Cinder & Ella

Because every girl deserve her Own fairytale..

Funny, rich, hot, confident, book lover. Definitely 

"You want to know why you've never been able to make me cry? Because you're trying to tear down someone who's already hit rock bottom. You can't make me feel any worse about myself than I already do. You're pathetic, Jason - you and all the other jerks in this school who have nothing better to do with your lives than pick a cripple."

"He's loved you much more than if you were his own child, because I 

 his child and he didn't live me at all. Did you know he didn't even say good-bye to me when he left? I was eight years old. I came hone from school one day, and he was just gone. There was no note, no phone call, no anything. I just never saw him again.

I grew up without any father at all because 

 like a real daughter instead of me. Talk about having something thrown in your face all the time. How do you think it makes me feel to have to live here and see how happy you all are together? Do you have any idea how much it hurts every time I hear you and Anastasia call him Dad? To know that he loves you - really, truly loves you? I'm his 

, and he only took me in because he had to."

She laughed and I smiled again. Her laigh was my new favorite sound in the whole world.

"true beauty comes from inside a person. If you feel beautiful, then you'll look beautiful to others no matter what's on the surface."

"What could you possibly have to be afraid of? Any guy would have to be out of his mind not to fall head over heels for you."

It was salt in my wounds. He had chosen to play the hero and he the best dad in the whole world. He had just chosen to do it for someone else's family.

"If there was one thing I missed after we split, it was Lucinda's green chili enchiladas."

"You are still my best friend. You know I love you more than anything. I will always be there for Cinder, but I can't be a part of Brian Oliver's life. I'm sorry."

"Why even keep trying when there's no point? Ixm so tired of hurting. I'm tired of fighting. Tired of trying. None of it ever does any good. 

"There are only two kinds of women I the world for me now: Ella and Not Ella. I'll never be able to settle for anyone but her, and now I've lost her again."

"She was afraid people wouldn't accept her because of her handicap and her scars. People have been so awful to her since her accident that she doesn't believe she's beautiful anymore. She didn't realize that her scars make her even more beautiful to me. They show her strength.

She's been through so much, survived so much, lost so much, and yet when I asked her out she was worried about 

. She didn't think people would accept her. She was worried she would hurt my image - be bad for my career. She was afraid she's not good enough for me, but really, it's the other way around. I don't deserve her. She's the strongest, most amazing woman I've ever known.

"I still don't know her last name. I don't know where she lives. We were interrupted before we got that far."

Vivian nudged me with her elbow and said, "Only because you skilled the introductions and went straight to the making out."

"We're Cinder and Ella, woman! We're supposed to get our dairy-tale ending!"

Brian looked at the man and then back at me. His grin spread the entire length of this face and he said, "How about, 'And they lived happily ever after'?"

What would you do if your anonymous Internet best friend turned out to be Hollywood's hottest celebrity?Cinder458: Your blogaversary is coming up, right?EllaTheRealHero: Do all those Hollywood friends of yours know you use words like blogaversary?Cinder458: Of course not. I need your address. Got you a blogaversary present.Cinder got me a gift? My heart flipped. Not that I was in love with my Internet best friend or anything. That would be utterly ridiculous. The boy was cocky and stubborn and argued with everything I said just to be infuriating. He also had lots of money, dated models-which meant he had to be hot-and was a closet book nerd. Funny, rich, hot, confident, book lover. Definitely not my type. Nope. Not at all. It's been almost a year since eighteen-year-old Ella Rodriguez was in a car accident that left her crippled, scarred, and without a mother. After a very difficult recovery, she's been uprooted across the country and forced into the custody of a father that abandoned her when she was a young child. If Ella wants to escape her father's home and her awful new stepfamily, she must convince her doctors that she's capable, both physically and emotionally, of living on her own. The problem is, she's not ready yet. The only way she can think of to start healing is by reconnecting with the one person left in the world who's ever meant anything to her-her anonymous Internet best friend, Cinder.Hollywood sensation Brian Oliver has a reputation for being trouble. There's major buzz around his performance in his upcoming film The Druid Prince, but his management team says he won't make the transition from teen heartthrob to serious A-list actor unless he can prove he's left his wild days behind and become a mature adult. In order to douse the flames on Brian's bad-boy reputation, his management stages a fake engagement for him to his co-star Kaylee. Brian isn't thrilled with the arrangement-or his fake fiancée-but decides he'll suffer through it if it means he'll get an Oscar nomination. Then a surprise email from an old Internet friend changes everything....With a heartwarming online celebrity romance reminiscent of Jennifer E. Smith's This Is What Happy Looks Like, bestselling young adult author Kelly Oram has struck gold with her new adult contemporary retelling of the timeless fairytale classic Cinderella."A story that has it all: tears, laughs, sparks and a drop-dead swoonworthy hero. Give it a while and DreamWorks will pick up this story for a movie adaption, no doubt." Anna Katmore, Author of Play With Me & Neverland "Both funny and heart-wrenching, Cinder and Ella will give you all the feels. It's the best twist on the Cinderella tale I have come across. I am not just a fan of Kelly Oram. I am an addict." Cassie Mae, author of Switched & How To Hook A Bookworm "Cinder & Ella is a beautiful modern-day fairytale with a great cast of characters that made me laugh and swoon. It had me staying up late at night to read just one more chapter, and at the end, I was left with a big grin on my face." Cindi Madsen, USA Today Bestselling Author of Falling For Her Fiancé & Cinderella Screwed Me Over

