The Rebel (Roswell High #8) by Melinda Metz

August 22, 2013 0 Comments Regina

Hey, fellow Roswell-Read-A-Long peeps! Please enjoy another awesome GUEST REVIEW of The Vanished by Meredith Maresco of Pandorasbooks.org: Much like Vanished, The Rebel surprised me. It was better than I expected, though some parts left much to be desired. I still can’ t get over the physical appearances of the characters in the books versus the show. Every time Max is described with blonde hair and blue eyes, I just want to cringe. Also, my mind […]

August 19, 2013 0 Comments Regina

Hey, fellow Roswell-Read-A-Long peeps! Please enjoy this awesome GUEST REVIEW of The Vanished by Meredith Maresco of Pandorasbooks.org: As a fan of the Roswell television series, I was a little reluctant to read the books, especially when I found out the books actually preceded the television show. I had fallen in love the with actors who played the characters, and so many things get changed in the process of creating a show or movie based […]

The Stowaway (Roswell High #6) by Melinda Metz

August 17, 2013 0 Comments Regina

In The Stowaway (Roswell High #6), despite the fact that A LOT of serious life-and-death stuff is going on, I can’t get over how frustrated I am with Michael and Isabel from book #5. They still prove to be frustrating in book #6! At the end of book #5, our Roswell group has narrowly escaped with their lives after infiltrating the Project Clean Slate underground facilities to free Michael. Little did they know, they would […]

The Intruder (Roswell High #5) by Melinda Metz

August 14, 2013 0 Comments Regina

The Intruder is probably my LEAST FAVORITE of all the Roswell High books. My disdain for this book doesn’t lie with the writing, it lies with Michael’s story line. In book five, we pick up right where we leave off in book four. Max has just been saved with the crystals from their ship, and connected with the collective consciousness of his planet. Unfortunately, we lose Ray Iburg at the end of book four, and […]

August 7, 2013 0 Comments Regina

This third book in the Roswell High series proves again that Melinda’s writing and story telling are just as good, if not better, than in the first book. Things start getting a little more crazy, even by Roswell standards in The Seeker, and we learn a lot about our favorite alien-hybrids. In this book, Isabel is still struggling to get over Nikolas’s untimely death in The Wild One, and Alex provides the shoulder she needs […]
