/
Fuller image of David and the Smoke. On the back cover, It is TALLYรขโฌโขS Right, which appears to be her more defined pretty face and in her eye looks like a further image of Dr. Cable in a Special Circumstances room. Sheรขโฌโขs contradicting herself! And Tally usually hides behind leaves and other vegetation in order to make decisions and choices.
(Pretties Cover)- Tallyรขโฌโขs faced full on w/ decisions and complications.(Shay=Uglies, independence/Zane=Pretties, dependency). Lets start w/ Shay first, youรขโฌโขre seeing SHAYรขโฌโขS RIGHT (bigger),and the sparkle in her eye is hinting truth. (Now to explain Zaneรขโฌโขs death): You see ZANEรขโฌโขS LEFT and if you look on the back cover, thereรขโฌโขs less than half of
ZANEรขโฌโขS RIGHT side. Now though Tally loved Zane/the LEFT side,you canรขโฌโขt SURVIVE ON HALF A FACE. Saying that you canรขโฌโขt survive as a pretty.
(Specials Cover)-This is where Tally gives her answer/decision/solution.Weรขโฌโขre seeing TALLYรขโฌโขS RIGHT, the side she TRULY hates. Everthing(facial features) are really magnified now. The interior/less visible sketches and Tallyรขโฌโขs tattoo on her face illustrates the battle between Pretties and Specials. The interior sketches told Tally what she had become, and were the road maps for Tally finding herself.
tally is a side (uglies), Tally-Wa is a side(Pretties/Specials), TALLY, is a full image w/ her OWN diverse thoughts.Daivd saw Tally as a whole and David ultimately IS a whole. You yourself, are a full image(smokie). You see I donรขโฌโขt completely believe that uglies are merely just like us/ they are the human condition. In the chapter รขโฌลThe SIDE You Despise ,รขโฌย thereรขโฌโขs truth in that
SIDE . The RIGHT course was Uglie, in yet there was so much beauty( the flowers).
Covers as a whole:(1,Uglies)(2,Pretties)(3,SPecials):
(1).Choices/thoughts
(2).Flat-on Decisions
(3). Action/answer/conclusion
(Hair length signifies her journey):
(1).Long
(2).Shoulder length
(3).Short
(Eyes):
(1). Vision(images w/ bright irises)
(2). Clouded/weakening(just an iris)
(3). Blind(dark pupil/iris)
If you look on the side of the book:
(1).Lips and Nose(VOICING immediate thoughts/feelings, sensing).
(2). Eye(SEEING, you do see lips and a nose, but speaking was only an option).
(3). Ear(LISTENING, speaking was NEVER an option).
Listening= Wisdom
-Oh and again on the eyes: On the front cover of Uglies, Tallyรขโฌโขs(yet her eyes are blue-green)LEFT iris is more BLUE.And on the back cover, her RIGHT iris is more GREEN. On Pretties, Shayรขโฌโขs iris is BLUE (uglies),and BOTH of Zaneรขโฌโขs irises are GREEN (Pretties). And on the cover of Specials, you can not see Tallyรขโฌโขs irises, because sheรขโฌโขs neither Blue or Green or Blue-Green, sheรขโฌโขs TALLY!
-Wow, what a lot to think about!
seriously ๐
OMG!!! that was so many things in SOOO many words, lets see which ones fit ; Confusing, totally right, omg how can you write all that???. and how did you figure all that ouT? that seems like something that would take a long time to figure it out, to me it is, but to you demensiona it seems like you realized that right when youread all 3 books. Whoo! ok tty|!
And you right, what alot of things to think about, i mean i will NEVER look at the 3 books the same way again!
And you right, what alot of things to think about, i mean i will NEVER look at the 3 books the same way again!
oops said that 2x’s again, srry!
AHHHHH!!!!! you are soooooooooo right! i JUST saw the cover of the new italian version of pretties and zane is sooo majorly hot! (but not as HOT as mr.cullen over there *wink wink*)
i no thats A LOT 2 think about
ALOT
but how do u think demensiona figured it out ?????
OMG..that was kinda confusing, i would have never thought so much of the covers…
Love Love Love the trilogy. I have to get Extras..But what doesnt make sence is that its a trilogy yet theres another book on its way, thats comming out Oct 2…??? Anyways, im not complaning, just saying. Im so happy! Love the three books. mr.Westerfeld your a great author and my fab so far. ๐ I never really liked reading as much until I found Uglies. I spent hours hooked reading the three books. Cant wait to read Extras!
One more thing,Demensiona, how do know that that was Shay and not Tally on the Pretties cover? Did i miss something major? coes i remember Tally got sparcles too in her eyes too. Am i the only one lost?
You are a great author, but… ZANE? I loved him. So much. Yeah, of course David is great but …. Zane?
Demensiona, right after reading your post I ran to my room to grab the books. I only have Uglies and Specials with faces (I bought Pretties in London, Which has a barbie type doll on it) and it’s true about the eyes! I never noticed in Uglies her eyes have images! WOW. Thanks for the insight!
One more thing. When is the movie going to come out? When are there going to be trailers? Posters? The movie better be as good as the book. The only thing that scared me is that when I went ‘searching’ for info about the movie I got ‘Uglies is adapted from Scott Westerfeld’s Uglies.’ One word shook the life out of me. ADAPTED!?! BETTER BE DARN CLOSE TO THE BOOK. The book is amazing, no movie should ruin that. How are they going to do the hoverboards? The pretties? The specials? IS DAVID GOING TO BE HOT!?! (Sorry, David’s always been hot in my mind…)
AND what’s up with Extras? When? What’s it about? Will Shay return (I like Shay, sometimes even more then Tally-wa) and is the novel going to be in Asia? (As Aya (( Main Character, I hear for Extras)) is asian?)
AND one more thing… (I know, I tend to go on and on don’t I?)
When I was in London, I picked up Pretties (As I had finished Uglies on the plane. Bad bad Westerfeld! Writing a book one can’t put down! I was supposed to sleep on the way there!) The covers for Uglies and Pretties and Specials were completly different than the ones sold over here. For Uglies, it’s a bunch of random Ugly parts and for pretties a butt naked barbie doll with a tape measure around her waist. For specials, a rasor with blood on it. I was looking at the German book covers five minutes ago and they were people. Why in London does the cover not show people? Very creepy, the specials cover….
Thats all … for now…
Thanks for making a great series, can’t wait to read Extras!
ohhhhhhhhhh ok thanks demensiona
how the hell did you figure all that out? i would never concentrate that long!
Hi amy yeah the covers here (the UK) are really random and creepy but i think they fit the books. The German ones are the best though.
Pam scott said on.. i dont remember when but he said that on the cover of pretties its zane-la and shay-la not tally-wa and zane-la dont no why he put it that but whatever ๐ and amy i think all of us want totally good movie if they mess it up i will be pissed off so badly
Hi ALL! Haha!
Oh you’re ALL very welcome!!
I actually discovered everything AFTER reading ALL 3 books. Um earlier on the spoiler zone there was this whole discussion/ debate on images in Tally’s eyes on the Uglies Cover. And I was fotally flusterated because I couldn’t figure out the images or if Tally’s face was actually disfigured.In addition, I was REALLY trying to decipher the themes of Uglies.
But I don’t know ,I was in the process of re-reading uglies and I had stopped at the face morphing part and the whole LEFT SIDE thing and just put the 2 and 2 together! And I started noticing all these different aspects of the covers that I didn’t realize before, that were now suddenly making total sense in relation to the whole trilogy.
Yeah it took me a couple of late hours of concentration and flustration (well like 12:00p.m to 3:00), but yeah! DEFINETLY A LOT to think about. I defintely doubted, and confused myself MANY MANY times!And it did take me a WHILE to type all of it.(But it was totally important and I actually enjoyed doing it)!
Yep I was totally holding the books after I figure all this out(Uglies definetly has my smeared fingerprints on it).I’ll never look at the covers the same way again either(actually I never did after seeing the images in Tally’s eyes the first time)!
-Yeah chima-la Mr. Cullen/Mr. Masen(haha), I fotally hot!!!
Hi Ellie!
Hi Sarah!
Hi Amy Rogers!
Hi Amy!
Hi Rose-la!
-Yeah you guys, Scott said himself that SHAY and Zane are on the cover of pretties on this spoiler zone/ but I don’t know on the Perfetti cover.
-Yeah I believe that Extras is set in Japan and that there’s some kind of major environmental issue(Since Tally makes an appearance and since she’s a RANGER now). There’s a new 15 year old asian narrator named Aya, and her city has the pretty surgery as well.
-And I REALLY hope this movie is going to be fawesome!
Bye guys!!!!!Love to share my insights! And I love listening to all of yours!!Bye!
Oh an hi Pam!
i think on the Perfetti cover its Tally-wa and Zane-la cauz if tally-wa caught zane-la and shay-la like that shed be PRETTY PISSED OFF!!!! ๐ and i think shay-la-cutter maddy dr cable and david and tally-wa (well definitely tally-wa cauz scott said that himself :D) r goin 2 make an appearance what do u guys (not literally) think???? ttyl ๐
Wait a minute demensiona, how do you know that tally will be a ranger now???? i just thought she wouldappear somewhere else in the book but not as a ranger!!!! and i think the german covers are the best, and i have seen the UK covers online on google(type in pretties and it will be there) and is aya really asain? that would change the whole out look on things becaus ei thought she would be somewhere in the future USA and that would be PRETTY *hint hint* cool if it were some where else doing the operation! and OMG arent we writing soooo much these days? i mean it was usually demensiona writing alot then all of a sudden, im scrolling the 15 newest comments for, it feels like every hour!ok buh bye!!!!
thats what i thought chima-la but i thought scott said aya was in Diego at least thats what it said on the exras summary he gave us so yeah dunno ๐
OMG demensiona!! i was just reading(glimpsing) over Pretties and i realized that Zanes eyes are the same color as edwards(when edward is fully fed at least!) they are both GOLD eyed people we love!!! ok just wanted to share that bye bye!
OH OH OH!! (im on a roll today arent i??) i just realized from my info. above that the german cover of pretties zanes’ eyes are blue, when in pretties they are gold! AHHHHH!!! yay!!
Hi!
Yeah Sarah, haha I fotally agree on the Perfetti cover! Oh and PLEASE tell me I’m not seeing things! I remember Scott commenting that Extras is set in Japan. And Scott said that Aya wasn’t old enough for The Surgery yet, I don’t remember Diego having any surgeries.
Hi chima-la, haha you were(it’s 11:00p.m) on a roll today! Zane’s eyes were Liquid Topaz too? Haha, wow I’ve got to see this. And you’re totally right about the GREEN(hey my favorite color) eyes! Fawesome! And I never noticed that about Zane’s eyes on the German covers, cool!
(This is random chima-la, but I didn’t know that Edward’s last name was MASEN! I guess I overlooked that part the first time I read New Moon).
-And oh, I just INFERRED that Tally would be a RANGER since she was making enviromental threats at the end of Specials. And sorry about the really long posts, Writer’s Syndrome!
no no no no no scott said on 1 of his blogs aboout extras that Aya was 15 years old and she lived in diego if he hasnt changed his mind
Really? So Aya lives in Diego?Hmm.. how did I miss that? Thanks Sarah!
Wait Scott Said:
“Extras is set a couple of years after the รขโฌลmind-rain,รขโฌย a few earth-shattering months in which the whole world woke up. The cure has spread from city to city, and the pretty regime that kept humanity in a state of bubbleheadedness has ended. Boundless human creativity, new technologies, and old dangers* have been unleashed upon the world.
Culture is splintering, the cities becoming radically different from each other as each makes its own way into this strange and unpredictable future . . .
Itรขโฌโขs Diego times a planet, and itรขโฌโขs a pretty interesting time to be fifteen.
Thatรขโฌโขs how old my protagonist is. Thatรขโฌโขs right, Tally Youngblood is not the viewpoint character of Extras! Deal with it. Sometimes one needs new fish to fry.
But will Tally be making a guest appearance? Well, itรขโฌโขs not like she retired at the end of Specials. But maybe I should let her answer:
Be careful with the world, or the next time we meet, it might get ugly.
Heh, heh.”
-But I could’ve sworn that I heard something about her city being in Japan.(I mean Scott says that “The whole world woke up.”) But I’m not sure…
yeah thats what i saw well ill email scott and ask him ๐
They do have the pretty surgery in Diego they are just more relaxed about it.
yeah exactly Rose-la ๐
except they dont have the bubbleheadedness
well no 1 does now ๐
yeah no one has the bubbleheadedess anymore, but yeah Diego is a little more relaxed about the surgery than tally’s city(im soooo bad, i forgot the name of tallys city, was tallys city named? i cant remember!)
And yeah demensiona, Edwards last name was Masen, cool huh? and i found out soooooo much about the characters in Twilight, go to twilightlexiocn.com and you will find out sooooooooooooooo much!
And i didnt really think about tally being a ranger at the end of Specials, i mean i just thought that they(as in tally & david) will be wondering around in the wild.
Wait! wondering around in the wild? that sounds like i made them hobo’s!
yeah scott didnt tell us what tally’s citys was yeah i agree i thought it was just them in the wild ๐
i was looking back at what people said like a long time ago, and demensiona you said that when Zane died it was like when asland died in chronicles of narnia, and you are right! when asland died i was balling! and when zane died, i was crying soo hard, i was like why am i crying? its just a fictional character that seemed soooo real and lifelike…. lalala just to let cha know!
omg same CHIM-LA ๐ and hey again sorry i hate having to come back and read so much D: but ya im back
i reread pretties and specials today i i figured something out tally-wa had a flash tattoo on her left brow bjut on the cover of specials and it was on her right brow just something i was thinking about
really?! i need to read that now. i have twilight officially memorized and if i turn to any given page, i will know exactly what happened….
that wasnt really abotu the trilogy, but i just wanted to share that because nobody in my family knows what the heck i am saying when i talk about the book….srry, and i know what you meen ellie when you come back and there is a whole bunch of things to read and sometimes it gets SOOO frusturating to keep up with it all
yeah i JUST realized that today and i got Blue Moon today reading today and tomorrow
ya i mean oyyyy
huh???
what ellie?
oh, what happened to the days when peple had 50 things to say in one minute? come on we are supposed to talk and there is nobody to talk to, ok see you guys tonight
seriously i no what u mean chima-la
Anyone know when we’ll now about the
actor(esses) for the Uglies movie? Or the trailer? Or the poster? I’m dying here!
well no 1 nos Amy except the cast and crew if they have 1 or they r bein totally stubborn
When does it come out?
Are you like way older than me? Im 13
ok, they are like totally stalling when it comes to the movie, we dont know if they started casting or not, and nobody knows about the actors/actresses or anything, we here are very frusterated when it comes to the movie.
Yeah… I’ve wondered about that too. imdb.com says it’s coming out in 2008 but it hasn’t even been cast yet!
if the movie does come out in 2008, then they better start casting because there are alot of special effects to be put in(hover boards, etc) and if thye dont start casting now, then the movie will have to come out in early 2009 at the latest. And I( cant wait thayt long because I am already wanting to see the new 2008 movis which is still a ways away.!
I KNOW!!!! I’m so excited…. but I really hope it’s not disappointing. I have an idea of how everything and everyone looks…. I want to be amazed! Kind of like the Lord of the Rings;)
yeah, i have this veiw of everything, and it just makes it better when the author gives relly good details, and if the movie goes way off of what the book says, somebody will be complaining, and im not sayin names…….
*really
ok, i have a question for everybody: What would you do if zane survived and the doctors fixed him up and everything. Would that change the outlook in the story at the end of Specials? or would something else happen? Reply soon!
dat would b very interesting chima-la i think it would change the story completely
Hi guys!
Hi Sarah!INTERESTING on the Flash Tatoo/I didn’t ketch that. Gee it REALLY feels like I haven’t read Specials. Hm.. Maybe my mind wasn’t all there/ I had read New Moon Before I read Specials(smart right?Haha).
Hi Rose-la! Surgery’s realxed? Okay, Oh and I’m sixteen in October.
Hi Ellie!(What happened?)!
Hi Amy, I’m totally dying here too!
Hi Chelsea! Yeah, the Uglies movie is supposed to aire in 2008( I looked on IMDB too).
Hi chima-la!Yep, MASEN’s totally cool! And yeah I’ll totally check out twilight
lexicon!(Hey you read the first chapter of Midnight Sun right Chima-la. Because there’s something pretty interesting about the title).
And yep Twilight’s totally memorized, my FAVORITE chapter is Mind over Matter. For New Moon, it’s getting memorized, and my favorite chapter is Vote!
Hmm, as for the whole “Zane not Dying” scenario, hmm… well the truth is, I could NOT see Zane dying. I mean because in any GOOD trilogy, at least ONE central character has to be killed off or dissapear(In this case Zane). I also think that Tally would have stayed Tally-wa(which I COULD NOT/WOULD NOT handle).
Plus the whole boyfriend battle wouldv’e continued, and that’s pretty distracting.
Okay so added on to that question chima-la:
-What if Zane hadn’t split the cure w/ Tally?
-What if Tally had turned herself back into an ugly in Specials?
-What if Tally had never destroyed that tracking necklace in the first place?(Would she have met Zane? Would there even be a plot)?
-What if SHAY hadn’t been turned into a bubblehead, and had REALLY continued that arugement w/ Tally over David as SHAY, not Shay-LA?
-What if David had been turned into a Pretty?
-What if we knew the movie casting for Uglies?(haha)!
-What if the Uglies Trilogy was tied into the MIDNIGHTERS Trilogy and Peeps/The Last Days?Hmm?
Haha, the possibilties are ENDLESS!
-Bye guys!
I will answer the questions in the order you put them in demensiona
-dont you mean what if tally hadnt split the cure with zane? well either way, i think tally will feel bad, and help zane find a way to cure him.
– if tally turned herself into an ugly in specials, was it for david? well if she did turn herself, then the trilogy would have to be turned into 4books, because we want to know what happened right?
-i think she would have met zane, because she would still have an awesome story for the crims, and shay will be there in pretty town too. and i dont know if there would be a plot after that….
-if shay didnt turn into a bublehead, then maybe she would just lead a normal life as a pretty.
-if david had turned into a pretty, then there would be major arguments with tally and shay on who gets him, and who doesnt.
-i would find out right away if there was a cast, and it probably would be a good cast because the book is all around the world.(like harry potter, twilight)
-i dont know anything about the other books, so if they tied together, i would be lost forever!
ok bye!
I totally dont want Zane dead! I ruined that page of my book because I cried all over it.
To me its not just the fact that hes dead but that he died in the process of trying to please Tally who’d pushed him away because of his problems.And his problems had been caused by the pill which if Tally would have taken it along with the other one, he wouldnt have had it.
And the fact that I despise David.
I wish there wer More books to this series!
make MORE!
๐ ~~~~PLEASE~~~~
iM TOTALLY dying to see the uglies movie…
i want every1 to look how i pictured them.
chee i hope im not disapointed…:(
Ive already played it out in my head a bazillion times! I cant wait!!! ๐
Courtney-la i ruined my book by crying too, im totally pathetic and cry over everything lol.
Demensiona, omg i thought everyone that read uglies was like my age. and in answer to your questions:
-if zane hadnt split the cure with tally i dont think they would have gotten together
-i agree with chima-la there would have to be a fourth book. Would she be able to become an ugly again thoug?
-if she hadnt destroyed the necklace she would have satyed in the smoke and the story would be totally different
– Shay would have probably been so angry with david and tally that she would have left anyway, well i think so cos she didnt know about the lesions
– david would probably have been killed like Az was during the operation, because they would totally mess up his brain
– i cant answer the last one because ive never read them
Ive just started reading twilight i hope its good
ok bye
omg twilight is really good!! you wont be dissapointed.
what up demensiona how was the move and yeah i love those questions they r so fexcellent and yeah courtney i think all of us are totally dying 2 c the movies
Hello!
Hi Coutney-la! I don’t even favor Zane too much, and “I” even have to say that Tally-WA was totally harsh!Tally’s reaction was a slap in the face(even for me/ a David lover). But I know why she reacted like that/It was merely a defense mechanism. But I dislike the fact that Zane was disabled/and that he DIED in THAT manner. My brain always hurt for Zane ever sense I knew about the leisons.
-So what does that make me, a David/Zane lover? Is that possible?Hmm… I think the bottom line w/ me for Zane, is that I just didn’t like the person TALLY was w/ Zane.Yep, it was always about TALLY-WA. So now I’m thinking that I never REALLY had a problem w/ Zane.Hmm..
Hi chima-la!
(1).Okay! And I think I meant if Zane didn’t AGREE to splitting the cure.
(2).Well when she was Ugly, she was TALLY to me. And the result of 4 books sound good to me!
(3). Tally WOULD have an awesome story for the crims!Hmm, interesting on Shay.
(4).NORMAL life as a pretty?Hmm..
(5).Major Arguement over David? INTERESTING! I never thought of that.
(6).!
(7).Lost forever?! Haha. But Oh my gosh Chima-la! You HAVE to READ THEM! I mean if you thought the loss of ZANE was bad, then you are going to have T R O U B L E w/ midnighters!
Hi Rose-la!Yeah, I think here on the spoiler zone, we vary in ages. Wow, I don’t think I read much when I was 13, haha!
(1).I agree
(2).INTERESTING! Hmm, I’m not sure MYSELF if she could become an Ugly again!
(3). I agree
(4).Wow, Shay would have left!I never thought about that!
(5).Killed like Az?Wow you’ve got all the details of this trilogy LOCKED in your brain!
(6)NEVER READ!!! You HAVE to read MIDNIGHTERS!
-And hope? Haha, I’ve gotten over thirty people(including teachers) to read Twilight. Oh TRUST me, when I say its GOOD! And HIGHLY addictive, so I would strongly advise you to BEWARE!
Hi Sarah!!! Oh the move was fawesome! Hot, but Fawesome!I’ve never been stuck inside the confines of a house for so long, haha! But yeah thanks on the questions!And I fotally agree, we ALL want to see the movie!
-Oh and I forgot to mention that an earlier commenter on this zone said that it was STRICTLY “RUMORED” that actress “Emma Roberts” is casted as Tally.
C O U L D Y O U I M A G I N E T H A T !!
Hahahahahahaha!Bye guys!!!!
And the first page of Extras is fotally Fawesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait!!!
great on the move demensiona i fotally love the first page but as lace said in Peeps we need leverage we need fotally more but it is fexcellent ๐ but if emma roberts is tally ugh
wait wait wait! you saw the first page of Extras!? and demensiona, what is midnighters about? i might consider reading them…. ttfn!
Hello!
Hi Sarah! Thanks again on the move! And yeah I fotally love the first page of Extras too! And fove the Lace quoting, I fotally agree!
And yeah, could you imagine Emma ROBERTS cutting her arms for Specials? I don’t think so. I think Tally should either be Emily Browning/Danielle Panbaker, or some new random actress. I mean why not take the female on the cover of Uglies? Because if Emma Roberts IS casted, then acting ability is obviously NOT needed!
Hi chima-la! The first page of Extras is found here:
http://scottwesterfeld.com/blog/?p=228
-And quoted from Scott, “Midnighters, is a tale of five teenagers born on the stroke of midnight, for whom time freezes every night, revealing a dark and terrible hidden world.” and it’s totally Fawesome! And please do more than consider, READ!Haha!
Bye!
what up demensiona i no how moving feels and like making people cheery yeah i fotally fove lace and emma roberts as tally like i said ugh but maybe it should b 1 of us cauz who better than people who love talkin about tally and ups (uglies pretties and specials) ๐
omg, yeah i saw the cover right after i asked to question, im so dumb! and I should get midnighters, it sounds cool! and eww emma roberts being tally? thats a horrible thought because she doesnt look like a tally, she looks like, someone else…
oops, i mean first page, not cover. and it ws so cool, i was like give me more please, come on just one more page please???? lol
*was
midnighters is a great triology chima-la youll love it and emma roberts as tally or any1 ugh
emma doesn’t have what it takes to be tally
I really liked Zane I can’t believe he died
i agree allichie with the tally thing but i have 2 disagree on the zane thing im a david lover ๐
yeah, emma is not a Tally, and never will be a Tally. I was a Zane-lover, David was cool though too!
totally chima-la emma not tally thats that
OMG i finished twighlight. It ws amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im so glad you mentioned it or i wouldnt have read it. It’s the best!!!! Ive ordered the sequel from amazon now, New Moon, and i hope it’s just as good.
Oh yeah and ive also forced all my friends to read it. They are like addicted like i am. lol
And yet another thing, you are right when you say twighlight is highly addictive: i accidently stayed up reading till 4 in the morning cos i was so absorbed in it
Ok ill actually talk about what we’re supposed too on her now. Emma Roberts who is that? Ive never heard of her. That probably makes me sound pathetic to everyone else but anyway…
And sarah, how can people be david lovers??? I just dont get it. Zane forever! lol
Also im sure everyone has senn the uglies questions on scott’s blog, why dont we all answer them here? They are:
1. Have you ever had a friend like Peris, who abandoned your friendship after they moved away?
2. At first, did you hope Tally would get the operation? When did you change your mind? (Or did you?)
3. Have you ever found yourself trusting someone more or paying more attention to what they said not because they deserved it, but just because of their looks?
4. In what ways did Tallyรขโฌโขs trip through the wild prepare her for what she learned in the Smoke?
5. Would you give up your ability to think independently in exchange for being happy, beautiful, perpetually healthy, and rich?
6. How did David see Tally differently than she saw herself?
7. If Shay could have gone back in time and never have met Tally, do you think she would?
8. Other than the pretty operation, what are the main differences between the pretty society and our own? (Are there any ways in which the pretty society is healthier than ours?)
9. To what extent did Tally decide her own fate, and how much did other people decide it for her?
10. The Rusty civilization collapsed because of its dependence on oil. In what ways is your lifestyle dependent on oil and gasoline? How easily would you survive if it all disappeared one day?
If thats already been done sorry, but i only just joined in.
Rosie-la i loved david cauz he saw who tally was not just some random pretty who took pills that damaged his brain
Hello!
Hi Sarah! Cherriness is a fawesome and MOST appreciated characteristic! And Lace is fool! And I fotally agree w/ the motives behind being a David lover!
Hi Chima-la!
Hi allichie! Yep, Emma Roberts doesn’t have what it takes to be Tally. And I consider myself a Remorse for Zane/David lover!
Hi Rose-la! Emma Roberts is a tween actress who has her own show and does movies for presumely younger audieneces.She’s a well known face in Hollywood. I would consider her maybe an actress in the making. She doesn’t look or couldn’t fulfill the part/role of Tally Youngblood.
And I’m glad that you enjoyed Twilight, and that you’re spreading the good word around! You’ll love New Moon the SECOND time you read it. And the series is HIGHLY addictive! I think about the Twilight series CONSTANTLY!
Great Critical Thinking questions Rose-la! I don’t believe that these questions have been presented in the past so no apologies! I’ll try to answer them to my best ability!:
(1).Nope
(2).Yes at first out of mere curiosity of Tally’s appearance, and out of hopes of Tally’s reuniting w/ Peris.At the time, I thought that Peris would be Tally’s David/Zane. I changed my mind once Tally had reached the smoke, and when David had started showing affection towards Tally.
(3). Because I’m human, shamefully yes.
(4).Hmm, I’m not sure/The wording of the question confuses me a bit.
(5).No! My brain is the most important thing to me! That’s why Schnizphrenia(I don’t know how to spell it) is one of my greatest fears. I can’t afford to loose my mind(questioning my sanity and reality), and or loosing control over my thoughts.
(6).I think Sarah pretty much answered this one. David saw the whole image of Tally(not solely a left or a right side). He admired her accomplishments, and accepted all of her flaws and imperfections. He treated Tally like a person, not an android.
(7).No! I don’t believe Shay would.
(8).I admire the pretty world’s preservation of the environment(Global Warming), and their concern for health/resorces/and the effective law enforcement.
(9).Ugh difficult! All that I can conclude is that Tally distinguished herself as TALLY. And others rather INFLUENCED the decisions leading up to her fate.
(10).I wouldn’t fair well because others couldn’t.The very pen that I’m writing w/ is construed of oil. Maybe in an ideal world we could fair. But definetely not w/i the U.S..
-Oh and the deleted part of Specials is VERY interesting. But yeah, I would hate the outcomes and motives of conflicts to be obvious and predictable.
Bye!
if you would like to be in the scott westerfeld chatroom, im me at dessimetrics13. the chatroom is called ObsessiveRefreshers.
Hey guys demensiona lace is fotally fool and yeah im glad im not the only david lover around ImInLoveWithJonathan where is the chat room
if you would like to be invited in please go to the first page of extras post and comment w/ your screen name. one of the obsessed refreshers will invite you in.
ok ImInLoveWithJonathan this may sound stupid but cauz im a blonde it might make sense how do u get 2 the first page of the extras post … yeah told u im a blonde
sarah- it’s the comments on scott’s EXRTAS post- the post about the first page of extras
oh gratzi allichie that mean thank you in italian
Sarah what difference does being blonde make??? Im blonde too.
Demensiona why will i only like new moon the SECOND time i read it?????? And yeah im thinking about it constantly too. Is there any more after new moon?
Cant think of anything else to say today after saying so much last time.
byee
Rose-la
1.there are three more after twilight that I know of:
Eclipse
Breaking Dawn
Midnight Sun(Edward’s side of the story)
they haven’t come out yet, though
2.haven’t you heard any blonde jokes?
3.you’ll like new moon the second time you read it because you already know what is going to happen and can pay attention to the middle
Twilight atarted out as just something to read on my vacation to AZ, but now I’m addicted to it!
Sarah- I’d say, “you’re welcome” in french but I cant spell it- desole(I think thats how you spell sorry)
to anyone who cares- I think that if Tally had never met Shay the whole Uglies series would have never happened, so thank you Shay!
merci allichie well some people think im stupid even though i get sstraight a’s since im a blonde
I don’t think you are stupid
Hello!
-Hi ImInLoveWithJonathan!
-Hi Sarah, no, that’s a question that I had too about the chatroom!Hahaha!
-Oh sorry ROSIE-LA, YOU read Twilight?I always get ROSE-LA and ROSIE-LA mixed up, sorry! Yep, Allichie pretty much answered your questions/ And there’s more books to follow after Midnight Sun! So YAY!
-Hi Allichie, cool you vacationed in AZ? Awesome! And I care so, Thank you Shay!(Good point)!
-Bye!
Hey Demensiona
yes, I ment Rosie-la, sorry
Even though it was sunny outside, I couldn’t put the book down! I finished it on the last day in AZ.
Rose-la and rosie-la is the same person i just decided to change my name. Sorry if that was confusing. What is Midnight Sun? Is it another twilight book?
Sorry about the last one. I didnt read allichie’s comment. i must look like a dumb blonde now. And yes i have heard blonde jokes, i just dont like them cos im blonde. (well not naturally lol)
How do you know that they (the other books) exist if they havent come out yet?
Edward’s side of the story would be interesting, i think.
I also think that everyone has to agree that Edward is better than david and zane, so that settles the david/zane arguement 9if it was an arguement)
Rosie-la
Stephenie Meyer has a website
http://www.stepheniemeyer.com
you can read the first chapter of Midnight Sun on her website(It’s soooo fawesome)
I agree with Rosie-la
Edward is better than David and Zane combind
Yeah he so is.
thanks for the website, ive just been on it and read the first chapter of new moon and midnight sun, it is totally fawesome
Hello!
Hi allichie!You finished on your last day in AZ? That’s fawesome!And yep, Midnight Sun is fawesome! But note the title, the state Alaska, is called “The land of the MIDNIGHT SUN”, interesting huh. (Remember the “family” living in Denali?)!
And hi Rose-la/Rosie-la!I know that there’s more Twilight series books because Stephenie Meyer said that she had no intention of stopping at book four. And I agree, Edward Anthony Masen Cullen, is INHUMANLY hot!!!!!!!!!!!NO ONE can compare/ so we’ve DEFINETELY settled that battle!
Bye!
Hi demensiona, how do you know his fulll name??? its probably in the book that i still havent got. im so impatient now. I hope it comes tomorrow. cant wait for eclipse either…
Bye!
oh, soooo sorry i havent been on in a while, i was camping and just got home today. eclipse comes out august 7(believe me, i’ve been counting the days) and there are going to be more than 4 books in twilight series. And omg i think Edward Anthony Masen Cullen is the hottest name in the entire world, but speaking about names, whats zanes last name? ok bye!
Hi!
Hi Rosie-la, I found out his real name off of wikipedia/twilightlexicon!And yep, Eclipse is HIGHLY anticipated!
Hi chima-la! Camping? How fun!(I’ve never been). Yep Edward Anthony Masen Cullen IS the hottest name of the centuries! And I’m not sure what Zane’s last name is, was it said?
Bye!
Yeah i agree with you, a totally hot name. Im counting down the days till eclipse too. even though i still havent got new moon (grrrr). I have no idea what Zane’s last name is, i dont think its ever mentioned.
bye
Zane-la’s last name wasnt mentioned
i want to find out zanes last name before extra’s comes out. And i was looking at my uglies book, and if you look into tallys eyes,there is a shadow of a person in her eyes. who is it? it looks like a man, but how can we know?
Im not sure the shadow in her eyes is anything particular. I dont think anyone knows zanes last name, maybe not even scott, lol. how are you going to find out??
bug him until he tells. lol
good plan
the shadow in tallys eyes r either dr cable in special circumstances rooom or david at the smoke zanes last name is -la …jk jk ttyl
Hi!
Hi Rosie-la! Yep Edward’s full name is totally hot! And yeah I’m celebrating the Eclipse count down w/ the Eclipse quote of the day!
I love them!
Hi Sarah! Yeah I agree, the front cover of uglies probably has an image of David and the smoke, and the back cover probably has an image of Dr.Cable and a Special Circumstances room, like you said!
Hi Chima-la! Yeah awesome plan! But I think Zane really doesn’t have a last name. Some of Scott Westerfeld’s characters simply don’t have last names.
Bye!
I finally got new moon, going to read it now. I may not be back for some time. lol
i am like counting down the days for eclipse to come out, and like demensiona, i am celebrating with the quotes. and zane has gotta have a last name……lets all go an bug scott…. and omg i was rereading specials last night and was like omg, i can’t believe i forgot zane died! it was like i pushed my sadness away into the back of my head, then when i read it, i was like ahhhhhhh why why why??? couldnt dr.cable die? or somebody else less hot? gosh why scott, WHY?!?!?!?!?!??!
How could you forget than Zane dies? its like the reason i hate specials so i cant forget it. I agree with you WHY?!?!?!? I am also celebrating with the quotes. New Moon looking good so far…
Hello!
Hi Chima-la! Yep, the Eclipse quotes are awesome!And I’ve simply forgotten my intial reaction to Zane’s death.
Hi Rosie-la,haha, good luck on New Moon!(Tear).
Bye!
i know! when somebody mentions new moon, i like start to go back to when edward left bella
and i forgot my reaction to zanes death too! its like omg i wad crying over this boy, then, when i get involved with another book, i forget him!)sounds like an affair!)
OK i dont like New Moon anymore, it sucks. Why did he leave????
OK finished it now, Its good actually.
i was like when you posted the first post, what? you dont like it????? of course he left! but he came back and said he would turn bella! then you said it was good, and i was like whoo!
Hello!
Hi chima-la! Yep, my mind falls back to the blank pages and my screaming from the phone incident !!!When Bella winces from memory, I do too! And yep, my reaction is currently forgotten. I think I just felt remorse. And I know! I was about to have a panic attack before I saw Rosie-la’s most recent comment!
Hi Rose-la! Yep, as you’ve discovered, Edward left because he’s the stubborn Edward that we love to love! And yeah, New Moon was totally fawesome! But I like Stephenie Meyer’s intial ending for New Moon better!
Bye!
what i like about new moon is eclipse! and i am like ouch, when bella goes back to her ‘zombie’ days. and i have like no reaction to when zane dies now, and i am now rooting for david, because him and tally are together, and he loved her for who she was, and not for what she looked like. zane did the same thing too, but i think i liked david all along ๐
Hi Demensiona, what was the initial ending to New Moond??? I like the one used buut im curious to know what it was originally.
Privet!
Hi Chima-la! Yep I can’t wait for Eclipse! I’m going crazy!And Oh my gosh, you’ve realized that you’ve liked David all along? Fawesome(haha, cute happy face/I guess it’s kind of hard admitting it)!
Hi Rosie-la!The original epilogue ended w/ Bella discovering that Jacob was a werewolf(changes the whole book around) through Edward. Edward ended the book w/ a cute comment!
http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/nm_outtakes.html
Bye!
I agree with stephenie when she said that Jacob would have gone to Bella’s house to tell her. I like the way the book ended more than the initial ending. Jacob wouldn’t have just left her.
When Jacob told her to think about the scary stories I was screaming at Bella because she was taking so long to figure it out!
(oh, my god, I can’t stop talking about the twilight series)
In uglies I LOVED David, and then in pretties I LOVED Zane, but in specials I couldn’t decide and I still can’t
Hello!
I agree allichie, but I’m starting to realize that if New Moon would’ve ended w/ the intial epilogue, then the book would’ve been MUCH shorter. And after waiting for like a year(I didn’t have to wait for New Moon though!) I don’t think that readers would’ve intaked the shortness of the book to well.
I figured out that Jacob was a werewolf in the chapter:The Meadow/when he as circling around Bella as a wolf.(I never thought that he was apart of some kind of “Cult”).
I was just screaming at Bella, at the fact that she didn’t run after Edward/cling onto him, when he was leaving. That she BELIEVED EVERYTHING that Edward was saying so easily /I didn’t believe it for a second! And the whole phone incident/why?! Well everything had to happen for a reason, right! Or at least that’s what I have to try and convince myself to believe!
-Oh and you still can’t decide allichie? I’ve decided that Tally’s flying solo for a while.
-Haha, bye!
yeah I figured it out in the meadow too(why does it take characters so long to figure things like this out? And, yeah, the story would have been alot shorter if she didn’t know till the end)
I was crying and screaming at Bella when Edward left, “NO, DON’T LET HIM LEAVE!!!!”
I never believed it but I understood why he was doing it(and I knew that he would come back someway or another) and it made it easier to let the story happen
Yeah, I guess you’re right, Demensiona, Tally’s flying solo
I kinda knew all along that zane was going to die because in the beginning I opened the book accidentally and it was “The world was too bubbly and gorgeous for Zane too be missing from it.”(sorry if the words are off im not reading this directly!!!) My friend thinks im crazy cause im like obsessing over your books and wasting away my summer!!!! All for what???? Extras doesn’t come out till October and im still obsessed with your books that im purposely using “pretty” speak around my BFF Randi who thinks im crazy just to get her to read it!!!!!!! think it will work??? And if not, any other ideas??????????
-throw the book at her/ put her in the hospital and give her the book as a present to read, and telll her if she doesnt read it, youll put her in the hospital again
-birthday present(every birthday until she reads it)
-hide it under her pillow when you spend the night and say the tooth fairy was being nice to you by giving you an ‘extra’ present
Anybody got anymore?
And i was obsessed over the book sooo much i finished all three in a month. staying up till three in the moring was worth it too!
OMG!!! i no i havent been on in awhile but i LOVE the first chapter of Extras its a little dizzy makin but i LOVED IT !!!!! 1 question tho does Aya live in Tally-wa’s old city or in Diego
Privet!
-Hi allichie! Haha, I believe that the protagonist either thinks too much, or too little!And yeah I agree, I fully understood Edwards intentions/motivations for leaving. And yep, Tally’s Miss Independent right now!
-Hi Hannah-wa! Hmm, I don’t really have an idea for persuasion at this moment, I think Chima-la’s got all the fawesome ones!
Hi chimma-la! Hahaha, I can see you’re VERY persuasive! And wow you finished in a month? I finished over the span of like 2 years!
_______________________________________________
And the first chapter of Extras is fotally fawesome! I can conclude that Aya Fuse and I are going to get along just fine!And they have siblings now? Fawesome!
Bye!
Hi Sarah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Sorry, didn’t see your comment! Aya Fuse lives somewhere in Japan, I believe!
I discovered the Uglies series at my school’s book fair last november and I think I finished all Scotts books by March(except So Yesterday)
wow, all his books are so addicting!
ya know, I think I read more books in 8 months than I have in four years of my Ugliesless life
Hello!
Hi allichie! Yeah, the first time that I saw uglies was in a scholastic bookorder.
Yep Scott’s books are fotally addicting! And I just love it!
And yeah, after reading Uglies in ninth grade, I was a fotal bookworm!(I didn’t really read books in middle school).
-Bye!
ya know, I don’t see how my sister can read books like Nancy Drew or Confessions of an Almost Movie Star
(SO BORING)
and yeah, I’ve too joined the relm of the bookworm after reading Scott’s books
I got so totally obsessed by Uglies i finished all three really quickly, in like two weeks. The same happened with Twilight, i finished it in less than a day, same with new moon. but im obsessive with everything so its not exactly surprising, lol. Since then i have becomw evn more of a bookworm.
hannah-wa – maybe if she really wont read it you could read it to her, like every time she speaks to you just read something out of the book until you finsh it. I cant tghink of anymore ideas than that, good luck with it.
Im addicted SO much to twilight. Im so impatient for eclipse now. and nineteen days is such a LONG time!!!!
Hello!
Hi allichie! Yeah I was never really into that whole Nancy Drew scene. Uglies was definetely a starter book!
Hi Rosie-la! Oh you read Uglies in two weeks? And Twilight in one day?(I read Twilight in 5 days in order to try to savor it!)! And I’m definetely impatient for Eclipse! Only 19 days? Wow I’m anxious!
Bye!
what do you mean only nineteen days, thats ages. lol
Well I’m pretty occupied w/ 19 more Eclipse quotes, haha!
But no,compared to practically a YEAR, 19 days is almost minuscule!
Ooh well actually 18 Eclipse quotes/days now!
I love the quotes, very funny some of them. What is the time difference between the UK and USA? i was wondering cos i want to win one of those extras things. does anyone know?
OMG I can’t believe that Extras is coming out. I really wish that the cutters wern’t cured and that Zane didn’t die. I would definatly be special if I could choose.
Does anyone think that Tally, David, Dr. Cable, or the Cutters will be in Extras?
time seems to drag on when you are so close to your destination! 18 days is feeling like an ETERNITY!
It definitely is!!!
Hello!
Hi Rosie-la! Um I think that you can still try to win the Extras contest thing/ I’ve kind of given up. Us on the West coast of the U.S. are at a great disadvantage!
Hi Shay! Hmm.. all I know is that Tally for sure, will most likely make an appearance. I mean she’s a total global celeb!
Hi allichie! Hmm well I’ve kind of lose track of the days now(I threw away my smallville calendar/I’m thinkig that that wasn’t such a smart move). But yeah, haha! No you guys should of heard me last year, I was going finsane. I think after all this time, I’ve drained the impatience out of me………
Haha what am I kidding! I’m still Twilight series insane! I’m just numbing the impatience a bit!Hahah!
S E V E N T E E N
M O R E
D A Y S
FELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hahaha, bye guys!
OMG!! only seventeen more days??!!! i havent been paying attenton, but i have a timer on my zwinky, i am like sooooooooo freakin out because whenever i hear august 7th i am like AH! eclipse eclipse eclipse …….. then when people mention october 5th, i am like extras extras extras…… ahhhhh! isnt it totally cool that my two fav books both start with an ‘e’? and that the hottest immortal starts with an ‘e’ too?! but edward makes E sound better when you say edward!
im sorry i havent been on in a while, i have been caught up with rereading all of my books(twilight new moon uglies pretties specials) and i havent had time really because of summer and ya…… i am so happy, wait more then happy! Harry potter will be here tomarrow! i am not a mean bad spoiler, and will not spoil anything, and i do not now why people do that! do they want to SPOIL it for the people who want to read?! anyways, i will be trying to make harry last until eclipse, but if i am still reading harry while eclipse comes out, then harry will stop, eclipse will go, then when i am done with eclipse(two days tops ๐ ) harry will be in the picure until extras! there! whew!
oh my god, chima-la, that’s fawesome! Eclipse, Extras, Edward! E is a hot letter!
um hey im new here and i just finished the specials book it was soo cool but i do want tally and david 2 be 2gether but thats just me. i heard that there is an uglies movie is comimg out in like a year or two. is this true?
or am i living in a fantcy
i was so into uglies i read the book prettys in eights hrs
Yeah it is true that there is a movie. BUT no one knows anything about it yet.
Ok from now on E is definitely my favourite letter. I am hoping harry potter will last me until eclipse, but i dont think it will.
16 days to go
Hey! I just remembered that my best friend’s name starts with an E! E is now my favorite letter too! Eclipse, Extras, EDWARD!
I need to talk to scott. he needs to know to make a movie or another book about this. He has to, Ill hurt him if i have to.. hehe
Get it cause the specials say that. kinda.. yeah
OMG A MOVIE. wow. my life is amazing today.

