But Charlene is concerned when she hears how her co-worker spends her evenings: Gertie's cousin is one of the missing, and Gertie wanders the city streets where many of the abductions took place, using herself as bait with a high-voltage stun gun in her pocket. Charlene reluctantly offers to trail her in a car, just in case she does lure the kidnapper and things go wrong.Unfortunately, the women find themselves the source of unwanted fame. And now they're on the radar of a very, very dangerous man...

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 fighting to forget what she knows and fighting for her life—because the authorities don’t intend to let anyone with this information survive.

"Special Circumstances" - These words have sent chills down Tally's spine since her days as a rebellious Ugly. Back then Specials were a sinister rumour - frighteningly beautiful, dangerously strong, breathtakingly fast. Ordinary pretties might live their whole lives without meeting a Special. But Tally's never been ordinary… Now she's been turned into one of them: a superamped fighting machine, engineered to keep the Uglies down and the Pretties stupid. The strength, the speed, and the clarity and focus of her thinking feel better than anything Tally can remember… most of the time. One tiny corner of her heart still remembers something more. Still, it's easy to tune that out - until Tally's offered a chance to stamp out the rebels of the New Smoke permanently. It all comes down to one last choice: carry out the mission she's programmed to complete, or listen to that tiny, faint heartbeat telling her that something's wrong… Either way, Tally's world will never be the same.

Alexander Li thought he was ready for college. He expected to encounter difficult classes, new and interesting people, and even a few wild parties. What he encountered went beyond his wildest dreams, and worst nightmares. He quickly finds himself drawn to the unusual group of students hanging out in the lobby of his dorm, who soon show him things are seldom as they appear. Balancing this increasingly fantastical life is his relationship with the beautiful young science student that has won his heart. Alexander's balance of reality is threatened when one of his new friends wakens an ancient evil, an evil with which his family has an ancient history. Now with their fate, and perhaps the fate of the world in their hands Alexander must face the battle of his lifetime. It's too bad saving the world doesn't count for extra credit. With a Freshman Orientation like this nothing will ever be the same.
