Wow! A love story almost as compelling and epic as Bella and Edward.

I picked up The
Host
the same day as Breaking Dawn, but after being somewhat disappointed by the latter I wasn't exactly eager to read the former.
The description of The Host sounded like a very hardcore science fiction effort, one that I was afraid would not be able to support a credible love story. I am more delighted than I can say that I was wrong. This book has one of the most gut wrenching love stories ever put to paper. The sci-fi elements (despite being among my least favorite genres) didn't bother me in the slightest . On the contrary, I found them to be provocative and deeply emotional.
I found myself fully invested in all the characters (even the non-human ones) and even cried at the end.
*SPECIAL NOTE TO TWILIGHT FANS* ~ Meyers really seems to enjoy the dynamic of two men in love with different aspects of the same woman.

this book was absolutely amazing. it was kind of slow and a bit hard to understand in the first few chapters, but once you read through those...WOW! i actually cried toward the end, and i NEVER cry. my mind was blown!

Magnificent!
It is rare that I read a book, then immediately turn around and begin again. That is how much I enjoyed this work of Stephanie Meyer. Very original, sympathetic, and beautiful. Wanda is by far Meyer's greatest creation.
Wasn't sure I would but I LOVED this book!
After reading the Twilight series twice I needed something a bit different so I thought I would give this book a try - boy am I ever glad I did. I loved this book so much. It was just a little slow moving at first but once you get a few chapters into it - wow did it ever take off. I'm recommending it to everyone I know who loves a good read. I truly hope that Stephenie Meyer will write the sequel and include more about Melanie and Wanda. I'd love to have more from Mel's perspective and maybe a love interest for Jamie. Anyway I'm SO glad I gave this book a chance - if you do - you'll be so glad you did!