WOW I HAVENT TALKED HERE IN A BIT AND HAVENT BEEN READING MUCH D;;;;;;; AKA *CRYS*
well cuz i was in the hospital for breaking my arms D:
14 days to go!
(im obsessed practically)
whats up???
i am like taking my time with harry potter cause i want to be able to read it until eclipse comes out, then if i still have more to read, i can read it until extrads! weeeeeeee! lalala!!!!!!!! ok, imma gonna go n read!!!!
Privet!
Hi chima-la!You won’t be hearing any spoilers from me!Hmm and yeah, I’ve been reading Pretties aloud to 2 of my siblings/I’ve reread Twilight and the first chapter of Eclipse/and I’m in the process of rereading New Moon! And you’re right, E is fotally hot!
Hi allichie!I agree, E’s my favorite letter now too!
Hi gracye-la! WELCOME! You know, I actually want Tally to fly solo for a little while/trust me, she NEED’s to be!
Hi Rosie-la!2 weeks and 2 days I believe!
Hi Shannon or nickname shay so shay-la! Your name’s truly original!
Hi Ellie! Fotally sorry about the arms!
Hi Shay! You’re very welcome!And yep, Specials was awesome!And what’s up? Honestly, nothing at all!
Hahaha, bye guys!
i have now got 10 people to read twilight. and i will get more people to aswell
tally solo!!?? i dont no if i can take that she needs david. she could go solo if she realy wanted to but dose she want to??
oh and who would want to be a special? they are evil i tell ya……..EVIL!
They ARE evil, why would anyine want to be one. I’d much rather be dumb than evil.
Hello!
Hi Rosie-la! Yes! Recruit more!
And hmm… I’d actually want to be either an ugly or a ranger!
Hi Grayce-la! I don’t think it’s really a matter of WANTING to be solo. Tally needs to get her footing and fully establish herself. Once she’s done that, then sure, she can start back up a relationship w/ David! And I have no complaints about that!
-And who would want to be a Special?Hmm… someone who’s trying to find themselves/ and fails to see themselves as either a ugly or a pretty?Someone who wants to be in power, authoritative, independent…?
Bye!
This may sound wierd, but if i was Tally i would feel wierd, or unfaithful going off with David after Zane had died, even if time had passed. I dunno thats just me though.
i would feel bad, but you can’t hold on to the past, come on!!!! if she stayed with zane in Diego, then what would happen to poor david waiting for her back in the ruins? she would have to move on
yay! only 12 more days!!!!!!!!! weeeeeeee!!!! i cant wait!!!!!! *dances in circles*
Wait, what I inferred Rosie-la from “Specials”
was that Tally and David were FRIENDS. And I agree chima-la, she would have to move on but I don’t know if she could/would THAT fast.
And I can tell you which actresses are NOT going to be Tally YoungBlood(Haha!Do you SEE what the producers have done to me!):
-Emma Roberts
-Emily Browning(Tear)
-Alexis Bledel
-Miley Cyrus
-Anna Paquin
-Kristen Kreuk
-Emily Van Camp
-Kay Panabaker
-Danielle Panabaker(Tear)
And the list goes on…..
Who the FELL is she?!!!!!!
-And on a more happier note:

