Uglies meets The Handmaid’s Tale for the new YA generation in this mind-blowing novel from bestselling queen of YA Holly Bourne.
In Belle and Joni’s world there are two options for girls:One, follow the rules of the Doctrine like Belle: apply your Mask, work hard to be crowned at the Ceremony, be a Pretty. Or two, fight the rules like Joni: leave your face bare, work hard to escape to the Education, be an Objectionable. But maybe there is a third option… Change the rules. Reclaim your power. If you can… What would you choose?
Warning – this novel deals with issues that some readers may find upsetting, including references to pornography and sexual assault.
