Sorry I haven’t been posting much. Specials is due next Tuesday, and I’ve been writing at a screaming pace. But the fact that I was in Uglies visualization mode made the following un-not-point-outable.
Those of you who’ve read Uglies may remember the roller coaster scene on pages 63-5. It’s all about how kids who ride hoverboards (personal flyers halfway in size between surf- and skateboards) use the rusting metal in an ancient roller coaster to assist their magnetic levitation to new heights.
If that sounds hard to visualize, dont’ worry. I just came across this Photoshopped image in a Fark contest on the subject of theme park fantasies, and am happy to see that somebody shares my insane hoverboard/rollercoaster vision.
For the rest of the images, click here.
Thank you so much for the image! Wow that really changed my whole perspective on the scene. Now I see how extremely frightening it must’ve been for Tally.
Oooh I can’t wait for Pretties! I really like David because he has a lot of real human qualities. His character isn’t just some totally out there imaginary guy. I like all the David and Tally parts!!! But I have no idea what his last name is. And if David doesn’t come back for Tally then Peris is completely cool too!!! Yay! Go David and Peris and Tally! Shay was so ditzy in the ending! It was soo funny I was laughing!
