I wanted to express how pivotal Ella Enchanted was in my adolescent years and how it was a constant source of comfort for me as a became a young woman (ages 9 to now 33). I’ve probably (unashamedly) read Ella’s tale 20 times at the least, and eventually listened to it via audiobook after rediscovering my love for your writing in the last year or so. Because of Ella, I’ve been encouraged to laugh in the face of danger and to enjoy a playful spirit regardless of circumstance.
I just finished Fairest (for the second time) and truly appreciate how Aza blossoms throughout the novel and beautifully juxtaposes Ella’s tale.
I am better because of your writing and truly enjoy the wit that comes through each heroine you’ve created (After reading or listening to most of your works). Thank you for your literary art!

Dear Mrs. Levine,
I am a thirteen year old homeschooler and book lover.
I first read Ella Enchanted over a year ago and loved it. A few months ago I was at a bookstore and when I saw Ella Enchanted and Fairest. I bought them.
Since then I have read eight of your books, and right now I am working on The Two Princesses of Bamarre and enjoying it immensely.
Dear Gail Carson Levine,
I just wanted to say that I have read almost all your books and I love them. Ella Enchanted is one of my all time favorite books. I also loved reading your books about writing that you wrote from your blog. I just wanted to let you know I took a prompt from your book Writer to Writer about telling the story of an object from their point of view. I am writing a short story from the point of view of the Titanic. I have lots of resources and facts that I am reading so that it will be, for the most part, all true facts. Anyway, thank you for your blog, books, and all your advice in your writing books. I wish you the best in your future writing adventures, not that you need it or anything.

Dear Mrs. Gail C Levine,
First I want to say how I'm so happy to have found people like me who enjoyed your books. It was this year that I had the time and read Ella Enchanted. I watched the movie when I was young and yet continues to be one of my favorite movies of all time. I guess I was hesitant thinking that this would make me like it less. what a fool I was to think that. it made me love the book more than the movie. as I got to know Ella better. My question to you is, will there be a film series or a film adaptation that would reflect more of the book?.
When I was eleven or twelve a lovely school librarian gave me a copy of Writing Magic after thwarting my constant attempts to ditch class and hide away in the library to write. I read and scribbled ideas in that book until it fell apart and fell from my memory. Today while in a book shop a title jumped out at me. Then it came home with me. These days I am twenty-four and it is a lot less magical than being twelve. Rediscovering this book is the first step I have taken in years to change that. Thank you for your help then, and thank you for still being here now.
