The Host

 I finished "The Host" while camping. And loved it! Melanie is no Bella, and Jared is hardly comparable to Edward... so don't expect it to be if you're planning to read it. The whole concept was intriguing and the characters were so real! Stephenie Meyer is Amazing. The alien invasion thing wasn't so weird that you can't get over it. Even if you don't like science fiction, you'll enjoy this! 4.5 Stars out of 5 from me! (Only because I still love the Twilight series more!)

Thanks for this post...I've been "reading" it for over a month now (along with 5 other books that I finished) and I just can't seem to keep going. It's definetly not the Twilight series, but I will get through it! :-)

Good to know. I bought this book about a month ago, but I just couldn't keep reading, so I distract myself with other books. I guess I should just be patient and give it a try. I like Sci Fi after all.

I love that you are a Stephenie Meyer fan, too. She is good. The Twilight series is the best, I am anxiously waiting the release of Breaking Dawn (love the countdown counter on the front page). I agree with you about the Host. I am reading it now and am enjoying it.
