Ella Enchanted (rack)

Summary: My favorite book!
Review: This is definetly a winner! I fell in love with it imedietly, and wasn't satisfied even after I'd read it a few times in a row! Well worth it's award. The ending is completely satisfactory--not to mention suprising, heart wretching, and perfect. Even after all these years, if I want to feel cheered up, I turn to Ella Enchanted. Gail Carson Levine has a definite gift. She is creative and original--if not in the whole Cinderella air, in her method of presenting it. I will NOT tell you the ending or even the middle, because the suprise is a definite SUPRISE. But I will give you this: Ella is a young maiden who was bestowed a curse in her first hour of life by a well-meaning fairy named Lucinda. The curse was obedience. Ella has to do whatever another person commands of her. The book tells the story of the dificulties she went through, until the ulitimate test..... This book puts all other Cinderella -- if not every other fairy tale -- stories on the shelf with it's wit and humor. I hope that you will read this and I know that you won't regret it! Recommend it to everyone to share the wonderful experience! But please don't let that person know the ending! Because the ending is my favorite part...and it will be your's too! ... I recommend it for 10-14, maybe even younger.

Summary: The best retelling of Cinderella...
Review: Ok, first of all...the people who make bad comments of about this book, and the people who are being sexist, better back off. Also, the people who are making rude comments about the author better check themselves b/c if this was such as bad book why is there over 600 good reviews for this book huh? And why did this book recieve over ten awards? Answer me that!
Basically, this is a book about a girl named Ella. Since birth she was cursed to obey all her commands ( sure it gets annoyinghow she cant say NO, but thats just the way it is..) She falls in love with the handsome Prince Char, but before she can marry him, she must find Lucinda and end the curse...I HIGHLY recoment this book to anybody, any age...Lemme just say ages 7-100..haha. This has got to be one of the best books I have personally read. I recomended this to a friend, and after she spent the whole night reading it, she came to me and thanked me so much for recomending it. See for yourself!

Summary: Delightful
Review: I loved it, adored it, just read it for the second time and loved it even more!
What a brilliant way to make a strong and passionate Cinderella -- and thus get the prince to fall in love with her.
Unable to disobey any order, Ella of Frell must use her wits and talent to get out of a lot of sticky situations -- from the tyranny of her stepsister Hattie to the horror of man-eating ogres. But Ella finds a way past them all -- and with the little occasional help from the kind and generous Prince Charmont.
An absolutely charming tale of strength and love.

Summary: Another Great Book
Review: This was the first book I bought by Gail Carson Levine. I had no idea how good it would be. It is based on a familar fairy tale(I won't spoil the plot), but it is cleverly hidden until the last third or fourth of the book. She has also changed the fairy tale so it is a lot more interesting than the original. It is a story about a young girl who was cursed by a fairy on her naming day. The fairy always gives gifts that are disgused as blessings, but are really curses. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy with a twist of reality . I would even recommend this book to adults.

Summary: One of my favorites
Review: This book is definitely one of my favorites. It's a delightful twist on the Cinderella story. Levine cleverly put a new spin on the old story, and that definitely made me more intereseted in the book. It's also very creative and imaginative, and it's hard to put down once you've started. I've already read this book countless times, and I still enjoy it every time I read it: it never grows old.

Summary: Enchanting (!)
Review: A wonderfully charming book. I truly enjoyed getting to know the main character, Ella, because she was so easy to relate to. Her spirit and rebellion made her very likeable. I laughed at her quick wit, cried at her hardships, and thoroughly enjoyed everything in between!

Summary: Ella Enchanted
Review: This book was very interesting. This book is based on a Cinderella story. It's about a young girl named Ella who lived with only her dad and her cook, Mandy, after her mother had died when Ella was almost fifteen. When Ella was born, she was given a curse by a fairy named Lucinda. The curse was that Ella will always be obedient. She would have to listen to whatever anyone commands her. Later, she was sent to a finishing school with her two selifish step-sisters. She stuggled with her curse for a very long time, but in the end, she finally got peace and happiness just like Cinderella.
What I like about this book is that it's adventorous and it tells you about a girl who believed in herself and achieved her goal. When the story ended, I pictured in my head, what would happen next and i tried making my own story. I wished that this was a never ending story so that i could read about what happened to her next after she married the prince. Did the evil fairy, Lucinda come back and give Ella's daughter a curse too? There were so many questions and wished i knew the answers. That was how much I liked this book.
This was one of my favorite books and i'm glad that my friend recommended it to me or else i wouldn't have known about believing in yourself. I would recommend this book to all those who like fantasy and fairy tales and especially Cinderella stories. After reading this book, i learned something from Ella and i think many other poeple have learned something too.
