Down River

I would ask the warden to change me pretty. If it was to find out if the cure worked I would have done it. I think the pretties should be pretty but not brainwashed.

Confessions

Yes i think she should have waited a little longer to tell them the truth. I think she will regret it. I know that David will forgive her.

hippocratic oath

yes i would have forced her to take the cure. If there was a 99% chance of it working she would be OK and she will be OK. so i think she should have been forced to take the cure.

night alone

yes i would get the cure. I would want to help all the pretties that are brain washed and get them to there normal state.
I think this quote means that she doesn't know how to change her brainwashed friend. she is happy for shay because she is pretty but she fells sorry that she has the legions. she need to find a cure that is where maddy comes in.

"Rescue"

  • shay had been forced to get the surgery
  • shay is now nice to tally
  • they save croy and a little more smokie friends
  • didn't save Az
  • Maddy tells them that AZ is dead she is the kicker in this chapter.

"Inside"

I think it has a big meaning to the story. this is where they find out where they do the operation. If they can they can now stop it if they wanted to.

Radiology- where they get all the bone marrow out of the body
neurology- where they look at the brains
magnetic imaging-where they look at the body magnetically
operating theatre two-a second room for the operation
morgue-where they keep the dead people

"she was tall elegant, every feature perfection. Her eyes-deep and soulful, flecked with copper and gold-widened with a trouble look."

"over the edge"

I would want it to say "Help the poor" I think we should do as much as we can to help the poor. they have tried hard and i think they just need the first step to be put there for them.

"Accomplices"

Tally believes in the smoke. she has changed throughout the book because she wanted to be pretty so she could see Paris but they never talk about him in the end of the book. the big change is that she wants to be ugly her whole life.

"Familiar Sights"

Yes i do think Tally's plan will work. She wants to help David because its her fault that they were kidnapped. I think her feelings are valid, she is trying to help him.

"Maddy & Az"

"The Failed Response to Hurricane Katrina:
Tens of thousand of people were stuck in New Orelans without
sufficient food, water, medicine, medical care...or hope."

I was the lucky on I lived in Picayune, Mississippi.

"Ruin"

The victory was that she had gotten the magazines. that way she could show the uglies in uglyville. what was lost was that she had lost the boss........... He was dead?

I think he is right but wrong. I thin that Tally is good but bad for helping dr. Cable. I think tally should be feeling guilty because she has lead dr. Cable to the smoke.

"Run"

The voice in the dark is the boss. He is a friend of tally an he will help her. I think she will help the boss escape with her.

"In Case of Damage"

I think that self preservation is the preservation of oneself from harm or destruction or saving yourself no matter what it takes. i Think that is is important to have self preservation because Tally likes the smoke but she did help dr. cable so she need to protect herself from the smokies finding out the truth. Yes i think i might lie to keep self preservation.

"The Rabbit Pen"

Tally is on the smoke side. she wants to try to escape and then come back to help her friends.she is willing to risk it all to save the smokies.

"Invasion"

I think this is the climax of the book. special circumstances came after tally destroyed the necklace.If they find out that tally led the special circumstances to them than everyone will hate her.

"Burning Bridges"

I think in this quote David is saying like in the world we live in to day you don't have to get surgery to be beautiful. I think what he is saying is you are beautiful in your own way, even if you think you're not.

"Pretty Minds"

I think what they are trying to say is that when your pretty you think you are the best person out there. That you can do what ever you want without anyone caring.

"The Secret"

I think society cruel and judgemental and they didn't respect others for what they had to offer.

I think that being pretty is no what you have on the outside but what you can do on the inside such as giving up something or someone.

"Bravery"

  • simile-"Dr. Cable's pendant seemed to grow heavier and heavier, wound around her neck as tightly as the vines, brush, and roots grasping the railroad tracks." page 243
  • imagery - "In the valley below, the orchids glowed with pale malevolence in the moonlight, a frozen sea against the dark shore of the forest." page 245
  • personification " She thought of the orchids spreading across the plains below, choking the life out of other plants, out of the soil itself, selfish and unstoppable." page 244

I think it requires bravery to meet anyone new, especially if you do not know the people. First impressions are very important. People say they remember you most for the first thing you say to them. In Tally's case, she has a secret and she has to hide her secret, and be "judged" by David's parents. This would require her to be brave face this unknown situation.

"Suspicion"

Yes, I think
Shay has all right to be jealous because she like David but David likes Tally.

I just got a new bat and it was special to me because i didn't want to mess it up but then somebody stepped on it and now there is a big scratch in it. Now many people are getting that bat to.

"Heartthrob"

Yes, it would have been easier because she is starting to get attached to the smoke and even the people inside like David.

"David"

I think they ran away because they wanted to start a new version of the rusties. I this textual evidence:
"They reversed the operation?"
"Yes."
"They cut each other? Out here in the wild? To make themselves....."

"Work"


There are many things beautiful about this picture of the skyline. My favorite part is the color around the sun, I to me is the most beautiful part of the picture. I don't think there is anything ugly about this picture. I would give anything to see this view accept my bestest dad, my worlds awesomest sister and mom.
