"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."— John Green

Teaser Tuesday (48)

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following!

  • Grab your current read.
  • Open to a random page.
  • Share a few teaser sentences from somewhere on that page.
  • MAKE SURE NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (you don't want to give too much away and ruin the book for other readers)
Share the title and author too, so that other readers can add your book to their TBR list if they like your teaser!

Avalon High
by Meg Cabot
Publication Date: December 15, 2006


         Good thing my legs were so strong.  If someone did jump out at me from the trees, I was pretty confident that I could deliver a good kick to his head.  And keep stomping on him until help came.
         It was right as I was thinking this that I saw him.  
(Pg. 15)

I love Meg Cabot!  Her Princess Diaries books are some of my favorites from my teen years.  She also has so many other awesome books, and Avalon High is no exception.  I love re-imaginings of mythology, and the re-imagining of King Arthur is great.  I'm really loving it so far, and the Disney movie was really good too!  Definitely a fun summer read!

    Sounds like a fun read. Why would anyone think about someone jumping out of the trees?

    Thanks for the tease! I've been very curious about this book for a while now. Besides loving Arthurian legend, Avalon, etc. I saw the movie adaption on the Disney channel. Have you seen the movie? Would you say it's a decent adaption or should I read the book?
