Sinopse

In a world of extreme perfection, being normal is ugly. In this first volume of the New York Times bestselling series, with a new graphic design, Tally Youngblood can't wait to turn sixteen and finally get the surgery to become the perfect version of herself. But as she counts down the days to this long-awaited moment, she discovers that the rebels may be closer than she imagines.

Centuries after the destruction of industrial civilization in an ecological apocalypse, humanity lives in bubble cities surrounded by wilderness. There, Tally Youngblood is ugly. No, that doesn't mean she's some freak of nature. No. She's just not 16 yet.

In Vila Feia, teenagers are confined to dormitories until their 16th birthday, when they receive a great gift from the government: plastic surgery unlike anything seen before in human history. Their features are perfectly corrected, their skin is replaced with something else, free of imperfections and blemishes, their bones are replaced with an artificial alloy, lighter and stronger, their eyes become larger, and their lips become fuller and more voluminous. In short, at 16, everyone is perfect.

Tally can't wait for her birthday. After the operation, she'll finally leave Uglyville and move to New Pretty Town, where the pretties live, drink, skydive, fly on their magnetic hoverboards, and have fun. One night, she meets Shay, an ugly girl who isn't at all excited about turning 16. On the contrary: Shay plans to escape the city limits and join the Smoke, a group of outlaws who survive by scavenging.

To Tally, this is crazy. But when her friend disappears, the Specials, the highest authority in this new world, propose a deal to Tally: join them against the Smokies or remain ugly forever. Tally, however, becomes embroiled in a conspiracy and discovers that behind all her perfection lies a terrible secret. Her choice will change the world forever.
