Next I need to reread Fairest! That one was pretty good too.

I don't mind that they had to adapt it, I just wish they had more of the Cinderella fairy tale elements from the book. They did have the glass slippers in the movie, but it wasn't a real reference. The slippers were what Hattie forced Ella to shoplift.
Something that also irked me about the movie is that the fairy Lucinda never redeemed herself. In the book, she understands the pain she has inflicted on people and repents. She resolves never to do "big magic" again, and hence she makes Ella a fairytale dream out of ordinary things - like the fairy tale. All of this was discarded in the movie.
