In part 3, I really liked the action. We start part 3 and the special circumstance is the smoke. After she tries to escape and we get to read this action movie chase. I really thought she was going to escape, but unfortunately no. I also liked when they escape the special circumstance on the Hoverboards. I like when Tally found David in the tunnel, I was really surprised. I didn't like the part when Shay got the operation. I was really  hoping that she was going to fight and not give up. Through out the book, we see Shay as the rebellious, courageous and fearless character and I thought she was going to fight.

Tally---shay
The characters of Tally and Shay are a lot alike and different at the same time. At the beginning of the book, their idea of getting the operation is clearly a lot different. Tally wanted to get the operation so bad she was ready to give up her best friends. On the contrary, Shay at the beginning of the book, she was ready to escape and to run away. After, their idea changed because of their experience. Tally didn't want the operation that she dreamed, because of the effects on the brain and because she now cared for somebody; like David for example. She now saw life different and she wanted to fight and not give up. Shay on the contrary, she was fed up, she  gave up. By getting the operation, she thought that all of her problems would go away and they did. At the beginning of the book, she was against the idea of getting lied to be control.

After telling the warden that I wanted the surgery to become pretty, he brought me to a hospital where I sat in the waiting room. Approximately one hour later, two doctors introduced themselves and they brought me to a separate and isolated room down the hall. They showed me images of what I would look like after the surgery. I couldn't recognize the girl in the photo but I decided anyways to go through the surgery because I still felt extremely guilty for what I did to Shay.

I woke up in a hospital bed surrounded by others. I recognized my parents. They look relieved but I didn't know why. Everyone in the room was pretty and they all welcomed me to the city which I was going to live in. They organized a party. The pretties were all joyful except for me, I was sad and I also felt like something was missing but I couldn't identified what it was exactly. I asked myself "Why is it that I'm sad for? What am I missing?".  At the party, someone pulled me outside. It was a man a little older than me. I've never seen him before but it felt like I knew him for a while. He explained to me who I was before the surgery and how we knew each other but I didn't believe him. I ran off and decided to hide in a building. But wherever I hid, he always found me. "What if he was right", I asked myself. I decided I was going to believe him. We both ran out of pretty town and he introduced me to other escapees. I felt like I belonged there, but I didn't know why. I decided I was going to stay there and live the rest of my life.

I wouldn't recommend this book to my peers because most of my peers are not self-conscious about their looks. I believe that when reading a book, you have to able to relate to the characters. In the novel, the initial conflict is about not accepting yourself for who you are. I believe that when reading a book, especially in the beginning, you have to be able to relate to the character, and the fact that Shay lives in a society where the beautiful and ugly citizens are separated, it is really hard to connect with the characters.

The antagonist in the novel are Special Circumstances, more specifically Dr. Cable. They are the antagonist because they are allowing the people who don't want to get the pretty surgery(the smokies) live in peace outside the city. The people who live outside the city are escapees and these escapees know that by getting the pretty surgery, you get brain lesions that make you dumber and happier. Dr. Cable doesn't want people to know this so he continuously hunts down the escapees to make sure the secret doesn't reach the Uglies town. Dr. Cable prefers that people live less intelligent but happier. The reason why we can assume this is because he sends Tally as a spy to discover where the escapees are hiding and living so he can bring them back.

Conflict 1 : Man vs Self
Throughout the novel, Tally does not respect herself for who she is and she isn't confident in her looks. She puts too much pressure on herself and she also puts too much pressure on things that she does not have control over. Throughout the novel, her friends Shay and David are the first people who tell her that she is beautiful and that helps Tally to start respecting herself. Especially Shay and the beginning of the book when she is discussing beauty with Tally and she tries convincing Tally that she does not need the surgery to become pretty because she already is.

Conflict 2 : Man vs Society
Even though Tally was in the Smoke with the other escapees, she still believed that having the surgery to become pretty would be beneficial, but when she found out that becoming pretty meant that you had brain lesions because of the surgery, she went against society (new pretty town and special circumstances). When she went in the smoke at first, she came as a spy because she believed having the surgery was the right thing to do, but when she found out the secret from David's parents, she went against society opinion's and she decided to quit being a spy, in other words, she changed her mind.

My least favorite in the novel is Dr.Cable. His role is leader of Special Circumstances and the main person directing the the operations to take down the smoke. He is my least favorite character because he believes that by making the uglies become pretties and less intelligent that he is improving their life (in chapter 31 we learn this from David's parents who use to be surgeons and they found out that the pretties have brain lesions while they were experiencing). I do not believe that my making people less intelligent that you are improving their life because they don't get to experience life to its fullest.

Shay Is my favorite character because she is a rebel and she sees beyond. She is always doubting the system. She is very skeptical. She's my favorite because she is different. She helped Tally during her most difficult moments. Their relationship with David is confusing, but I think they all handle it maturely. She's just like Julien, she is always questioning the authority. She is also very clever, for example, when she left the clues to find the smoke to Tally. I don't like that she got the operation, but I understand her choice.

Theme 1: Appearance
The novel revolves around this theme. The major problem for some and solution for others is the operation. Friendship is defined if you are pretty or not. For example, Peris didn't want to be best friend with Tally until she got her operation, but when they were ugly they were best friend. Appearance is everything in this book. I hope that one day we will not arrive to that situation.

Theme 2: Friendship
The novel is also revolving around this theme. At the beginning of the book, we can see how much Tally was hurt when Peris didn't want to be his friend because she wasn't "pretty" Furthermore, friendship in this book also means betrayal. The tally was confronted by the special circumstance. She was expected to lie to her best friends and she decided to not do it. She fell in love with David and she changed her mind. David's love also brought a lot of problems and fights between Tally and Shay. In this book, some friendships are really superficial and some will make you go against the secret police.

Many escapees were caught a couple days ago by Special Circumstances in a city called the Smoke. These escapees who were brought back to New Pretty Town were detained in Special Circumstances, a secured, guarded and isolated building,  but with the help of uncaptured escapees(David and Tally), they were able to escape and they brought with them the Special Circumstances Leader Dr.Cable. Two of the prisonners were old cosmetic surgeons here(Maddies and Az), unfortunately for the escapees, Az died due to the experiences they were running on him to make him forget about the fact that turning pretty gives you brain damage. The escapees are now running off to a new location where they will remain hiding.
