I just couldn't justify giving this book a higher rating, because the plot was very slow-moving and predictable, and the characters were flat. And some of it just didn't make sense. (

A tie-in graphic novel retelling the events of Uglies from Shay's perspective. A quick read, with some great pictures, including some fabulous hoverboarding! (

I read the Uglies series years ago, and I remember it being my favorite at the time, but there were characters and parts of the plot I'd forgotten about. I don't recommend reading this if you haven't read Uglies recently.
I also love manga, but I don't think the style worked for this story. A huge part of the novel is the focus on people's "flaws," but the art doesn't give a good sense of everyone's unique appearances. A different graphic style would've worked better. (

Having already read Uglies, I found very little of this to be unique, that was not explained in some way in the original series (which did it all in a better, more succinct way). Shay's character felt more like Tally in the beginning and that was frankly very annoying. There were basically no differences in their personalities other than Shay being a lot more annoying than Tally was. Besides that, the art for the characters made every action and movement extremely overly dramatic, and that made them seem like caricatures. Over all, this was somewhat pointless. (
