I was sadly disappointed with this novel. It's supposed to be fun fluff. For the most part, it was cute. Unfortunately, it suffered from the same tired formula Willis has used in most of her books. People don't listen to the protagonist, they talk over him/her, the protagonist gets into some kind of trouble, someone saves them. My disappointment was compounded by a tediously trite ending. I've really liked some of Willis' other books, including Blackout and Passage. While they had the Willis formula, the circumstances and specifics were enough to make them terrific books. Roswell simply didn't have enough interesting circumstances or specifics, despite it being about UFOs and aliens. The one thing it had going for it: it was a very fast read.