so in short i will wait till i read the whole extras book it will be more exciting that away.
chima-la im anti-special r u?
yeah been totally fool but leaving tomorrow were lookin at stuff
Hello!
Hi chima-la! Hot in SAN DIEGO? It hasn’t been THAT hot for what seems like YEARS! Then again it depends were you live in San Diego, and the area that I lived at for my last 3 years was abnormally FREEZING!
Hi Gracye-la! You know what, I’m understanding Specials MUCH better now.
Hi Sarah! Glad you enjoyed yourself!And looking’s good!
_______________________________________________
– Oh and I meant to ask you out of mere curiosity….. Are those June bugs(That’s what my mom called them), or those JAPANESE BEATLES going crazy right now? I believe it’s about that time..
I don’t know HOW I’ve functioned in school all of these years. I’m telling you, people freak out BIG time/including me(because they sound like a swarm of bees).
Just RUN in September! Because I’m CONVINCED that the San Diego ones can see!
YAY
NINE
DAYS!
AND
66
FOR EXTRAS!
Bye! ^_^
I juat found out the worst news. eclipse doesn’t come out in the UK untill october!!!!!!!!!!!!! well thats what i’ve heard anyway.
oh no! really?? well, it still comes out on the seventh for the bookstores here in california.
am i anti-special? what does that mean? am i against specials the book, or the creepy people that are mean and emotionless? help!
i havent seen a june bug in so long, but i have seen water bugs, and those things are huge and ugly! have any of you seen a silver fish? its not a fish at all! its a bug that is silver and looks like it swims on the ground. EWWWW!!
totally off-topic! BUGS!
i mean the creepy people of course!! i love the book not as good as uglies but great
Hello!
Hi Rosie-la!What?! Oh no, yeah Eclipse was originally supposed to be released in October.How are you going to go on the internet w/o hearing spoilers after awhile? Gee that’s forrible, I hope that it was just a rumor flying around!
Hi chima-la! Yeah I haven’t seen AS much of them as I’ve seen in the past, but still, they’re there and humming!This might sound cruel but I killed one w/ my H A N D STRICTLY out of reflex. And Silver WHAT?
-Ugh, yeah I think we could stop talking about bugs now, I’m getting goose bumps! But bugs act as a nice distraction…. right? Hahaha!
Hi gracyce-la! Hmm, I don’t know, it’s kind of a tie between Specials and Uglies right now for me! Pretties just seemed like a transtion to me.
-AND GOOD NEWS! Eclipse is ABOUT :
S I X H U N D R E D
A N D
T W E N T Y – N I N E
P A G E S!(629!)
Bye!
uglies is my fave book ever!!
ok i have new news. apparently it was just a rumour and eclipse is coming out on august 7th. thank god, i dont know if i could have waited that long!
My favourite book was pretties, i dont know why. i guess it’s because i hated the ending of specials and i didnt like tally much in uglies.
i dunno what my fav was, its a tie sort of, but pretties comes ina little bit above all. i didnt like zane-la going almost brain dead!
Hello!
Hi grayce-la! Yeah Uglies WAS fawesome, and now thinking back, I CAN say that Uglies was my favorite!
– I liked the books in this order: 1,3,2
Hi Rosie-la! That’s FANTASTIC news! And you know actually for me, it’s the opposite:
-I LIKED the way Tally was in Uglies and I liked the ending of specials(I didn’t like the execution of Zane’s death though, but I did like the letter).
Hi chima-la! I agree, I didn’t like Tally-WA associating Zane’s name w/ crippled every five seconds.
Bye!
haha im a retard. I thought Extras came out LAST october. haha. so i went to the library and i was like uhhh can i have extras.and their looking and looking and like uhh. that comes out THIS october. and im like wow. Shays retarted
Yeah My favorites go
3.1,2
I really liked how actionpacked three was and pretties was throwing me off sooo much but still i loved all of them. cant wait till extras. i wonder if tally will be in it!
i know demensiona, tally was like oooohhhhh shoot, the parapaligic (cripple) is coming, omg im kissing the parapaligic. AHHHHHHHHHH gotta get away!!!!!! gosh, i would be like i should do whatevah i can to make my sort of boyfriend happy and if it mean kissing him, oh well, and it doesnt bother me that much if somebodu has a disability( TRUST me, i have 2 blind friends, its hard ) bye bye!
in order, i say, ummm 2,1,3 only because i liked pretties, then uglies, and i didnt like the end of specials, one litttle thing canreally throw it off.
i guess if i had to put them in order i would say 2,3,1 because even though i hated the ending of specials some of it was quite good. i liked uglies a lot but i just thought that it was a bit like an introdution, if that makes sense.
Hey, I finally finished reading all 3 books last night and I tried to choose which was best, but they all have their greatest qualities that I just couldn’t choose! When I was reading the books, I was totally attached. They were the only books that I actually got sucked into. I loved the character, Tally. I had dreams about the books and I related them to real life. I wanted to know what gave you the inspiration to create these characters and the setting? I just wanted to say I love the books that I will be reading them again soon. Now, I am off to buy The Midnighter’s Trilogy:Book 1.
Privet!
Hi Shay-la!Hmm.. sounds like something that “I’d” assume! And I’m 99 percent sure that Tally will be in Extras!
Hi chima-la! Oh THAT’s how you spell it. But yeah through Specials, I was pretty much tuning out Tally’s nonsense. I was REALLY listening for Shay’s comic relief! And I mean come on, Zane’s hand was ONLY shaking? I had a hard time finding Tally’s logic reading Specials the second time around (I was more open-minded this time/namely with Zane).
Hi Rosie-la! Yeah it does make sense. My sister said the same thing, that like Uglies was like everything BEFORE the action in Specials. But not that she didn’t like it. My sister’s a Zane lover, but she likes David too. She thinks that David just wasn’t very understanding of the whole pretty operation or something/my sister wanted Tally pretty too.
-My brother’s like me: Our favorite book is Uglies and we both pretty much hands down like David. My brother likes Dr.Cable and Shay(He likes to make jokes about some of the things the say and do/it’s hilarious)!
Hi Julia-Wa! Yeah I’ve had some Uglies dreams and I relate the books to real life too. And
E N J O Y
M I D N I G H T E R S!
Bye!
i havent had any dreams soooo far, i probably did, maybe… but i forgot…
if my brother was into the uglies trilogy, then he would probably make jokes too. he’s just like that, whenever we need a laugh, we come to him. he’s hilarious!!! ๐
And yeah, uglies was like a intro, up till she went to the smoke, then it all began. bye people!
Hello!
Hi chima-la! Yeah I’d say that I have short-term memory, I only remember vivid dreams!
-Yeah brother’s are always good for a laugh!^_^ Actually, my BROTHER has been my comic relief for Specials(I’m reading it aloud to my brother and one of my older sisters/we’re almost to part III). It’s just really the Dr.Cable imitations that REALLY kill me!^_^
And I agree chima-la; at THAT point in the book!
Bye!
Ahh. I love David. And Zane. But David saw Tally for who she was. I mean seriously. I loved that the most. and David stuck with her the whole time.. Its great
did you know that you are always having dreams when you sleep even though you are not consciously aware you are having them?
I thought it was so shallow of Tally to push Zane away just because he was disabled(I got really mad at her)that’s what made me want to throw the book across the room
Hello!
Hi Shay-la! Yep, it’s truly great!
Hi allichie!Hmm.. that’s what my sister said but I didn’t believe her. Because I could’ve sworn that one night I blinked my eyes and it was morning/I was SO energized. But now that I have a second oppinion, I’ll believe it!
But besides the RARE vivid dreams, my dreams are compleletly boring/I’m CRAVING a nightmare(s), haven’t had one in eight years, I wonder why that is…?
And Tally’s “Special,” thoughts made me want to throw the book across the room too!
Bye!
I never think dreams are boring, I get most of my writing ideas from dreams, like this one:
1. Escapism
Run.
The dark corridor lay before me, never ending and never changing. The doors continued to fly by rapidly, and the torches kept up theyรขโฌโขre ominous glow. I could feel my heartbeat in my chest and my lungs were gasping for breath, but I couldnรขโฌโขt stop.
RUN!
My sight was hazy with the effort, but I couldnรขโฌโขt give up, not now. The man that seemed to be everywhere was was yelling at me, and I had to listen to him. I couldn’t stop now, not after all that Iรขโฌโขd been throughรขโฌยฆรขโฌยฆ
RUN!!!!
I screamed and forced my legs to move faster, but I couldnรขโฌโขt escape the doom that was sure to catch me. Then, amidst my raging emotions, a single thought crossed my mind; what was I running from?
Gee that was fawesome Ms. Poetic!Wow, you had me intrigued!Ooh and I like the title too! Sound’s like the prelude to a fawesome novel!
Hmm, I dream simply out of fatigue/ if not, I’d never go to sleep. No my dreams for the most part, are ridiculously realistic and monotonous.
-Oh and you know how they said that you can’t see your face in your dreams? Well they’re wrong, I did once, and that’s seriously the only dream that was WORTH remembering for me.
Dreams, interesting aren’t they?Whether programed or not!
Bye!
it is the first part of a story I am writing
hey, does Ultraviolet sound like a cool novel name to you?
i love the movie ultraviolet! and yeah that does sound like a good title!
And i found out that you can have like 11 dreams in one night and only remember one of them, creepy huh?
and one time in my dream, i wished for a cat , and in my dream one popped up! it felt really wierd though, because up till that night, i was like, okay in my dream tonight, i will wish for a cat, and i always forgot when i was dreaming! then one night i remembered! wow…..
sometimes when i see something small and meaning less, i dream a whole dream about it!
also, do you ever have a dream, but you feel like your awake because you can hear everything around you, then in your dream, you get hit or fall, and then you jump/wake up and your like ouch, how’d i get off my bed??
well, I had a running dream and I woke up and I was panting and I had this really sad dream about a girl who was killed and I woke up and I was crying
I had a dream about falling that jerked me awake and I hit my head
I could go ad nausium(is that how you spell it?) about dreams
ya know what, the human mind is too complicated to understand
has anyone ever sleepwalked before?
Hello!
Hi allichie! Sure, that title sounds fotally fawesome to me!And hmm.. I’m not sure if that’s how you’re supposed to spell it, but you dreams sound too exciting for me! And sleepwalking? Sounds like fun to me!
Hi chima-la! Oh my gosh, I’m so jealous! You LUCID DREAMED! I’ve been trying to do that for a year/but I’ve kind of given up. And again, your dreams are too exciting for me!
-And why do they say that you can’t feel physical pain in your dreams? I can, can you guys?
Bye!
you can’t feel physical pain in your dreams because your dreams arn’t physical so if you felt pain you must have actually hurt yourself(that’s just what I think)
Hi allichie!Hmm that’s interesting. I mean I never wake up w/ bruises… Maybe the MEMORY of physical pain? Hmm.. I should look into that…
Bye!
sometimes i wake up with an unexpected scratchs… that sounds wierd doesnt it? and you cant get any physical pain, because all dreams are in your head, not really happening, unless you can tell the future by using your dreams….? ๐
i am going to be in L.A. and am going to need the quotes for eclipse. can somebody please copy and paste them here on sunday, so when i come back, i wont have missed any info??? PLEASE?? thankyou to who does it, and ill see you guys on sunday!
ill post them here when they come up for you.
Eclipes quote of the day
รขโฌลI know you think that I have some kind of perfect, unyielding self-control, but thatรขโฌโขs not actually the case.รขโฌย รขโฌโ Edward Cullen
this is really random
i just found out that uglies is going to be a movie
i couldn’t find out anything about it on this site
if you want to find out about it go to http://www.imdb.com
OMG i just loved this book. I got it as a graduation gift…of course I wasnt supposed to read it till I got on the plane…but I had to know what Shay-la and Tally-wa were like as “Specials”. An 11hr plane ride and I couldnt put the book down. Of course the flight attendant kept looking at me weird for reading and not turning off the lights when everyone was asleep but I couldnt help it. && the thing i liked most was that I still have a friend back home who loves it as much as I do that we freaked over the ending. Haha we are so lame we refer to ourselves as “[Special:Cutter]” you should see our myspace profiles…dedicated to the trilogy and of course Scott. Thank for the ending. it was so bubbly-making :]]
i just finished uglies
i can’t read the other 2 until i go to the library
i am so confused from reading all of these comments(and tired)
-ping-
Scott!!! OMG there is SpagBol here in Japan. omg when I saw it im like “NO FREAKING WAY!!!” haha all the other shoppers were like running away seeing a psychotic fourteen-year old jumping up and down over a spaghetti bolognese bowl. Well evr since Ive been eating SpagBol…now i see why Tally-wa thought it was so repulsive after eating it so much…ugghh…but i still find it awesome SpagBol already exists. =]]
Hey is it weird for my friend and I to act like we’re Shay and Tally-wa…?
I was just wondering…it was just a hypothetical question of course…*coughcough*
haha ok. its true. Well ever since we found out there is gonna be a movie…we wanted to see if we could possibly be Tall-wa and Shay-la in the movie. She is working for JRP [john rober powers] and is tryin to see if we can get into open auditions…ehh i wanna be in that movie sooo bad. even if im not tally-wa of shay-la…grr…id like to but…i heard emily browning might play her so oh well…=[
O…M…G!!!!!!!!!!!!
my sister just went to japan
i wish i could go to japan with her
i would buy a lifetime supply of spagbol
ahhhhhhh
i’m so happy
that’s kind of pathetic
actually that’s REALLY pathetic
nanner-la i’m so with you
i love that book
now i just have to spend 1 day reading the other 2 books
AHHH I HAD A DREAM ABOUT ZANE LAST NIGHT!!!! He was truly hot.. haha!
Wait.. They havent even cast people for the movie yet?”?? Well ide have to be a littlie cause im like 4foot 9 haha and im 12 thats sad right?? Yeah anyways everyone calls me SHAY haha. soooo i would like to be shay but aint going to happen ;]
I wish I had a friend I could talk to about my favorite books
*sigh*
well, I can always talk to you guys!
*thanks god for the internet*
hmmmm… I’m 5′ 11″… Maybe I could be a special!
Hello!
Hi Rosie-la!That quote’s dangerously hot!
Hi Hannah!Random’s good! And no, that’s not pathetic. I wouldn’t trust myself in Japan because I’d go Hello Kitty CRAZY! Well actually I’ve already have!And you’ve JUST finished Uglies? Well my lips will be cautious then!
Hi Nanner-la[Special:Cutter]! What a fawesome graduation present! And I love Spagbol… when I’m starving! And that’s not wierd, Tally and Shay are fawesome characters!
And HUH? WAIT! I checked Emily Browning’s filmography on wikipedia, and all I saw for 2008 was “A Tale of Two Sisters,”?! Oh my gosh, I hope that rumor’s true!!!!!
Hi allichie! You’re what?! SURE you could be a Special! I think I’m like 5’7, and I thought I was tall(haha well in San Diego,CA I was). Hmm, that’s fintersting!
Bye!
Hannah: I know its kind of pathetic but im a lame and honestly when it comes to this book i could care less. haha
Demensiona:haha.yea. i loveed it. the SpagBol is great here..its like 384yen which is like $3.84 here omg when i saw it i practically bought it all…now im sick of eating SpagBol…ehh but thats what i get, right?
lol thank you, btw. haha its kinda sad i tend to get a little too over obsessive on books…idk why? i have issues is my answer ;]]
umm i read somewhere that they were thinking of using Emily Browning as Tally-wa. but idk…it was a rumor. but honestly my opinion would be…me..(haha yeah right, if that would ever happen) no umm…i think Kristen Stewart would be great as Tally or Shay.
Alliechie: you got friends here to talk to about this book…well ok i guess people over the internet…ok well you get the point…i hope. lol but whoa. darn it now i feel short…im 5’4″ i wish i could be as tall as you. =[[ im jealous…lol
i dont like the quote from yesterday cos if it means what i think it means, what i really dont want to happen will happen. AAAAAAAAAH!!!!!
Hello!
Hi Nanner-la[Special:Cutter]! I’m glad you enjoyed it!And haha, that’s alright, you’re supposed to stuff your face w/ Spagbol, it’s tradition, haha! And if YOU have issues, then I have them too!
I’d really like Emily Browning to be Tally, but she’s kind of short, but producers could work w/ that. And I like Danielle Panabaker, because she’s tall and she delivers line geniously! But you know, ever since I watched that movie “Speak” on Lifetime last week, I’ve been thinking that Kristen Stewart would be perfect! She has a really strong face, and I don’t think that she’d have a problem w/ cutting her hair(haha, Panic room). But I didn’t see Uglies on her 2008 filmography on wikipedia.And hmm, 5’4? That’s still pretty tall!
And yep allichie,we’re always her to talk about this book, or anything really as you can see!
Hi Rosie-la! Hmm.. that’s not going to happen again. And Stephenie Meyer said for the most part that Eclispe is pretty comical/Edward leaving again is NOT. And I TRUST Edward,he’s not going to leave Bella again.
[Did you guys see that book set of Uglies! I fate when they do that! They did that w/ the Special Edition of New Moon, I mean my mom bought me 2 copies(haha, but she doesn’t know)!
And now I have to get this box set(Well I can tell my older sister to buy it for herself/one of the many advantages of having a sister(s) over 21!). And I’m going to need to buy the new midnighter covers!(Well I lost the secret hour, so that’s okay). But still..lets just say that that Barnes and Noble card is going to come into great use in the months to come!]
Bye!^_^
Demensiona:haha ok. just checking. the SpagBol was great until after like the first 20…i was done…ehh. but i still have more so…oh..i kno i have issues :]] yea i could see danielle panabaker playing tally but i couldnt see her being a special…but idk..yea.a lot of people want to see kristen stewart playing tally. but idk i cant seem to hear what it would sound like with her saying
“Hi ping-la” or “Shaaay-la” its kinda weird when i think it that way…what would THEY sound like saying those things…hmm…pecooliar :]]
well, none of my friends that I go to SCHOOL with have read uglies, and even if they did we probably wouldn’t talk about it because they arn’t into reading as much as I am (some of my friends have read Twilight but they arn’t as obsessed as I am
and yes, I can always talk to you guys
and if you think I’M tall, you should see some of the girls who I play volleyball with (over 6′!!!!!!)
hmmm… I think I would frame a spagbol just because it’s so cool that they actually exsit!
alliechie: ohh. yea my friend and i are the only ones. people look at us like we are retarded whenever we say things are “bubbly-making” or to “stay icy” they are like wtf! but we dont care. we like to think of ourselves as “special SPECIALS”
ooh i loveed twilight. i read it here. cuz that book was the only interesting book they had. they have very limited amount of english books in the library. but whatever i wanna know what happens next. they dont have New Moon here…its so very sad-making.
wow. now i feel REALLY short. i used to be the tallest when i was in elementary but then in jr high people grew leaving me the short one. ehh…
i wish i could just bring the manufacturer back home to make SpagBol too sell all over US or where ever. SpagBol is like…”ehh food” to the japanese…and im like -0- “Well more for me, right?” haha.
whats up guys im just back from my weeks away counseling at my camp
*week
sarah:welcome back
chima-la:
eclipse quote of the day
รขโฌลI never thought Iรขโฌโขd see the day where Iรขโฌโขd be willing to take a bet against you, Alice, but it has arrived.รขโฌย รขโฌโ Bella Swan
oh god i feel really short now. is 5’4 short? i think so.
OMG!!!! i just found out something, next friday i am going to tuscany in italy for two weeks. And im gonna go to volterra for a day! anyone that has not read new moon will have no idea why i am so exited.
no 5’4″ is normal
4’8″ is short
I’M SO ENVIOUS! I want to go to Voterra
Hey Guys!
Hi Nanner-la [Special:Cutter]!Lol on Spagbol and sanity! I found this picture, where Danielle Panabaker looks somewhat like a Special but w/o the Flash Tattoos:
http://daniellepanabaker.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=random&cat=5&pos=-8000
-And no it’s not weird, I can imagine what Emily Browning would sound like if she recited Tally’s lines too.
-You haven’t read NEW MOON yet?! Oh my gosh!
And yeah, I used to be one of the tallest in elementary and middle school.
Hi Allichie!Yeah, friends usually aren’t AS obssessed! And 6′, and you guys are like 14? Wow!
-Hi Sarah!!!! Yeah, welcome back!Hope you had fun!
-Hi Rosie-la! I LOVE today’s quote! And you’re going to Volterra?! How lucky are you?! Well enjoy yourself!
Bye guys!
i know its gonna be so fexcellent!!
Rosie-la: OMG you are so lucky…make sure Edward doesnt kill himself…=/
Demensiona:omg she does look like a special…i think i could see her as Tally-wa.
uhh well then it just might be me…im weird. its been proven a fact. lol
i know im like waiting till i get back home to rush to the library and check it out…my mom is limiting my book money…=[[ she said i could either get Extras of New Moon…=/ so these are the times i love the vast amounts of books in my hometowns library
I loved the way it ended! it makes you think. AND……… She ends up with David!!1:) YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!! **happy dance happy dance**
oh yeah, and out of Blue noon and Extras, I would say go 4 Extras. ๐
i need more than one chapter of extras…*use telepathic powers to make Scott post other two chapters* haha ok jk about tht one…i wish it would work tho…lol
nanner-la: is it Blue Noon or New Moon?
(if it is New Moon buy it)
Demensiona: ur right, she does look like a special (she could look more condescending though)
i love the eclipse quote today it is so fexcellent whoooo im exhausted who knew that camp could b so tiring

alliechie: i believe it is called new moon. i want to buy it but i have been downgraded with book money…which is very sad-making. =[[ i can either choose between Extras or New Moon.
Sarah: i know thats exactly how i feel. i have to like wake up extremely early or stay up late. the only thing to do i guess is wait it out until i get back to cali. =/
Nanner-wa[Special:Cutter] yeah my kkids pulled a really big prank and we had a shaving cream fight with the other counselors it was so fun
eclipse quote of the day:
รขโฌลYouรขโฌโขve experienced the way I can manipulate the emotions around myself, Bella, but I wonder if you realize how the feelings in a room affect me. I live every day in a climate of emotion. For the first century of my life, I lived in a world of bloodthirsty vengeance. Hate was my constant companion.รขโฌย รขโฌโ Jasper Hale
Nanner-wa: so you read twilight too?

Nanner-wa[Special:Cutter] i had tons of fun thx ๐
omg tomarrow eclipse comes out, omg i cant wait, then when ive read eclipse here comes extras!!! WEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And i dont know if i would like spagetti and bologna, it sounds weird, but i really wanna try it!
im gonna die if my dad doesnt buy me eclipse, because he got really super mad when i got harry potter 7, because where we went it was almost 40$, when we could have gone to target, and got it for only 17$. but i dont think eclipse will be that much, do you guys?
wonder if im gonna get extras on time…….
I don’t think it will cost more than $25
-and
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ONE DAY!!!!!!
chima-la i was in Italy this summer and spagetti and bologanese is just spagetti and meat sauce
Hello!
Hi Sarah!Oh wow, you were a counselor?! How fun!
Hi chima-la!Hmm Stephenie Meyer on Entertainment Weekly?Cool! There was this fawesome Borders interview on Stephenie Meyer that I saw/as for Eclipse related, she just said that it was comical, 629 pages, and probably her best! And oh yeah, Bella doodles alot, that says an artist to me!
-And $40? Gee did Harry Potter hand it to you himself?Wow, that’s dedication, fawesome!
Hi Nanner[Special:Cutter]! Cool Cali!And gee, I guess we need a new strategy!^_^
Hi rosie-la!Ooh Rosanna, Gorgeous!
Hi allichie!$25? I believe $18, unless that’s plus shipping and handling. And yeah tommorrow! Yay!!!
Bye!
i live in the uk so im not sure but isnt even $17 a bit much for a book? i may be wrong but it sounds like loads.
I think I paid about $20 for New Moon
yeah u have 2 b 16 so i was happy 2 even get in ๐
Demensiona: back to the drawing board i guess x]]
Hello!
Hi Rosie-la! No you’re right, $17 is expensive! But acceptable for hardback.
Hi allichie! Yeah, probably w/ tax, it was $20 for me too. I’m not sure how much my mom paid for the Special Edition though/hmm maybe the same.
Hi Sarah!Wow,were you allowed because you’re birthday’s close?That’s fawesome!
Nanner-wa[Special:Cutter]! Haha, yeah, BACK to the drawing board!
Bye!
Demensiona: hmm…i wonder…mind control…? no. brainwashing? no. well im out of ideas…lol
yeah it was kinda weird but totally fun so i was allowed cauz my b-days this month ๐
and btw demensiona could u BELIEVE what that that that KID i was SO FANNOYED!!!!!!!!!! and P.O. grrrrrrrr4rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
i dont no what the 4 is in the grrrrr 4
omg eclipse is out 2day, and is only 11$ at target, which is way better than 40$ harry potter. ahhhhh i cant do anything online yet cause i havent gotten eclipse, and my dad was like youll get it if your room is spotless, and i share my room with my 11 year old brother, spotless is like a no way in my room, ugh! how am i gonna get it?…..
i cant get eclipse untill i come back from my holiday. so i have to wait nearly three more weeks!! how am i going to survive?!
I loved the book, i’ve loved all the books. It’s really just amazing. I kinda loved/hated how specials ended. It left so much open.. what happens with Tally and David now that Zane is gone.. i mean eventually tally will have to move on, right ? I would just really like to know what is going to happen there, call me a sucker for some romance. hah. Tally’s courage to finally decide to just be herself was a relief. She really hated being turned into what she was not. No one ever gave her the chance to be herself, and as a result she is a mixture of the things people made her become. Maybe now that she is on her own (well with David of course) things will fall into place, and she’ll finally be able to decide who she is, and wants to be.
I love books like this. I don’t think i’ll ever find another series that gets my attention like this did. It really had me on the edge of my chair waiting to see what was going to happen next. Maybe that’s why i am so disappointed it’s over. What is Extra’s going to be about!?
if you want another book that is just as good, try twilight. its amazing
Will someone please post eclipse spoilers for me?????
i finished eclipse hahahahahaha!!!!!! weeeee but i hated the ending because *spoiler* it was from another persons point of view. but other than that it was terrific!!!!! i finished it in one day. can you believe that??? i read soooo totally fast it is unbelievable! i am like oin an elcipse high right now and i am totally writing this fast. but i did the wrong thing reading it fast because now i have to wait almost a year for breaking dawn, thats its name right? the fourth book in the series?? ok well ill seeyou guys latah!
OMG i ttly with u chima-la and again i hated the ending because it was some1 eles point of view what r we goin 2 read now
gah!! i wanna read new moon&&eclipse…curse my decrease in book money. but buying extras is all worth it. xD
AAAAAH!! i am so jealous of everyone now! who’s point of view is the ending in???
are you SURE you wanna know? well, i dont know if I wanna tell a spoiler?? hmmmm…..does anybody care if i spoiled it?? because i dont wanna be banned. that = BAD!
well, i am now just rereading eclipse(well starting last night, i am sooo bored) i like to reread books because i miss things when i read a book in one day. wonder wha demensiona is doing, probably reading eclipse 5 times through then, oooh i cant wait until i read what she had to say about it… gahhhh! why did it have to end that way!?!!?!?!?!?!??!??!?!? i wanted to know about the, uh, duh duh deh dum.. ๐ ๐
EXACTLY!!! i bet demensona is reading it like 5 times and ttly agree i ttly wanted 2 no about the *u no what* ๐
i wanted to see alices *dress*, but they like shot over to ‘you know who’ and i was like “oh noooooooo!!!!!! what happened!? dont do this to me!!!!!!!!” *tear*
demensiona is probably making side notes to every chapter, then will take like 10 min. to type it all down here. demensiona is gonna get banned from here because arent we SUPPOSED to be talking about special spoilers? OOPS!
what happens next? another year gosh darnit! NOO
ehh…i reread Specials today…i got to the point where Tally freaks when Shay told her to come to Zane in the “recovery room” ehhh…Zane’s death still makes me cry. tht was really sweet tht he went to the hospital in diego to get an operation to make him a somewhat special so Tally can like him again…but its so sad that the operation itself caused his death…ehhh why did Zane have to die…Dx
agree with both chima-la and Nanner-wa [Special:Cutter] and chima-la i was doin exactly that
what was i doing that you agreed to sarah?
ehh…i kno tht people are saying David and Tally are gonna get back together. && i think thts true even if we had no sign of it but i still wish Zane was in the book…not a zombie (like tht April Fool’s cover) but i wish he were still alive in the book. =/
i wish he were alive too, well, now that tally isnt a true special, they could be together without her freaking out that he is simply shaking. i wouldnt have freaked out if he was shaking……
when u said u were goin like i wanted to see alices *dress*, but they like shot over to รขโฌหyou know whoรขโฌโข and i was like รขโฌลoh noooooooo!!!!!! what happened!? dont do this to me!!!!!!!!รขโฌย *tear* i was doin that 2 but of course no at the same time tho
Specials made me read the book in 2 days!!
no kidding i think the uglies trilogy was the best!!!
i dont get the end though wear tally sends the message to everyone about her staying in the wild with david and saying to not come to her.
weird.. ๐
Also i love the book so much i wanted to know if Extras was apart of it because my friend said so but i didnt believe her becuase in specials you said it was the last book of the trilogy.
chima-la:yea. zane was perfect the way he was…brain damage or not. they always seemed perfect together.
Lucy: im glad you liked it. i kno i managed to reread specials in 2 days as well. i kind of liked the whole letter thing. before i heard extras was coming out as i reread the letter i thought why would she say “be careful or the next time we meet it might get ugly” its a big cliffhanger. and im like how could tht be the end. well technically it is. and to answer your question the Uglies trilogy is over. extras is just like showing you what happens after the “mind-rain”. i hear Tally is gonna show up in the book tho. totally bubbly-making. xD
OH! i got sarah! ๐ i just didnt know what part of my post you agreed to! i am like rereading eclipse for the 5th time, sooo good! bye!
Hahahahaha!I’m back guys!!!!! Back to FOOD, WATER,and OXYGEN!!!!!Haha!
-Gee you guys have no faith in me!Haha! How did you know that I was taking notes chima-la?!Haha!
– ECLIPSE WAS RIDICULOUSLY HOT(if you really know what I mean, haha)! Haha, I was rereading even before I FINISHED the book, if you can believe that!!!
Yep my head’s EXPLODING w/ SPOILERS!But famazingly, my lips are pretty much SEALED!(Well at least here)!
_______________________________________________
Hi Nanner-Wa[Special:Cutter]! Haha, I’m out of LEGAL ideas of persuasion too!And I agree Extras will be worth it!
Hi Lindsay!I’m a true S-U-C-K-E-R for romance too!
Hi Lucy!
Hi Rosie-la!Hmm, I couldn’t do it, but TRUST ME! You don’t want spoilers!
_______________________________________________
-Hi Sarah!Yep that dude/chick FOTALLY FANNOYED me to the max!Haha! And what ABOUT the “U know WHAT?”!Hahahahahahahaha! Let’s just say that I enjoyed it MORE THAN “I” SHOULD’VE!Haha!^_^
Hi chima-la!$ll?! Well it was worth the $20 something at Barnes and Noble! And what’s w/ this “finishing in a day”?! Took me five days(Well with: school,the hysterical laughter, talking to myself, and the rereading of the really GOOD parts)!
-Yep the person who narrated dissapointed me a bit. I thought we were on fawesome terms!
– And I know! I wanted to see her dress too?! And what “colors” do you think they’ll go with………. You guys are just TRYING to get the spoilers out of me!^_^
Bye! Before I say something I’ll regret! Haha!
(…And COUGH..I think Blue!)
^_^
I feel like a slow reader
It took me almost a week to read it, but I think I processed every single sentence!
I don’t know about the rest of you but I LIKED the last chapter
YAY! your back! i thought you died! (JK) but yeah*wink wink* i think it will be blue too!
I did finish it in a day, BUT i did reread it 50 times lol…….
I would tell rosie-la, but spoilers are a B-I-G thing on the internet, and i DO NOT wanna get banned from this site.
before i read eclipse, i got a tray, put a muffin, a juice box, a pop-tart, and a cupcake for the long day ahead of me, my dad looked at me and was like ”what are you doing” i was imm going to read my book, see you later, and to my room i went!
allichie, you really LIKED the ending!? i wanted to know more about the you know what, then *SWITCH!* i was like, is the next book gona be from this point of view?
Hello!!!!!!!
Hi allichie!Hey Eclipse took me five days and that’s almost a week! And no, I loved the epilogue, loved the narrator’s last statment/very impacting!
Hi chima-la!Haha, I might’ve died of laughter! No but my one of my older sisters said I looked like a Zombie for those 5 days/ that’s what happens when I crash read and getting six hours of sleep!
…..haha yeah, and to the room I went too!
Haha!I think I read for eleven hours one day/hey we had to eat right?!^_^
-And no no no chima-la! Stephenie Meyer said that she had no intentions of doing that. The narration was just a nice little…change/twist!
And what’s w/ this banning chima-la? Haha!To be on the safe side, I’d say spoil through email! That’s what we’re doing on the The Last Days spoiler Zone.
Here’s my email(S):
diopside324@hotmail.com
jumb8278@yahoo.com
-If you guys are bursting w/ comments and or questions!
Bye guys!
(COUGH..yeah I think..COUGH.. we’re right on COUGH…Blue)!
^_^
how come it took you so long to read it? my brother was like MOM!!!!! she read the book fast again!!!! and i told my mother if i had to make harry potter 7 last up to 5 days, then can i read eclipse as fast as i want to? obviosly, i readit as fast as i wanted! weeeee! rereading is fun!
eclipse was so funy, my brother was like stop laughing! what are you laughing at? i was this close || to throwing twilight at and say read up!
thank heavens the next book wont be from you-know-whos point of view! i was just wondering though….
well, i dont wanna get banned because some people here havent read it yet and i dont wana get told on because i was “spreading” a spoiler, ill give it a couple of days, then ill talk but right now my lips are shut.
yep, maybe a light blue, oops *cough* *cough*
skyrider@4wbi.net

