  1. Let's get a conversation going about the book. Everyone needs to post at least one posting per day.

  2. Shay and Tally have been using hoverboards to get around sometimes. Also they used this machine to change what they look like so they could become pretty instead of and ugly. The other thing was that Pier was a pretty and Tally was an ugly. I think this book is pretty good so far and when I went and looked at the cover I thought this book was going to be really weird.

  3. The joke they pulled on the new uglies was a good prank. Then they covered up their tracks by going swiming. Then they came up with a new prank they were going to run away to smoke. When I heard that I was surpised. This is a good book and I want to keep reading it.

  4. I would have to agree with Clay. The prank was kind of funny. Rusties are the people who are old and ugly I think. This book is good so far I think.

  5. The book is kind of good it kind of confusing sometimes but not all the time. I like it though.

  6. This book is good so far but some of it is kind of confusing. You always wonder what will happen next and it makes you think alot which I don't really like to do but oh well.

  7. The book is starting to get pretty good but I think that Tally just might go to the smoke with Shay but I dont know that yet guess we will find out.

  8. I would have to agree with anthony because tally is probably going to freak out or something. The book is kind of hard figure out sometimes and sometimes to remember. My favorite part about the book is when tally gets taken away from these people and she kind of gets like interigated or something.

  9. This book is still kind of confusing in some ways. The other thing is Tally is going to Smoke but she isn't there yet. Also Tally went to Dr. Cable to see if she could look pretty but he said he couldn't do it. Then Dr. Cable said that Tally has to do something before he could do the surgery and it is for Tally to grab a this survival kit and go to Smoke. This is somewhat happened so far.

  10. The thing that caught me by surprise is that Peirs was at her home. He was there to tell her to tell on shae. Mabe those people sent him or somthing. But anyways she went and told on shay. That surprised me to, be cause she had made a promise to shay. The book is getting better as we read it.

  11. The book is getting verty interesting now that she is kind of a spy but not really and that she is going to the smoke to actualy bring shay and all of the other people back. But i think that she might just stay there instead.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Who thinks Anthony is right? Will she stay at the Smoke or is she going there to bring Shay back? What will she find when she gets there? Will it be like it is at her old home?

    ReplyDelete
  13. I would agree with Anthony I think she is kind of a spy and I don't think she willl try to bring back her friends. I think she will stay at Smoke just because Shay will probably like it there and Shay might tell her to just stay here. That is what I think will happen but Anthony might be right.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I would have to agree with Anthony, I think that she might see shay then not go back. She maybe will remeber her promise to shay and just stay there. I think that it would be better than her old home, because she won't have to worry about beening ugly. That is just my opinion on this situation.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I think that Anthony is right because he has a great point. But yeah I think that when she gets there it will probably be more then what she had expected and like it there, but she also made a promise to her best friend Paris so it is kind of hard to tell what Tally will really do but i guess we will find out.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Dr cable is more like a interrogater than a doctor. Dr cable was asking tally where shay is. Tally didn't want to break her promise. Peirs was telling tally to tell on shay. So,she told the doctor where shay is. She is at the smoke with david. Now she is traveling on a hoverboard to find her.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Are they going to find the spying device on Tally? What is that device called and where is it at on her body?

    ReplyDelete
  18. I think that they wont find it but i bet that Tally will just show them it and throw it away to just stay there for the rest of her life.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I will have to disagree with Anthony on this one. I think they might find it and Shay will not trust her any more, and then Tally might get kicked out of the smoke.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Also Tally finally made it to the smoke. The flower problem they have is a bad one. When they meet on top of the hill Tally and Shay were very happy to see each other. Then when that guy found the tracker on Tally's board she started to freak out. I thought that she was going to be caught. But luckly she didn't.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I have to agree with Clay on the flower problem they had was pretty bad. The man found the tracker on Tally's board and she freaked out. What I thought was really scary when I read the book was when a guy grabbed Tally's board from the water and he was in the water and you could only see a hand go out of the water. If that happened to me I would be really scared even if it was a prank.

