Discussion (Mattie, Brooke, Molly, Ellie)

                                                        Discussions 

    Today the questions that the Discussion directer shared were about how the characters in the book the Uglies felt. One question that she stated was how did Tally feel about David? We said happy that David likes her. Other questions were about how Perris felt about Tally being in the smoke. We answered by saying he was probably felt scared for her and wanted her to find him. Another question was about how Shay felt. We thought she felt like she was  jealous because Tally just walked in and stole David from her.

Conversation with Tally

      Hi Tally its Sydney. I was just wondering why you can't just be happy with who you are. I know they make being a pretty sound awesome but it's not. I agree with Shay I would want to stay an Ugly. Don't let the name Uglies persuade you to be a Pretty. The pretties call you ugly even though you're not. Keep that in mind.
      I was also thinking, are you and Shay going to stay best friends? Because it seems like you aren't. Shay wants to stay Ugly and you want to turn a Pretty. So you are going to get separated unless Shay is found in Smoke and is forced to be a Pretty. You may not even see Shay again because she ran away with David. Hope you stay friends!
      I know you are very wild. Is this going to cause you to get in trouble by Dr.Cable? She seems very suspicious and scary. I don't think you want to know Dr.Cable's consequences. I suggest you stay on the uglyville side and do what Dr.Cable says. You can still ride your hoverboard but I just want you to stay safe and try not to get in trouble.

Discussion Summary 3 (Victoria G.)

We discussed that Tally is being kinda mean right now. David is a super nice guy and is always there for Tally. Shay shouldn't have gotten the surgery. David and Tally are a very cute couple and are going to save everyone expect Shay because she's pretty. Shay is only mad at Tally because Tally stole Davis. Peris deserves to stay alone.

Uglies what would I say to Tally (Molly)

At this point in the book Tally and David ran away to try to find everyone that got taken away by the Special Circumstances. Tally and David are mostly want to find where David's mom and dad are. The two of them checked David's house but his parents weren't there. So Tally told him that they should go to the Uglies to find his parents. David was unsure about going because he grew up in the Smokes, but he decided to try to find his parents with Tally.

In the Uglies, I would tell Tally that she is being very risky to take her and David both to the Special Circumstances. They both could get caught and could get into serious trouble. Tally of course has a trick to get both of them in Special Circumstances without getting caught. They both need to find away to jump down from the building. Tally decides to do what she did in the beginning of the book, jump off with by bungee jumping.

I would also ask Tally about the relationship between her and David. At first I thought Tally and Peris were going to date until Tally left to find Shay. When Tally made it to the Smokes I thought Shay and David liked each other and they were going to date. Then David started crushing on Tally and Shay was getting jealous. Tally and David kissed and ran away together. I would like to know if they are dating.

           If I had the chance to talk to Tally I would probably tell her that she needs to turn in Shay to the government. I would tell her to turn in Shay because Tally is wasting her time helping Shay when all of her focus should be on becoming a Pretty and finding her best friend Perris.

            Tally needs to reunite with her friend Perris. Shay shouldn't be trusted  because Shay is keeping her from liking David and is wasting Tally's time to reunite with Perris. Also, if the government finds out that Tally was helping Shay stay hidden then she could get in trouble and not get to turn pretty and find her best friend Perris in Pretty Town.

                                     The second thing I would tell Tally is that she needs to do is tell David to tell Shay that he likes Tally and not Shay. The reason why she needs to tell David this is because David likes Tally. It would just be so much easier if David told Shay that he likes Tally and not her.

                                                       

what would you say? (Mattie. M)

In the book uglies, they main character is Tally. If i saw Tally right now and I could say anything to her I would say that she needs to slow down. I would tell her that she needs to turn in Shay and also tell the truth to everyone. She is lying to a lot of people and that could ruin her friendships with everyone. Tally also needs to tell the truth to Shay about David. Tally has been going behind Shay's back and because of that there friendship could ruin.

Tally also needs to stop changing her mind every 2 seconds. First she wants to become pretty then, she doesn't then, she wants to be with Peris now, she wants to be with David and it could go on and on. I think Tally needs to go back to her original plan. If she doesn't turn Shay in that could jeopardize anyone else's plan to become pretty. Tally wants to stay in the smoke but she is getting in a lot of trouble so everyone else doesn't want her to stay.

Right now in the book Tally is sitting in a cave with David because the Special Circumstances are looking for her. She wouldn't have to be hiding if she wasn't lying. I think that sooner or later they're going to find Tally and David and she will get in even more trouble than she already is. She also needs to tell the truth to the Special Circumstances because now David is getting involved and will end up getting in trouble with Tally. For David's safety Tally needs to own up to her actions and confess to the Special Circumstances about what she has done.
