Levine - 2 pts.

Love this book!
(Ella Enchanted is one of those where I love the book while I also loved the movie while it is different...)
I haven't seen the movie yet, but now that I've read the book, I totally want to. I loved how she created a different language for each creature. If only I could figure out how to actually pronounce everything. :)

When you see the movie, you'll love Anne Hathaway as Ella, but just know that they do change a lot. Go in not comparing it to the book and you'll enjoy :)
Alright, I read Fairy Bad Day, which was awesome and hilarious and I can't believe that skittles can be a weapon. :)
