Okay, I just finished his Uglies trilogy, and loved it. My biggest problem was all of the grammatical errors. (I want to kill his editor!)

Has anyone heard of him/them? Or read any of his other stuff? Is it as good? Better, worse? Details, people, please! gonk

Love and Vale,

I think he was one of those editors who get all into the story and plot and forget about the grammar and sentence structure. xd

Book four is out, Extras. It pisses me off that their still calling it a trilogy when it's a quadrilogy. (Don't anyone say that it's a f***ing quartet. It's a book series, not a group of old singing men.) Quad- four, log- writing. Agh!

Oh, and this one follows Aya, not Tally. Which also pisses me off.

i loved heart the uglies trilogy! i haven't read them in a while, but i'm about to read the newest one...how can they call it a trilogy when there's four books?
i've also read So Yesterday by the same author, but that book was just plain weird in my opinion.

I know what you mean the books are great but how can four books make a trilogy and write on the fourth book series. They might as well fix the others to say series. I haven't actually read the last book but the others were great.

I've only ever read "So Yesterday" by him. I thought it was an all right story, but didn't care so much for the way it was written. Because of that reason, I never really got into any of his other books.

I only read Uglies. Ugh. It was a horrible book. It was so boring. I never read any of the other books.
I never saw the grammical errors in the book...
