Roswell TV Series: Sci-fi Romance at its Best!

Stephanie Meyer's Twilight young adult book series has hit the best seller list with each installment, but it isn't the only series to take a crack at mixing Roswellsci-fi and romance. Roswell, a WB series that started in 1999 ran three seasons. It centered around a girl named Liz Parker (Shiri Appleby) who lives in Roswell, New Mexico. The pilot episode starts with a bang, literally, when a gun goes off in the Crash Down (her families alien-themed cafe) and Liz gets hit. In a split second decision, the bruiting Max Evans (Jason Behr) saves Liz's life by using his powers. Yes, that's right his powers!

What was the last fiction book you read for pleasure (not school)? Why were you drawn to it?

Do you enjoy books which have characters you relate to? Or who are drastically different than yourself? Why do you think your preferences are set this way?

Beauty Finds: Hair Help for the Curly Crowd

FrizzyWe are all born with certain unique characteristics: there are those who are blessed with full pouty lips  or sparking green eyes.