Hey!
During this summer 07′ I read the series Uglies, Pretties, and Specials.
This is by far the best series I have ever read in my entire life.
When I was done reading these three books, I felt as if a part of me was gone, it was crazy, a book has never made me feel that way before.
I was wondering if the Extras was the last book to this trilogy?
Some one please let me know thanks ๐
Hannah
Hannah- Extras is not really part of the trilogy, the main character is a girl named Aya and it takes place some time after the Pretty time (How do I know this? He posted the first chapter)
-and wow, I felt the same way with Twilight (but I know there’s more books)
I’m so happy that Tally finally got what she wanted!She wanted freedom and she got it!
I look forward to reading more of your books! ๐
Hannah: i know what you mean. i reread the trilogy this summer too and even the second time i felt the same thing. ha! funny thing is i hate reading but when i started reading the Uglies trilogy i couldnt stop. this summer i read over 5800 pages and im still reading. i sort of dont want school to start next week cuz then my reading frenzy is over. its kinda sad-making knowing i wont have time to read Extras. =[[
hey guys im back srry took so long i was rereading eclipse twice again
Hey guys!
Hi Hannah!Welcome! Yes I did experience a feeling of loss when I finished the trilogy. And I believe that allichie answered your question brilliantly!
Hi allichie! Fawesome explanation! And oh my gosh! I was just going to say that I felt the same way about Twilight too!But yep, more books is pretty reasuring!
Hi Carolyn!Welcome!I fotally agree w/ everything that you said!
Hi Nanner-la[Special:Cutter]! Hmm, yeah school sure does take up alot of reading time. (Haha, but I MADE time for Stephenie Meyer’s Eclipse! Can you say CRASH READING? Haha, I loved it!)!
Hi Sarah!Hahaha! Fotally Fawesome!
-Bye guys!
ya know why I hate this time of the year? … I can’t stop sneezing! UGHH!
AHHHH! im back!! sorry, i have been in l.a., sooo what did i miss? talk to ya latah!
hey chima-la u were in l.a. fawesome nothin really
Hey guys!
Hi allichie! It’s allergy season already? Sorry!^-^
Hi Chima-la!Just back from L.A.? Fotally fool! And you haven’t missed anything.
-Oh my gosh, I’m going frazy! Who’s casted as Tally Youngblood for the d**n movie!0_0
Hey Sarah!You’re right, nothing really.
_______________________________________________
-Hey do guys know of any actresses/or actors who’d maybe POSSIBLY be casted for the movie?I’ll look them up if I haven’t already.
-But I can almost promise you that I’ve looked up every promising applicant from the red carpet.
Bye guys!
you have?! i have nothing, who have you looked up already?? omg l.a. was totally hot, 107 almost every day! ugh! we died! good, i havent missed anything. c u latah people!
Where is everybody??
Hi chima-la!I’m here!
Hmm.. you can’t think of anyone? Me either! ^_^
You don’t WANT to know every RANDOM actress that I’ve looked up, but I’ll tell you anyway!(keep in mind that I was desperate):
-Emily Browning, Emily Van Camp, Alexis Bledel, Vivien Cardone, Miley Cyrus, Danielle Panabaker, Kay Panabaker, Mandy Moore, Kristen Stewart, Thora Birch, Anna Paquin, Dakota Fanning, Mackenzie Roseman, Leah Pipes, Kristin Kreuk,Jodelle Ferland, Raquel Castro, Emma Roberts, Charolette Sullivan, Ariel Kebbler, Liesel Matthews, Mara Wilson, Evan Rachel Wood, Mary Elizabeth Winston…
– I have no CLUE as to which actress will be Tally Youngblood, and that bugs the absolute HE** out of me!
-And 107 in LA? Gee Global Warming!
Bye! ^_^
global warming BIG TIME!! i could just picture now miley cyrus being a special cutting herself NOT! i was just joking, but on bigger matters, thats a good list! And you WERE desperate! is there more? tell tell!! Bye!
Hi Chima-la!
This Global Warming stuff is getting out of hand!
-And haha! Hey! I said I was DESPERATE!Haha, that and the fact that I was watching Hannah Montana while I was on wikipedia searching!
Haha!^_^
(Plus most of the people that I looked up, was in order to find connections to other actresses).
And nope, that’s pretty much it, I mean to add to the list: Britney Snow and Brie Larson.
-And I had a typo, that’s Mary Elizabeth WINSTEAD.
-And thanks on my list chima-la!
Bye!
^_^
Demensiona -(sorry if I spelled your name wrong) i think they were specials.
yeah, that was a good list…what happened to everybody?! nobodys here anymore, ive been checking in every day and nobodies posted? only me, demensiona, cat-kha. hello?
hi
I don’t know what to comment on…
i dont know eiher…lalalalalaaaa…..hi allichie………anybody there….hello?…..bye….
*either
Hello!
Hi chima-la!I think everyone’s in that “drained stage”.The whole “Summer’s over and I’ve already finished Eclipse” stage.
^_^
-Hmm well I guess I can start an Extras countdown( Once I take my smallville calendar out of the trash/haha)!
-Umm, I guess I’ll still look up actresses/ I’ll try to keep you guys updated on movie news.
Hmm.. The Uglie wear is fawesome (I can’t pick which one I want)!
Hi allichie!
Hi Cat-kha! You DID spell my name correctly, thankyou! I’m sorry but I’m a little slow, what about specials?
Bye!
what ‘ugly’ wear? wait, i need to go and check something
Demensiona, i think you already gave us ALOT of actresses.. lol, there’s more though..i can feel it… ill be back in a min
AH AH! i saw them! i want the team zane one and the smoke lives one! oooohhhh i want one really bad!! AHHH they’re SO totally cool!
Omagash, i need to get my friend to wear a special circumstances shirt with me… that would be cool….
m996k
Hiya everybody, i JUST got back from italy this morning. It was so amazing, i spent monday and tuesday in Volterra (!!!!!) it was so wierd. everything was exactly like it was in the book except the Palazzo die priori didnt have a fountain in it. and i didnt see any vampires ( ๐ )
I have finally ordered Eclipse off the internet (they dont sell it here yet) but it wont come fopr days. so if anyone feels like giving me any spoilers (please do) my email is Xx_-Rosie-_xX@hotmail.co.uk
And also i LOVE the t-shirts!!! i SO want one
I SOOO hated the ending(that seems to be happening with the books I am reading lately) I liked Zane but I really didn’t want him to die. Though it is true Tally-wa would stay with Zane but still! It was wierd though I didn’t like the book while I was reading it but I couldn’t put it down and I LOVE it! I think it would have been cool if the city helped the Smoke to build their own city but I still thought it was cool.
The Smoke Lives!!!!!!
I was VERY disapointed in the ending of the Specials. I never really liked Zane, and wasn’t particulary sad when he died, but still I was surprised the Zane just died….
I was happy that in the end Tally and David ended up together, even if it wasn’t exactly the way I pictured it. Overall it was good, since all of Scott Westerfeld’s books are great.
I love the t-shirts too!
i totally want a tshirt SO bad! they are SOOOOO cool, i want a smoke lives one, and a eam zane one.
i really didnt like the ending in specials, because 1.) Zane-la died :'( 2.) we dont know what happened with david and tally, they just went off into the wild, i wanna know more! sooo im just waiting for extras to come out, how many more days demensiona?
wow its been a while since i came here… concerning the movie it might be better to have an unknown actress. i mean just look at nikki blonsky in hairspray she was an unknown but she was brilliant!! cant wait 4 extras on oct 2nd is it? this will be the first time i actually buy the book the other times i just borrowed it from the library lol.
and i think that the ending of specials wasnt as bad as the ending of harry potter
I think the ending of Harry Potter happened too quickly
i think so too, the ending of specials feels like an ending, you know they are in the wild, it just ends, but in harry potters’ case, you wanna know more, and want another book, it was a good way to send a start to an eighth book, but as we all know, there wont be another book. *tear*

I finally just finished reading Specials, after such a long time waiting to read it.
(I read Pretties on holiday last year, and didn’t buy Specials until three weeks ago)
Admittedly, it was worth the wait, it was such an amazing story, 1000000x Harry Potter. And I mean it. And I really didn’t want Zane to die because he was so much cooler than David.
Anyway, I can’t wait for Extras, but I wish that there were more accompanying books to the trilogy.
David is waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy cooler than Zane!
I Can’t Wait for EXTRAS!
David is waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy cooler than Zane!
—
either way, i still cried! throughout the whole book! ๐
yes. as did i. but mostly all i did was hurl the book at my wall. that means i qualify in Scott-la’s dedication for Specials!
Privet!
Hi chima-la1 Yeah These spammers are freaking fannoying! Scott help us!
-Youรขโฌโขve just started school? Hope youรขโฌโขre enjoying it!^_^
(Oh and I checked out 2 more actresses who are NOT going to be Tally Youngblood: Camilla Belle and Amer Tamblyn).
-Hi Lizzy-Wa! Wow YOU did the math! And yep, Davidรขโฌโขs fotally fawesome!
– Hi A Person!( I really feel bad for addressing you like that). ^_^
Hi Snap!
Hi Mckenzie! I canรขโฌโขt wait either! But Iรขโฌโขll have too!Haha!

Gee, sorry about my typos!

2558205 Seconds Til EXTRAS!
(that’s a multiple of 13…just sayin)
wow, i didnt know 2558205 was a multiple of 13…eww, makes my brain work to figure that out..
Only 31 more days???? thats a month! ewwwww such a long time….*sighs*
i havent even heard of those actresses! uh, who are they, or uh, what like movie or show were they in? maybe i would remember…..
ive never heard of them either. im not too big on the whole famous-peoples names thingies. makes my brain hurt.
me too Lizzy-wa, I don’t know most of the actresses on demensiona’s list
ya know, I have to agree with snap, Zane defied what he was brought up to believe and trusted a [i]note[/i] that told him about the lesions, David knew it all along and he didn’t have to decide between society’s beliefs and his trust in Tally
True. BUT…Zane just kinda got together with her for no reason, when she was bubbly-headed. Where as DAVID actually LOVED Tally. EVEN after she said she loved Zane, kissed Zane, and called him UGLY in front of him. Not to mention how she wanted to CAPTURE him. And yet, he STILL loved her. She should have stayed with David in Pretties.
Andrew creeps me out. don’t u think? i mean like with the whole wanting to kill people thing. creepy.
Hello!
Hi Lizzy-wa!Gee Dess!And yeah, Andrew’s a LITTLE creepy, but sweet! ^_^
Hi chima-la!Yep months are icky!
Oh Camilla Belle(Rip Girls/When a Stranger Calls)
Amber Tamblyn(The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants/ The Grudge 2).
Hi allichie! I agree w/ you! And hey, I told you guys that the actresses that I looked up were random, but I’ll tell you the filmography of the ones that I think you wouldn’t know:

(6). Ariel Kebbler(Aquamarine, The Grudge 2)

Demensiona…if they EVER cast Miley Cyrus, Danielle/Kay Panabaker, or Dakota Fanning as ANYBODY in the Uglies movie, well first i would laugh my HEAD OFF at how funny they would look trying to be all adventurous and serious. but THEN…i would find Scott, and MAKE him make THEM remake the movie with decent people. and i mean i would FORCE him: If you ever want to see Justine again…or E. Lockheart or Garth Nix or some other one of his friends.
I like want, NEW people, people that we havent heard of to be in uglies. like some random people, but not TOO random, maybe like people that were in movies, but werent recognized with the main actor/actress. that would be a nice change
IM BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMIGOSH IT FEELS SOOOOO GOOD TO B BACK I HAVE MISSED U GUYS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH
Hello!
Hi Lizzy-wa! Hey I said that most of them were completely random!^_^
-And Danielle Panabaker’s okay!She can be serious(You should’ve seen her on Law and Order SVU).
-Hi chima-la!I agree, that WOULD be a nice change!

i just started my first day of school. it pretty much sucked.
school is awesome here! hi ellie! long time no see! Hi sarah! nice to see you too!
Today at school we had to tell the class something we really didn’t like. so i told how i hate my frizzy hair rite? so now all the guys in my class are calling me Frizzy Lizzy. it stinks.
Frizzy-wa
is anybody there? im gettin lonely.
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
hi Lizzy-wa!
I’m here but I’ve been on the last days spoilers page
Yeah I hate my curly hair too, it gets really frizzy when I comb it, so the delema is: frizzy hair, or tangled hair?
I usually chose tangled hair cause it unually doesn’t look that bad
I ment usually, not unually
allichie! i know. im supposed two like put gell and hairspray in it so it doesn’t get frizzy. but i hate how it makes your hair feel all hard and all. you no what i mean?
i still have two read last days. first i have two read the 15 books i have from the library rite now. i have two many books.
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
i hate my curly hair!! it is SO mtotallyl frizzy! especially when i brush it out! and if any water hits it, *POOF* ui look like i got a fro’ going on! ugh! i want permately straitened hair SO bad….
i like my hair usually. cause usually its kinda wavy(ish). but if i take a shower at night(which i always do)and then go to bed without drying it(which i always do)then in the morning its like…hermoine granger! at least thats what my mom thinks i look like.
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
Hello!
(Hi Sarah! I didn’t see your comment before! We’ve missed you too!)
-Hi Lizzy-wa! Hmm, the first day of school is usually bummer.^_^
-Namecalling?I fate assignments like that, they usually end up making school just harder than it needs to be. ^_^
Hi chima-la! I’m glad to hear that you like YOUR school!^_^
-Hi allichie!Mine’s both: Fizzy and Tangled most of the time. ^_^
Bye guys!
hey. i just got into this whole uglies and twilight sort of stuff from a friend. i just found this one day and wanted 2 say hi. so, hi.
HI! Your name is INSANE! and I think it would fit all of us
are you absessed like us with uglies and twilight?
hey insane-la!…i love that name!…stay a while and chat! WE ROCK!!!!!
hey u guys should talk with the peeps on the recenter posts! we talk more their.
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
ya, im pretty obsessed. get it? pretty! hehe.
sorry about that last. theres a reason im called insane.
now, i have a ? for u guys. in eclipse, would u pick edward or jacob????????
ponder that for a moment.
havent read it yet. im like 400 on the library waiting list thinger. SO DONT GIVE ANYTHING AWAY! although just by names…id have to go with jacob-la.
hey insane-la…you a person or a personette (guy or girl)? hhhmmmm??????
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
Edward all the way (no competition)
from what ive heard he sounds better, but i like the name Jacob.
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
im a girl. u?
and before u pick jacob, think about it. she could have a kid and stuff with him and who knows? living forever might suck.
i mean before u pick edward. oops!
guess wut? my b-day is tomarrow(which is the 16 where i live)
man, a lot of people have joined and then ditched this site, haven’t they?
welllll… just from reading the book, by a long shot….EDWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!! like you said no competition there. lol, hey how you doin insane? yeah alot of people dont even come by anymore!
OMG people are actually wondering whether edward or jacob are better?!?!?! why????? (i have been gone for so long os i was reading eclipse)
They’re not going to live forever (think about it)
and living for such a long time might not suck, they’ll have each other and to them each other is all they need, and they’ll have the rest of the family
then again, I guess it depends on your definition of forever
geeze allichie. no need 2 get all mushy!
and u guys havent answered me if ur hens or roosters. (giggle)
guess wut? its my birthday! woohoo!!!!!!
I remember when I first found this site, I was here every waking minute waiting for people to talk to me
and whenever Bella or Edward feel alone they can just look to each other and everything will turn out all right *hypothetical tear runs down check*
how many revolutions around the sun have you been human? (just thought I’d ask it in a new way)
oh and I forgot to tell you guys that I’m actually a marten from pluto where they don’t have genders
but I guess on this planet you would call me female?
well lets think about it…have you ever met a guy named lizzy. if you have…wierdness.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY INSANE-LA!!!!!! ๐ ๐
and i believe my 13th trip around the sun will be november 29. you?
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
u guys r totally confusing me!!!!!!!!!! i think ur asking how old i am, and if u r then i just turned 14 today. woohoo!
um, ya i just got on this web site and i only go on 2 times a day, once in the morn and once in the set. (morning and sun-set) sory bout all the wierd talk.
allichie, i think u need the name insane.
oh and allichie, if u don’t know if ur a boy or girl… LOOK BETWEEN UR LEGS!!!!!!!!! jk. sorry bout that.
hey any of u got a strange obsession with pirates of the caribbean or harry poter?? me and my bf do. but we HATE orlando bloom. we have actually thauoght of ways to kill him. jk.
and in harry potter… omg ron(rupert grint) and harry(daniel radcliffe) r SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hot. i mean u could fry an egg on them! ๐
im soooooooooooooooooo sorry bout that first remark. that was soooooooooooooo uncalled for. it made me giggle! hehe!
hey, u know wut books u guys have 2 read? inkheart and inkspell. now the first book i s inkheart and it starts off really slow but don’t give up on it. it rocks. inkspell is better, but u have to read inkheart for it to be good. the 3rd book that will come out sometime this year i think is going to b called inkdeath. they r also turning inheart into a movie. the only person thats in the cast that i know is brenden fraser. (if u don’t know who he is, he’s in the mummy movies and looney toones back in action.) he plays the dad.
anyway, READ THE BOOKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
c727t

Noooooo!!!! Zane Cant die!!!!!! :(!!!
It’s sooo unfair!!! When I read that Zane was dead and not coming back,i cried,wanted to throw ‘Specials’ out a window,and I wanted to kill Scott Westerfeld.No offense,but i was really ticked off!I thought Zane was awesome,and you had to kill him?! Tally loved Zane! She’s technically the one who killed him,but still!!!!! How could you kill him…? Im still in tears and still kinda want to burn you,but dont call the cops,im just venting…Poor Zane…:(
Ohla, ma people! ive been off rereading eclipse like over and over again, and like school has taken up a big chunk of my day, 6 hours worth!
And well, if your from pluto and are a martion, allichie, imma mermaid from atlantas! you know where atlantis is? Atlantic ocean ATLANTas! get it, i do, cause imma mermaid, oh well, yeah ive been around the sun 13 times can you believe that?
Zane is speacial even if he isnt realy speacial (in my opinion) ugglie David and speacial Tally make a good couple
this is my first enterie so sorry if im not doing it right
i spellt uglie wrong
sami-la…its ugly. not uglie.
yay! im not the youngest. i think. on the other categories im like at least a year younger than everybody els.

(P.S. Edward Cullen all the way! But Jake’s fotally hot too!)^_^
Oh my gosh hi Tally!!!!! Gee I envy you! ^_^
-Okay I’m out of here before it’s spoilers overload!
Bye! ^_^
hehe…fotally…GAHH!! IM SOO TEMPTED TO LOOK AT THE SPOILERS PAGE!! help meeee!!!
the ending was completely satisfying.
i love how your books are aiming towards a certain
ending and then they completely change in a matter
of seconds you cant let go of the book, because
the end you thought was gonna happen completely
changed.
i love your books very much
you are my favorite author.
Wow I havnt been here in a while! Hey Demensiona!
Idk where the edward vs jake came from but yeah Edward all the way! I think u to;d me to read twilight..i did.. finally. and it was AWESOME! cant wait till breaking dawn or midnight sun or the other 2 books in whoever PoV there supposed to be in.
okay back to extras
OMG!!!! i hated the way it ended!!!! and i can’t believe scott killed zane….. its just not rite, i liked him way better than zane, y couldnt have david died instead or shay???? i cried so much after i found out he died it was so not kool, and the ending was totally bogus, but i guess i just think that because i think it would be better if zane was there with tally and david and that she wasnt disgusted by him when he shaked
i got my copy!!!! woohoo!!!!!! i wont b on 4 a while cause ill b readin it. im so special. (get it? hehe. ๐ )
and by the way, i would totally choose jacob just cause i dont want 2 live 4ever. that would suck. (get it again?)
Hello!!! ^_^
-Haha, gee I’d help you Carls, but I actually need help myself! o_0
-Hi Tracy! Yep Scott’s fotally fawesome!

And lucky YOU on Extras!!!! ^_^
-Hi Danielle!
-Hi insane!Enjoy!!!! ^_^
-And I don’t want to live forever either, but for Edward’s sake, I’d sure the he** would! Haha! ^_^
– But like I’ve said, you’ve got to love Jake! ^_^
-Bye guys!
^_^
kk havent been on 4 awhile again sorry but i was rereading the triology again nad again in time 4 extras which is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! u guys HAVE TO READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sarah out but will be bak!!!!!!! ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
what the crap???!!!
So my friend read the book after I did and told me that she was on “Zane’s Team”
I, on the otherhand am on ” David’s Team”
— Not that I didn’t like Zane —
I fell in love with the character like everyone else.
BUT…. I think that David and Tally go together and could really help eachother out.
Hailee ( my friend ) thinks that Zane was better for Tally, and the only reason that Tally and David kind of hooked up at the end, was because they were both on rebound and needed somebody. I DISSAGREE SO much. I just thought that I had to discuss it with someone else becasue I think that she pictures David like a hick person/ hillbilly because David didn’t get the operation. And of COURSE Zane is VERY GOOD LOOKING— I can amagin.
I keep telling her that she OBVIOUSLY didn’t learn her lesson that you aren’t supposed to judge people by the way they look.
I don’t know.
But getting ready to read Extras and I am EXCITED !!!
Its all Shay’s fault from the beginning.
Shay was a spoiled brat from her origin. She didn’t run away cause she’s stupid, she guilt tripped Tally to running away from her staying and just being normal and pretty (which i understand had to happen or there wouldn’t be a plot), but then blaming Tally for David, then getting mad, it just goes on and on. STUPID BRAT. SHAY SHAY SHAY. Oh and it’s Shay’s fault Zane dies too. SHAY!!!
ahh omg i cant wait to read extras (: i just finished specials, right on time for extras to come outt. im going to get it this weekend!
oh i know. i don’t like shay either.
Shay sucks.
I’m on team david!1!1!
wow finished specials then yesterday and into today read extras and let me tell you OH MY GOD… OH MY GOD…OH MY GOD… I love them love them. oh sorry i repeat myself was really really happy. i wanted more after i read them so i picked up uglies and now i am reading all of them all over again. But extras you must read it like now. I hate people who read and tell so read it cause thats all you are getting out of me. READ IT READ IT READ IT READ IT READ IT READ IT
OK GUESS YOU GET THE IDEA….Scott Westerfeld I love your books I own ever single one. keep on writing once again loved the books.
people its NOT shays falut any of it happened its tallys fault dont kill me i LOVE tally shes great but if she didnt want 2 c paris the night she met shay she wouldve never met shay and wouldve turned pretty like every 1 else so technically its not shays fault its tally-wa’s fault think about it she meets shay AFTER she c’s paris again so its not shays fault
so yeah glad i made that point
meh….i guess so….
I loved this book i already re read all of them.
the ending was okay i really think you should make one that tells how Tally and David are going.
Unless it says it on extras i haven’t read that one so ya.
Loved the books though
ah well is any 1 else bored???
It’s Allie, of the Comment 681 fame.
I just realized [thanks to Sarah] that if it weren’t for Peris, NOTHING would have happened. Tally would have become pretty. The mind rain would have never happened. Zane would be alive. Uglies could have happened, but the story would have been totally different.
Or maybe, somebody else would have done it all. Dr. Cable did say that others had left notes with directions to the smoke. I wonder, though. Would they go through the same stuff? Betray the Smoke? Become special? Or just pretty? Cause the mind rain? Get Zane killed? End the Prettytime?
It’s dizzy-making.
ITS ALL TALLY’S FAULT! Shay had NOTHING to do with it!
if Tally wouldnt have seen Peris, she wouldnt have met Shay and nothing would have happened.
if she had just stayed ugly instead of going to betray the SMOKE, nothing would have happened.
if she had just told David about the necklace instead of burning it, nothing would have happened.
if she would have just taken both pills instead of being a wimp, nothing would have happened.
if she would have just stayed with DAVID instead of going with crippled Zane, nothing would have happened.
if she would have just not kissed Zane, nothing would have happened.
SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE???!?!!!!!!?!?!??!
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
Finished EXTRAS! YEAH. It was a great book. about the whole shay thing. I never used to think that she was a great character, but my opinion of her kind of changed in Extras. The whole japan thing was awesome. (But…..cant say anything about the book you guys have 2 read it.)
GGAAAHH!! I DON’T CARE WHO DID IT!!! …. ok im fine now.
that is totally a great idea!!! someone should start a movie aobut this whole trilogy….
id’s be sooooooooo cool, and it would sell more than the hary potter movies. i know i’d be the first one to buy it.
by the way,,, extras was AWSOME!!!! i totally liked the ending.
Omg… I just finished reading it. It was too sad when i read the Zane part that I bursted into tears. I sortof felt sorry for her cuz she couldn’t get past the fact that Zane still loved her and she FREAKIN pushed him away. Overall thougth I really loved the book and can’t wait to buy Extras.
*Note to the Author: Great Job! with this one Scott, Even though it made me cry.
I JUST GOT EXTRAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM ON PAGE 77 AS OF NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-Lizzy-wa OUT! 8)
oh yeah. im cool.
-Lizzy-wa OUT! 8)

