Rating: Summary: At first I was hesitant Review: At first I was not sure if I wanted to read Ella Enchanted. My friend told me so many time to read it but I thought it looked stupid. Then, my teacher started to read it to my class. I loved it SO much I went out, bought my own copy and finished it before my class. Ella Enchanted is about a girl who lives in the country of Frell, Ella. Ella is very close to her mother and her cook, Mandy. But also, Ella is cursed. When she was born, the horrid fairy Lucinda put this curse on her, and she is always obediant. I mean, if someone told her to never take her hand off her head, he hand would always be on her head. Likewise, if someone told her to slash herself through the heart, that she would have to do. So, this book is about Ella and her adventures to break the curse.
Rating: Summary: Clear, coherent, and can stand on its own Review: I read Ella Enchanted, not realizing until the balls what I was reading. Then it occurred to me that this was a retelling of Cinderella--a very good one at that. The characters had much more depth than in other versions. Ella is a heroine and an extermely powerful role model in these times that teach girls to be so self-centered. She is rewarded and relies on no one's help to break her 'curse'. This version also makes clear a lot of doubts I had about the original story--like why did the prince fall in love with her? Why didn't the slippers disappear? Why did her fairy godmother just show up then? Ella has a personality of her own instead of being a 'sweet, kind, daughter'--as she's always portrayed.

The book has a few hard words and might get a little confusing, but other than that this book will make you want to read more! If you don't want to read this I'd also suggest the Harry Potter books!
Rating: Summary: write a senond one! Review: When i read this book, I couldn't put it down, litterally. I'm a school student, and i was spending my recess reading this book. I was also so moved by the ending, that I wanted to turn the page and keep on reading about their marrage and their children. I really think the author should write a second part to this book. It was the best book I've ever read in my entire life.
