Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine

If this book were a food/color/song/smell, what would it be and why?


Ella is a girl who is cursed with the "gift" of obedience. Ella's mom dies, and she is sent to a boarding school along with her two wicked "stepsisters". She runs away. Ella has a relationship with Prince Charmonte, but is worried that if she marries Char, the kingdom will collapse because she could do anything she was ordered to do (like kill Char). If this book was a color, it would be pink, because pink is bold and powerful, but also a little weak.