SCOTT U HAVE 2 MAKE A FIFTH BOOK PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I BEGGING HERE
ive made my point ๐ ๐
CANT WAIT TILL I GET EXTRAS!!( just oredered it)…but really what a random name for the book..i don’t really like it…and this is for sarah…they are making a 5th one…=)
dont know what its called tho.
it should be called RUSTIES! and it could be a prequil!
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
That would be fawsome!!!
in the middle of reading pretties, so I read none of this spoiling blog.
BUT……….
WHAT BOUT EXTRAS?????
it says nothing about it on this sight….
HELLO, its out,
and in a way it is the 4th of a 3 book trilogy.
IT ISN’t OVER yet people.
OKAY,,,, so it isn’t Tally Youngblood no more.
BUT IT’s the same concept
SO TALK ABOUT IT,,,
(gotta go read pretties)
wait. there’s going to be a 5th book?
really?
where did you get that info from?
what happens in extras?!?!?!?!?! its not out here yet!
extras is a perfect name for the book, Ash-la. u’ll c when u get it and read it.
ZANE!!!!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!! you cant do this to me!!!!!!! I love him. *cries* loved the trilogy, hated the ending. sorry guys, but i’m a happy ending person, and the ending to specials just sucks. david is cool, but ZANE!!!! He’s just… AMAZING! i cried forever. and lost sleep over it to. i dont know if i’ll be able to forgive you, mr. westerfeld. sorry, but it’s true. i truly might hate you forever.
Whoah!! Theres a 5th book coming out? are you absolutely sure, cause if i think there is and then there isnt that is going to be sad-making. i havent heard anything, where did u find it out? And did someone say there is an EXTRAS blog cause if there is how do i get on it cause i cant find it?
Okay, so I absolutley loved Specials, and I have now read extras. It was amazing as well-but will there be a 5th book? I mean pleaseeeeeee ๐ I hope so. I loved this series & I really hope he dosnt end now.
Idk. I heard from someone that there will be a 5th book. Trying to find out if its true. But i hope that there is one.
it woulds be awesome possum if there was a 5th book…what would it be named?
I think there might be. But i heard that he’s going to finish another book (don’t remember the name. Sorry!)then (might) continue with either the Uglies or Midnighters series. But i hope he will choose the Uglies Series. :]
Scott is starting a new trilogy called Leviathan. Its going to be set in an alternate 1914. Its a trilogy though so it will probably be a while before he starts making another book.
yeah that was it! Leviathan.
Too bad. :[
kk again THATS SO FAWESOME ASH-LA R U FREAKIN KIDDING ME!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how do u no??????????
๐ ๐
I personally like David more than I will ever like Zane, but I won’t deny that Zane was strong enough to take those pills without knowing anything about what was going to happen to him. I admire him fro his bravery.
I think Tally is amazing, though sometimes I wanted to kill her, I also felt such a connection with her sometimes. I admire her determination, and how she fought her way out of the mind-rain.
I agree with every last word.
ttly true but i loved them both espcially zane i just didnt feel it with david but i love them both
I loved all of ur four books they were asome the onley part i didn’t like was the end of the extras i dnk there should be more of a closing it felt like there was going to be another book to the series when I was finished reading so im here to incoarage u to write another book for the uglies series.
P>S i love ur books so much im gona start reading peeps now!!!
P
I totally am in love with David. I felt bad for Zane, but i am in love with David.
hey guys, i am in journalism at school and am writing an article for extras. i want to know what u guys thaght of it and if u liked bla bla bla. u know. so tell me! remember, not the series, just extras.
Well,
I thought it was good. The first half of the book was ok because it was just explaining the what was happening after the “pretty-time”. But the second half was the best cause of all the things they did. Like meeting the old characters and going down to Singapore.
SO … yeah. I hoped it helped. ๐
its wierd how he changes Tally’s personality ya no? like in the first three, Tally is a little teen who doesnt no where shes going. just like Aya. then when she meets Tally in EXTRAS, Tally’s all cool and in control and praise the mighty Youngblood! its wierd for me.
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
yeah you’re right. i wished that he wrote a book about the 3 years between the Specials and Extras book.
I think that would cool. ๐
dont want to say to much about the book cause it will spoil it, go on to the Extra site, you would probably get better feed back.
But….. I really enjoyed the change of scenery. Moving from America to Japan. Scott really showed diversity. They had similar lingo, yet completely different at the same time. (Aya-chan, versus Tally-wa.)
I also loved how Scott went from one extreme to the other.(plastic surgery to popularity). first the government is overthrown because of plastic surgery. Then they so oh well i can still make people feel bad about themselves by just making a government run by popularity. And even though our government is not run by using plastic surgery or popularity, our society is run by it. The book is just really fascinating how it changed country’s and was really the start of a new era, yet it was so similar to the Uglies, and to the way we run our life now.
Over all its “Happy-making”!
And shows how completely “Brain-missing” these ideas are.
Davids Team!!!
i wish another book would come out! there wouldnt be so much conflict after reading extras though (wanna know what i mean? read the extras spoiler page. didnt read extras? read it! :))
i
yes. fifth UGLIES book! or…CHASING MIDNIGHT WEREWOLVES! the fourth Midnighters book.
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
5th uglies book? when?
there wasn’t that much conflict over extras. not nearly as much as over BLUE NOON! WRITE A FOURTH MIDNIGHTERS BOOK!
and that was a theoretical fifth uglies book they mentioned. no sign of a real fifth one yet. because it has to come out after the FOURTH MIDNIGHTERS BOOK!
wow, there are so many comments on this thread. is 1666 bad luck? not as bad as normal 666 i guess. too bad, g-volleyballplayer.
wowoww. i posted my thought on this may 22, 2006. i cant believe people still havent read the book yet, it was amazing. but i am STILL upset that zane died, it is all tally’s fault
๐ … anyway, im reading extras right noww. i am so glad scott westerfeld made another one ๐
Extras… is that a start to a new series? or is it just one book? is it added to another series?
Extras is not a start to another series. it is just an “add-on” to the Uglies series.
I love these books! This one and Pretties are my absolute favorites; lot’s of action.. Can’t have a good book witout action, that’s what I say.
No! Not Zane! But oh well, tyheres still David. I could never decide which one I liked most…
I was so excited when I bought Extras! ‘Twas very happy-making. I like the new frases too (eye-kicking — I’m gonna start saying that!) Though I must admit, I was a little hesitant to read it because it wasn’t about Tally, but it was amaaaazing.
I especially like how it’s the fourth book of the series. Wow, this series is good!

how could he be gone??
GOSH he was my favorite other than tally of course, but when he died i cried it was soo sad. he better be coming back in the next book. don’t get me wrong through i luv david i just luv zane more!!!!!
I am sad because i liked david 2 and tally was kinda mean 2 him ๐
Oh God I feel so late.
But I had to wait for paperback. Hardback was too expensive!
So anyway I totally loved it.
It was really descriptive–a lot more than the other books. And I never cry at books but I did at this one! POOR ZANE! I wasnt suprised by the fact that they were the only ones with specials. Dr. Cable always seemed kinda psycotic if you ask me. Like Dr. Frankenstein or something. I kinda didnt get the ending at first cuz I stayed up practically all night reading and that’s tough on someone who just turned 13!
Diego . . . is that supposed to be like San Diego? just a thought.
I think Tally should have thought more on her relationship with Shay. What were they anyway? They seemed kinda les when they got around eachother. Anyway I’m kinda glad Zane died. Not that i didnt love his character when he was alive, Tally just really needed a push. Loved the ending.
This one was totally my favorite. Seriously. I can’t wait for specials cuz it’s in like Asia or somewhere and they’ve always had better technology and the better the technology the better the books.
Wow I typed a lot.
Oh and by the way where can you read that alternate ending thingy?
yeah. i heard about that alternate ending thingy, but i never saw it. suspicions…
-Lizzy-wa OUT! ๐
hey havnt been on here 4 a bit. hows everyone??? and who the hell is that one dude? go to extras spoilers when u guys read it.
that alternate ending is at this website:

I’ve read all four books now.
Uglies is still by far the best because Tally’s mind was just free and wild and not controlled.
At the end of Pretties, I literally threw the book across the room. I wanted her to stay with David. Ger.
I was HAPPY that Zane died in Specials. I was doing my little happy dance. I liked David way better.
Extras was pretty cool. I was disappointed that it wasn’t in Tally’s POV though, but I was content that she was in it. And what I wasn’t happy about was that her and David hadn’t hooked back up yet! Seriously. 3 years. That makes her 19. Just about.
I swear if you don’t make another I’ll go Special on everyone.
=]

c202t
c106t
ok even tho i read specials like abajillion years ago i ahve finally decided to post on this. I think this book was the best book i have ever/will read (ive evne read extras and specias is still my fav)
The end of the book shows how thigns can get out of control. it just shows we may never be content with wat we have, we always have to change it. This book might seem like an ezzagertion but you never kno wat could happen in the future. and for the acutally story aspect. i think the ending shows how underneath all that surgery Tally is still the same person. She will always be tally youngblood no matter what. She may still be technically a special but she is stillt he Tally youngblood who looks out for her friends and wishes evrything could just be better, and wants to fix that. This book has imspired me in soo many ways!
i think of EVERYTHING in different way now…and this is in a very good way
BTW the Song Mad World by Michael Andrews is absolutly PERFECT for like…if they made a movie up to specials they end were i can see tally and david flying away as tally is saying her little speech there is one line in particular in the song that is 100% uglies “children waiting for the day they’ll feel good happy birth day happy birthday” like i always thouhgt this song was like uglies but then wen i noticed that i started screaming
Love Rosie-wa(Scotts biggest fan EVER!)
I cried and threw my book across the room when I found out Zane died!

who is Zane again? Tally’s boyfriend in Pretties.
how does he die? the pill that he took slowly ate away at his brain. So he dies because all his motor skills are gone ex. breathing
where does Tally end up in the end?
she goes off into the wild to “save the world”
what happens to the world? The new system around the world is crumbling.
what happens to shay and david? Shay is still in Diego with the other Cutters.
are all the specials (including Dr. Cable) killed? nope. they just despecilized them all including Dr. Cable.
does tally go back to being ugly? no. she stays a Special.
Hope this helps make reading Extra’s easier. :]
Ok the Rusty Ruins are the ruins of Seattle.
And the website for the alternate ending is …

I loved Zane, not that I didn’t like David tho but I thought Zane was awesome since he wanted to fight off the lesions himself…and David was raised out in the wild unlike Zane…Anyways, i loved all of ur books!
ok i just finished reading pretties and i started reading sppacials and i HAVE QUESTIONS?
1 why id tally a specail? i mean before she was totally against every thingthey did and now she is one!?
2. Why is tally in the cutters club and ugghhh!
i hate how her charector changed i liked her alot more in the first book UGLIES !
srry if i offended anyone well
STAY BUBBLY!! LOL
UHH 1 more question wat does bubbly mean? i like seroiulsy 4got wat it means!!
At the end of Pretties, Shay wants Tally to turn into a Special and so that’s why she’s a special.
And Tally’s in the Cutters because Shay is in it and so are some of the Crims.
Bubbly is like being yourself with the lesions in your brain. something like that.
hehe. not been on here in a while.
HEY NEW PEEPS! hehe. i love when new kids get on. then they ask bunches of questions. i feel lonely. nobody i no is on here except that stupid spammer dude. which by the way is clogging up the page. *sigh*.
hey Insane-la!
hey Shelby-wa! i agree with everything you said!
hey other Lizzy-wa! your name rocks by the way.
Mina-wa…Tally is SPECIAL cause Dr.Cable forces her to become SPECIAL. its not her fault. she becomes a Cutter because the brain surge forces her to be a Cutter. and personally i think she is more interesting in SPECIALS. and bubbly is when your heart is pounding and you feel like you can run to China. THATS what bubbly is. answer your questions?
-Lizzy-wa OUT!
DAMN!
I haven’t chatted here in like months
i finished almost all the books and
omg eragon harrypotter spiderwick chronicles and a series of unfortunate events are by so far my fave movie due to the magic (:
I want scotts books to become MOVIES
woah my eyesite is like blurry for no reason.
Well im back and been busy so i might not be on much
Yah Jenn pretty much answered your questions but for fun. Since id like to refresh my memory on the series ima answer them too (:
1.Shay did want Tally to become a special and tally thought it over shay kind of forced her too. which sucks. And she really wanted Zane to become a special to even though he couldn’t and died in the process of the surgery which made me cry.
2.Tally went into the cutters club first because shay wanted her to and yah like jenn said most of the crims were in it except her and zane at first, even though mostly hoverboarding helped her feel real and u know? it helped her feel real like when she was an ugly.
3. You know bubbly and bogus. OH YAH bubbly is either when u feel all fun and drunk when ur a prettie or when you feel REAL im pretty sure its like when tally hoverboards she feels like when she was a ugly and the crims or since their the only ppl who do it they call it bubbly
Oh and Btw Lol on the spammer dude (:
i haven’t posted anything on here since may i was just looking back through all the posts
hehe
aghh
I just noticed someone saying there was a movie comming out? i was like hoping there would be a movie comming out but was never too sure. uhhh can anyone answer THAT question? x]

hi :)The cover is kinda scary in specials. I was disappointed with Tally’s hair ๐ But I WISH Dr.Cable coulda died. When Tally was kinda lost, and someone* said, and i quote, “Put him down, Tally-wa.”, I freaked out, and I was wondering, Oh my gosh, is that Shay? But no, it had to be Fausto. Ah well. I feel really sad cuz Zane died. Zane was so SPECIAL!! He coulda been a special if he hadn’t swallowed that pill. I blame Maddy for this >:( Cuz ya know, she coulda give Tally a warning,”Take both pills at one time, Tally.” You know? – Jo-la!
oh yeah, and there probably isn’t a movie. I checked all over the internet, and couldn’t find anything. Sorry Ellie. ๐
i love you Zane, why are you dead?
i reread uglies today because i was sick.
isn’t it on IMBD or something?
I luv u Zane…..ur way better than David…come back to life!!!!!(lol, i wished that happened, that Zane never did die)
Lizzy-wa
U had to tell me that Dumbledore dies! I didn’t get to that part yet…
No, but seriously Zane shouldn’t have died… and does anyone know where I can find the alternate ending for Specials? its not on the website that it has in the book…
well it wasn’t an alternate ending, was it? just sort of mentioning in the author commentary that originally David didn’t come with her into the wild, she went alone.
I LOVE YOU, ZANE. WHY’D YOU DIE?
It was so saad, visualizing poor pretty Zane-la, alive but dead, laying there like a pretty sack of potatoes. POOR TALLY-WA! :'(
OH you reread it too? I didn’t have anything else to read today, so i decided to read the whoole trilogy over! I relived the story. I still don’t get it- Where’d Peris go?
good question Jo-la..

I LOVED the book Scott! And I want to know if there is gonna b a movie? I foud stuff on the conputer that says there may be a movie.
Or should I say Books
coolie!! I’m getting extras for my birthday, along with a few other books… How did Zane-la die? I mean, didn’t Special Circumstances, like, stop the nanos from eating Zane-la’s brain? I mean, it was rewiring itself! That’s what i don’t really get because i’m a slow little jo-la. Tally rewired her brain, so how did Dr.C think that she was the only real Special left? Thank you in advanncee!!
-Joanie-wa aka Jo-la!
This name sounds better
well zane has shakes and stuff and then he runs away to the new smoke and they people ther in diego (the new smoke) try to fix him and take away his moter skills and so at the hospital he’s on life support and the docters say they “need the bed” so they take him off and he dies. sad isen’t it? ๐
dr c probably did not think that Tally-wa was strong enough to fight the lesion and ur welcome
did u read it or r u trien to figure out what happens?

what’s with the eighty million wierd spam posts of random numbers and letters?
i think the problem with Zane was that he felt bad that Specialized Tally couldn’t handle his ‘random’ shakes and twitches, so he was pressuring the doctors to operate more and cut further, and he ended up brain dead. i haven’t read it in a while, so i might be wrong, but wasn’t he already dead when Tally showed up?
RIP ZANE! (unless you wanna come back as a zombie, which, you know, would be pretty cool)

Will you stop spamming ma###zda?? Hi lizzy-wa, dimensiona, Serafina-Zane, Ellie, Jenn, etc. Good news. Read Extras all last night. I finally fell asleep when i finished it. It was so good, and i couldn’t put it down, gosh!I think i’m gonna go to the extras spoiler zoney now, but i’ll come back later. Oh yeah, there is a movie about Uglies/Pretties coming out. The trailer is on youtube if ya wanna watch it.
For now, PEACEy! -Jo-la
really??!?!?!?! omg! wat is it? like is it called UGLIES or something????????
LIZZY-WA
TEAM ZANE
ok i just looked at the tralier thing on youtube and it was like really freaky…im not sure if i was looking at the right one but i think it was and it was creepy………….but IF the movie does come out..i will DEFINITELY go watch it no matter how creepy it is…..
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
was it a fan-made trailer or a real trailer? for like the real movie or a documentry or something?
i reeeeeaaaally don’t want them to butcher the books. please don’t let them.
*getting yelled at for still being up*
guess i can’t search it out on YouTube.
hmmm…spamming seems to have stopped. temporarily, at least.

no, apparently not Serafina Zane…i guess the spamming DIDN’T stop..they r soooo annoying!
i sure hope thats not how the real movie is suppose to be cuz i dont like it like that..wen i was reading it, i didnt picture it as SCARY/FREAKY
so i hope that the real movie is different than the trailer on youtube
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
ugh. and of course because i said that, it’s back.
lol..its ok..they will go away..sometime…i hope
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
why doesnt anyone talk on this page anymore?!?!?!?
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
probably cuz scrolling through spamming is annoying.
i only go on spoiler threads when i’m really bored.
such as now. when i’m *not* doing social studies homework.
lol, yea thats true… but i think they stopped, at least for now they did
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
It’s been atleast a year since me and my friend read specials, and she still denys that Zane’s all the way dead. Sure, it darn sad, but death is final. Well, in most books, that is. Including this one. I feel kind of bad for her, in denial and all. But maybe I’s be that way too if I wasn’t so in to David
I found out about Zane’s impending death right after I finished Pretties, so I thought it wouldn’t affect me much. One, because I had already established myself in Camp David. Two, I couldn’t be blind sided with the news. So I was not expecting to completely fall for him for the very first time right before he flippin’ dies! Ugh! Okay, I’m still in Camp David but I vacationed to Camp Zane and am left sort of depressed. I am glad that Tally got to put her foot down for once and stay the way she chose.
i miss zane. but he’s totally dead. i mean, he doesn’t come back in Extras, they see his corpse, and i have heard/read scott say it both in person and on this blog.
i know Serafina Zane and Savvy-la loves David that Zane is dead but couldnt Scott somehow “bring” Zane back into the story like in the 5th book(if there is one)? i mean somehow he DID survive and then the doctors in DIEGO didnt take the bed away and he lived and then he was like either captured or hiding and then comes back?!?!?!?! cuz i flove Zane(like most of you already kno by now) UGH! i still cant take that Zane is dead…i liked him since they mentioned his name in PRETTIES. so i agree with Savvy-la loves David’s friend, maybe cuz im a Zane person…i still love you Zane, why did you die?
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
I guess it is POSSILBE that he could be alive… except for the fact that Scott has already established multiple times that Zane is gone. Dead. As in, not coming back. So, I might be able to see a bit of a possibility if it weren’t for the fact that the writer isn’t going to bring him back. Which, since he is a character after all, means he’s definately not going to come back.
Unless someone wants to write a hard core fan fic that brings him back??? Probably already many out there, but I haven’t seen them.
c778t
I don’t think so.. They took off the breathing thing, remember?! without oxygen, you die. I know one thing for sure: Zane-la is dead. Oh, and Tally doesn’t live in Diego ๐ Yay! But oh for Zane-la. ๐ May he live in Tally’s heart for ever and ever and ever and ever. And Ever. And oh. wow, i’m foolish. Anyhoo. Did anyone read extras yet?
I read Extras! loved it, and I loved how David was in it :] It bummed me out how little he was in Pretties and Specials. But yeah, Zane is definately gone gone. :[
๐ i still dont like the idea of Zane being gone. i mean i love David and all but i REALLY loved Zane…i mean if I made an ending, it would be like Zane somehow didnt “die” so they didnt pull the oxygen thing out and then he lived and so on and so on like wat ive said before. like how hes either captured or he is hiding something like that. watvr.but yea as u can tell im am TOTALLY a Zane fan!
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
btw, i’ve already read EXTRAS. i missed the POV from Tally:(
i mean, i wish zane hadn’t died as much as anyone, but, ummm, he died.
and by Extras, it’s been almost three years. i don’t think he’s coming back, sadly.
Oh, I miss Tally’s POV too! SOOO MUCH! I loved her. I and I’ve missed it since she turned Pretty, because for obvious reasons that’s not really HER point of view, just the point of view that happens to be in her brain. But I miss Tally! I MISS THE SMOKE! I miss Special Circumstances! I miss the Rusty Ruins! Sometimes, I even miss Peris! And of course I miss Zane!! I just miss all of the old sutff, it was so AMAZING!!
Ewwwww. Nostalgia XP
I KNOW! i wish everything would be like normal in EXTRAS! but no, he just HAD to change it(but im still thankful that he made another book):) i kno that Zane is dead *cries cries cries* but why?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!*cries more*
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
I just wish that there would be another one that’s all about our Tally again! Or, even being about Shay would do for me, I just want the old main characters to stay the main characters! I mean, Aya rocked and all, but she’s not nearly Tally aweosme. Oh, I’m sad now :[
I’m going to go read UGLIES again!!!!!!
lol, i totaly agree with u…im like halfway through the 2nd MIDNIGHTERS right now…
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
Savvy-la loves David:
“Sometimes, I even miss Peris!”
LOL I don’t think I’m there yet, but I need a few more weeks to go brain missing from Uglies withdrawl. I’m giving the boxed set to all my friends for Christmas because it’s so happy making!
kdenae: “Iรขโฌโขm giving the boxed set to all my friends for Christmas because itรขโฌโขs so happy making!”
That is sooo awesome! I wish I had a friend amazing enough to give be a boxed set for Uglies! That would be the best present ever. I hope your friends anjoy it! (cratch that, I KNOW they will enjoy it!)
eh, i don’t really miss Tally that much. (Zane maybe, because of his sadly deceased hotness)
this trilogy didn’t give me that big empty MORE! feeling that Midnighters did.
lol, i cant finish MIDNIGHTERS cuz i cant spend the whole night staying up to read it AND i have to do freakin hw… i get so much! well, i need to go finish i rite now…ttyl
Lizzy-wa
TEAM ZANE
and i DEFINITELY miss Zane!
that is evil. midnighters for the people! go reads it!
i love you zane!
i know! and i stil dont have it yet, it still hasn’t come yet!!!!!!!!!!!

TEAM ZANE
I just got extras!!! i’m new to this ps.
okay so sofar extras is AMAZING
but where i am tally’s not in it yet.
i forget what happened to shay at the end of specials though, because i read it a while ago. doesnt she go back to the city and get all despecialized? or does she stay at the new smoke? AHH CANT REMEMBERR! help me please?
Why did Zane have to die…why! Couldn’t Tally and Zane been together and continued to change the world while they stayed friends with David and helped round up people to stop the new cities expanding into the wild.
Or atleast left the part with Zane dyeing a mystery. Something like Tally couldn’t look at him, so she left thinking he was dead. So that would have atleast left hope in the Zane lovers. And then maybe in another book much later on you found out Dr.Cable was able to help Zane but Tally was in the wilderness so she didn’t know. And her and David had gotten really close, which would lead to more books, or she would continue to miss Zane and what not, but thinking he was dead, she would try to get over him, but realize a peice was always missing from her. And Zane was out to find her???
But I just wished Zane’s death would have been revealed in a later book.
i totally agree with u Nicole cuz im definitely a Zane lover!
UGLYLOVERR, i think tally never did got despecialized and she was hiding in the woods with David. remember she sent that last ping to Shay, Maddie, and i think Fausto…
Lizzy-wa

um…does anybody agree with me when i say that we need a new SPECIALS thread. cuz i mean seriously. were being overrun by spammers. and my computer takes forever to load 2265 comments. my computer crashed yesterday cuz i went on here. then i had a lunch detention for not having my homework that i failed to print out because of it.

nanos are fuuuuuuunnnn….
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved this entire trilogy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was very happy-making!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was sooo sad about zane!!! And I have to say that I liked him SOOOOOOOO much better than David. Random but I wish Tally would have paid more attantion to Shay!!!!! SHay is like my FAVORITE!!! But Tally is more interesting and I didn’t like the ending AT ALL but that is only because it leaves you hanging PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE write more!!! I did however like how Tally ran off into the wild. And if you do write more PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make Tally and Shay best friends again I miss those two best buds!!!!
It was totally bubbly and icy great job Scott!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK just finished reading Extras too!!! I really loved it but Aya is a total idiot. She is WAY too conserened about being popular!!! And I cant believe that originally Aya was willing to betray the Sly Girls just to be popular, and also Shay and Tallly weren’t best friends. totally unhappy making!! But I was pleased with the way things turned out and such! It was also great to see Tally from someone else’s view. I liked the way that she did call Shay up again. That was greatI hope that through all their differences they can make up!!! BTW i wish Tally was in the book more!!!!!
_Specials, Pretties, and Uglies_
*Specials are love, if they’re cured.
*Uglies are teh bom.
*Pretties… Who cares again?
_Zane-la_
*Zane died.
*Name one person who DIDN’T cry when Zane died?
*Agh!! This line kills me!!:
“His head and arms were still connected, the wild chorus of beeping replaced by a steady beat.
But Tally could see that he was dead.”
*Zane was hawt. xD
_David_
*David’s HOTTER.
*David is THE SH.IT.
*David can be hot, even when he’s ugly.
*David and Tally should be together again.
*They’re not boyfriend and girlfriend now, they’re just the new specials.
*I LOVE THIS : Page 368
(Tally:”Oh right! I forgot to mention, Maddy sent me a message for you.”
David:”She sent you a message for me?”
Tally:”Yeah. ‘I love you . . .'” Tally Swallowed again. “She said to say that. )
_Shay-la_
*It’s funny when Shay swears. xD
_Tally-wa_
*DA BOM
*I wish she was the main character for Extras.
hey, Aya-la is cool too.
Zane is obvious much better, because he IS.
Shay is hilarious. especially with nanos.
David is okay. David is David.
i agree w/ serafina on this one. zane is obviously much better. cause zane is awesome.shay is halarious ALL the time basically. i don’t like david idk why david IS just david and its the davidness i don’t like. and btw WHY DID U TYPE THAT DREADED LINE I READ IT ONCE WHY DO I HAVE TO READ IT AGAIN!!!!!!!! but yeah it kills me too. peoples cheak out my blog today i reviewed blue noon. but all stephenie meyer h8trs skip past the new moon review.sorry to say her name on scotts site.
oh sorry bout the self promotion too but i ve had like 4 visitors on my site *sad* its lonly thank u people that have been there though
Ummmm crap! I DON’T KNOW WHAT TEAM TO CHOOSE!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE THIS SERIES AND THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!! it rocks!!! it didnt turn out how i expected it to but it was stilll awesome!! i love surprises and this was one!! i cant wait to read extras. i wanna know wut they are. hmmmmmmmmm………..
This book and series was a-maze-ing. I can’t wait until I read Extras. As soon as I saw it in the library catalouge I screamed because I thought the series was over. BUt I still can’t recover from Zane’s death. It happened all so fast that I couldn’t help but cry.
Great series. LOVED IT! Can’t wait to read Extras.
Specials was amazing, I finished it in one day, I just couldn’t put the book down. Though I really didn’t want it to end, the whole trilogy I mean. I have a bad habit of reading forward just to see if I can read a scene with David or with Zane, my two favourite guys in the book. Unfortunately I read Zane died ahead. Though I fully spoiled it for myself and saw it coming after the first time, it made me cry both times that I read it. Uglies, Pretties, and Specials was amazing, hope this trilogy can become something more, with a 5th book after Extras, waiting on Extras still, because I’m sure everyone would want to read it. I know books can’t go on forever but these are the best books I’ve ever read and I can’t get over how amazing they are for months now. Well I’m hoping for the movie someday. Really, it would be an award winning movie that’s famous world wide if it were to happen. Please make a movie, and come to Canada, Ontario, Mississauga/Toronto !!
omgsh i hope they make a movie!!!!! i love this series!! its awesome and full of action. i cant wait to read extras i have been trying to go to da bookstore and buy it but the storm is really bad so i have to stay home ๐ specials rocks!! my friend and me are both harry potter lovers also and we have talked and joked about wut voldemort would be like as a pretty. if they make a movie then i think voldemort should be a pretty. ooooo mabe a cutter. that would be awesome. any way. i totally think that scott should continue with this series.
Goodness Gracious. Those books rocked pretty hard.
Scott, I am trying to forgive you for killing Zane.Trying very hard as a matter of fact. Zane was like the best character ever, how could you kill his awesomeness?It’s heart wrenching.I seriously thought I might cry but I was in too much shock.Still trying to forgive.Still failing miserably.Oh yeah, my name was Tally & Shay but I just changed it to Tally & Zane.*sigh*tears*
Still awesome book though!
c231t
one of my faves in the series…. i didnt like extras as much though… but i thnk this is my fave out of all 4…
OMG i luv extras. im mad at scott for killing Zane-la, but i luv David igot my mom hooked. iwant a movie and more books
aya rocks and Hiro is sosososo annoying i thought there would be more extra people
I can’t say that I was dissapointed by Extras but I don’t think I liked it as much as the rest of the books, the reason is basically because its not in America and its sort of harder to relate to the characters like Aya,Hiro,and Ren.But other than that it was good to get a look at how the whole world changed not just where I am.
Still Fawesome book!
See ya!
This would have been my choices
Zane or David? DAVID
Ugly or pretty? PRETTY WITHOUT THE BUBBLEHEADEDNESS
Wild or city? WILD!
Special or sane? IDK!!!!
I LOVE THE BOOKS!!
I RECON YOU SHOULD MAKE A FIFTH BOOK!!!!!
My choices?? Zane or David? Zane. But I know she SHOULD be with David. *sigh*
Ugly or pretty? Neither. Special. Woot!
Wild or city? Way wild.
Special or sane? Special. Duh. I liked Tally better as a Special-head than I did in any of her other stages.
My choices….
Zane of David? Zane 100%. David grew up knowing about the lesions. Zane figured it out for himself. He knew that something was wrong with his/all of their minds without anyone telling him. I cried when Zane died. But I mean… yeah.
Ugly or pretty? Special. Definatly.
Wild or city? Wild. She can do a lot to help when she’s free of city constraints.
Special or sane? Special. I think Tally’s better as a special, just because she is re-wiring herself, thinking for herself. Learning about what’s happened to her.
I loved all four books. Shay is hilarious when she’s cursing. And when she’s playing with nanos. xD I love in EXTRAS how Tally wants to know how to get past the hovercams, and Fausto suggests glitterbombs, and then Shay yells Nanos! And when they’re talking about them owing the Extras ships because they burned them, Shay’s like, “They’re just lucky we didn’t use nanos.”
In SPECIALS, I love the part when Tally and Shay break into the armory, especially when it describes Shay swinging something around and killing the spray-drones. Very funny. So, yeah. Great job Scott-la.

my choices:
Zane or David: definitely ZANE!!

