Avalon High by Meg Cabot
Who is Will Wagner, and how does Ellie, the new girl at Avalon High, feels that she's known him all her life, instead of just meeting him?
Ellie is no one special, the girl who floats on a raft in her backyard pool, the one who runs track with her track friends, the one with parents who are medieval professors, the new girl at Avalon High who moved from St. Paul, Minnesota.
Avalon High may seem like any regular high school with Lance, the jock, Jennifer, the cheerleader, and Will, the quarterback, the senior class president, the all-round good guy.
But not everyone at Avalon High are who they appear to be, not even Ellie herself. What part does she play in the unfolding drama? What if the strange chain of events and coincidences she has pieced together means-as with the court of King Arthur-tragedy is fast approaching Avalon High? And what if Ellie can do nothing to stop it?
I thought this book wasn't the best Meg Cabot book i read so far, but it was interesting learning a bit about Arthurian(?) legend, (as in King Arthur, Lancelot, Guenevere, The Lady Of The Lake, Merlin, etc) and how the author transferred the Arthurian(?) legend, to modern life events, to make it more realistic, and believable.
