a couple of weeks ago I signed up for a harpercollins profile, which basically just keeps me updated on different authors and such. today i got an email that i had won one of their firstlooks drawings. i'm going to receive one of the advanced reader copies of EVER by Gail Carson Levine, author of Ella Enchanted. While I do like Ella Enchanted (both the book and the movie), I've also read her book Fairest, which I also like, so I'm pretty happy to receive Ever! I like the way Levine takes fairy tales and creates strong female characters. Fairest is somewhat like Snow White, and Ella Enchanted is close to Cinderella. I wonder what fairy tale Ever is modeled after (if any)? I suppose I could look it up but I think I'll keep it a surprise. My guess is Sleeping Beauty.
