HI! I just finished reading Ella Enchanted and, to say the least, I absolutely adored it! I've also watched the movies and it's very different from the book, so I just wanted to ask you if you could change anything about the movie, would you and what would it be? Thanks!
Gail Carson Levine
Thanks! I'd get rid of the evil uncle and the talking snake, and I'd make Mandy the competent fairy she is in the book. Thanks for asking!

Hi Gail, 1. You were one of my favourite authors growing up, and have been a huge inspiration to me since! 2. This is probably a shot in the dark, but would you ever agree to beta read for a random goodreads follower? I have a finished manuscript and would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE a professional opinion to see if it has what it takes to become something "real", before I embarrass myself by sending it to publishers.

I am an aspiring 13 year old writer, and your book Ella Enchanted was part of what gave me the urge to write. It is possibly my favorite book ever! I think you are an amazing author, and my dream is to write like you do. You really made me feel what your characters were feeling. I started watching Ella Enchanted the movie, and it was very different from the book. I do like the book way better. What do you think of it?
