amcg 's review for:

Avalon High by Meg Cabot
5.0

considering what this book is, 5 stars might seem dramatic, but trust me on this one.
i first read this book in, like, 6th grade and fell headfirst in love with it. re-reading it now, some parts have not aged well, but it’s such a cool story and surprisingly sweet and well-executed. this book is like a diamond in a pile of garbage 2000s-era-ya-romances. i truly love these characters and was SO DISAPPOINTED to remember how bad the movie sucked. if disney didnt buy up the rights to churn out that godawful screen adaptation, i wouldve directed a film version of this myself because it’s just that good.
other books in this vein i liked- “once and future,” “the mists of avalon.” cabot has a few other good stories, but tbh none that i’ve read come close to this one!
