A review by alyshadeshae
Avalon High by Meg Cabot
4.0
My full review is here on my personal website. I'll post a few excerpts here, though:
3.5 out of 5.0 stars
I liked this book. It wasn’t anything spectacular, but it was enjoyable. The idea behind the story was pretty cool, though.
Also, I watched the DCOM (Disney Channel Original Movie) based on the book and it was nothing like the book. The only thing they got right was that these people are reincarnations of King Arthur’s court. So, yeah…
The very worst thing about this book is the way Ellie’s character behaves. She just doesn’t act like a normal teenage girl; more like the way adults think normal teenage girls act than a real girl. Oh, and I don’t mean this in the way the character’s mother means it when she tells Ellie that she’s not normal.
The very best thing about this book is the way the Arthurian legend ties in with everything.
