The hotly anticipated second book from Joya Goffney, author of the 2021 YA romcom Excuse Me While I Ugly Cry.
Monique lives a perfect life - a preacher's daughter and the girlfriend of the town's golden boy. But it's not that simple. She's torn between her parents who want the pure virginal daughter, and her boyfriend, Dom, who wants to explore the more intimate side of their relationship.
Tired of waiting, her boyfriend breaks up with her, spurring Monique to discover she has a medical condition that makes her far from perfect and she concocts a plan to fix her body and win him back.
With the help of her frenemy, Sasha, the overly zealous church girl Monique's mum pushes her to hang out with, and Reggie, the town's not-so-good boy, Monique must go on trips to unknown and uncomfortable places to find the treatment that will help her. But in doing so, she must face some home truths: maybe she shouldn't be fixing her body to please a boy, maybe Sasha is the friend she needed all along and maybe Reggie isn't so bad at all.
Use eye-grabbing diagrams to help you to discover the human body in glorious technicolour!

The second installment of Scott Westerfeld’s international bestselling
Uglies series – the global phenomenon that started the dystopian trend.
In Tally’s world, looks are all that matters. And now that she’s
finally undertaken the surgery to become a ‘Pretty’, everything seems
perfect: her looks are flawless, her clothes are cool, her boyfriend is
totally gorgeous, and she's completely popular.
But beneath the fun of non-stop parties, high-tech luxury and apparent
total freedom, Tally can’t stop a nagging sense that something is
wrong. Something important. Then a message from her ‘Ugly’ past
arrives, forcing Tally to remember the truth she learned before her
transformation, and the fun stops cold. Because the true price of this
perfect world is more than Tally is willing to pay…
