Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine

Ella was cursed with obedience by the fairy Lucinda when she was a baby. Lucinda didn't mean to curse her, only to bestow a gift. Now Ella sets off on a quest to be free of having to obey every order that comes her way. On the way she faces many dangers such as ogres, almost being turned into a squirrel, and her evil stepsisters. Can Ella break the curse to save her kingdom? Find out in this twist on the traditional Cinderella story: a wonderfully crafted blend of romance, resource, and rare talents.
I really liked how Levine explains how each of the characters are feeling in precise detail, especially Ella. She really makes you sympathize with Ella and you feel what she's feeling.
