"Product Description
The author of the Twilight series of # 1 bestsellers delivers her brilliant first novel for adults: a gripping story of love and betrayal in a future with the fate of humanity at stake.
Melanie Stryder refuses to fade away. The earth has been invaded by a species that take over the minds of their human hosts while leaving their bodies intact, and most of humanity has succumbed.
Wanderer, the invading "soul" who has been given Melanie's body, knew about the challenges of living inside a human: the overwhelming emotions, the too vivid memories. But there was one difficulty Wanderer didn't expect: the former tenant of her body refusing to relinquish possession of her mind.
Melanie fills Wanderer's thoughts with visions of the man Melanie loves-Jared, a human who still lives in hiding. Unable to separate herself from her body's desires, Wanderer yearns for a man she's never met. As outside forces make Wanderer and Melanie unwilling allies, they set off to search for the man they both love.
Featuring what may be the first love triangle involving only two bodies, THE HOST is a riveting and unforgettable novel that will bring a vast new readership to one of the most compelling writers of our time." _________________
i love the host i bought it 3 days after it came out and ive read it about 4 times now . . . i couldnt put it down _________________ ♥Love♥. . Flowers and a whole lot of other not as important stuff XP
at the beginning wanderer says that she has a knew sence: scent.
but then later when she finds out what the people in the caves are doing to the souls they capture, as she's walking to the hospital place she says she smells something, and she says she should recognise the smell. it turns out to be a soul's blood, but since she's never seen that on earth before, and she hasn't had a sence of smell before earth, how can she recognise the smell??
I just bought the book today... I hope it's good! I'll post more after I've read it. _________________ Blame it on a simple twist of fate. ~ Bob Dylan "To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice. With pie." ~ Anya <3

Spoiler:
its like an acquire smell, since she is an alien, she knows what she would smell like, just how she knows she's a female, but who knows???

DON'T EAT THE DAISIES
the person who bought it for me for my birthday said the lady at the bookshop thinks it's better.
i think it's almost as good. but it's a lot longer and at first it's sort of hard to get through. but once you get about halfway through it gets really exciting and a lot better. _________________
DON'T EAT THE DAISIES
yeah its really interesting, I'm glad you love it!!!! The end is the best part you'll see ^_^
I agree the end is definetly the best part. I really wish she would write a sequel!She never said she wouldn't but she never said she would though.
Spoiler:
When Melanie and Wanda get their own bodies, I wanted to scream. Before that, I thought it wouldn't work out. But I'm so glad it did. And I hope that Kyle learns to love Sunny, or already has. Kinda like jared learns to love Wanda, except in a diffferent way then how he loves Mel. The end implies that there is hope for humanity, and that would make a great theme for a sequel, in my opinion.
