OMG you've read it too! So cool!!
DON"T JUDGE IT BY ITS COVER!!! I almost did, until I read a chp. or so.The cover makes it sound all boring, about people who get surgery to look all perfect, but the book is so much better.
So, two friends are about to be made "pretty." One is really excited, the other one thinks she might not want to be turned pretty and stay "ugly" all her life.
So their 16th birthday is coming, the day they'll turn pretty. The doubtful one runs away, to go to what she claims is the "Smoke"-kinda like Atlantis-maybe mythical, maybe not. Then, the police-ish people come to get the excited one. They offer her 2 choices: track down and betray her friend, or never get to have "pretty" surgery, in a world where being pretty=having a future.
What happens is totally unexpected but chilling. Friendship vs. future. Dooming Smoke vs. being at the bottom of society.
And best of all, it's in a trilogy so you can read more!!!
