Extras by Scott Westerfeld

My Rating: 4 stars

**If you haven’t read previous books, don’t read!**

This book was nothing like I expected. I thought it was going to be another book from Tally’s point of view where she goes through another surgery. But this book is from Aya Fuse’s point of view. Her world formed a few years after Tally Youngblood took down the uglies/pretties/specials system; it’s in a full blown cultural revival. Everything is different. “Kickers” spread the latest gossip, “surge monkeys” show off the latest style in exotic plastic surgery. Popularity rules; whoever gets the most talk wins. But Aya’s rank is so low, and she’s basically a total nobody, an Extra. But when she meets a clique of extreme girls, she finds the opportunity to go into a world she’s completely not ready for.
All in all, I really, really loved the Uglies series, and I thought this book was a perfect ending to the story.
