 Hey Everyone!

Hey Everyone!! Week 4 is done and over with at Meg-A Readers! I'm excited to share with you all my review of Meg's Avalon High Manga series!! I reviewed  Avalon High  last year during Meg-A Readers, and have been wanting to read the manga continuation series ever since I first read Avalon back in high school! From Goodreads: Avalon High: Coronation Volume 1: The Merlin Prophecy Being a new student at Avalon High has been exciting for Ellie, to say the least--she's an honor student, a star on the track team, and, oh yeah, dating the super-hot class president, Will. Who also happens to be the alleged reincarnation of King Arthur. Ellie couldn't be happier to have Will in her life, but she's also worried that his estrangement from his parents is tearing him apart.
