Book: Avalon High
Author: Meg Cabot
Audience: Teen
In a Nutshell: King Arthur & Co. reappear in high school form
Elaine is the new kid at Avalon High. Her professor parents have moved from Minnesota to Annapolis, MD, for their one-year sabbatical. Elaine is just biding her time, floating in the pool and waiting for the year to be over so she can go back to her own friends and school. But then she meets Will on a jog in the park, and she is drawn into a high school drama with characters that bear an uncanny resemblance to King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, and the rest.
Fun reading, even if I did guess the ending very early on; slightly more meaty than Cabot's usual fun fluff, thanks to the infusion of Arthurian legend, but still easy going.
