About this listen

"Special Circumstances": The words have sent chills down Tally's spine since her days as a repellent, rebellious ugly. Back then Specials were a sinister rumor - frighteningly beautiful, dangerously strong, breathtakingly fast. Ordinary pretties might live their whole lives without meeting a Special. But Tally's never been ordinary. And now, in the third book in the series, Tally's been turned into a Special: 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: listen to that tiny, faint heartbeat or carry out the mission she's programmed to complete. Either way,Tally's world will never be the same.

This book series just keeps getting better and better. It has been a fascinating ride through the life of Tally as an Ugly, a Pretty and now as a Special. The narrator also improved with each book. Has easily become one of my favourite audiobook series.

The storyline had potential but ended up super repetitive and unimaginative. Don't waste your time and credits on this series. It reads like it was written by a child. I tried to stick with it because the concept interested me but I couldn't fish this book.
