Don't let Twilight stop you from reading The Host. In a thrilling futuristic tale, Stephenie Meyer captures the magic of forbidden love, the danger of living in hiding, and the hope that is found in numbers. As one of very few humans left in a world where the human race has been taken over by souls from another planet, Melanie lives to keep herself and her little brother Jamie safe. When she is taken and her body implanted with an alien soul named Wanderer, Mel fights to remain, and Wanderer battles with herself over the morality of who she is and what she has done.
Sharing ideas, hands, feet, and even people is a headache inducing task. But once these two girls find out they have more in common than they thought, a friendship is formed, and a shared goal forged. Wanderer and Melanie eventually learn to work together to save the human race. Meyer intrigues readers with her realistically relatable characters and a plot that continues to twist. The Host infuses hope into all who open its pages and reminds readers of the raw power they posses simply for being human.