Obviously, this book is not some evolutionary literary masterpiece, but it holds a special place in my heart. I read it first when I was around 10 years old (I had a very high reading level so I didn't think much when reading older level books) however the content is definitely not 10-year-old material but oh well lol. I pulled out my kindle last night and saw this book downloaded and decided to reread it. This sincerely is one of the few books that as I read it I seriously will skip lines and have to go back and read them because I feel like I'm not reading fast enough for my brain to soak up the words. The attachment I have for this book honestly might be an obsession but I could not care less. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a cute/fun/lighthearted/quick read (whatever you want to call it...)

** spoiler alert **
           From the first page I had a kind of comfortable feeling with the book. It was very light and the atmosphere in the book was very good. I also really liked the way the book was written and it really kept me glued to the book. But after a few pages the atmosphere changed and you were suddenly many months later and Ella was in the car with her father and you found out that she had been in a serious car accident with her mother and that she had not survived. . The atmosphere really changes, but I didn't really mind that much. The book was interesting but in a slightly different way. Her father's twins, her new home situation and all her scars are just a few of the things Ella has to deal with in the book. I really liked the way this is written about and how she deals with this and it was also very well explained so that you really get sucked into the character and can really empathize with what Ella feels. The only thing that differs from my 'vision' of the book and Ella's is that as a reader I already knew who Cinder was (namely Brain, one of the most famous actors in Hollywood at the time) but Ella did not have a suspicion that Cinder and Brain have something to do with each other, but she has no idea that they are the same people. The fact that you as a reader do know this also creates a certain tension and hope because you really want to know if and when she will notice this. I found the only less positive point about the book that you can see it coming from very far away that Cinder and Ella will fall in love and that even though they break up at a certain moment, they will be together again at the end of the book . However, this also has its positive side that towards the end, where they are still not back together, there is a tension and curiosity because you really want to know how they will eventually come back together and how everything will go again. will be alright. In short, I thought this was a really good book! I'm sure I'll read it again and I'm really looking forward to July 20, the day the 2nd part will be released.

Absolute favorite retelling of the story. The ending was not at all what I expected, but soooo what I wanted! It starts with the ‘classical’ stepmother and stepsisters. But the story changes and there is so much more going on than the classical story.
This is going to be a book I’ll reread so so so many times!

To be honest this book totally hooked me up that I am half way through the second book by now. So I fearlessly recommend this sweet sessy book for y'all. Whats the use of being a bookworm if you haven't read this cute story. 😌💙

Cinder & Ella is such a cute book. I read it when I was 11 and I enjoyed reading it. Now I am reading it again. I really love that there are both Ella's and Brian's point of view and the trope is the best. It's so cute book and there aren't too many embarrassing scenes. If you like trope (texting, celebrity x noncelebrity) you should read this book.

Qué adorable es la historia de Ella y Brian. Me ha gustado mucho. Es una novela llena de emociones, sentimientos y muy myy emotiva.
Es una historia que va más allá de una historia de amor. Es una historia de aprendizaje, superación y crecimiento personal. Ha sido una lectura que me ha emocionado mucho . Me ha hecho reír, llorar y hacerme sentir un montón de emociones.

Ella me ha parecido un personaje increíble. Un personaje lleno de dolor, con una historia y una vida con sucesos dolorosos pero que gracias a la ayuda de su familia, amigos y profesionales, consigue aprender a vivir con todo lo ocurrido. Me ha encantado los temas tan difíciles y duros que toca la autora, problemas que suceden muy a menudo y de los que se necesita hablar más. Y me ha gustado que la autora trate estos temas ayudando a la protagonista con ayuda profesional y que haga ver que pedir ayuda cuando lo estás pasando mal no es ninguna vergüenza.
Brian, nuestro protagonista, también me ha gustado mucho. Me ha parecido un personaje diferente, adorable y muy especial.
Me ha encantado su relación tan especial, además desde el primer momento. Su amor por los libros les unen de una manera muy especial y ha sido muy bonito leerles.

Ha sido una lectura muy muy guay, que he disfrutado mucho. Ha sido una ectura diferente, especial y todo un cuento de hadas.

