Ella Enchanted, by Gail Carson Levine. "All of my friends love it, and so do I! It's about a girl named Ella who is cursed at birth. A fairy gave her the gift of obedience, and Ella must obey every command given to her. At the age of 15, she becomes determined to break free of the curse. This story is also like Cinderella. (You can see where the name Ella came from) This is really a great book, and it would be a good thing to add to the book list. Thanks!"

Please, please, please, by Rachel Vail "was a good book for girls who are going through problems. It's about a girl that has been in ballet for many years and she wants to quit because she thinks it's time that she turns into a normal teenager instead of someone who must eat on a very strict diet and miss out on school activites. But, her mom thinks that she is very talented and says she must stay in ballet. Soon CJ gets so frustated at everyone, she lies. Majorly. And there comes major trouble with major lies! I recommend it for any girl that thinks she is being forced into doing something."