  22. First off Shay is taking Tally to the boss. But he was busy, so Shay showed her some of the magazines. Tally was very surpised that the uglies in it were smilling. Then shay told her that they were famous people. She was even more surpised at that. Tally was also amazed that they are cutting down trees.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Hi! This is Tollin Tarroll. I wouls have to agree with both Mariah and Clay. I don't think she will ever set the tracker off. I think she will tell them about it though. I agree with Anfurney too.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I think that Tally and David are going to fall in love. The other thing is David thought that Tally would do something bad and then he realized that she was bad at all. This book is getting very exciting and I can't wait until something really happens between Shay, David, and Tally. Also I think we should read Pretties after this because I want to find out what happens after this book.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Who will end up together? Tally and David? Shay and David? or neither?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Well what I think is Tally will just tell shay the truth about why she is there and when David finds out he going to be all upset so I think that neither wil end up together because david will be mad at shay because she led a spy right to where they are so it wont work out either way.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I got my deal to work! I think that Tally will get rid of the necklace. I think that Tally and David will get togeather later on in the book. I would have to agree with Mariah. I'm thinking the same thing.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I think that Davids parents like tally. I think it waould stink being in Tally shoes right now. I think that shay is going to get really mad at Tally. I really don't know what is going to happen.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Hey everybody I agree with Tollin because it would kind of stink to be the situation that Tally is in right now with Davids parents and stuff. I think that Shay is going to find out about it and get upset with what Tally is doing not telling David about her necklace (pendent) thingy.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I think tally and david would end up together. It looks like it might happen. David's parents like tally, I think

    ReplyDelete
  31. I agree with anthony. I think it will stink to be the situation that Tally is in. I think that Shay will get upset with Tally about not telling David about her pendent

    ReplyDelete
  32. Now that David and Tally kissed i think that when Shay finds out about it she is going to be very upset with Tally. Then after that Tally will probably be forced by herself to tell David about the pendant. But I dont know because I think that Tally is starting to think twice about going back to New Pretty town to get the operation because of what Davids parents had told Tally.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I knew it. Tally and david kissed. I think shay might find out about it too. Shay might get upset with tally. She might make tally tell about the pendent.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I think that now that Tally and david kissed, things are going to be a mess for awhile. I was saprized they kissed.

    Now that the specias are there, it is going to be hard to guess what is going to happend. I think that the people who got away will come back and save the other Smokie, but im not sure. I def. want to keep reading the book thats for sure!

    ReplyDelete
  35. I think that Tally and David are going to be together just because the way they act together. Also Tally is taking Shay to the boss but I think it was Shay couldn't so David showed different kinds of magazines to Tally.

  37. Mariah

    They have been talking about kissing, but so far they haven't actually kissed. Anthony you didn't have that quite right either. You must have misunderstood. David went to kiss her, but she pulled away.

    Mariah are you sure that you're reading all of this? If so, come and show me where you're seeing them kiss on almost every page. I must be missing that.

    You guys be sure that when you miss school you should try to have the pages read before you come back so you don't have to miss the reading and discussion the next day in class. If you don't read what you miss you probably aren't going to do well on the test. Remember that test will be at least 1/2 of your grade for this quarter.

  38. No Mrs. Miller I can show you where it says they kissed in the book. But anyways now that they are all captured I dont think that they are going to be able to keep all of the smokies there I think they are going to escape.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Tally threw the necklace into the fire. It must be really scary to see the burned down building and animals people screaming and running. In the bag when the boss was there were peppers and a duffel of ancient things.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I stand corrected on the kissing thing.

