another alien in roswell: impossible

but it is true. when a young man starts following michael around, he decides to get to the bottom of it. it turns out thathe is michael's long lost brother.(to go into how would take outa lot of the story line so i won't). isabel and max of course orvery suspicious and skeptical. is he wroking with their enemies?what reason do they have to trust him? why is he here in roswellafter so many years? for this and more read a very fascinatingstory. i thought it was great.

Another great book!

I am a huge fan of the Roswell High books, and this one did not disapoint. It is exciting, funny, shocking...just everything you'd expect from Melinda Metz's great series. One thing that was strange, and kinda creepy was a hook-up w/ two of the characters. I did not like that...but, that's Roswell for ya'--so many different things going on. In a nutshell: This is a great book. Read it! You will not be disapointed! :-)

Not Just for Teens

I have totally enjoyed this series. Even though they were written primarily for teens/young adults, it is so well written that adults will enjoy it as well. The fact that the author has most of the action/romance/conflict take place outside of the school helps this I believe. I look forward to the next two and hope that the publisher and author can be talked into more.Now for the book. The Liz/Max break up was upsetting and I hope that they can resolve their problems. Alex returning home was very much welcomed, he was missed. The situation with Kyle has got me waiting eagerly for the next one and I hope that we find out more about Alex's dad involvement with Clean Slate. I was glad that Liz and her parents finally had their discussion and Michael finding out he has a brother was a major throw. All in all, this book was just as consuming and thrilling as the other 7 have been.

Roswell Series Book 8 - "The Rebel"

A must read - but only after reading the previous 7 books in the Roswell Series. The Rebel is written in Classic Melinda style. Quick and easy to read and very entertaining. As with all the Roswell books, it is Full of surprising twists, suspense, humour and romance. The Rebel brings Alex back to us and explores the emotions felt and expressed by each group member when Trevor is introduced as Michael's older brother from their home planet. Liz is definately not dealing well with Max's connection with the collective conscienceness and finds comfort in someone elses arms. Melinda ends The Rebel with her usual "cliffhanger". Can't wait till 9 comes out.

A good continuation of the Roswell High saga.

I didn't think this was as good as the previous Roswell Highbooks, but it still earned five stars, and it's definitley better than the television show. Basically, this book is about Trevor, the older brother Michael never knew about, coming to Roswell from the home planet. Alex, who is back on Earth, doesn't trust Alex - and neither does anyone on the home planet. Meanwhile, Liz and Max are drifting apart, and she turns to Adam for comfort. I reccomend this book if you enjoyed the previous ones, but if you haven't read any others in the series, start with the first book and read the others in order.
