Ella Enchanted is my favorite book. Ella is a brave girl who is cursed by Lucinda and is bossed by Hattie and Olive.
Worst of all her dad and Step mother are forced to love each other forever by Lucinda so when father goes on a trip
she is left with Evil Hattie and olive and step mom. In the end <<edited for plot spoiler content>>.
fun

I LOVED THIS BOOK, im ordering it right now. no i have a habbit of falling in love with the charicters like harry potter for instance but this book took it way farther than a crush. gail made a great book. now i know theres a movie coming out but i know that its not going to be as good as the book. char is so hot, i dont even have to have a picture to look at and i know hes hot. This book sparks the imagination of all young readers. im thinking about writing a book of my own. sortof like this one but totally diff.!!!!!

This book is a great book. It is kind of like cinderalla but better WAY BETTER!!!!! If you have looked at my rating its much higher than that,
its probily about a 1,000,000 rating! Thats how good it is. Ella loves Char and he is the first 1 to say it. You could of pretty much predicted the ending but its supprised me way more than i thought it would. Its wierd how a fairy would want to be known and give gifts to people. It is a wonderful book and i know you'll enjoy it!!!!!!!:)
