About this listen
In this wonderful continuation of the Cinderella story, award-winning author Margaret Haddix imagines a heroine who has gotten what she wants, not through some fairy godmother's magical intervention, but by taking control of her own destiny. The trouble is, now that her dreams are coming true, Ella has serious doubts about what "happily ever after" really means.
Just Ella offers young adult listeners a very contemporary take on one of the most beloved fairy tales of all time. Narrator Alyssa Bresnahan magically brings life and depth to Ella, who is determined to act on her heart's desires - even when they take her in unexpected directions.

Ella is 'not like other girls'
Ella's distain for all the females at the castle is annoying, and her adittues are tired and cliche. (the book was written in the late 90s)
All of the castle people (except the two on Ella's side) are flat, boring, exaggerated, and written to be terrible. This makes it easy to agree with Ella, but it is extremely unrealistic and peak 'not like other girls'
That being said, the story still was interesting and I didn't dislike Ella enough to stop listening. The narrator also did a good job, and was one of the reasons I actually finished the book.

Still holds up from my childhood!
I adored this book as a young girl and was reminded of it again recently. Still a fantastic listen 20 years later!