    What do you guys think is going to happen to David and Tally now? Will they stay in the wild, or will they be caught? What will happen to David's parents? Would you believe Tally is you were Shay? I want your opinions on these things.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I think that if they do go and try to break all of the others out then I think that they are going to get cought. I think that Davids parents are hiding out and the specails arent specail enough to find them. I also wouldn't beleive Tally because she was the last one to go into the smoke and stuff like that. But I would like to see what happens next in the book.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I think that they are going to save David's parents and Shay. I honestly don't know what will happen to his parents. Yea I would believe Tally because how could she have made everything go bad all of a sudden. These questions are in my opinion. Tally had gotten on the hoverboard and then took off somewhere. I think maybe she stole the hoverboard from the Special or something though.

    ReplyDelete
  43. I think that they are going to try to save the other Smokies. Tally knows her city pretty well, and that is were they are taking Shay, Croy, and other Smokies. I think Shay will understand later on in the story and she will forgive Tally. I think Tally and David are going to get into a fight when Tally tells him that it was her fault, but they will stay togeather. David will be mad, but he will kind of understand. They will go save Davids parents to. This book is def. interesting and keeps you on your toes.

    ReplyDelete
  44. First Tally got one of the hover broards. She got on the board and just went. Then she rembered the cave. So she went there and in the cave she found David. I think mabe when they go back to the city they will be caught. David's parents are mabe going to turn pretty by force, then become doctors again. But that is just my opinon. I would trust Tally if I was Shay just because they have been friends for a long time.

    ReplyDelete
  45. tally threw the pendent into the fire. Then there was a pop that came from the pendent. It was horrible at the smoke. The specials came and arrested everyone exepet tally. shay thought tally betrayed her.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I think that Tally and David will find Davids parents. I bet they get there right before they get the operation. I not sure if they got captured yet though. It is hard to tell what is going to happen next.

    And I agree with ANFURNEY!

    ReplyDelete
  47. I like that you guys are making predictions and telling me how you feel about some of the things that are happening in the book. That's what I'm looking for in your blogs.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I think that if Davids parents did get cought. Well then i bet Tally and David wil get to them before the specails will do anything. But thats just if they did get cought, but if they didn't then i bet that they had some other hide out that they didn't tell David about.

    I also agree with Tollin he good at this

    ReplyDelete
  49. The book is getting more interesting the further we read the book. It seems like in the beginning of the book not a lot happened but now there is like a million things happpening at once. What I have learned from this books so far is everyone is different in there own way but they are against each other.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I do really like how they are going back, because they are risking getting caught. I think that the idea of going back is going to get them caught. One thing that might also happen is they go back and Shay might be working for the speacials, and Shay might help the speacials find them two. Because Shay is still mad at tally. That is my opion.

    ReplyDelete
  51. I like this book alot thats for sure. There is allways something big happening. I want to read the "Pretties" after we get done with this book.

    & I agree with Anfurney!

    ReplyDelete
  52. I agree with Clay on that one. It would make sence if they used Shay to find Tally and David.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I have to agree with Clay and Collin about that one. The reason why I agree with Clay is since Shay is mad at Tally Shay could turn David and Tally in. The other reason why I agree with Collin is they can use Shay to find Tally and David.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Im going to have to disagree with all three of them well it could happen but I dont think that it will i just think that they will try to rescue them and they are goint to get cought and turn into pretties but thats what i think.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I agree wiith coilln. They might use shay to find Tally and David. They are willing to risk getting caught

    ReplyDelete
  56. That is true Anthony but since Shay is so mad at Tally right now she might turn them in to the Specials.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Now they are in the city. David was very surprised at how many people lived in the city. Then they went to steal two bungee jackets. David was very impressed with shay. Know they are going to try to get into the special cucumstances. I think that they might get caught. Or will they?????????????

    ReplyDelete
  58. I think that they will find them right before the opperation. Im not sure if they will get everyone out though. I think some of them may have had the opertaion already. It is going to be pretty exciting I think!

    ReplyDelete
  59. they could get caught. They are using glue to stick to the ceiling. That is the coolest thing to see

    ReplyDelete
  60. Now the book is starting to get really good now thatthey are inside specail circumstances. I think that they might get help from the uglies that they just met to try and get back davids parents and shay and all the rest of them. Its kind of exciting now.

