Book Recommendation


The Host by Stephenie Meyer

As a reader of the Twilight series by Meyer, I was intrigued to read her attempt at an adult sci-fi novel. I was not disappointed! While it is not a work of literary genius or even stunning with it's originality, it was a good, fun story. I wont lie, I even cried once. The idea of aliens taking over human bodies isn't original. I mean if you read the Animorph series as a kid, you already know the premise of this book. But in The Host the aliens are here to help rather than hurt. It is a story of survival, with a sci-fi, romantic twist. I would recommend it to any girl that has the time (it's a little on the lengthy side).