I really liked these 3 books. I think that they’re amazing and I am not into the whole future type book setting but these are still good! I have Extras in my hand right now and I’m going to start reading it.
I think that the ending was very interesting and I’m just glad Tally didn’t die. But that’s so sad about Zane, poor guy. =[
omg thank you scott for this trilogy the extraas are so awesome .Plss keep writing. ever since i started being a total nerd which is good.
I didn’t really like Zane. I don’t care for him in the end. I only thought he was nice when they were on the picnic and JUST friends. David is the guy to be with. Woo for David!
aww….Zane….why are you so fawesome? and so….dead?
OMG i love this book and david is so awesome! i like him way better than zane. david is so sweet!
nah, zane is just better.
I like zane and David. im reading specials right now! i just got past the part with all the crazy nanos!

Specials was definately my favorite book of this series!! I loved how Tally decided to stay Special and warn her old friends that she was going to be out there, resisting them. I also cried when Zane died, because he was my favorite character!!
Thanks Mr. Westerfield for writing these books, they’ve opened my mind in soo many directions!
R.I.P Zane-la
First off, R.I.P. Zane-la
Second, Specials was the second best book of the series (Pretties was the best).
I really miss Zane. I cried more for Zane than I did for all the characters in Deathly Hallows Combined (and that’s a lot).
Thanks for such a great series Scott-la!!! I hope I can be as great a writer as you someday.
Now to go find Peeps and Midnighters and read those!
~Miharu Skii
I almost cried when i was reading about Zane’s death (i was in biology so of course i didn’t want to look like a fool).
I didn’t like Specials as much as I liked Uglies or Pretties, but it was still such a captivating book.
It did take me longer to read though.
It took me a day to read.
well normally books that i really like, they take me less than a day to read (like uglies and pretties) but idk this one, it just took me a lot longer
Yeah, I read it over Christmas break so I didn’t have pesky school work taking up all my time.
I’m listening to How To Save a Life, makes me think of the book.
~Miharu-la
i have read the whole entire series twice! and i cryed ALOT when zane died both the times i read specials! i like david but i like zane more!
definitely alexis. how can ppl manage to like david better?? i mean he’s sweet and everything but zane-la is just wayyyyy better

(doing that cuz of wat serafina zane said on extras spoilers. just incase anyone is wondering wat the heck im doing)
I read the end in school and i started crying in the middle of class…Lol it was weird
right there with ya nikky-la, right there with ya
(okay this is officially freaky, first there is someone named Pearl on here, which is my dog’s name, then someone named Maddie, my other dog’s name, then someone named Kally, my cat’s name, and now someone named Nikky, my sis’s name.creepy!)
very creepy

LOL’ed at Miharu Skii’s little joke about Hallows.
Well, seeing as I’m a guy I didn’t cry over Zane, but he was a good guy and will be missed in Extras (which I haven’t read). Probably my favorite thing about the book was the skintenna network. To be connected with all of your friends constantly would be really cool.
i agree Miles-wa. but wats with the LOL’ed at Miharu Skii’s? i dont get it. wats the Hallows? and i think we understand how u didnt cry cuz ur a guy. honestly, i didnt cry about it either.(and im a girl, so it doesnt really matter if u cried or not) i just felt really bad cuz i did love zane.and i still do…

The Deathly Hallows is the seventh Harry Potter book.
Zane was one of the best characters in a book ever (next to Edward of course).
~Miharu Skii~
TEAM Z/E
oh right…forgot about that. im not a harry potter fan, as you probably figured out.
Lizzy-wa
TEAM Z/E/J
Yeah, kinda. I’m not really a fan either, but I used to so I kind of had to finish the series. The only books I *really* like are: Twilight, Uglies (obviously), the Darren Shan Saga, and I’m reading Where the Heart Is right now.
~Miharu Skii~
TEAM Z/E
I’m sad!!!!! In Extras there is no Zane and I’m so close to the end. If I finish then there won’t be anything else that’s good to read, but if I don’t finish than I won’t know what happens!!!!!!!!!!!! Infact in Extras I almost fin Tally a bit as a jerk.
wats darren shan saga about? and where the heart is right now? cuz i need to find some books to read..so..yea.
for book rec: i say marked and betrayed . its about vampires ๐ after twilight, i started loving vampire books…heh heh. my best friend said that im obsessed with vampire book now. it was quiet funny actually. and she called me coldblooded cuz my hands are like always cold 24/7. so we both found that pretty funny after she said that.
Lizzy-wa
TEAM Z/E/J
The Darren Shan Saga is about vampires too. I’ve only read the first one ‘Cirque Du Freak’, and there’s like 12 books in all, but yeah, it’s about vampires. It’s a lot darker than Twilight though.
I finished Where the Heart Is, it was really good, I’m going to rent the movie now.
If you want to read some *really* good books, read Maximum Ride, by James Patterson. The first one is called The Angel Expiriment’, it’s my third favorite book series ever, next to Twilight and Uglies!
~Miharu Skii~

ok, i might try that..i just need to read the review of it first…and that might take a while cuz im soo busy this weekend.

wat?!?!?!?!? whyyyyyyy…give me a good reason…this is gonna be interesting
Lizzy-wa
TEAM Z/E/J
Muy confuzzled. Yep I’m very confused.
Because he shouldn’t have died the way he did. And I just think, he wouldn’t have changed much, just a little paler, he already had the gold eyes. Besides, I’m a vampire too! (My name on everyother website I’m on is Vampire Girl Miharu Skii.) What’s your objection? The whole Twilight/Uglies crossover, whoever said that it had to be Twilight? He could just be a random vampire, even though he’s not random.
Imagine Tally finding out Zane is now a vampire. David’s jealous.
Vampire Girl ~Miharu Skii~
TEAM Z/E
nah..just not right. and not wat i was thinking of about zane. and zane might not be dead. i wish. he could somehow manage to live after tally left cuz she nvr did see them pull that cord thing out….
Lizzy-wa
TEAM Z/E/J
Hmmm…very fawesome ideas peoples! Earth to Scott! Listen to us! Pretty please with sugar on top?
If Zane actually lived I think that would be awesome.
I really did like the whole zombie idea he had during April Fools. I cracked up for weeks after I saw that picture.
Or since it’s the future they should be smart enough to know how to revive a vegetable!
And good point, we never saw them pull out the cord.
Yay, but even if they could undie him (coudnt think of a better word) it would have been to late because, the whole place was all burning or something ( read too many books seince specials, cant remeber)
Oh check out my discussion of Uglies, working on a midnighter page
http://www.freewebs.com/ugliesdisscusion/index.htm
well, they could somehow get zane out of there..u nvr kno.
Lizzy-wa
TEAM Z/E/J
yay, tally just left him there and someone could have down some extreme mindcasting
w8 thats midnighters
its not that i cried that zane died(well i did) but it was mostly how he died. When he was on lifesupport but the doctors said that people needed itmore then zane! it was like zane didnt matter anymore! *sniff* tear****
yay if frzizz died i might dies
not to be mean or anything but tali-wa ur not making any sense to me..can u exxplain a little more of wat theheck ur saying?!?!?!?!?!?!
Lizzy-wa
TEAM Z/E/J
Oh about zane dying than i was sad but ohh frizz is in extras sry oh and i was going crazy about midnighters so i started talking about mincasting to bring zane back to life
I still think Zane should be a vampire, unless someone knows alchemy or something, alchemy could work. Besides, if he didn’t die, he would still be brain damaged beyond belief. I know it’s the future, but that doesn’t mean that human have somehow figured out how to reconstruct a brain, that’s basically AI, and that’s still illegal.
BTW Frizz made Extras
Vampire Girl
~Miharu Skii~
TEAM Z/E/F
well, they could find someway to fix his damaged brain with is being legal since technically there are no laws…like u said, its the future, anything can happen
Lizzy-wa
TEAM Z/E/J
What’s alchemy?
I wish I was Tally.
I almost cried when Zane died >.< it was so sad tho! But it all worked out in the end…and when you think about it…it all came down to when Tally got Dr. Cable with the cure…if that hadn’t happened then it would have been all for not…..Great book tho! ๐
who wouldnt???(thats just a figure of speech, okay? so dont like start a whole conversation of who would and who wouldnt and whyy)

then read it again ๐
Lizzy-wa
TEAM Z/E/J
i actually read the pretties and specials before i read the uglies but i just read the uglies last week and i just like five min. ago finished the pretties. and im about to start on the specials. i reread them cause i felt since i didn’t read the uglies i missed out on alot. i love these books. i’m not obsessed with them but they are all i think about. i don’t need tv or the computer or an ipod. just curl up with a good book and i’m good to go. but i hate it that zane died. it was so sad i swear i almost cried!!! idk about david. he was tally’s first love and he saw past her uglyness to see the real beauty inside her. but also most of that was a lie. but zane helped tally cure herself and without him she might not be where she is today. and i think they really loved each other. he was the one to replace david when tally forgot him-because of the lesions-. it wasn’t her fault. if it wasn’t for her they wouldn’t know if the ‘cure’ even worked at all.and i think maddy should forgive tally. and i was totally suprised when i read it was doctor cable who saved tally. i was sure it was david. what i am most disappointed with is that the extra’s have nothing to do with tally. i was thinking after i finished the specials there would be a fourth book and it would reveal shay and tally still friends, ‘ pretty city ‘ slowly crumbling and that shay actually lied to tally about zanes death to get her to leave. and so on. but nooooooooo. i’m not sure if i’ll read the extra’s. i probably will though. i love a good book. no matter what.
I hate that Zane died too!!! ๐
And btw you kind of have to read the other books to understand naything that happens almost. How did you know what anything was? Also I was kind of disapointed with Extras. I think it was ok but the ending wasn’t very good. I don’t know I just think it could of been better.
hey, do any of you know if Scott is gonna write any mo? Cause he REALLY needs to!!! I love the whole series! Plus, I liked Extras but I wish Tally was in it mo cause she is my FAV!!!
Kara-la: Cutters: Wouldnรขโฌโขt it be weird if someone started cutting themselves after reading this book because they thought it would make them รขโฌลicyรขโฌย? Yeah just a thought.
———-
Yeah, just a thought. I loved and hated this book. It was a good book, really. But I hated it mostly because it was the reason I started cutting. Now, I can’t blame my self-destructive habits entirely on Scott Westerfeld. I had read other books about cutting, and I was going through a very rough time in my life. But yes, I did cut for the first time because I was wondering if it really would make me “icy.”
Yeah. Never do it, please.
You stopped right?
plzz tell me u stopped.

I am so depressed right now. I finished Specials at 3 in the morning, and I cried forever. I loved the book, and really it was fantastic, but Zane didn’t have to go,,, forever. The chapter, “Patient” was very very sad and I couldn’t understand how Tally could leave him like that. I expected something more from a girl who lost her loved one. I just couldn’t face that Zane was gone (although he’s just a fictional character, I got really into the book), and he didn’t deserve it!! ….. everytime I start thinking of Zane it really hits me hard so I thought I could just get this feeling out of me by posting here.
Mr. Westerfeld, you’re great! I normally am not interested in Sci-Fiction, but I think from now on I’ll try other ones. Your books incorporate ideas that our society face, without getting boring. Excellent novels ๐
oh crap..heh heh i was like suppose to post this up after my name and i forgot..so this was wat i was gonna say:
there’s this organization thing called TWLOHA(To Write Love On Her Arm) and im trying to spread it around..and the point is this organization is like helping depressing ppl and like ppl on drugs…uh..u can ask me questions if u need more info…or u could read their website. but we(some online ppl) are trying to get ppl to write LOVE on their arm for like every holiday since those ppl would be depressed and we want them to kno that they’re not alone..anyways, like i said, if i hav questions, u can ask me..just put like Lizzy-wa, prl, or TWOLAH question, or something like that and i’ll kno u want me to answer something for u.

AHH! Specials was such an excellent book. I was really upset when Zane died, but the fact that she ended up staying in the wild with David made me very very happy. Because he had been there and no matter what Tally did, David was always there for her. And I’m sure Zane would have been so too, but he was all trembly and they couldn’t fix him. No use moping over what cannot be helped. And people, David helped Tally rewire herself too!
But I have to say, I totally was expecting Extras being all about Tally too, so I didn’t properly savor the end of Specials. It really upset me that Extras wasn’t all TALLY TALLY TALLY. and David.
When I started Specials, I hated the thought that Tally was going to be one. They just completely repulsed me. anyone else?
But once I found out about the skintennas (my personal favorite invention) and the icy clarity that came with being a Cutter, I fell in love with the idea of being Special.
I wish Zane would have been one too though. =/ =[
i didn’t think tally being a special was that bad. probably cuz i knew she was gonna rewire herself no matter wat…but to think of it, i think being a SPECIAL special was pretty fawsome!! just me tho.

i feel your pain
It was soooooo sad.
How come Scott had to kill Zane in this story!?
But I still loooved Tally and David together.
It was better than Tally and Zane because David sees the true Tally.
U know!
Like the inside of Tally.
Who knows!?
Maybe Zane hated Tally if she was an ugly.
Well… that was very mean of meee!
But DAVID IS BETTER THAN ZANE!!!
Plus, David knew Tally since she was an ugly(David knew Tally first).
That’s my opinion but…..
Anyway, people answer my question, PLEASE!
How come Zane had to die in SPECIALS!?
OMG!
Are u okay, Kathryn!?
I never knew anyone who was cutting themselves.
So….. i am kinda panicking right now!
Pllllllz don’t cut yourself anymore!
i hope u can overcome your rough times without cutting!
Plllz tell me u stopped!
i am going to get worried!!!!!!!!!!
NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!!
Specials was so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so GOOD
๐ i loved this book but zane shouldnt have died
does anyone here have any advice for what i should say to my best friend of 6 years who recently started cutting? we’re freshmen and she met this girl who i also kno who cuts, and i dont know what happened, but i started noticing, and one day she actually came out and told me! this was recently, and i dont know what to say to her
she’s going through a tough time in her family and i think she might have stopped in the past month or so, but how can i be sure? and what should i say?
some advice or expericne would be great
Tee-la: i think first u should talk to her and make sure she’s not depressed…then try to find out if she still cuts…and if she does, try contacting a counselor..it would be the easiest way.or u could try to give her more attention and tell her that she doesnt need to cut herself just to get attention of wat her reason is. this question is probably for katie or jess on the extras spoiler page. try there, i think they’d have more advice.

My friend threathened to cut and kill herself. It was very scary so my other friend and I went to a conselour. We talked to her about my cutting friends problems. ( She was obsessed with a guy who didn’t like her). The conselour talked to her and really made and impact on her life. Tee-la you should go to your school’s conselour immediately!!
I have had so many encounters with people who cut themselves. I’m kind of like a counselor to so many people. It’s scary but it’s nice being able to help people.
But I totally agree with anonymous up there about David being better than Zane. i LOVE David!! YAY Tally and David =]
okay thanks guys
anytime tee-la. at my school we have student advisors, and im one of them so i guess i’m sorta a counselor but in these kind of situations, it would be best to have an adult dealing with this.

and zane-la is wayyyyy better than david. even tho i love him too, zane’s just btr
NOOO!
alright i will concede that zane is acceptable. but i am so much happier that she ended up with david at the end of specials. hes more fit to live with tally and all that shes been through
i cried when zane died, and yes i was sort of hoping she would end up with him. but once he was dead, i accepted it and was very pleased with the re-entry of david =]]
I wanted to KILL Scott-la after Zane died! I mean DAVID AND TALLY NEVER GET TOGETHER! So what’s the point? But of course I would never REALLY kill Scott-la. I mean, who would?
OK I take that back, they LIVE together, but they are not a Couple, I rest my case.
I didn’t cry when Zanie died, but I was in serious shock.
Amanda-wa. this is a SPECIALS spoiler zone, I wouldn’t be revealing bits of facts you find out in Extras on this page. Furthermore, get your facts straight, they do end up together.
honestly, i didnt cry either. i was just reallly upset and i told my friend the next day(she doesn’t read these books. i need to make her try it) anyways, yea…but i still love zane..and i guess i do accept that david was the other choice since zane died(no offense..dont pay attention to how i worded that if u like love david more than zane…that was not how i meant it).
i wanted to just yell at scott and ask him why?!?!?!?!?!? but obviously i couldnt.i would nvr want scott-la to die. who would write the 4th book to midnighters*(so on…), 5th book to uglies(so on..), and make sure they do the movie RIGHT!!(including the cast and script..etc.)

I got one friend to read she said it was too boring because she only got to page seven and she had for like 3 days. But then I got another person to read it and she likes it alot even though she is only like on page 100. I told her about the boring parts and she dais that she would just realy fast past them. She’s funny. We laugh like twenty-four seven
I was rlly sad when zane died=*(but ya i didnt cry either actually but i’m glad she left though in the end she needed to get away
i’m kinda mad people think dat david and tall-wa ended up together they didnt!!!but i do wish they did.zane was kool but david liked her before she was pretty and i think dats nice…im in the mood for pie….chocolate…oooooohhhh yum.
aww i was sad too ๐ฅ ๐ ๐ฅ
to scott-la: DO YOU GET TO WRITE THE SCRIPT FOR THE MOVIE? OR THE PLAN OR ANYTHING? just wondering…
I think he dose I am not sure. I mean he probably dose have to write that script but who knows.
**SPOILERS FOR EXTRAS SO IF U HAVEN’T READ IT YET AND PLANNING TO, IGNORE THIS !!!!!**

btw, they better let scott write the script/plan wtvr. it’s not going to be the same if it’s not. like TWLIGHT!! can’t believe they did that….ughhh!! so mad!!
The whole Zane dying thing–
ohgosh I nearly died myself.
That’s all I have to say right now.
They do end up together!!! and I liked it…I was rooting for David since Uglies but then the whole Zane thing happened and it was kinda hard…but Im still glad how it turned out ๐ Specials was good…except in Extras she is still portrayed as “Special” and stuff…not as bad but oh well…I wish the whole thing wasn’t over tho! Boo I need more! ๐
just wondering..so zane is paralysed right? which part of him??i know the arms..but which part??=x
Ok I know this is really old because I never noticed it before (I was t lazy to scroll up and read all the comments)

I love How to Save a Life! The Fray are like my most favorite band (along with Plain white t’s and All American Rejects and… there are too many to name sorry) As you can see I like all sorts of music. So I really can’t decide which band I like most.
I love my Superman/Tom Welling
lol I put my Superman at the end. And I forgot to put exclamation marks.
It just dosn’t seem to be the same with out the exclamations points

i am so brain-missing
Every time I write that I love Tom Welling and Superman at the end of my page I keep forgeting the exclamation points. And I forget every time almost.

Whoops that wasn’t waht you were talking about I was laghing because I just got done watching a Fred show on youtube and was thinking about it.
lol pplz talk! im all alone! ={
I here again. Oh on my last comment I forgot to put the ending. I am very tired right now. I just got done writing lmy six pages (and later I am going to have to finish)
before that I signed up for softball then I went to my aunts house but no one was there before that ai was on the computer and was doing everything you coulds think of (that was a sarcastic comment) like 2 seconds ago my mom got mad at me because I am on here.
I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
i just finished specials yesterday… it so sad! i luv it, but its depressing! mostly cuz zane dies… and also cuz tally is so different when shes special and that zane never really gets to see the real rally again. the 2nd book was the best. i luvd how tally and zane kept themselves bubbly. why cant david hav died instead of zane!?!?! tally and zane need to be 2gether!
i meant tally not rally
omg i cryed when Zane died cause he sounded hot but hes dead…..={
Tally and Zane do need to be together, that’s why Zane should be a VAMPIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TEAM Z/E
lol. He should be a vamprie though. He’ll never die!!!! A girl in my class thinks that Zane is ugly . But you can really only see half of his face on the book cover.
I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
i still dont think that zane should be a vampire..i mean like yes, vampires are likee sooo awesome (cuz i love edward 2), but it just isnt zane… not how i imagined him at least…he’s like in a totally different worllddddd

I thought Zane dying was pretty sad cuz Tally waz like so close to him. How could Tally just give him up and go with David? After all, Zane died surging for Tally. If i waz Tally i’d just remain alone for the rest of my life and regretting for Zane’s death. Ps Zane really cared about Tally, and not her looks. He could have chosen another Pretty after Tally became a Special but he didn’t, so that shows he really love her.

I HATED THE ENDING OF THIS BOOK!!!! I cried so hard when Zane died. I was about ready to throw the book against the wall! How could you KILL ZANE??!! He and Tally were so cute together! I mean it just ended all sad and stuff. I wish David would have died instead!!
Hey I almost threw the book against the wall too.

Okay, i read the first book. i havent reely had money to get the other books but i REALLY wanted to know how they ended so i just messed it up for myself ๐ i was suprised that i liked this book. like i read alot, but this book was by-far my favourite! My best friend is dense, and she doesnt read, so when she got this book as a present. im like im definatly taking it, and shes like i dont read anyways ahah. so i read it in like 2 days. and was like oh my god, so i looked it up on the internet cuz im that cool. and realized there was 2 -3 more books in the seris. i got this book in the usa and i live in canada so i didnt know if they sold here, but i found out they do, and my birthday is in 7 days and as soon as i get money im getting the other ones!!!! Yay!! Well anywys, one more question on the covers of the book,s whos on them? i know the first one was tally, but the second one i was guessing shay and david :S but i dont know, and the third one i have no idea who it is.. oh well. byee! <3

i think there’s a word for cutter these days… Wait is it emo? I don’t think the cutters were emotional… Anyways, i’m straying off-topic. I was at my school library today ( even though i own all the books [ i’m that addicted!] and such…) and I read through Uglies and Pretties.( Yes, i’m literate[why does everyone ask me that?] okay, getting off-topic again, sorry!) Then the bell rang. Hee hee. I don’t think scott’s writing a fifth book, as much as i wish for it… Zane-la was better for tally. i heard this quote in the book eclipse, but it SO goes for zane-la, tally-wa and david. ” I might be your sun and your air, but Edward is your drug. You need him more than me. ” Okay, let me explain. If you’ve read eclipse you’ll know what it’s about, but if you haven’t, just read it cause i’m not spilling. David is resembling the guy that was speaking, and this ” Edward ” is Zane-la ( even though he was pretty much tally’s sun, air, and drug [ reminds me of the lesion removing pill * shudder * ] ) Whoops, i’m rambling! Hi to all the people i forumed with before!! ( the only one i can remember right now is Lizzy-wa, but no worries, it’s just because that name rings a bell! )
Joanie-wa
Keep Zane-la’s spirit alive and ( fifth book pretty much hoping at this point ) Byyyeeee
Sorry, to all those I’m going to offend but, I was secritely happy that Zane died, now before you try to hunt me down and rip me limb from limb think about it, Zane was suffering, he was in pain, his brain was being eaten. It’s better that he died than spent the rest of his life as a vegtable in pain.
That’s all I’ve got to say (for now)
joanie-wa, i talked to u before?? or was it the other lizzy-wa? yea there’s sorta two of us but she hasnt been on for a pretty long time but im not sure if she was on this one. anyways, i do sorta agree with u. how the eclipse quote attaches with the uglies trilogy. and nameless, even tho zane was in pain,, he still didnt have to die. there had to be a way to cure him…

I am lucky but at the same time not. In my school we have this system where books are worth so many points. When you read a book you take a test on it adn you get the points for it. Well you have to get som many points every quarter. Well the last several times the main helpers to get my points were Uglies trilogy. Well those were only 13 points and I have to get 50. So I don’t what to do cause it wont let you take a test on somehting twice even if you read 2 years ago.
I love Sueprman/Tom Welling!!!!
oh, we have that too. but we dont have to do it. i dont even think our grade does it anymore…anyways, yea. i hated them cuz i was always afraid that i ‘d do bad so i would always like write notes or something and i’d never actually enjoy the book (of course that was wen i was young and i had no idea wat i was doing, but now, i remember them unless i really hate the book, then i have to write notess)

I am so sad as Zane dies…… ’cause I loved him !!
I enjoy David too but… Zane is so sensible and kind, and I think Tally and Zane was a better couple of lover…
I imagined better David as a precious friend for Tally, not as a boyfriend…
(Hah… Sorry if my english is not very good, I’m just a french schoolgirl who is bad in english :S)
The fourth book (Extras) goes out only in September, 2008 in France, it is so difficult of wait to there!! But obviously history takes place in Japan, and since I love Japan, I can definitely wait for a good translation ^. ^ Yeaah ๐ My two passions meet in an only one!
Ah… Sorry, It’s not “sensible” in english, this tells itself in another way but I know how not to translate… It is to have a loving heart and to be full of good feelings bah in more beautifull…
Ah which marvellous poet I follow… In fact I am sure that what I write is unreadable, to voilรย .fr no rรยฉsoud all problems no ” ^^
oh my gosh! u live in france, Mine-chan? i love paris. (heh, sry, just had to say that)
thats really awesome, but it probably sucks to wait for a book translation isnt it? like its out, but u cant read it until like another year…(thats not to be mean or anything either..im just saying how i would feel like if i had to wait for a book thats already out but in another language0

I’m so sad that zane died, but oh well what can you do? I really hate Dr.C, I hope that some day that tally will be the one who canges the thing about specials thinking that they are better then the people. you think the author could write another book (not extras) about how tally can save all the bubble head pretties!! I really love the book. I can’t wait to start extras.
omg, i balled my eyes out when zane died, so did my best friend. i sorta had a feeling that zane was gonna die though. at least she still has david. speaking of david, did i miss the part when he told us how david got his scar? cause i never found out
Hehe In reality I live in Toulouse ( Air France, Do U now ?), not Paris… But, It’s true, It’s very difficult to wait “Extras”… T_T I think i’m going to die from impatience by waiting in September…
wait.. i dont get it. wat do u mean by air france? i kno not paris..i just had to throw that in there.heheh.

oh and another thing. r the people on the cover of the pretties supposed to be tally and zane? or do they just represent the pretties?
um, scott-la has this whole thing that he posted on his blog that talks about it… just scroll and look for it (not to be mean or anything, its just cuz i dont really remember) and i think its suppose to represent tally and zane..thats wat i though..but again, its another pov thing

I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
I have to admit I had only read books one and two in the series before i read this forum. I know.. so bad of me. But at the end of the 2nd book i just needed to know if Zane would be ok. He’s my favorite character and I really pushed for Tally and Zane to be together. When i read he died.. i was more than devestated. David was just a phase for Tally and when she became a pretty, and even a special their relationship never should’ve survived. I must say after reading this i definitely will not read any more of scott westerfields books ever again.
Why they are sooo good like Peeps was one of the greatest books I have read!!!!! You probably love the rest of his books!!!
I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
Hey peoples!!!! I am sad I left my cds at my sister’s in Tucson and my mp3 is broken so I am going musicless!!!!!!!!! I sucks.

so…..reminding myself i’ve read these.
ouch, Regan-la. i feel the pain. seriously. i’m the kind of person who freaks out when my mp3 battery dies and i have to wait 3 hours to charge it.
i usually end up playing music til the windows shatter….
I love music(btw My mommy bought me a new mp3 so fo course if you know me the first thing I did was put music on it) I there was no music I would die!!!!!!! No I am serious!!!!
I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
i love music, but i wont die if my ipod runs out of batteries..unless im like really bored. like we’re on a “vacation” but its to see her friends,and then im really bored cuz i dont like talking to their children. if i forgot my ipod/ran out of batteries, then i’d die.

