Cindy
I read Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine. It's about a girl who has been cursed from a fairy named Lucinda. Now that Ella is all grown up, she must obey every word a person tells her to do. Even though the command is mean like killing an person, she still must do it.


Ariel
This book helped guide me through my life and taught me special important things that I will never forget. It was exciting seeing Ella live through her problems and solve them. She's seems so strong and love it how she believes in herself. I think everyone should do that like she did.


Aelise
Ella Enchanted is my all time favorite book. It is thrilling,imaginative, and easily related to. The only problem I had with it though was that I couldn't really picture Prince Charmont. But, I think the main reason I love this book is that I can easily relate to Ella and her world.


Ella
I thought the book was very exhilarating. I could picture the ogres very well. I loved the banister scenario. They were a match made in heaven.


Aleisha
I enjoyed this story very much. I must say it was creative and written very well. I have read this book numerous times and have enjoyed it just as much each and every time.


Anonymous
I think that Ella Enchanted is the most wonderful, interesting and enjoyable book I have ever read. It is like the Cinderella story only with more details and anticipation. I love this book and read it frequently.


Kim
I think that this book was awesome. Its my favorite book and I have read it many times.


Lisa
I thought it was amazing since my favorite tale is Cinderella. There was only one thing that bothered me and it was that I couldn't picture what the prince looked like. It was an unusual look she described. But other than that it was very good. Very creative and she reminded me of myself which is probably why I related to it.
