The final installment of Scott Westerfeld’s New York Times bestselling and award-winning Uglies series—a global phenomenon that started the dystopian trend.
A few years after rebel Tally Youngblood takes down the Specials regime, a cultural renaissance sweeps the world. “Tech-heads” flaunt their latest gadgets, “kickers” spread gossip and trends, and “surge monkeys” are hooked on extreme plastic surgery. Popularity rules, and everyone craves fame.
Fifteen-year-old Aya Fuse is no exception. But Aya’s face rank is so low, she’s a total nobody. An extra. Her only chance at stardom is to kick a wild and unexpected story.
Then she stumbles upon a big secret. Aya knows she is on the cusp of celebrity. But the information she is about to disclose will change both her fate…and that of the brave new world.

"This book, Extras by Scott Westerfeld, is the forth book in the series. To fully understand this book you do not have to read the first three, I how ever did. In the first three books are mostly following a girl named Tally. In this book, the story is about a younger girl, Aya, about three years later. This book is an exciting adventure story and it was very captivating. This book takes place many years from now and includes many fictional undertones. From the time I picked it up, to the time I finished, I did not want to put it down. It was a very good book and I recommend it to everyone."

" This book had an excellent twist to the series that I really enjoyed. Can't say too much though, otherwise I'll spill too many beans "
— Caterina, 2/6/2014" LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SERIES!!!!!! soooooooo sad that it is over!!!!!! Recomend this series to everyone!!!!!! "
— Lauren, 2/5/2014" Got about 20 pages in and had to stop. Should have left it a trilogy. "
— Twigg, 1/24/2014" It is different, I don't like how tally is so differnt, but it was Greta and a fast going. "
— Julia, 1/21/2014" This was one of my favorite books in the series. "
— Steff, 1/19/2014" Once again, a trilogy with an extra book. Didn't like the introduction of a new main character within the same series. "
— Deejane, 1/18/2014" to much technology going on, sometimes it was even hard to imagine with such a great explanation from the author, fast flying trains in between mountains... everything measured by popularity..followers, much like twitter. I liked it but not as much as uglies or pretties "
— Lucila, 1/7/2014" Book was meant for fans, lost its meaning. "
— Amanda, 1/5/2014" It was okay, i think it was pointless though "
— Cadey, 12/16/2013" Eh...I didn't like this one near as much as the first 3. It felt like a completely different book. It was ok, and I stayed interested enough to finish it but didn't love it. "
— Kelly, 12/15/2013" I KNOW CALL MYSELF, Jadah Youngblood... THIS IS MY FAVORITE SERIES!, plus this additional book in the series was... more than Bubbly-making! "
— Jadah, 11/22/2013" Thought it wasnt going to be as good as the others at first by was pleasantly surprised by how much i liked it when i finished it. "
— Jazmine, 11/15/2013" Adding a fourth book to an already-complete trilogy is not usually a great idea. Something gets lost along the way and this book felt forced and weak. Stick to the original 3. "
— Kim, 11/14/2013" series was a waste of time reading "
— Vanessa, 11/11/2013" I didnt like how Tally wasnt included til the end because i got used to Tallys personality and thoughts. I got used to it though and was a good book to read c: "
— Candy, 7/7/2013" 2 1/2 stars maybe? My least favorite in the series by far. "
— Kristen, 7/2/2013" The story didn't pull me into it like the previous ones. It seemed to be anti-climatic to me. THe main character just rubbed me the wrong way. "
— Lyzzibug, 6/12/2013" disliked "
— Shanna, 5/28/2013" I read the whole series and I loved it all! "
— Tonari, 3/24/2013" It wasn't my favorite of the series, but I still really like it. It kept me guessing what was going to happen next. "
— Deborah, 2/24/2013" Yeah.... Didnt like these books as much as I originally hoped. Same plot in each of them and the last book was just terrible. "
— Amberlee, 2/10/2013" I read this. Physically my eyes moved over the words. And that's it. I didn't like it. Maybe I would like it more if there was another book after this set in another city...or something...I don't know what but something is lacking. "
— Canuck, 9/12/2012" I wasn't a massive fan of how everything was rounded up in a few pages. Reminded me a lot of Breaking Dawn in that respect. "
— Sarah, 4/30/2012" Very good series. I really enjoyed it. "
— Barbara, 4/19/2012" This book put me to sleep every night. It was NOT like the first 3 and I was disappointed. It was OK but just took WAY too long to get to the point. "
— Brandi, 3/28/2012" I have about the inverse impression than the rest of the reviews: the first book was so-so; the rest of the series was much better. Much more captivating and sense-making, so to speak. "
— Christian, 11/27/2011" Meandering, meandering, meandering. And repetitive. "
— Alan, 5/23/2011" I was actually liking this book better than the regular trilogy, until the ending sort of fizzled out. The economy that was built was pretty interesting and it was something I could see really happening. "
— Tim, 5/18/2011" harder to get into because starts out with a whole different set of characters. They meet up with Tally about half way anf then the excitment begins "
— Ann, 5/17/2011" I liked the book but it was annoying that the same characters weren't in the book from the start. It felt like this wasn't really part of the series. Still an interesting story. "
— Tracy, 5/15/2011" It was interesting that this book was told from a different character, but it's still a good book that keeps you guessing like all the others. "
— Laura, 5/12/2011" First of all u cnt jst switch up characters too wierd ohh well it wasntbad but it wasnt good "
— Kelly, 5/12/2011" It took me a while to come across the fourth book completing the saga...I wished for more to come from it though. Still action packed, and you get sucked into this imaginative world. "
— Bianca, 5/8/2011" Didn't really see the point of extending a trilogy, usually if an author adds another it is because they left something undone... if Tally's relationships were expanded then i could see a fourth one, but this was mostly a new cast of chacters and i just didn't feel interested in them<br/> "
— Kimmarie, 5/4/2011" after reading the first three books i began to dislike this series but i didnt want to stop reading it. i had to finish! so i sat down and read this book in about two hours and honestly wanted to burn the book and do trible dance around the fire. "
— Brittneyvlam, 5/4/2011" I just wish this book was from Tally's point of view and not the other girl's. It would have been better that way. "
