 GREAT BUT NOT SPECTACULAR, 2008-05-31
THIS IS A PAGE TURNER READ IN IN 2 DAYS. I enjoyed it but 5 stars for me is something like the twilight series. 4 stars would be something i loved and want to read again. 3 is I enjoyed it but prbably will not read it again. It took a little bit to be pulled into the story and toward the end it seemed to drag on some. overall glad I read it and I will move on to my next book.
 BOOK IS INCREDIBLE, 2008-05-31
I am a huge fan of Stephenie Meyer and her works continue to amaze me. This review is not a negitive against the book content but against the narrator. I could read this book over and over but I can't stand to listen to it read to me because of the voice. Horrible choice of narration. I recommend just buying the book and reading it for yourself. Let your own mind be the narrator because the chosen voice is awful! Again, this is an incredible book though.
 Thumbs Up for The Host!, 2008-05-30
I really loved this book. I have read all the books in the her vampires series and I really loved them. I have never actually read vampire or alien type books before but I truly enjoyed it. It was a little bit confusing at the beginning but then I was hooked.
Amazing Book, 2008-05-30
I read The Host because I'm a fan of the Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer, and even though I thought the premise of The Host sounded a bit odd for my taste, I wasn't exactly crazy about the idea of Twilight until I read it, as well. But I was proven wrong when I began reading. I thought the beginning of The Host was a bit slow and slightly confusing, but then I quickly became absorbed in the story of Wanderer and Jared and Melanie and the hardships of being both a soul and a human. It was an amazing story and I happily recommend it to anyone who is willing to read it.
Another great one by Stephenie Meyer, 2008-05-30
If you've read the Twilight Saga then you know how talented this author is. However I didn't realize just how versatile she was until I read this book. I was in QFC buying groceries and again saw this great cover (the cover art of twilight was what first attracted me to the book)and decided to take a look. It wasn't until I had read the preview on the front flap that I noticed the author's name. I had no idea that it was the same author. Alot of authors stick to a certain genre or subject. Dragons, wizards, thrillers, mysteries, romance. Now this book and the Twilight Saga definitely have the unlikely romance in common. The type of love that should be impossible but refuses to be turned away or denied. Other than that and the way the books are written in first person, these stories are as different as night and day. Both are deep, personal and utterly believable. I've read this story 3 times since buying it 2 weeks ago and like the Twilight Saga I find new details, out looks and subtleties that I missed before. Again I highly recommend this book for all readers, even those who aren't so infatuated w/ sci-fi. I'm considering just recommending Stephenie Meyer as an author instead of recommending her work one by one. It's 4 for 4 so far. I can't wait for the 4th installment of the Twilight Saga and I'm also hoping that "The Host" gets a movie offer. And maybe a continuation (Hint Hint)?