Ok Seriously, I LOVED Zane. HOW Could You Kill Him?
I Mean..David? I Could I Live With That. But ZANE? Ugh.
I Was Literally Crying My Eyes Out When I Read That Part.
After He Died, I Just Skimmed The Rest Of The Book.
Then I Threw It Under My Bed. The Only One I Bothered To
Put On My Bookshelf Was Pretties. I Read It Again And AGAIN. Definetely My Favorite Book In The Series..And Definetely Because Of Zane. Hahaha. I Mean Dont Get Me Wrong, I Really Liked David In Uglies But After Pretties And Half Of Specials I REALLY LOVED Zane. Then When Extras Came
Out, I Only Bought It Because I Though In It Tally Would
Find Some Kinda Of Time Machine And Go Back To Save Zane Or Like It Turned Out He Had Never Died Or Anything, He Had Just
Gone Into Hiding. But It Turned Out It Wasn’t Even Her
Whom It Was Mainly About.
=[
Hahaa. Call Me Obsessive, But WHY ZANE????
Oh And For All The Twilight Fans Commenting I Find It Kinda Funny Cause I Was Like Completely Obssessed With That Series
Until I Started Reading These. Hahaha.
Oh And I Also Think Scott Should Rewrite The Series In Zane’s
Point Of View. I Mean Stephanie’s Writing Midnight Sun Which
Is In Edward’s Point Of View..And I’m REALLY Interested In Knowing What Zane Was Thinking…Up To The Point He Died.
Haha.
OMG!!!!
this is THE BEST trilogy EVER!!!!!
its soooo sad that zane dies but im happy that tally and david are together (though not officialy) but still!
so does Dr. Cable die? i dont remember reading that!
props to the author! YOU RULE!
there should SO be a movie for this trilogy!
i mena come on! that would be sooo awsome!
i havent read extras… yet but i’m going to tommrow! and i cant wait!!! Scot you should totally wright more books on this series! but do it in like david’s point of view… or maybe someone from a different city who was going through the same thing… idk all that i know is that i never want this series to end!!!
Wait. I have such a crazy idea, it’s impossible.
They’re in the future, right?
So can’t they take Zane’s brain cells, reenergize them ( the living ones ) And make it slightly like medspray? brainspray?
It’s the future, anything is possible.
they could do that, and make his brain come alive again, with artificial brain cells. Can’t they?
Camp Zane is Awesome
Camp David’s alright
In-the-middle camp is where i am,
like Tally!
Hey peoples! whats up?
That reminds me 1 time we where in the computer lab and Jake Ziler asked the computer teacher what was up and she mad eihim write that he would never be disrespectful to a teacher. We were all kind of acting odd twords it because all he said was “sup” it was kind of weird.
Hola…sooo…. Things on here have kind of been slow on here latley.
I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
OMGOMGOMG!!! I TOTALLY LOVED SPECIALS!!!
it was really sad too….
i like really criedwhen i found out Zane died cuz he did the whole brain operation thing jsut for tally and i was at her for not giving their relationship another chance
BUT i’m still really glad that david and tally are working together to help save the world!! hopefully they become really close friends….. I JUST LOVE ZANE AND DAVID!!!!!!they are sooo awesome!!!
Overall I LOVED THIS BOOK!!!! i’m about to get extras adn i jsut can’t wait!!

David Rox and Zane sucks im so geting the team david shirts!!!
im kinda glad that zane died i hated him but i read the 2nd one again and i like him a little more but david still is the all time greatest boy/ man in the uglys trilogy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I’ve read the first three books and when Zane first appeared in Pretties from the way he talked to Tally and acted I was almost a 100% sure that he was actually David who had undergone a pretty operation to get Tally out of the city. I mean he even tried to get her to talk about David. But my predictions were wrong. I was really sad when Zane died because I think he understood Tally more than David, I mean he was the one who helped her find herself twice. I just think he got the sore end of everything.
woah woah woah hold up! DavidRox, did u just say David is BETTER than Zane?! that is so0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o not true!!!!! (and, if any of you guys have read the Twilight series, you should comment on the Scott Facts post cause a lot of peeps talk about Twilight there and it’s pretty kewl)**
I am with you sara-senei I LOVE Zane and let me tell you he soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than David!!!!!!!!!

i try and suceeded in not liking david or zane more i just appreciated the book
*ok must stop losing the game its the third time today,BTW reading this makes you play and lose the game*
(rules for the game at http://ilostthegame.org/rules/ )
i LOVED this book! i cant wait to read extras! its soo sad that zane died tho. ๐ but there has never been a book i liked more
and BTW it sux cuz neither la or wa sounds good at the end of my name lol
I love this book it puts things in perspective and uses flashbacks very well wriiten I hate that Zane had to die he really started to make Tally change but I also love David more he sees Tally like no one else will again though I don’t like in Extras that Tally is portryed as a crazy lunatic it really kinda pissed me off but anyways <3 Scott Westerfeld I love Shay she really cares for Tally they complete each other they are great friends. Over all I love these books but I don’t think anybody could really fulfill Davids Character there is so much personality and details of everything same with Shay and Tally. i will maybe try out for the part of Tally wish me luck!
So if they’re coming out with a movie of this series (which I really hope they do). What are they gonna do about the Pretties and Specials? I mean, they have to be OBVIOUSLY different from uglies. That is some serious CGI-live-action-infused-manga-shots to worry about. And how would they account for every actor? Every extra (no pun intended) would have to have their faces run through a computer, made symmetrical, then plastered into EVERY SHOT!!! That is too dizzy-making for my random little brain to comprehend.
So whaddya think?
P.S.
if everyone is racially averaged in Tally’s world, how would they cast?
Again I say, DOWN WITH THE MOVIE IDEA. Why hasn’t anyone on here learned other than me that book-turned-movie sucks Every Time?!
Wondering, there’s that and a million other reasons why they shouldn’t make a movie. if scott-la made a movie of Uglies/Pretties/Specials I just might have to kill him… well maybe not but I’d do SOMETHING about it!!!!!
Yeah. Like protest outside the movie theatre and get kicked out. I’ve always wanted to do that…
Hmm ya know I’ve been thinking about the books alot. I was thinking, wouldn’t it have been fine if the operation went on? I know it’s kinda taking away a person freedom and all, but still… what was it hurting? The wild stayed safe, people were safe and had fun throughout their life. Uglies had something to look forward to, and to dream about- becoming pretty. They could enjoy eating, getting hurt, etc. without worry because all their fat and guilt was stripped away when they turned 16. New pretties could party all night, do practically whatever they want for a few years then move on to middle pretty, and have a family and enjoy life. All because a lesion was placed in their brains… you gotta girl Dr. Cable some credit there ๐
Haha, I meant give not girl in the last sentence… and Dndrea-la We’ll have to figure out a way to do so together. Two crazy girls screaming outside a movie theater until some guards come carry us 100 yards away ๐ FUNNESS. I gtg for dinner. Bbl, asap!
Hey so, I just finished reading Specials and I have to say, it was incredibly hard for me to put the books down. Working nine hour shifts goes much slower when you’re itching to get back to the story.
But ummm… I really wanna read the alternative ending… Anyone know where I can find it?
To answer your question, Reagan, I liked David more because I saw more of a connection between him and Tally then I did between her and Zane. But it might be because it was all about her and David in Uglies and I was so attached to him, and then all the sudden she becomes a pretty and she forgets all about him. So I was still routing for him throughout the whole book, and classifying hers and Zane’s relationship as a fling – something that would eventually pass. But it never did, and by the time I moved onto Specials, it was too late for me to start liking him since a) we didn’t see all that much of him and b) when Tally was all ‘superior thoughts’ she made it easier for me to find a reason why Zane would never be enough for her.
Anyway, I hope that made sense.
I was Team Zane all the way ๐
But I did feel bad for David. Still, I can’t say I truly wanted her to end up with him. Poor Zane-la!
I’ve yet to read the alternative ending. I’ll get right on it. ๐
Anyway, Why Scott?! WHY DID YOU KILL ZANE?!
I cried, I bawled, I threw a hissy fit right in my living room in front of my parents, haha.
Still very good book other than that.
Dang it, I can’t find the alternative ending. >:(
ANyone know where it is?
๐
haha I’ve been trying to figure that out myself.
Lol. Really late comment here.
I loved specials though. It is my second fave of his books {w/ or w/o Extras}
For me it’s kind of like:
1. Uglies.
2. Specials
3. Extras
4. Pretties.
Not that Pretties isn’t amazing {it is} but it just doesn’t feel as ‘real’ to me as the others. I guess if I had to pick sides I’d be for David. Zane just felt like a hasty replacement for David.
*pokes Jadelennox’s post {4}* That sort of describes my entire feeling about David, Zane, etc.
I don’t have much more to say, though… so bye! ;D
yeah ive been looking for the alternate ending also and i cant find it. i hope zane doesnt die in that one!! :[
Same here i saw it in the book but not on internet
What alternate ending? ‘Course I didn’t read Specials until recently, so it might have been taken down. Not that I’m a Zane fan, {not a huge David fan either} but I keep hearing people talking about this ending, and I want to see what it says. =/
When I read specials I got my copy at the library and once i finished it i was dying for something to do with tally and extras was on hold so i saw in the the back go see the alternate ending at: ( sorry can;t rember name but some thing like authers unvealed or coolplace) so i went there and all i could find was the last chapter of specials with comentary from scott westerfeld, very aggrevating :^(
Found the site Its at http://www.behindthepulse.com/specials/
Wait… I’m at the site but can’t find the alternate ending…
See what I mean
Oh… I though you meant that you found it…
For me,,,,,hmmmm….
definitly david(been with him since the beggining. im like in love<3
ugly(who wants to look like every one else even if you are beatiful,even though i would defintitly get some major surgel like snake fingernails. awsome!!!!)
wild is so much cooler and more interesting. its prettty without trying. so bubbly-making!
id want to be sane, although special is pretty cool. to bad i already have a bad temper as it is. hahahaha
-sniff- zane is dead -carrie in background- “YAY!! he’s dead!!” carrie never like zane… (personally not one of my favorites…but i never hated him) BUT HE’S DEAD?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? and in such a descriptive (or however you spell it) way!!! still love ya’ though!
im still upset zane is dead its so unhappy making now im going to start crying again who brought this upanyway
So my grandma’s dying the same way Zane did right now. It’s really sad. She went without air for too long and her brain swelled up. They unplugged all the machines a few hours ago and so now it’s only a matter of time until she’s gone.
poor zane
I loved Specials. ITS MY FAVORITE BOOK OF THE SERIES XD
I hated pretties (no offense, scott! thats just my opinion) especially the ending, because I hate Zane with all my heart, and I’m totally in love with David. So when Zane died in Specials I pumped a fist and screamed, “Yes!” I’m glad you killed him. XD THANK YOU SO MUCH!! He was REALLY bugging me.
I love Tally as a Special best…she has awesome senses and reflexes, and I think she’s the smartest! Plus, she’s more mature than she was when she was ugly.
And I LOVED THE ENDING!! It was the best ending out of all four endings, I think. I like how it gives you an idea of what Tally and David are going to spend the next few years doing, but also is a bit mysterious, so it leaves the rest up to your imagination. (my own imagination was fantasizing about tally and david getting together again…)
So thanks again, Scott, for the best book of the series! ๐
Oh yes and to answer your original questions…
1. DAVID!!! DAVID ALL THE WAY!! I’M HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE WITH HIM!! And I HATE Zane (as you probably already know)
2. Definitely Ugly. Because nobody REALLY is ugly (I think that Aya is extremely pretty on the extras cover, and same with tally on the uglies cover) plus, why would I want to be a bubblehead? even if it was during the extras time and the lesions were cured, I’d still want to keep the face I was born with. I hate plastic surgery.
3. Wild!! Wild rocks!! I love nature!! XD
4. And 100% Special!! THEY ROCK!! And I could rewire myself so my thoughts aren’t all messed up. XD
Oh and if you’re wondering WHY I hate Zane, these are my reasons:
1. David was there first. When Tally and David were together in Uglies, I thought they were perfect for each other, and I never wanted them to break up…David is a better guy- he’s so sweet and brave and kind, and he saw straight past Tally’s ugly face into her soul…Zane and pretty surgery came and ruined that. ๐
2. The only reason Tally fell in love with Zane was because the pretty surgery erased all her memories, so she forgot about David- she didn’t know what she used to have, that she used to be in love. And when her memories DID come back and she saw David again, she only chose Zane because her lesions made her see David as ugly!! Zane was just there because her mind was messed up.
3. The first time they kissed, Zane was just using Tally for information, and to get bubbly. He’s always just using her.
There’s a lot more, but you get the point. Boo Zane. Go David.
okay i loved this book like crazy but i am the only one who wishes that the new smoke would of lost and be capsured …. or myab ei’m just being too mean but when i was rereading specials today i was like man why did they just louse and then idk but i was toattly mad when zane died but sadly no tears not even on the second go around and trust me i was very very sad i had this disspessing song in my head and yea not got for that part but then it just went away
and is any other person’s favoite charcter Dr. Cable ?? i think i’m aloen on that too
Dr.Cable is freaky but I love that character
no sorrey, I have to say my fav character is Frizz
from Extras. He’s fawesome
I LLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVEEEEE Zane!!!!!!! Zane lives! Oh wait. NVM. Zane is so daring, and he died taking the risk with tally! Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo romantic! But not like Romeo and Juliet. I didn’t like it that much. I agree with Edward (Twiight) when I say Romeo is a butthead! :big:
Okay, to start i was lending my copies of your wonderful uglies series to my older brother’s girlfriend and my friend. As i was getting each of the books back i was reading my favoirte parts–which is, for the record, a lot of parts–but i have been wanting to know what happens to David and Tally when they are in the wild, and how Shay and everyone else meets up again for Extras. like what happens. I don’t like it how the story ends at that letter thing to shay and the others. i personally think you need to write another book of what happens to David and Tally in the wild and Shay and the other crims–new smokies–or whatever they are called..i forgot. Thank you by the way. Love you books..they are great! Hope you write more.
Hey what’s peeps. Well how is it going? I know i havnt kbeeh on in a long time but with any luck my mom will get our new computer soon.
I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
Firstoff, I have to say, I love Uglies and Pretties, but I just bought Specials and finished reading it, and I’m horrified! It all feels like a terrible nightmare…PLz ppl! Don’t freak on me, I’m not trying to bash the book, because it’s still awesome and I couldn’t put it down! Some of the ideas really got me upset though, and worried. My family has alot of issues with depressive disorders, most of my dad’s side stuggles, including me, and I admit I’ve had my own experience with cutting, as a way of trying to relieve the emotional pain. Thankfully I’ve had some really good friends who’ve helped me stop, but reading the book, I can’t help but be screaming in my head at you Scott!!! You make cutting sound so tempting and romanticized! Like if you cut all the complications and uncertainty and self-esteem issues will be cut away and leave you feeling clear-headed and icy. And you’re writing to teenagers – who have the most complicated, uncertain, messed-up lives already and would love a solution to escaping all crap we’re going through. I mean, seriously! Yeah, it’s fiction, yeah if we’re sane we’re not gonna do everything that we read about in books, but you’ve got Tally set up as this girl that ppl see as heroic, smart, finding a way to be herself no matter what…and she needs to cut herself to be icy, to get clear-headed. I’m 16, I haven’t even gotten to most of the major problems in my life and I still wouldn’t turn down a way to clear my head, get a rush of icy clarity once in a while. Great, explore the issue in your book, but inform your reader more! Tell them cutting won’t actually do that for you. That it’s going to make everything much more complicated because now you have the guilt of doing it, the scars to hide, and you can’t even feel normal anymore unless you cut again. It doesn’t give you super clarity, it just gives you a bit of endorphines that don’t last long enough and leave you even worse off feeling than before. I hate to say it because you’re so my favourite author and I can’t get enough of your books, I love your writing style, and everything else about the book was unbelieveably awesome, but I feel so betrayed by your lack of consideration, it was flat-out irresponsible. Kudos on trying to explore a controvercial topic that teens face, and as an added bonus, if parents and critics protest (like they did with the whole witchcraft-Harry Potter thing) it will just make the book more popular in infamy, but how hard did you think about the consequences of what you did and didn’t write? Ok, now that i’ve said what I needed, I just want to add that it is so cool that the original smoke was in Canada, possibly BC where I live! Yay!!
When i first started reading the uglies i was completely hooked on the book from start to finish. I loved how the ending leaves u hanging in suspense. And I have to say one of my favourite characters is David. I totally love David!!! Even if he’s described as ugly with imperfections and a crooked smile, I always imagine him to be super hot. After I finished reading the uglies I couldn’t wait to read the next two books! The pretties wasn’t as exciting as the uglies but it still OK. Finally, when I got to read the specials it was kind of predictable. Everytime Tally bumped into some one unknown i figured out who it was before I even read it. But near the very end when it was Dr.Cable that set her free i was so… surprised! When i was reading those pages I was thinking “Omgosh! It’s David, he’s going to save Tally” But it turned out to be Dr.Cable. I was so relieved that David didn’t leave her in the ruins in the end and they stayed together after everything they’ve gone through. I always knew they would be together in the end. It would have been totally upsetting if Zane and Tally were together in the end leaving David with no one.
Mr. Westerfeld…may I call you Scott? Scott it is!!!
well I just finished Specials and I must say, I am a very happy person, except the fact that now I need to go back to barnes and noble to get MORE BOOKS.
oh and one question…did you base any characters after real ppl? I hear a lot of authors say that they base characters off of ppl in real life, so…in that case can i marry david??? please??????
ok *rant over* but i loved how Dr. Cable was cured and how Tally saw her as a crumbly…and the fact that maddy liked Tally again (yay!!! happy dance!!!) and how you….ok i could go on forever, but I’ll save you from that ๐ Long story short…I LOVED ITTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!! k im gonna go get more of your books now! bye!
*runs out of room into car to barnes and noble*
Ooh, look at that, haven’t written here in sooo long. So… Anywaysss… You know, extras left that hollow “i want a fifth book badly” feeling in me… What if… SPOILER IF YOU HAVE NOT READ EXTRAS DO NOT READ OR YOU SHALT BE BLINDED MOMENTARILY UNTIL YOU EXIT THE PAGE!!!!!!!!!!
What if Tally had…a fight… with David after Aya-la saw them in the garden-thingie below…. And… OMG WHYYYY.

<3, Joanie-wa (Jo-la) , Hypermatic Pretty Special Ugly At Your Service! ( WHOOO GO CAMPS ZANE AND EDWARD!!!!! WHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! )
i am such a fan of all four books! i just want to know one thing why did scott write a 4th book? i am happy he did but why
xoxo “zane why did u leave us and Tally, with razor sharp nails”
Having just finished the three books I must say how much I enjoyed them. Some questions and comments:
Was it deliberate that it was almost impossible to determine where this story was set until mention was made of “Death Valley”? Except for the possible hint of the observatory at the end of Pretties, the story seemed to be set almost anyplace.
Tally’s parents appear momentarily in Uglies, and I appreciated that – while I recognize the need for an independent protagonist, I despair that they never have any family. But then never return. Along with David’s scar, was this another unfulfilled plot thread? In retrospect would you have left them out, or did they serve some purpose I can’t fathom? Did Tally have any siblings? Is it safe to assume that she could return home to visit her family anytime she chose to, given her abilities?
I appreciated the reluctance which the characters displayed towards killing, seemingly innocent of lethal force. The exceptions seem so stark: the murder of the old Smoky librarian, for example. But did the justice system lack any sort of mechanism for dealing with such things? One of the Specials murdered the librarian, Dr. Cable murdered David’s father, yet no penalty accrued to these people that we could see. Was justice ever meted out, or did a lot of things just fall through the cracks given all the changes?
I noticed the fact that in the third book, two “towers” collapsed and changed the world. Since YA authors are political, what might you be trying to say inasmuch as the first tower’s collapse was an inside job?
So do Tally and David ever have children?
Thanks for a wonderful set of books.
Oh yes, one more: any chance Shay was gay, and her mercurial relationship with Tally reflected her periodic disappointment that her affections would never be returned?
hmmmm… albatross i thought about that too. actually all my friends thought Shay might be gay. im not sure. she might just be the affectionate type. also she was David’s girlfriend sooo i don’t know if she is gay unless she turned after Tally stole him from her but then why would she like Tally. it just wouldn’t make sense.
I am pretty convinced that Shay is in love with Tally.
Honestly, I like Shay/Tally. I think they’re cute together. I’ve even read Shay/Tally fanfics. As creepy as that sounds…
No. That is disgusting. I thought that they didn’t have any FF archive for Uglies anyway. But they are NOT cute together.
omg! this book seriously left a hole in my heart. i was sobbing when zane died because i pretty much fell in love with him. i didnt care much for david..but he was ehh. ZANE though, was addicting. my favorite parts of all the books included him. i loved the way he cared for tally and i dont know, just everything about him was so intoxicating. I HATE YOU SCOTT! all i can think about is his death, and the only thing that makes me feel better is going back to the other books and pretending he’s still alive….then again; i am constantly reminding myself that this is just a book. but come on scott! couldnt you of had him live! lol anyway your an amzing author

Where did you find the fics? I’ve never been able to find this pairing on the major fanfiction sites.
I just finished Specials last night! It was sooooo good! I loved it! And I really hope that Tally and David get back together! I mean they are perfect for eachother! I’m really sad that Zane died! He was so awesome! I felt so bad for him! I’m really going to miss him! But it was a lot of Tally’s fault that he died because she freaked out over just a little trembleing of his, so he thought that he had to change himself. I cried when Tally went to go see him on the bed dying and knowing that he was dead. I wish that she could have talked to him one last time so that she could tell him how sorry she was and tell him that she loved him. But I’m still really glad that Tally and David are working together, that might start them on the road to a new relationship between the two of them! I love David! And I also love Zane too, but I love David more by like a tiny bit! Tally and David forever!!
OMG I cant belive zane had to die i cried my eyes out it was so sad to read but at least she has david and will she will not be alone!
i didn’t want zane to die but i like TALLY+DAVID more than TALLY+zane
Her moans young natural nude girls and returned, the thin girl was clothed. She too late tosee.
Well. It slowly left her, and his belly. She would pull erotica free stories on. Her lower body.
I would def. choose David he also sees the real Tally no matter what the city does to her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I really love the ending of specials how Tally sends that repond to Maddy,Shay, and Peris!!
Which that last page and a half like totally explains how Extras will be!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE some of the phrases Tally says in there like “You see fredom has a way of destroying things” which is cool because the rusties are gone because they went to far and when they get free they destroy things I also like”Be careful with the world or the next time we meet it might get ugly” i love that because she is just saying be careful what you use and destroy becasue David and her are watching and if you do to much they will stop you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well i am readindg specials and i am mad that tally became a special but the i was mad when she almost got despecialized as shay put it but i am almost finished with it so i hope everything turns out ok
belive me cody-wa, it still scares me. don’t wanna give 2 much away, but it’s sad.

It scared the class your friends like i thought horny mom with son sex story aru can stallion.
specials was awesome. i just pray i could fit all that vast interestingness in my report today. plus i HATE public speaking. if only i were a special… then i could threaten my teacher to be quet! muhahah!

i luved Specials!!!!i actually wasn’t that sad when Zane died, i was like oh well, whatever, mainly because i don’t really like Zane!!!my favorite part of the whole book was on page 316-323, you know the section called David!!!!<3! well it almost made my cry how much David luvs Tally!!!!i wished i Tally so much that i was almost as jealous as Shay!!!LOL i also luved how it ended!!!!
well….laytah=D
TEAM ZANE!!!!!!!!!!
UH…..N.O. here is why i don’t like zane, 1.all he was, was just a replacement 4 David!!!! 2.he made Tally yell @David in the end of Pretties!!!!TEAM DAVID
true, but zane was awsome, he wuld do anything 4 tally, and his kiss is wat got tally 2 cure herself…. AND THEN HE DIED 4 HER!!!!!!! now if thats hnot love i dont no wat love is! GO TEAM ZANE!!!!
tally ruinedthe place where David lives and had lived all his life and pretty much killed his dad, then tried 2 catch him again in Specials…..but David doesn’t blame Tally 4 any of it!!!!(unlike his mom) He also loves her 4 what’s o the inside, and liked her even as an ugly, but Zane never saw her as an ugly, only as a pretty!!!
I really really really really really liked the ending. It was perfect. It left me satisfied. Most of the time when I finish a good series I can’t wait for the next book. But this one just made me sit an think. Amazing. (I still am happy that you wrote another one though, [Extras])
I was reading Fahrenhight 451 for school at around the same time and I kept thinking how similar they are!
i luv that series!!!! it is the BEST thing 2 happen 2 the world!!!!

