Melanie Stryder refuses to fade away. Our world has been invaded by an unseen enemy. Humans become hosts for these invaders, their minds taken over while their bodies remain intact and continue their lives apparently unchanged. Most of humanity has succumbed. When Melanie, one of the few remaining wild humans, is captured, she is certain it is her end. Wanderer, the invading soul who has been given Melanie s body, was warned about the challenges of living inside a human: the overwhelming emotions, the glut of senses, 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. Wanderer probes Melanie s thoughts, hoping to discover the whereabouts of the remaining human resistance. Instead, Melanie fills Wanderer s mind 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 begins to yearn for a man she has been tasked with exposing. When outside forces make Wanderer and Melanie unwilling allies, they set off on a dangerous and uncertain search for the man they both love. One of the most compelling writers of our time, Stephenie Meyer brings us a riveting and unforgettable novel about the persistence of love and the very essence of what it means to be human."

AMAZING SIMPLY AMAZING PIECE OF WORK!
ok ...initially the first chapters are really slow but Stephenie Meyer has weaved a creative story that will appease her large fan base. With its engaging characters and interesting science fiction elements, you will be able to ignore the few chapters that contain too much description. Her use of vivid language paints a clear picture of the setting that allows U to put yourself into the story.I think the Host it's a really complex story. you get the chance to feel that you are this host even, or that this could be you. really good book *thumbs up *

Great!!!
So far everything I have read by Stephenie Meyer draws you in and wont let you go until you have finished it. This story comes from an entirely different perspective in regards to how we feel about humanity.
