Hmm . . .
Hmm . . . what else am I supposed to say about this book? It was . . . it was different. I usually am kinda in to ghost stories, but not this one. I think that it was just gettin' a little too technical for me. I mean, there were all of these scientific terms and stuff and . . . Well, I don't really know how to say it except that the book was missing something. It was definitely missing a lot of the relationship aspects that we've all grown to love so much. Like, for example, there was this whole fight scene between Michael and Maria, and it was never really resolved. I happen to be a HUGE Michael and Maria fan, and when they throw something like that in a book, it makes me upset.

I'm not trying to say anything bad about Mel Odom's work. I think that any writer who has enough courage to write a book and get it out where the public can read it without knowing what they're gonna think deserves a round of applause. *clap, clap, Mel Odom. You're very brave* But, honestly, I didn't like the book. I actually haven't even finished it yet because I'm not interested in it, and I've had it for a year now. I've still got about 20 pages left.

Nothing against the author, I just didn't like the book, and that's my personal opinion.

[my opinion]
I personaly LOVE the roswell books by melinda metz and the show.Roswell is one of my fave shows ever. I started to read the books around the same time the show started and i liked the fact that the books are difrant from the shows. That way you don't know every thing that will happen. before it happens. And if you read the books and pay attention to the shows there are tons of stuff that are linked together just not the way you exspect it to be. Like Isabels boy friend nickolas hes also int the show. But he dated the Isabel that lived on the plant and he didnt die. Plus in the books theres a lot more people that die. And ensted of a brother micheal finds out he has a sister ensted of a brother. Plus she dosent act the brother from the books. Its ok thoe because that makes it more fun...

I can't believe Melinda Metz has allowed this!
This series is apalling! I read the series Roswell High, by Melinda Metz, and was ecstatic when i found out they were making a tv show out of it. Well, after about two shows, i was sooo angry! They completely destroyed the entire story! These books are based on a bad tv show that is based on some awesome books. I don't understand why Melinda Metz would allow such a monstrosity to be connected to her series. This is completely ridiculous, and if you consider yourself a fan of all this, I highly suggest you read the real story, the one that was stolen and mutilated. It's far better than anything these ...wanna-be-writers could come up with. I only gave this a star because i had to in order to write the review.