I dunno I'm at like 12% and I'm rolling my eyes. Everyone is annoying and I just can't right now. Maybe I'll finish it later.

Now one of my favorite books EVER

This book is so good that words can’t describe it. Kelly Oram is a master storyteller. I loved every second of this story. Genius. Absolute swoon-worthy genius.

Cinder & Ella is such a cute book. I read it when I was 11 and I really enjoyed reading it. Now I am reading it again. I really love that there are both Ella's and Brian's point of view and the trope is the best. It's so cute book and there aren't too many embarrassing scenes.

3.5 Sterne
Kritisches Buch.
Ich finde die Charaktere haben nicht gut und nachvollziehbar gehandelt. Habe mich öfter über Aussagen aufgeregt. Ich finde bei solch einem Thema ist es er unpassender sowas mit in das Buch zu packen. Doch die Geschichte ist wirklich gut umgesetzt wurden.

Samantha 

I honestly didn't expect to love this book as much as I did. Thought it would just be a quick cute read. And it was cute, but it also managed to make me cry a few times. I felt a lot in this book. Really enjoyed it!

Tiene una cuantas cositas que criticar pero es Kelly Oram, es una de las pocas escritoras que en realidad puede meterme en una historia romántica.

Tengo una sonrisota en este momento, kelly paga mis cremas para las arrugas!
Reseña más coherente pronto

Reseña más coherente (supuestamente) [También en: El Extraño Gato del Cuento]:

No es un hecho desconocido mi gran admiración por Kelly Oram, sus libros siempre son divertidos y hasta relajantes. Mis ganas con este libro eran demasiadas, cuando me llegó el mail con el eARC, I JUST CAN'T. Dejé todo por leer un nuevo libro de mi ya favorita Kelly Oram. Mi amor anticipado no solo era porque la protagonista tenga el mismo nombre que yo, aunque no negaré que las bromas que Kelly hizo en un mail reciente sobre mi nombre, fueron DEMASIADO para mi pobre corazón. Mi otra razón para leer el libro es también algo muy personal, no les voy a decir... por ahora xD

Mi nombre aparece en un libro ♫♫ Pero no solo por eso me gustó!

El libro fue lo que esperé, me lo devoré en cuestión de muy pocas horas. No sé si te pasa pero cuando uno de mis escritores favoritos publicará un nuevo libro, el miedo y la anticipación compiten por ganarse mi sistema nervioso porque ¿qué tal si no me gusta? ¿qué tal si no es tan bueno como el anterior? Sobre todo porque la discapacidad, como mencioné en otra reseña, no es un tema que se tome mucho en los libros juveniles. Hay poquísimos. Me ha gustado mucho la introducción de Ella (no yo xD ok ._,) al libro, juega mucho con los cuentos populares, burlándose un poco, por ejemplo el que las protagonistas de cuentos antes de tener su final feliz tienen que pasar casi un infierno y, como bien dice ella, en teoría es genial, excepto si tú eres la que pasa el infierno. Para mí Ella, más allá del nombre, me fue muy familiar, facilísimo de conectar con ella. Hay muchas cosas en el libro que me hicieron pensar "creo que Kelly está escribiendo mi biografía" (lástima que yo todavía no haya llegado al Happily Ever After, así que entenderán...)

¿No aman cuando las escritoras hacen crossover en sus propios libros?

Fue una completa sorpresa y algo que es la primera vez noto, al menos en un libro de Kelly, que mencione personajes de otro de sus libros. Cuando leí quién aparecía o quién era quién en otro de sus libros, tuve que parar de leer para proceder con el fangirleo necesario. Créanme, era necesario. PISTA: uno es cantante. YA, no digo más, son solo menciones, así que no crean cameos ni nada... ¿o sí?

Nuestra protagonista es latina!

Y aquí viene me crítica, aplaudo mucho a Kelly sobre está parte de la historia, sobre todo porque no es la típica latina, al menos al inicio. ¿Qué quiero decir con esto? Es que la autora va un poco más allá de sus fronteras y se viene hasta sudamérica. Lo cuál es mega genial, casi no hay protagonista latinas de este lado de la gran América pero (tenía que haber un pero) lamentablemente mezcló muchas cosas de los latinos, combinó algunas cosas de México con cosas de Chile, al final utilizó los mismo recursos que otros escritores utilizan con los latinos. Quizá me esté equivocando, lo cuál es muy seguro.

Me gustó demasiado la historia, el romance es parte muy importante del libro, sólo que para mí fue más Ella y su recuperación y todas las cosas que pasan, como les dije, ella y yo no solo tenemos el nombre en común, sino otras muchísimas cosas.

Es una historia para cosplayers :D Además terminé confundida ._. Ella es bloggera. No hablo de mí, DE LA PROTAGONISTA!

