Pretties

Tally should be perfectly content now that she is a Pretty. She's beautiful now, and her life is a procession of parties and wardrobe changes. Tally can't shake her uneasiness though, and when she meets a young man named Zane and learns the truth behind being a Pretty, she is forced to outrun what she knows and the people after her because of it. Carine Montbertrand gives an impressive performance. She articulates the "dumbness" that comes from living in a brainwashed, spoiled, vapid society, sending shivers up listeners' spines. While this is the third in a series, listeners who haven't caught the first two books will feel comfortable with the story and be enticed to find the first two. J.M.S.
