Specials, by Scott Westerfield

Specials by Scott Westerfield is the third book in the Uglies series. This book, like the others, picks up where Pretties, the second book, left off. But now, Tally is Special, a Cutter to be more specific. Shay has kept her promise and made Tally a cruel, killing machine. The Cutters had one goal: track down all the New Smokies and destroy the cure. But when the Smokies fight harder than usual, they realize that the city, or some city, must be helping them. Where will they end up when they follow Zane and other Pretties to the New Smoke?

Having read the first two books in the series, I already expected a spectacular book. And of course, it was. Aside from my liking of Westerfield's writing style, the plot is exciting and unexpected. Not only that, but Scott Westerfield does an amazing job of describing every event and thought that goes through Tally's head. I would recommend this book mainly to teen girls, because they might rind the idea of the book interesting. If you liked the first two books, you should definitely read this one!