    ReplyDelete
  61. I disagree with Brenn dawg they are using glue to hold the hovercar dar shut.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Anthony ment door instead of dar. I would agree with Clay about them getting caught. Also I would agree with Anthony about how the book is getting really good. Also how they might get help from the uglies.

    ReplyDelete
  63. This book is one of the best books I have ever read. It kinda suprised me that Tally went to go get pretty, but if Maddy's cure works it will be awesome. Then I think they will help all the pretties that want there brain back. It would be pretty scary being Tally, but yet pretty cool!

    ReplyDelete
  64. Tally went to go get pretty but there is this medicine that I think could change your brain back or something. I think that Special Circumstances aren't going to believe her. This book is amazingly awesome.

    ReplyDelete
  65. The book was a very good one, mabe the best I have read ever. Tally is taking a risk by going to get pretty. I think that she will forget about David and the other guys. I now want to read the pretties even more.

    ReplyDelete
  66. It didn't really surprise me how Tally went to go get pretty. I knew that that was what she was going to do in the first place. Now that she is turning then it going to get interesting because she hott.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Tally is pretty now and I don't think she likes being pretty just because the way she acts and the way everything is just different. The other thing is I wonder why Tally calls Shay, Shay'la and Shay calls Tally, Tally'wa. The book Pretties is amazing so far.

    ReplyDelete
  68. We started the Pretties now it kind of starting out slow because its the begining of the book. I think that it will start to get really interesting really fast. I also think that someone is going to come back and take Tally away so that she can read what she had wrote to herself.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I don't know if Tally will go back to see if the cure worked. She acts like she doesn't remember about the cure. I wonder if David will come and get her. It seems like it will be a pretty good book.

    ReplyDelete
  70. We started the pretties the other day. First off Tally is now a pretty. She parties and gets drunk like shay. They also call themsevles Tally-wa, and Shay-la. I really don't know why they call themselves that. I think this book will be another good one.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I don't know who is the little creaper, but i bet it is someone she knows. I thought it might be david getting her to follow her outside. It seems to be pretty interesting so far. I think the party's would be pretty fun to go to. I think the name thing is screwed up.

    ReplyDelete
  72. I agree with Collin on every thing but I think that the person that is creaping on her might be David or Croy. It's one of them I dont know though it could be anyone.

    ReplyDelete
  73. It's hard to tell who is the creaper. Like Anthony said it could be anyone though. But there is a possiblity that it is David or Croy.

    ReplyDelete
  74. I would agree with Anthony and Collin about all the stuff also. I would probably would have to say that the person who is creeping on Tally is eithor David or a guy that we don't know about yet. This is what I think.

    ReplyDelete
  75. well we know that it is Croy, that was the little creaper. I dont know why david didnt come and get her, but maybe its a good thing. I hope Tally-wa will go and see if the cure will work. It would be pretty cool if they found a cure.

    ReplyDelete
  76. The person was Croy, I was thinking it was David. Mabe he feels like Tally-wa betrayed him, by helping the speacials find the smoke. Tally-wa also got hit in the head with Peris's knee, and she has a big gash in her head.

    ReplyDelete
  77. This book is pretty good so far. It's kind of weired I think though. She still acts like the old Tally though, jumping off buildings and stuff.

    ReplyDelete
  78. I would agree with Clay and Collin about Croy being the creaper to Tally. On Clay's blog I agree on all of what he had said. This book is really good so far.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Tally kisses Zane and he Zane asks why she wanted to change into a Pretty. When we discussed about what happened I forgot that they had to use this spray skin bottle because she didn't have skin on her head. I thought it was really disgusting that her head wound was really gross. When Mrs. Miller asks if we wanted to be a Pretty or an Ugly I would rather choose to be an Ugly because you actually do work hands on and you will have muscles. The other thing is I mean I don't want to be ugly but from the book and what they do I rather be them. The Pretties sound stuck up and lazy. This is my opinion on being an Ugly.
