"I found the early parts of this book to be somewhat confusing, and a little slow. Once I got into it, I really enjoyed it. Stephany Meyer is very good at painting the picture for you and provides for a wonderful
story where you really get to know the charachters and truly enjoy spending time with them."
"When I first started the book I felt as if it too was aimed at a teenage audience, as the Twilight series is. Not that it made this a bad book, but I wanted something a bit more sophisticated. The further I got into the book the more I liked it. The concepts got more complex, as did the various relationships. Although there is plenty of action, this is a very character driven novel and the personalities are well developed and layered. Though I believe the target audience is a bit older than the Twilight series, this book would be enjoyed from young adult and up. Also I think it crosses the gender line, as I know guys that have read and enjoyed this book as well as girls.
I highly recommend The Host, and if at first it fails to grab your interest, keep reading. In no time you'll be caught up in the plot."
"Very few humans remain on Earth. When rebels are discovered, they are captured by Seekers - the closest thing to a police force the "souls" have. Once captured, they are prepared for implantation where a small cut is placed at the base of the skull and the "soul,” a centipede looking creature, is put in the body. The "soul" connects to the body and takes control. The first experience the "soul" has is the receiving of the host body’s memories. Typically, the host recedes and leaves the "soul" alone to continue life as usual. For Wanderer, this didn’t happen.
The author of the number one bestsellers delivers her amazing first novel for young adults: a gripping story of love and betrayal. I Recently finished reading this a second time, and to be honest, it sounded even better than the first time I read it! The Host is a complex story. Not only is there a love triangle, but there is also the issue of violence in our society. It is an emotional ride from beginning to end - all 631 pages. Any science fiction fan will enjoy this story, but Stephenie Meyer may have done for science fiction what she did for fantasy when she wrote Twilight. You’ll want to put this one in your to-be-read-again pile!"
"Oh my eyes!! You can't believe such an ineteresting story like this existed. The moment I started reading this amazing...cool...interesting book,.... I just couldn't put it back down! Where does Stephani Meyers get her ideas!? As soon as I finished I just started reading the first page again. You should really read this book! At first it was kind of boring but then it gets really interesting and all and you just wont be able to do anything else but read while your mouth's hanging open and saliva dripping. This story is kind of hard to explain but easy to understand while reading the book. Im just burrowing my teacher's, ''the host" book but its like now..... I dont wanna give it back.... I want my own tooo(whinning and complainning)!!!!! Just try and read this book and you'll get the same feeling Im feeliing right now..or maybe worst!I recommend you (whoever you are ,my friend!) to read this book becasuse it just might be the one your looking for and I also want you to see the author's creativity and imaginations. I just need you to buy it and read it. It might not be the best but its one of the best! (sorry.. kind of doesn'nt make sense.) THANK YOU!!(^_^)!!"
