Uglies by Scott Westerfeld discussion

So...how did you like the ending?

When Tally says that she didn't kiss anyone since Zane died, I was all mad- I thought she was together with David! So I was glad that she finally "went off with him" at the end. That was nice. XD

But I wish it didn't stop there! I REALLY want to know if they go into orbit to live or not, and what happens if they do and/or don't!! OH WHY OH WHY DID WESTERFELD STOP THERE?!?! He NEEDS to write another one!!

One more thing- I think the Extra people are really creepy. Don't you? And I wonder, how did they get that way? Was it surgery?

yeah, surgery probably.
i liked the very ending!! it was cute! XD <3
but yeah, it would be cool if there was another one... i thought it ended after specials so when extras came out i was like, 'YAAAY!!!' so maybe westerfeld will just do that again.

maybe...he has to! i mean, he can't just leave us hanging like that...are they going to live in orbit or not?? and if they do, whats going to happen? if they dont, what will happen? GAH!!

i hope they don't go to live in orbit, but i want another book.
a girl told me in a bookstore that there was going to be thirty books, because that was what trilogy originally meant. i don't know if she was serious or making it up, it was just a random girl.

OMG!!!! omg allie you just sparked something in my memory!!

the dictation at the beginning of extras says "to everyone who wrote to me to reveal the SECRET DEFINITION OF TRILOGY!!!!" OMG! what if that means that the girl is RIGHT??

OMG!
yaya!
30 books?
dat's a lott of pressure on scott

I know!! But why else would he write that at the beginning??

wow. THIRTY??? that's like ridiculous!!! i mean i luv the series but it can't go on forever... XD

i know...so what else could he have meant for the extras dedication?

maybe he was just saying that he COULD write thirty books if he wanted to, and it was just an excuse to add on a fourth book.

i wish it was from tally's point of veiw at the end, so we could know for sure what happened. Like, we all think we know what happened, but still!


The warriors seires will have like 24 books this fall (I think i counted right.) So, it's possible.

That's true....

blaaah... i'm not really into those really really really long series... they get dull after a while, you know? at some point, the author HAS to run out of ideas.

I see what you mean...some of the ideas for the newest warriors books are reused. (and of course, the ultimate theme in about every other book: forbidden love. it gets annoying after awhile...)

i only read the first warriors book... it didn't hook me enough to make me read the rest of them. it was okay, but it kinda lacked a plot in my opinion, and the writing wasn't that great, and i found it annoying. idk. i don't really like a lot of talking-animal books. XD hahaha. forbidden love is a bit overused in like, ALL books. it works sometimes... yeah i guess i shouldn't be talking though. XD

lol, brigid. hmm..."i don't really like a lot of talking-animal books" teehee...*coughs*

lol i know what you mean, though. but seriously, in the warriors series, there's a forbidden love every few books. and they all end up the same way!! grr

true, yet im still addicted to the series. Ive read almost every book in that series. (-2)

Yup. Still, the backstories change a bit, so it's not too repetitive..........

Yeah...but I mean, after the first one, with Graystripe/Silverstream, it started to get pretty repetitive...although I really liked Feathertail/Crowfeather. *sigh* let me try to remember all of the forbidden loves...

Firestar/Spottedleaf (not really, but it would have been if she'd stayed alive)

Graystripe/Silverstream

Bluestar/Oakheart

Stormfur/Squirrelflight (he had feelings for her in the beginning of Moonrise)

Feathertail/Crowfeather

Leafpool/Crowfeather

Lionpaw/Heatherpaw

*sigh again* Am I missing anyone?

If she hadn't killed Feathertail, then there wouldn't be the Leafpool/Crowfeather problem! That would have solved a lot..........

Stormfur also liked Squirrelpaw in Midnight, I think.

Allie, you're right...

Morgan, I agree!! FEATHERTAIL SHOULD HAVE NEVER DIED!! She was one of my favorite characters!! And if she never died, then Crowfeather would still be with her and he would have never fallen in love with Leafpool. *sniff*

Wait a second...if Feathertail never died and Crowfeather/Leafpool wouldn't have happened, then Jaypaw never would have been born. (Yeah...my theory is that Jaypaw is actually the son of Leafpool and Crowfeather. Go to the StarClan group, topic "Jaypaw" for all the details and everything. XD)

lol. i agree with sella, but we should probably go back to the topic.

wait, which one...that feathertail shouldn't have died, or that jaypaw is leafpool's son?

both.

yeah.

I've heard that theory........ It's either true, or everyone's over thinking it.

gah!!! how do u keep track of all these characters?! all their names sound the same!!

why did i start this?

No they don't, Brigid!! Lol at least not to me...

And Morgan...if it's not true, then Leafpool and Jaypaw and Crowfeather and everyone else are doing a LOT of strange, clue-giving things for absolutely no reason.

I agree w/ morgan: everyone's thinking too hard.

No we're not!!

The clues are just TOO big to ignore!! :P

Everything's like screaming it out!!

Especially when someone asked Erin Hunter if that theory was true and she said "Um...I can't really say or it would be a really big spoiler."

When i was in the warrior's group, I kept hearing clues i never read about!

in the books

Oh-oh, that's not good! What book are you on?

I've read them all but Firestar's Quest, Cats of the Clans, and The Scrouge Manga thingy. I just don't remember reading about what they talking about.

Oooh you have to read The Rise of Scourge!! Scourge was SO CUTE when he was a kit!! I mean, he's so tiny and he's got these huge, vulnerable eyes and he's just so AWWWW!!! It's still hard to believe he turned evil. Now whenever I think of Scourge, I always see the little kitten he used to be. XD

And Firestar's Quest is really good, too. Plus Cats of Clans has a lot of clue stuff...

I started reading Rise of Scrouge at the bookstore...I didn't finish. :( I started Firestar's Quest, didn't finish that either. Mostly because I'm reading so many other things right now. Is Cats of the Clans like the feild guide? 'cuz I LOVED that.

Yeah it is...it's basically gives inside information about famous cats and stuff.

It better come in soon at the library then!

I don't know if it will soon...it just came out in the bookstore!

no, its been out for a while. Before school got out. WAY before school got out. Besides, my hold is in now. :D

Oh. Whoops. XD

lol

i just... don't understand the warriors books... XD

lol that's okay. nobody said you have to like them. XD

Ya, I found the confusing for a little bit. Now I don't. But there's no law saying you have to like them.

True. XD

lol. yeah it's okay. i was just saying....
