"What are you two . . . ?" The warden's voice stumbled. Didn't this beat everything? A pretty and an ugly taking a stroll together. The warden came closer, confusion all over his middle-pretty face.
Tally smiled. At least she was causing trouble to the end. "I'm Tally Youngnlood." she said. "make me pretty."
I decided to use the cliche cliff-hanger. But I thought what Scott Westerfeld did here was genius. These are the last couple sentences of the book, where the main character gives herself up to the government, and he makes it so it's impossible not to want to read the next book. It shows that through out everything that's happened to Tally in the book, she has remained what she was in the beginning, a trouble maker. And now the reader is practically forced to read the next book to find out what happends to her.
