It is a science fiction novel written in 2005. Set in the future where everyone is turned "Pretty" by extreme cosmetic surgery when they turn 16. The point for this surgery is because they say that in the past (which means us now) too many people criticize people for their looks including skin tone color. So if everyone looked the same, if everyone was equally gorgeous, there would be much less problems in the society.
The book is amazing and easy to understand. I love how original the story is and how cool the future society of theirs is. I remember this thing they had called "skin spray." It was this spray you could use if you got a cut and "needed" skin immediately. How cool would it be if we actually had that?!!
This book is " analyzed as a means of understanding modern society's relationship with the body image and cosmetic surgery" and sends off a good message: everyone is beautiful in their own way. That's what makes us special, unique and "pretty." :) okay saying this last part reminds me of a very inspiring song by a very talented artist called Christina Aguilera. The song is called Beautiful.
