The Guinevere Deception by Kiersten White

Go to review page

Did not finish book. Stopped at 26%.
Boring story that wasn't doing anything fun or interesting with the Arthurian legends.  Couldn't stand Guinevere, she was dull, bland, & kind of dumb.  I was hoping this would be queer, but other reviews indicated that this wasn't really the case (except for a side character).  I probably would've liked this book more if I were still part of the YA demographic, because it felt very YA.  Ultimately, this book just wasn't for me.
