But since I”m sick and staying home today, I finally have the time to update my book "life".
So, I just finished this book in the morning, all the details are still ringing in my head(which is gooD).
The name "Tally Youngblood", the main character, was the first thing interested me in this book. The word youngblood reminded me so many things. But the story did more.
"Tally is about to turn sixteen, and she can”t wait. Not for her license----- for turning pretty. In Tally”s world, your sixteenth birthday brings an operation that turns you from a repellent ugly into a stunningly attractive pretty and catapults you into a high-tech paradise where your only job is to have a really great time. In just a few weeks Tally will be there.
But Tally”s new friend Shay isn”t sure she wants to be pretty. She”d rather risk life on the outside. When Shay runs away, Tally learns about a whole new side of the pretty world---- and it isn”t very pretty. The authorities offer Tally the worst choice she can imagine: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn pretty at all. The choice Tally makes changes her world forever."
While reading this book, I kept having a weird phrase in my head:"to be or not to be". Is friendship more important than owning a pretty face? Is it the outside that really matters? Is freedom of having your independent ideas that important? ........ Tally sure struggled through lots of conflicts. Even though this is a science fiction, but I felt as I was Tally, making lots of choices that could change your life forever. 14, such a sensitive age, will I ever betray my friends or lover for something not important at all? That is something to think about........
