Synopsis from Goodreads:
"Gorgeous. Popular. Perfect. Perfectly wrong.
Tally has finally become pretty. Now her looks are beyond perfect, her clothes are awesome, her boyfriend is totally hot, and she's completely popular. It's everything she's ever wanted.
But beneath all the fun -- the nonstop parties, the high-tech luxury, the total freedom -- is a nagging sense that something's wrong. Something important. Then a message from Tally's ugly past arrives. Reading it, Tally remembers what's wrong with pretty life, and the fun stops cold.
Now she has to choose between fghting to forget what she knows and fighting for her life -- because the authorities don't intend to let anyone with this information survive."
Review: Tally wanted this in the first place and she got it. It's not as simple as just being pretty now because after she has successfully transformed herself into a pretty, she wants to be a crim. Remember her past and knowing more information than she already knew had created Tally as a more complex and round character so I found that more interesting to read since the novel was from her perspective. But then again, the novel's pacing was slow...even slower than the first book in my opinion. The whole plot seemed repetitive though because Tally changes into a pretty, but then she wants to change again, and then she gets lost again. Although this time, Tally meets a guy called Zane..but what will she do with David? Everyone is going to all have different opinions upon this but I thought that the love triangle entices the plot and makes it more appealing. (This idea is overused by so many authors that readers may not like it because a love triangle is pretty common.) Some moments of the story just felt too long and those were the times when I just wanted to put the book down and stop reading. I do not think I am willing to give the last book a try because the second book just kind of lost my interest.
