Uglies: Shay's Story is a prequel for Uglies, it tells the readers of how Shay was turned into one of the Pretties. This graphic novel sets a good foundation for both fans of the Pretties series and new readers. At first it was difficult for me to adapt to the story-telling because I am not too fami...
This was a nice quick read as part of the Uglies series, but I don't feel like it told me anything I didn't already know. Getting Shay's side of the story was pretty much the same introduction to the world that Tally had in the original books, but from Shay's point-of-view. I liked it, and the drawi...
This book gave a little into what Shay felt before she met Tally. It also explains a little on how David trained the Crims before they escaped. It filled in some gaps but not too much.
I get that the uglies aren't really ugly, but the art in this book doesn't really make them look any different than the pretties. And I'm not sure this book could really stand on its own. I guess mostly it was a refresher of what happened in Uglies...

Gave up after 6 chapters. On the very first page, I was like "I shouldn't read this." Because actually seeing the Uglies characters kind of sours the fun of imagining how "ugly" (read: normal-looking) the Uglies are. (God help me if they ever make a movie version.) But, even worse, this book suffers...
After reading this, you would have to sympathize with Shay, and we do see the different sides to Tally, David, Zane, and really, Shay's actions in Uglies just became a lot more logical, and after all the treatment she receives, the one we do not see in Uglies, ugh THIS ISN'T FAIR TO HER! *shakes fis...
An ARC was provided by Del Rey / Spectra Books after winning the Goodreads giveaway.I must admit that it has been a while since I last read Uglies. So long that when I started reading, I had to try very hard to remember who everybody was. It was hard, but what I did remember was that, in the first b...
The Uglies series was one of the first YA series I read and I loved every bit of it. I don't normally read graphic novels but I made an exception for this one and I am so glad I did. Shay's Story is awesome! You don't want to miss out on Shay's backstory.Shay is a very important character in Ugli...
