The Stowaway (Roswell High, #6)
by Melinda Metz (Goodreads Author)

3 out of 5 stars

Once Michael has been rescued from the government compound, there are still consequences that have to be dealt with. Cameron, the girl who was spying for Sheriff Valenti, is trying to be honest with them, but worries that she will lose her new friends. Michael has to make a decision about which girl he has feelings for; Maria, Isabel, or Cameron. And their new alien friend appears to have turned evil overnight! How can they protect themselves when they aren’t even sure what is going on?

I loved the Roswell TV show when I was a teenager, and it was so fun to rediscover this story through the books! I don’t think I would have enjoyed the books now as an adult if I didn’t already have the nostalgia of the TV show.

I like that the books are different than the TV show and have different plot lines. It keeps it interesting for me, and it’s fun to see how the books differ from the show. The character’s personalities are a little different too. Michael is way more funny and less brooding. Isabel is more haughty and proud. Alex is more confident. Max is way less calm than in the TV show. It’s weird to see these different sides to their personalities.

The writing is really dorky and has all the high school tropes that you would expect from a 90s teen novel. But I don’t care! I love it anyway! Most people would probably roll their eyes at the teen angst, but it just makes me laugh because I already adore the characters.

I can’t wait to read more from this series!
