What readers think of Ella Enchanted, plus links to write your own review.

i think that Anne Hathaway (Ella Enchanted Movie) is WAYYYYYY too old. She looks like she's 30 and has had 5 kids. Hugh Dancy is perfect for the part of Char though.

Hi I loved this book and it was great! I felt like I was Ella. This book is so romantic! I fell inlove with char!

what?! what kind of book was this! i didnt like it! i dont know why all you people say its great. its just another cinderalla story! YUCK!!!

how come all you people put ones it want that great! i agree with you brittany!

I love this book!!!! I must have read this 20 times! The first time I read it only took me 2 days. The second time it only took me 1 day! Out of 1-10 I give this book a 20 for sure! I hope you enjoy the book as much as I did.

ok. i only wanned to say something about all you people who say you couldnt picture Char. ok the book says in like chapter 2 or 3 an entire description of Char from the shape of his face to the freckles on his nose that were supprising on such a dark face ( the part when ella ran away from the funeral and went to the old castle garden and Char came after her to make sure she was okay) . i think it is easy to imagine Char if you have an open mind. USE YOUR IMAGINATION, SILLY! thanks bunches!

When I first picked up Ella Enchanted, I had no idea I had just picked up
what was about to be my favorite book. Gail Carson Levine did an awesome job of
describing all the characters, and making them seem so lifelike. Gail also
created a Cinderella with-a-twist sort of book that made it even more exciting.
In this book, the author used many mystical creatures such as Giants, Ogres,
Gnomes, Unicorns, and Fairies to name a few, and even made up special languages
for them that you could actually understand because they interpreted it for you
in the book. The suspense in this book only takes place because of the fairy
Lucinda. At Ella's birth, the fairy Lucinda bestows upon Ella the
"gift" of Obedience. Lucinda does not understand the dangers of this
curse, and will not take it back when Ella's Mother begs her to. If orders are
given to Ella, she has to obey them. Orders could be as disharmful as "Put
your coat on Ella." Or, they could be as harmful as "Chop up yourself
and cook yourself in a pot so I can eat you.

Ella Enchanted is an amazing fantasy story. I could picture each scene as I read and just couldn't put the book down. The prince and Ella's father's appearances weren't thoroughly described, so I had difficulty picturing them. I definitely admire Ella's courageousness and cleverness. I read this book continuously and keep wishing that the book was longer. It parallels to Cinderella near the end. On a rating scale from 1(poor)-10(great), Ella Enchanted deserves a 20!
