Comment:
This week I've finish reading the book "Uglies" by Scott Westerfeld. Westerfeld was born on May 5th, 1963. He is an American author of Science Fiction novels. Westerfeld is one of my favorite authors- and I'm excited to read the rest of his novels. The reason I like his writing so much is because it explains every situation in specific detail and in an interesting voice that makes the reader (me) intrigued. I personally don't like science fiction novels, but Scott Westerfeld has taught me differently. The book "Uglies" is one of my favorite novels along with some other books that I've mentioned before. It is an awesome book full of action, romance, and cool slang words which you'll want to use in public to confuse your friends & family. "Uglies" is set in the future in America, which means there's a whole bunch of spectacular future creations such as hover boards and floating ice- something you wouldn't normally see on an everyday occasion. However, despite of all the neat gadget, the world there isn't perfect. In fact, far from perfect. Society has gone superficial, and everyone is obsessed with outer beauty. People between the age of 12 through 16 (The "Uglies")are forced to live together in a primitive community- as you can already guess, people would do anything to break the rules in that new futuristic community. They do a whole lot of bad things in order to become the "Pretties" and be 'in'. I am not going to spoil an amazing opportunity to read this great book, you'll just have to read it yourselves! Those of you who want to read the book, go for it! I recommend this book to my class.
Overall, I'm looking forward to reading more science fiction novels and gain more interesting in them.
I am glad that you loved the book. I like how you put a bit of information about the author in your post, though I wish you would talk a bit more about you novel in the post even though you don't want to spoil it for us.
