Book Reviews of Ella Enchanted
Book Review: Great
Summary: 5 Stars
It's a classic. I've read Ella Enchanted numerous times and it never gets old. The author seems to have come from another time. She truly has talent with fairytales. The characters completely admiral, but none so as Ella herself. What's the worst curse one can be bestowed with? It might possibly be the one Ella has. No matter what, if she is told to do something she has to do it. She can dodge if you ask her, but hardly anyone does. When she is told never to tell of her curse, things could get bad. Finally after her father marries an awful woman with awful daughters, Ella makes a stand. She's going to find the fairy that put the curse on her if it's the last thing she does. This book truly is one of my very favorites. I recommend this to all ages and all genders.Book Review: I really didn't like this book
Summary: 2 Stars
I read this book when I was in elementary school, before the movie came out. I really, really didn't like it. It was confusing and the plot just wasn't that interesting. I think the movie might have clarified the book a bit for some readers. I remember trying to figure out what was going on because of the modern slang terms mixed with the Middle English. I didn't like the ending either. For a modern fairytale, the girl getting the prince is a tad bit boring.Book Review: Mr. B #18

I don't think that any author can write as beatifully as Gail Carson Levine.No wonder Ella Enchanted is a Newberry Honor Book!
Ella of Frell was given the "gift of obedience by a crazy fairy name Lucinda. She must obey all commands given to her whether it's going to finishing school, or putting herself into a boiling pot to be cooked!!! The friendship between Prince Charmont and Ella grows along the road of ogres, giants, elves, and fairies as they try to find Lucinda so she can take back the curse.
I doubt Ella Enchanted could being written any better and I definitely recommend this to all people who enjoy a good book, especially if you are a girl of age 9+. Ella Enchanted is a book that I am sure I will never forget.
Book Review: Nothing but praise
Summary: 5 Stars
Since there's already thousands of reviews on Ella Enchanted, there's no need to go into detail. I'll just say that this book is fabulous and has everything I could want in a book. It's wonderfully written with action, adventure, humor, wit, and a beautiful love story that isn't too mushy. I like re-reading this book so much that this is the second time I've bought it; my first copy was misplaced. This one is definitely Gail Carson Levine's best.Book Review: One of my Top 10!

One of my absolute favorites. I could read this book over and over again! This book is a fun twist on the Cinderella story that keeps me up all night reading, even the second time around. Every young girl should read this!
