Uglies to Book Comparison

I am comparing the book "Uglies" to the book "The Giver" because they both have similar themes of that of the "ideal" dystopian society. In the book "The Giver", the residents of the town that the giver lives in do not experience love, color, emotional depth, or even knowledge. In the Uglies, the residents of New Pretty Town have lesions on their brain that prevents them from having true original thought or very real emotions. In both of the books there are few people that have the ability to experience what true life is really like. The difference between the two books is that in "The Giver", Jonas, the main character, has to figure out whether he wants to live a true life or live around people that don't have a clue of what life could be. In the "Uglies", Tally, the main character, doesn't want to have a pretty mind and she wants to be "bubbly" meaning that she can think clearly unlike everyone else in her town. The books have two different takes on a dystopian society, one being based on beauty and one being based on having no feelings or emotional experiences but they both depict a "perfect" world in which everyone would ultimately get along.
