Avalon High

by Meg Cabot

Ellie's the new girl at Avalon High, and she's already attracted the attention of Will Wagner, resident dreamboat. But there's something strange about Will and his girlfriend, Jennifer, and his best friend, Lance. They seem to be caught up in a love triangle ala Arthur, Guinevere, and Lancelot.

This is a cute novel for young adults. It may inspire them to read more about King Arthur and his legend. On the other hand, I had a problem with the Marco character (Will's stepbrother), and the way that he was likened to Mordred. I immediately associated Marco with Morgan le Fay (Arthur's half-sister). Okay, enough nitpicking from the English major. I liked it. Others will like it too.