Quizá xD No solo para cosplayers, obviamente, lo que pasa es que es un libro que habla mucho sobre libros, sagas, eventos literarios, firma de autógrafos y obviamente cosplay (algo que siempre SIEMPRE he querido hacer). Y sí, es bloggera, ¿entienden la confusión? ¿Estás hablando de mí de verdad, Kelly???

Miren, lo voy a poner así: Hay un montón de cosas que hablar sobre el libro, podría hacer este post mucho más largo, hay un montón de cosas que no les he mencionado, personajes que me han encantado pero quiero ustedes descubran. Te habrás dado cuenta que para mí éste ha sido un libro muy especial. Tiene algunas cositas que quizá no me convencieron del todo, Brian como personaje no me gustó tanto como había esperado, terminé encariñada y más interesada en Ella.

 (hide spoiler)]

Vorhang auf für einen der größten Selfpublisher-Erfolge aus den USA! Kelly Oram ist mit "Cinder und Ella" der Durchbruch gelungen. Millionenfach wurde ihr Roman geklickt, über 50.000 gedruckte Bücher hat sie verkauft. Sagenhafte 2.200 Kundenrezensionen auf Amazon mit durchschnittlich 4,8 Sternen spiegeln diesen Erfolg wider. Und nun endlich erscheint die deutsche Ausgabe bei ONE. Ella hat ein hartes Jahr hinter sich. Ihre Mutter starb bei einem Autounfall, den sie selbst nur knapp überlebte. Nach etlichen Klinikaufenthalten zieht sie nun zu ihrem Vater und dessen neuer Familie. Dabei will Ella nur eins: Alles soll so sein wie früher. Sie vermisst ihre Mom, ihren heißgeliebten Bücher-Blog - und Cinder, ihren Chatfreund. Brian Oliver ist der neue Star am Hollywoodhimmel. Doch der Ruhm hat seine Schattenseiten, echte Freunde sind selten geworden. Vor allem vermisst er seine Chatfreundin Ella, mit der er unter seinem Nickname Cinder stundenlang gechattet hat. Als die sich nach einem Jahr Funkstille plötzlich wieder meldet, ist Brian überglücklich. Langsam wird ihm klar, dass er mehr will als nur Freundschaft. Doch Ella hat keine Ahnung, wer er in Wirklichkeit ist ...

Another modern Cinderella story. But it was completely different from the ones I’ve read before because of what Ella is going trough. The book deals with bullying, depression and loss/grief. I really liked it because it was different and although you kind of know how it ends it was certainly surprising at some points.

Mandy Friedrich

Renditions of fairytales can be a little repetitive, but this book was anything but that. I loved the total twist it gave to the cinderella story and imo it's so much better than the original!

Totally Addicted to Reading

When I saw the title, I figured that this would be a re-telling of the story of Cinderella. Now I am a big fan of all things fairytale, (one of my favorite shows on television is Once Upon a Time) especially modern day fairy tales with a twist. I don’t generally rely on reviews to determine if I should read a book, but seeing that this author is fairly new to me I changed my modus operandi. The reviews I read indicated that this was a good read so I took the plunge and I was glad I did.
This is a beautiful story of love, acceptance and healing. Be prepared to be taken on an emotional roller coaster ride that will likely stay with you for few a days. It’s funny and entertaining. It had me LOL, smiling, crying and angry. I was especially angered when Ella’s stepsister treated her like a pariah. The tears were as a result of the degradation she suffered at the hands of her peers.
What I loved most about this book is the interaction between Cinder aka Brian Oliver and Ella. Their banter was fun. The fact that they never met added to the mystery of their relationship. Here are two persons who have been communicating by internet and IM for three years and were able to develop a friendship that would prove to be as enduring as time. This friendship grew into love that would be life changing for both Cinder and Ella.
Overall, I enjoyed this book. It was a wonderful read. The characters, the plot and the writing were delightful. Cinder and Ella provides die-hearted readers like me with the perfect tools to escape reality, even if it’s just a temporary fix. If you love the concept of happily ever after and that of being swept off your feet by prince charming, then Cinder and Ella would the perfect read for you.
NB: I received a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.

Lee Lovegood 

I think it’s just nice to read for most people. It is funny, sad, cute and thrilling. 

Finja Göken

Ich hab das als Hörbuch auf Spotify gehört. Die Geschichte ist so nachvollziehbar und schön geschrieben.

Where ever my Brian Oliver is, hit me up. I'm waiting for my romance

4.5

"A great character needs trials to overcome—experiences to give them depth, to make them vulnerable, relatable, and likable. Good characters need hardships to make them strong. The idea makes sense, but it still sucks if you’re the heroine."

Cinder & Ella Happy End - und dann?
