The Uglies and The Pretties

The Uglies
 
In the first book of The Uglies series (This link looks like the one for Leviathan but isn't.),  Tally is a teenager who is almost 16. In Tally's community at the age 16 you become (as they call it) pretty.Tally's friend had just become a pretty and she felt lonely. She decided to go across the river separating the two towns and see Peris (her friend).He was at a formal party.She had to sneak by everyone she saw until she found a pig mask.If you get caught in New Pretty Town and you were not pretty you would be in serious trouble.When Tally finds him he is entering a elevator. He tells the elevator to hold and they talk (this is a futuristic book so they have AIs everywhere even in the buildings).To Tally Peris seems weird and different.She escapes the party by grabbing a bungee jacket (which uses hover technology) and jumps off the roof.She meets someone while hiding from the pretty wardens.She meets Shay. Shay uses a tricked hover board to fly across the river. Learn more about these new friends when you read the book.
