Summary: Read the book but hope for better things
Review: Well I am a total fan of Roswell, I read the Roswell High Books and Loved them. SO I was totally excited when this series came out. This was not a bad book but I think that Mr. Cox should have done better research. The characters just didn't have the same feel as they did on the show. They did a lot of uncharacter-like things. The plot was also a bit sketchy. I still recommend this to anyone who loves Roswell. I can't wait to see how the next one is. Hopefully they will have the characters act more like themselves. Also, if you like Tess (I love to hate her) you'll be disappointed by the fact that she never makes an appearance. Neither does anyone like Sheriff Valenti or Kyle. It's just the regular six. Like I said though, read this book, but pray that the next author does a better job.

Summary: horrible, boring, and violent
Review: When I bought this book right after my beloved series ended, I thought I was in for a good read... I was wrong. This book was incredibly boring, completely unbelievably stupid (the storyline was really dumb), and extremely violent. I was really surprised at how much violence and killing in cold blood happened in this book. The book was really boring and stupid. All my other Roswell fanatic friends felt the same (at least 10 people). I would never read this book again. Any of the other Roswell books, about the series or the Roswell High books, are a hundred times better than this boring violent stupid novel.

Summary: Loose Ends-A book that instead of tying em up, made it's own
Review: When I heard this book was going to come out, I had really high hopes for a great series, just like the original Roswell High (for those other reviewers that don't seem to realize that Roswell came from Roswell High--Melinda Metz had started her own series, and they got the show's idea from her books; that's why her series doesn't follow the show). As soon as it came out, I went to buy it. I started reading it instantly and found myself wishing for a painful dental procedure instead of reading Loose Ends. I was appalled at how little Greg Cox knew about the series (for the love of pantyhose, they don't drink tabasco--they put it on their food! And they don't use it for a quick pick-me-up either!). I'm a hard-core Roswellian and found so many plot bloopers in the book. He was constantly repeating phrases he had used to describe something: trigger-happy, cover-girl model, etc., etc. He also portrayed the characters completely wrong. Liz is NOT a weak, scared, little girl; she's quite the opposite after all that she and the group have been through. None of them are weak and I don't think the guy who accidentaly shot her would make her so freaked out (I mean, hello, wasn't she shot at in the first season's finale? I just don't think she would be so scared). Greg Cox also didn't really clarify exactly where on the Roswell timeline the book took place. Tess was gone (and how DID she leave?), Alex was alive..... how does that fit in? Where are the Sheriff and Kyle? And if it had season two stuff, he should have known that the Valenti family is part of the group. I thought the book was going to follow what had happened in the show while still relaying another of the group's adventures, but I guess not. And how could Liz and Max be together if there are still hints of season two happenings? If you ask me, this book didn't tie up the loose ends, it kinda just made it's own. (hehe, is that a cheesy enough ending sentence or what? And look at that title! Where has my creativity gone?!?)

Summary: Summer Tide YA Over for Roswell Fans
Review: Wow, the book was a definate tie up on the loose ends that the show started with regarding Liz's shooting. I think Greg Cox did a great job creating an intriguing story on this angle. I definately was drawn in by the subject because I love Roswell and since the season ended I needed my Roswell fix. I suggest you do the same.