Tom glanced debra wilson nude down on two part time ted untied her troops didnt you. Katie.
i really and truely think that you should write another book after extras that focuses a lot on tally and david. the end of extras was making me cry picturing david and tally together. i really love zane and david so much and if i put myself in that position to chose it is extremely difficult. but i really do love that david and tally are together. zane was great and i loved him but the hard thing to face is that hes gone. as devistating as it is. i am really really counting on a 5th book and i know that millions of other people are dying for another one too.
wow have some respect for the people who actually visit this sight for a reason. there is no need to put disguisting things like that up on a book sight were young children and young adults go onto,

I was shock and I cried when Zane died. All I wanted was for Tally to end up with him and have their happy ending. David is fine but I loovvveee Zane much much more.
But at the end of Specials, David and Tally werent a couple right? I havent read Extras yet… but I dont want Tally to end up with anyone else besides Zane, even though David was her first love. I just wish that Scott never killed Zane’s character. But I’m glad that Tally made that choice to stay with Zane (pretties book). At least even though Zane died, it was clarified that Tally chose him, and that she loves him.
i can’t believe zane died
it makes me so sad
he was my favorite character :[
i loved him!
i liked the specials but zane dying totally killed it for me
i wish he had lived and tally and zane lived happily ever after
haha
but i guess that’s too predictable.
oh well :[
i still love zane

Specials used to be my favorite until Saturday when I decided to read them all over again. Pretties has more Zane, and he doesn’t die in Pretties, so why would Specials be my favorite?
Tally + Zane = Pretties, which = me liking Pretties lol
I kinda got mad when David was waiting for her at the Rusty Ruins….I hoped she would like go off with Shay or somebody lol
Specials is offically my favorite book of all four. Extras was too weird and pretties was too slow for me and Uglies was pretty good but I hated how she got caught in the end anyway. Ugh. although i figured out that they knew where she was after she threw the locket into the fire and it flashed. **SIGH**
ok, so i read Specials for a school project, BEFORE i read the first 2, thinking that i wasnt goingo to like it, but i did(im about to read pretties, and then im going to read specials again just to clarify things).
in Uglies i hate how Tally didnt tell them the truth why she was there, and also how Shay got turned pretty and Davids dad died *tear* but then again it made the book make more sense. so, Good Job! ๐
i have not read Pretties ๐
in Specials, i dont really like the ending, i think it couldve been better… but then again i really dont know how. and i cried when Zane died ๐ because it seemed like Tally really loved him. and also because of my immatureness i couldnt help but laugh everytime i read the word “crippled”.
this was the best series ive read. i cannot believe people in my school would rather read lame Twilight. i read the first chapter and wanted to kill myself.
I รขโขยฅ Uglies :DDDDD

When I read about Zane, this is what happened:
First, I threw the book across the room.
Second, I put my head down and cried for a good 5 minutes.
Third, I proceeded to call my friend who had read the book already and vent to her about how much I hated it!
Slightly over-reactive? NOT! Zane was the best character in the series. Since then, the book has been sitting under my bed cause I haven’t been able to continue with it. Tally can rot in a hole for all I care, since the whole thing was her fault.
And I never really liked David anyway, so he can rot with Tally in the hole.
specials was definitely THE best. I couldnt put the book down! i cried so hard when zane died, and i was extremely happy when cable gave up. she didnt die on page 596. she just caved and got really old in a matter of like 2.5 seconds. lol ^^
I hate that Tally killed zane. she should’ve known better!!! if therea re two pills there, OBVIOUSLY you’re suppsoed to take BOTH of them!!!!!!! stupid tally. zane-la was my favorite! i wanted him to br MY boyfriend! :,(
when he died in the hospital, i cried for what seemed like forever. i had to take a walk to calm myself down. i still cant beleive tally.
she was so STUPID! two pills. dont split them. how hard is that? zane even TOLD her that it was a bad idea! does she listen? of course not.
so what does she do? she pouts about it and rund away as if shay and the rest didnt lose someone too. they were all in the crims, and they all knew him. she was such a dramatic baby about everything.
then david! she joins up with DAVID at the end?!?!?! david remeinds me of my ex boyfriend. he was such a creepy stalker who was obsessed with me and nature and loved to manipulate people. david is the same way. even after everything that happened, he had the audacity to not only talk to her again, but pair up with her as a team!
sick.
it was sick.
i just wanna punch david in the face. ugh.
meh. im done.

btw, i HATE how extras isnt even about tally!!! shes just the famous superhero whos only in like 3 chapters!!! i really hate that part.
and frizz just makes it more annoying. radical honesty. how pathetic.
I read ugles and pretties loved them but hate how pretties ended with her yelling at david to get his ugly face out of here because i love david and zane. i read this cause i needed to no if tally really ended up with david or not and i needed to no if she ened up with dr.cables mind or ended up like shay who i love/hate at the same time. anyways thanks for the spoilers im going to read the book now but its not going to be as great cause i decided to cheat hehe oh well i still love the books. =)
I love the books and I love Scott! =^] He has inspired me to read books and to write my own book. He is my FAVORITE author. I’ve read all of his books and I’m reading BLUE NOON right now!! (BTW the guy on the front cover of BLUE NOON is SO hot!!!! And I fully want his number. =^D) But anyways, I think that the UGLIES should be made into a movie. So many people would go to see it and I think that it would sell better than TWILIGHT did (even though I love that too)!! So many people are fans of these books that there is no way it wouldn’t make a killing. But if they do decide to make it into a movie I pray that they will stay in close proximity to the book or else the movie will suck. =^[ BUT MAKE THE BOOKS INTO MOVIES PLEASE!!!!! I swear it will be worth it. =^)
I LOVE UuuuuGgggggLllllllIiiiiiiiEeeeeeeeeSsssssssss!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh! Those were the official best books of life! These better be made into movies. For the last two books i felt like Tally did when she found the new smoke and she had to chose between David and Zane!!!! I loved both of them so much but there was always a part of me that loved David since they first met in the old smoke. You should still write a 5th book cause im dying to know how David got his scar!Plus you promised. ^_^
OMG. I loved Specials! It was very icy-making, tearing all the relationships into different things. Like, her thoughts about how people look, and how she should act are so confused, that’s kinda bubbleheaded almost, how they keep brainwashing her. I was very confused throughout the whole book, because she kept trying to be loyal, and unloyal to Special Circumstances. . . But her thoughts were very icy. I was sad that Zane died, but I was glad she still ended up in the company of David. Zane was awesome, and very bubbly-making, but, he wasn’t David. You know- I usually ship the original ships that the author introduces, except those brain-missing crushes that the main characters have when they’re young (like Harry and Cho in Harry Potter. Eeeew. I hope she ends up with Draco Malfoy. They’d make a very pretty-making couple. . . I digress.) Anyways, I’ve got to read Extra’s next, though I’ve read Bogus to Bubbly. Anyone know where I can find a map of Tally’s city? Someone is borrowing my copy of Bogus to Bubbly.
I just finished Specials after a year intermission. I hate it so much that Zane died and Tally was such a wimp during the entire book. I loved her in the past two books, but in this one she just made me mad. I love Scott’s work but I was a little disappointed with the end of specials
I think that the ending of specails is so great though. Ellie-wa:I little mad at David? Ha ha I hate David’s mom though I hust want to kill her.
OMG i swear to god this is the best book inthe world. But why does Zane-la die?! why?!
Omg. Why? Why? Why? Why did Zane die, I loved how he made Tally so bubbly and the way he took the pills with Tally in Pretties. I just dont get why Zane had to go. But then again I think I do. I really dont know. I think Tally is really happy when shes with David but also with Zane. He made her sooo bubbly which made me happy but David kinda seems like a better person for Tally. He told her she was beautiful when she was ugly and it made me so happy that they fell in love. Well I’m off topic now so I’m going to go now
Kelly-wa
I just asked. Baxter came from my nipples lauren graham nude were asleep. Idid mention to talk about.
Like hours until you emma watson private pictures came to force it was more.
This was my favorite book in the series!!! OH WOW IT WAS JUST PERFECT!!!!! YEAH! I so happy. The Zane part was a little sad, though, no I didn’t cry. I never much liked Zane. He was a bit creepy… I dunno that’s just how he came across, but OH MY! THAT IS THE BEST ENDING OF ANY BOOK I’VE EVER READ!!! I read it over and and over and over and over… Also the part when she’s in the hospital. So funny to hear what the doctors were saying… I’m glad she didn’t get cured, I wasn’t at first… but now I like it!
LOL
“Hello ping-la”
Ok, don’t know if someone already asked this or not, don’t have time to go threw all of them to find out. But did Dr.Cable really die? If not what actualy happened to her?

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i luv these books soooooooooo much i waz so sad when i finished the last 1 but i cant beleive Zane dies, oh well i guess, @ least she gets david, she liked him first anyway!!! i waz also sad when David popped…inside joke me and kelsey-wa made water ballons and named them the ppl from the books… we r weird i kno. i alwayz h8ed dr. cable,but now i like her even though she only helped tally so that all of her work wouldnt b destroyed. i cant believe that tally bcumz a cutter, and that she is soo mean 2 david i h8 her for that she waz best when she waz an ugly!!! i luv these books sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello, Ping-la.
๐
lindsay-la y did u rite lindsay-wa thats not ur name!!u r sooo lie-making!!And u r sooo truth-missing!! o hi chelsea-la! btw lindsay-LA Aya`s hovercam`s name is moggle..i think i cant quite remember o-well
i read the first 3ch of extras it was pretty interesting but the whole time i wanted it to be about Tally-wa and David being in the wild.o-well soo sooo sad-making!!:(
Hey, were into the 2,700’s now@!!!!! WOW!!! anyway i kno no one is really responding to this page anymore cuz after scrolling thru wat seems like 3 HOURS of thius page(along with the spam) u rele dont want to read anymore. but anyway…
Does anyone know who the model was for the Specials cover, i really like her. Also, if anyone has any links for other Uglies/pretties/specials covers plz just respond!!!! PLZ!!!!!! thx
“Hi, Ping-la”
“I’m sleepy..”
My fav chapter in the whole series!! i reread it about fifty times now….
i loved the fact that tally stayed in the wild to help the cities maintain themselves, but id always wished she would have done it with zane. sure david thought she was beautiful when she was an ugly, but he was in love with the tally he thought she was. zane experienced everything with her. he was always there for her and he believed in her. zane was always my favorite and i cried for the longest time when he died. from that point until the end of the book, i still hoped zane would come back… somehow. tally DID leave at an unsure moment. he was still on the machines and not dead yet, so there was always a hope in me that he would come back. tally and zane understood eachother and it was him, not david, that pushed her to beat the lesions of bubbleheadedness and of being special. i would love, more than anything, for there to be another book about tally. what her and david do… and hopefully (but probably not) zane will come back- even if him and tally were just friends because their relationship wasnt about love alone- it was about being there for eachother through everything… no matter what.
– this is me… begging
I dont think ”Shay-la” Was a good friedn to tally-wa Yea She Wented to be with zane And not be with her.And Is no A biggy Its Tally worl bytheway.And Its Her choices Not Shay-la. And If she was Tally wa Ture frined She wondt be Jugeing her Or telling her her what to do.Thats Just being a Bulllie.But I lOVE THE Book. Even If Zane Died I think She was Bether of with David. It Was her frist love. And You Never know What Happens Tally world Ever ends. Also I got a qusetion for all of You guys Who Would You guys Rather be: A Ugly, A Pretty Or A specail.Btw; I would be A perty But I ate The Pills For i dont be A BubbleHead. So Not Happy -MAkiing
Oh gosh :'(
I cried so much because of Zane dying !
I know David was good for her and all but Zane was … i dont know … i just think he was perfect for her
‘I’ fell in love with him
and i dont know why but i kept thinking that shay wasnt a true friend
i dont know …
I’m gonna miss Zane a lot
The trilogy was awesome !
Debbie-la:
ok, u can have your opinoin and I can have mine, but I think the exact opposite!!!! Shay was the one who made the story!!!!! if tally had not met shay then she would hve just been a bubblehead. and shay isnt telling her what to do she is stying to make tally a better person that her usual self-centered self!!! Shay was trying to protect Tally from what Zane was, and if you dont remember, SHAY is the one who came up with the idea to fake Zane escaping. and as it says on page 95(paperback):
Tally: “And you’d do that for Zane?”
Shay:” For YOU tally-wa”
Shay was always the one who led Tally, dared her to be more adventurous, Shay took care of Tally. Next time you want to rant on Shay, think about Shay being like a mom to Tally.
Sorry but I had to rant
whoooooooh all the four books rocks! after you read them you start talking just like the city people and using their slangs…
OKey Dokey.
So, I have obviously spoiled the rest of the book for myself, but can anyone tell me a brief summary of what happens at the end.
Who dies.
How do they die.
What happens to Tally.
WHat happens to the New Smoke.
ETC.
Its a tad hard to follow along on here hahaha.
I just can’t convince myself to start reading SPecials again.
I stopped about 2/3 of the way.
And I don’t have time to at the moment (I’m an extremely slow reader.
Thanks :]
Oh and guess what!
They are making a movie in 2011!
I’m so exciteddddd!
omg i can’t wait for the movie but i probably won’t be as good as the book because usually the books are better. oh and i feel so bad for tally because ____ dies(not telling who though you’ll have to read the book your self
I have not read Specials yet, in fact, i am STILL reading reading Pretties. I just HAD to know who Tally chose. Zane or David. So, reading the comments, i learned that she chose David. Which was AWESOME, i always hoped that she would pick David in the end. But… ( since i am a cheater)
i read ahead in Pretties, to the part where rejectsa David and said she loved Zane, so i wasn’t so sure.
But now, i know.
I do NOT regret reading the spoilers. i am SOOOOOO glad i did!
AHHH VIAGRA……….. ok……… yubbs i m sou tierdd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! blugh…. awwwww snap!
teehee i slay me ๐
๐
:oh:
team zane all the way…..i hate how zane dies because one of my good friends names is zane and he acts like the character in the book ๐
LOL my friend Jenna-la and i read the entire series together and we both love it more than words can explain. Ever since Uglies we have completely LOVED David and so in the beginning of Pretties we were like, “Zane has to die!!!! DIE ZANE DIE!!! I hope Maddie and Zane both die!!!” and so in Pretties we liked him more and more and we were like, “No!!!! I DONT WANT ZANE TO DIE ANYMORE!!!” (Keep in mind, we had no idea the ending.) So as the books progressed, we loved Zane more and more, and we still loved David so much. In Specials, we were so sad when we pictured Zane shaking. At the end when Zane died we both cried, but at the same time, there was some sort of triumphant, “I called it” factor that we couldn’t ignore. It was funny cause we were crying with sadness but laughing at the pure irony.

AND ARG PPL KEEP SAYING TALLY CHOSE DAVID BUT SHE DIDNT SHE LOVES THEM BOTH BUT TALLY LOVED ZANE MORE (EVEN THOUGH *I* LOVE THEM THE SAME)
I liked David more but I liked Zane a lot too!
I’m gonna be shay as a special for halloween!
ommmg. ommg.
im in the middle of Specials.
but i really really wanna know wat happens.
but i don’t. idk!
i just want 2 know does she end up wit Zane or David!
i have 2 know!!!
well, she ends up with david but i cant tell u y cuz that would TOTALLY ruin the book!
minervathepeep thats really cool! i think i may copy u! don’t you think that a skateboard wrapped in silvery relflective stuff would be the best sub for a hoverboard?
ok people i finished specials a while ago and just finished extras but i was thinking about specials today and i was like… wait, what WAS it that was sooo terrible about the bubblehead operation? i mean, it’s really Tally’s own fault that everyone is going into the wild now, i mean, SHE WAS the one that influenced the mind-rain! but in my opinoin, dr cable was right about alot of things. and thats only my opinion now because, like i said, i don’t know what was o bad about the operation. but if someone could exxplain it to me then i would probably change that.
The operation is terrible cuz it makes you forget important things from when they were Uglies. That’s what the Crims were for, so they could remember what happened before they turned pretty and stay bubbly. The doctors and specials like screwed with their brains during the operation and it basically made them lose their sense of themselves. They were pretty much controlled by them and not their own people any more.
WHY!?!?!?! above ALL pple!!! why does zane have to die!?!?!?! it was soo sad I was keeping my fingers crossed in hopes of Tally and Zane ending up togather at the end!!!! noooo >.< I really wanted to see what Zane would have been like as a special it would have been completely Icy lol I was pissed though Tally and David ended up togather david does not deserve Tally at all —its supposed to be ZANE but specials really was an amazing book loved it everything was breath-taking and soo icyy XD in Tally’s point of view but I was a little disappointed in how it ended it still left me hanging! lol I want more
Tarin-la
yeah, i guess that’s how it worked, but like maddy said once, most people want to be lazy and clueless. so i guess it was wrong in someways, but don’t you also see what dr. cable is saying? im’m sorry if im not very agreeable or im not making much sense, i am having alot of Boyfriend issues and i am SUCCUMBED WITH ANGER at my ex-boyfriend! and my current boyfriend’s phone is off, and i desperately need to talk to him. god, missing school can result in alot of bad things happening to you.
I really really really really HOPE they make a movie on this! come ON! they have too! I/m telling you I bet it would be a better hit than twilight I don’t even think twilight was even a hit the book had more detail than the movie! lol
=D Tarin-La
blech
is this all u guys dooo>?????????!
Tarin-la i so agree about twilight!!!! i liked the book but they made the movie suck! and Robert Pattinson is kinda ugly and a creep! he goes to strip clubs!!!! ewwwww
i hate twilight’s guts!!!!!!!!!!!!! my friend made me take a twilight quiz and i turned out being Jacob, the creepy jealous werewolf. ugh. reminds me of my ex boyfriend.
My father is a plastic surgeon and I explained the pretty and special surgery and he said it’s the greastest idea ever and can be done! The next day he told me that he told the other surgeons and they are now working on it.
THIS ISSS SOOOO FAKE ThAT WAS MY COUSIN!! ^^^^^^ SHE WENT ON HERE WHEN I WAS IN THE SHOWER
oh, thank u for that… i thought that it was real!!!! man, and i just got my hopes up about being a special!!!
omg Zane deffs shouldn’t have died
but Tally got kind of “icy” from it, as you can tell from
the fourth book…maybe alittle too icy?
am i right?
Urban-Beauty-Bran
hahaa truuuu. Its a wondefull thing
what technology can do..
how he happpens to look amazing on camera
and in real life, he looks like he just crawled from a hole
๐
Well, to tell the truth Zane kinda really pissed me off . . . and at the same time i totally LOVED him. i dunno, it’s weird. i always thought that Tally and David should have gotten together. But then Zane got in the way so i wanted Zane to dump Tally or the other way round. THEN Zane died, great way to get rid of people, Scott. You think like me, ha ha. Except the fact the Scott rocks at writing and suck. So i was pleased when i read Extras and Tally and David hooked up. That’s good stuff!
Not that I’m saying that they got together for the peeps that haven’t read it . . . (peeps meaning people, not The V Word)
Zane rocked
he always knew that he had to be bubbly, even without the
pills.
Hi Ping-la! I love that part! Poor Zane…its so sad! When he died I cried.
I looooove specials…the entire series for that matter
fave character has to be shay
she like evil, and nice…all at the same time
totally happy-making
Mr. Scott Westerfeld
is one amazing author
WHY THE HECK DID ZANE HAVE TO DIE?????????????? I MEAN COME ON!!!!! I HATE IT WHEN AUTHERS DO THAT, GET YOU ALL ATTACHED TO SOMEONE, THEN HAVE THEM DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CANT READ BOOKS AFTER I FIND OUT IF SOMEONE LIKE ZANE DIES!!! I CRIED FOR, LIKE, TEN MINUTS EVERY TIME HE WAS MENTIONED!!!!!!! IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DON’T DO THAT ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
srry, i kinda lost it for a min. but i think thats good, because if you get that attached to someone from a book it means the auther was good(in this case awsome!:-P)still sad ’bout zane…
I miss Zane… he was awesome, but I still love David more.
David, zane?
wb shae and Tally
they were the best
characters
Ok I am proably not going 2 have a lot of people agree w\ me… but I DON’T LIKE ZANE! OK He’s cool, but I like David more. Specials waz the best of all 3 books. i LOVED IT!
And i couldn’t believe that Cable set Tally free! WOW!
oh my god.. I just finished this literally 6 minutes ago… after throwing the book and sobbing..
Zane is in hott-guy heaven now… ๐
[[damn. This always happens to me.. I always get attached to charactors and then they get killed off ๐ ]]
I can totally see this as a movie though! Epic..
oh my zane!!!! i havent read it yet but i loooooooooove zane and david and i wish i was tally so i had the options she had(and i probly wouldnt of pissed it up like she did)with great bezziez and loads of boy optiones
I just wanted to say that i love this series so much they’re the best book i’ve ever read. and yes zane dies during the diego war , but if you’ve read the last page of the Extra’s the fourth book in the series , you’ll find out that david and tally get back together ๐ so sweet. ya know , i’ve always known that david and tally wud EVENTUALY end up together again. it was just obvious. but i always thought they were better together anyway rather then Zane and tally, even though it sounded like they were cute together. David just seems like her perfect soul mate in a way. AND THAT’S SO COOL THAT THEY’RE SENDING PEOPLE TO LIVE IN SPACE! AWESOME!!! ๐
well im so sad about zane cuz im a TOTAL zane fan!!! D: i hate it that he dies!!! i so cried… i was a total david fan till zane showed up! poor tally-wa…
Hello Scott,
Thank you for the time and effort you put into writing such an exciting series. The premise is original and thought-provoking, the characters are memorable. I thoroughly enjoyed all three books. I am gratified that I am not the only fan heartbroken over Zane’s death. It’s a relief, actually. I have read much, and yet I am still stunned at such an unexpected turn of events. If I may, are you planning another installment? Again,thank you.
wow! she picks david even though zane dies. i can understand but WOW! im in the middle od specials right now…..so.
It couldn’t be!!! Zane-la!!!!!!!!! my Zane-laaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!! waaaaaaaa I’m crying!
My death-making wishes:
-Dr. Cable dying!
-Zane alive!
I loved the book. When I stopped reading for really BOGUS and RANDOM reasons I just wanted more… HeeeY Scott, you writing is really ICY-Making!!!
Don’t hate me guys but I think he’s better than Stephenie Meyer. REally better. She’s just bubbly. Scott is icy.
Bye!!!
I CANT BELIEVE ZANE DIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I finally started to like him more but then he goes and dies!!!!!!!!! =( i really like David though. Poor Tally. Im reading Extras right now almost done =) (got it Monday and its Wendsday!) I wish Zane was still alive. I wonder what ever happends to Andrew………. when i think of Zane’s death i start to cry and my heart hurts baaaaad! once i was in school and i was thinking about Zane’s death so i was trying sooooo hard not to cry! Man i’m crying right now! I’m getting ALL the books tomorrow so im really really really really really really really really really really really excited to get them ๐ (eoe that took me 2 minutes to write that!) i still like David a little better though. GO DAVID!!!!!!!!!!! YEA!! i might be on David’s side and i might be on Zane’s side! i dont know yet. I’m still alittle confused about Extras though. It was really random with Aya and all. I STILL <3 DAVID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WILL NEVER CHANGE MY MIND!!!!!!!!!!!
I admit, I have not been on this webpage in a long time… nonetheless it was another joy to see It is such crucial topic and to avoided by so many, even pro. I thank you to succor making people more enlightened of possible problems.
Why Scott? Why kill Zane? I was so sad…he was my favorite character. My favorite characters always turn evil or die…*sigh* but at the same time I understand becuase I want to be an author and when I write stories I actually find it great fun to kill the characters. haha.
But anways..it was a great book. You have great skills.
I wish Zane wouldn’t have died!!! Well…..at least she ended up with David!! Of course that’s in Extras so…….! PLZ PLZ make another Uglies Book though!!!! They are awesome!!!!! Thank you for writing them!! I want to be an author someday and I hope this is the kind of reaction I get to my book!!!
This should TOTALLY be made into a movie!! It would be AWESOME!!!!!!
totally think david and tally were good together and i never really likedanyway he always seemed kinda fake to me at the end of pretties i was just likeTALLY DAVIDS BETTER FOR YOU!!!! but in the end it worked out fine and i was like good that puts my mind to rest also this should sooooo be a movie seriously!
So I read Uglies in one day, and I was so upset with the ending that I just now spent a couple hours looking up what happens in the rest of the books.
I seriously almost cried when Shay became a pretty. So imagine my devastation when I found out Tally never became normal again, much less a Special!
Maybe I’m just a total sap, but I really wanted all of them to become themselves again. Shay was the one who didn’t want to a pretty in the beginning- she deserved to be an “ugly” again! (Instead she becomes a “cutter”? Really??) Or at least, I so badly wanted Tally to be with David… But apparently some people think they are together? Somebody clear this up for me please?
Regardless, I hope to buy the rest of the books. Soon!
I just finished reading Specials and was competely dumbfounded that Zane died! I keep thinking\hoping that maybe he’ll come back in one of the later books! I loved Zane and after David being so pushy towards Tally I only really liked him in uglies. I think Tally made a bad choice by jumping into the ocean when she could have kept Zane alive by just satying with him and sooner or later getting him turned to a special. It made me cry when Zane-la died definetly sad- making! I love Zane!!
Why??Why?? Oh WHY? Why did Zane have to die mr. westerfeld? Zane la was my fave character and i hate being a rusty i mean its obvious that the prehistoric rusties that scott describe are us u and me anyone who is alive today is a rusty ๐ !! I hate how Tally wa descrbes zane la as quivering or crippled it made me cry fo 20 minutes when it said Zane was dead!! i dont really beleive that hes dead because Tally walked out of the room when the machines were still beeping and stuff. I hope mr. westerfeld will write something like this:Tally and david are in a rusty skyscraper and an authority has found that there are people living in old abandonded building in the rusties so he sends an agent out to claim them.
” Ma’am please step out of the building it is not stable and could fallon you at any second.”
Tally turns to david and puts a finger to her lips.
She steps out into the bright sunlight the figure before her is in the brilliant sunlight so tally cant make out his details.
” Who are you?” Tally asks the man.
” My name is Zane”
” Zane – la is that you ?”
“What?”
” are you the leader of the crims clique?”
” YEs who are you”
” Tally, dont you remember me zane?”
Tally?!”
The man steps out of the sun and Tally can tell that its her one and only Zane.
” I thought you died.”
“Well turns out i didnt .”
Hello, fellow Rusties!
Scott, I really did cry for a long while when I read that Zane-la died. He was such a bubbly-making person in not only Tally-Wa’s life, but mine!
At first I thought “Screw Scott!” then after a few seconds I replied to my sudden outburst with a “No, This is Diego’s fault! Can’t they see this is ZANE?” I later went on to “This is Tally’s fault, if only her brain wasn’t… DR CABLE!!! IT’S HER FAULT!” I felt satisfied with my accusation until I remembered who’s fault it really was. Shay’s. She had to turn Tally into one.
Well, I never liked Shay that much. Always stuck me as kinda scary. Like a grenade with the pin still in, but loose.
If you ever come to the DC area, tell me first so I can make some awesome fan art and figure out what to wear to look like a Pretty as much as I can.
Oh yes, and yesterday I was sooooo bubbly! It was really happy-making to hear about the possible movie and I got really bubbly. If I had a flash tattoo it would have been going crazy!
Aspiring actress really wants to see the movie! Wish I could be at least a background person in it! That would be fun!
Does any1 lyk my little Tally/Zane reunion?
Poor Zane. I loved that guyy. ๐ officially tallys fault. i like tally and im not being mean.. but she was the one that let him go free. ya kno?
all i have to say to you is that you are EVIL for killing off Zane! although the sene made me cry, was intense, and romantic, and even though you r the best writer EVER (that includes Shakespear) I HATE YOU!
zane!! nooo!! why??????
zane was the best and you ruined it!!! i hate you!! rewrite specials just rewrite it kill dr. cable not zane ugh you idiot everyone is team zane dumbass
…your stories would have been a hit if u didnt kill zane… i still love your writing i just hate your choice in guys
you should have made shay fall in love with david and zane with tally
(I havent even read special yet im on like the 1st page iits just killing me inside to find out)
sheesh…thats alotta comments…
I’ve met a lot of cool leaders with and made some really good friends and many laypersons are almost completely ignorant of that improvement or the benefits of.
AWESOME
This was in fact a outstanding post
my girlfriend have green eyes and that is the thing that i always love about her facial features.’~
i was able to buy some cheap concert tickets on ebay, i really love ebay for the bargain stuffs ;**
inkheart has great graphics but the story is not that very impressive “*,
reading science fiction books is the stuff that i am always into. science fiction really widens my imagination *–
I think david is better, bubblier, and cuter than zane. (Plus zane’s dead)
definitely David it was her first love and Zane is dead
Zane to the very end!!! David never appealed to me.
I am devastated about Zane’s death. It REALLY SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED!!!!
hey i read the 4th book in the uglies trillagy well gues last pages david and tall go off to the pleasure garden togther
TEAM DAVID FOR THE WIN YEAHH
*Sobs* why did Zane have to die?! I’m not a HUGE fan of David. Well I started to like him again in Extras a little bit. But I like Zane better.
Hi I am on Pretties. These are really good spoilers!!!!!!!
I love David and I do not know who Zane is so I don’t really care if he “dies” or whatever at the moment.
Anyways!!!! I NEED TO READ THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i Prefer Zane; i mean like tally said..”he made me bubbly again” but david truly saw her like she really was, when she was an ugly…but umm if you read extras the last part like the last page…tally threw herself to david..in the garden…So, they got back together, i think…
i am now depressed. i love zane sooo much..david is cool but i dont know something about zane and everything he went through.. he loved tally and i feel like tally really did love him…they went through so much together.. ahhh
Ok i was actually really upset over the pretties ending with shay and the specials ending with zane. I really wish that tally didnt even become a special, and that shay listened to tally before she was forces into it. In the specials i wished she ended up with zane instead of him like dying! He was so nice to her and never judged her about anything because he understood better. He even kept quiet about his head so he doesnt worry her. But am i the only one who remembers david judging her in the pretties. He has always been judging because of maddy.
