The Host by Stephenie Meyer
5.0
You know you've finished a good book when you look at the clock and it's 1 AM!
I loved everything about The Host, that I can't even start to explain. But for all of you who are curious; I'll give it a try!
At first, I don't understand why they even made a movie of this awesome book, it would never live up to your expectations if you have read the book.
The fact that family, love and humanity are such a big part of this book, is what makes it unforgettable. It's a book like no others. Aliens who are honest and against violence, who just want to make earth a better place? That's something unique in a book, for sure. All together with the love-triangle, wich is just impossible to have a good end, is what you think. The choices Melanie and Wanderer need to make, the exploration of earth and humans and the conversations between Melanie and Wanderer are some of the things I won't forget.
Another cool thing about the book and something that is very unique to me, is the way Stephenie Meyer named her chapters, they are all named with a verb that translates to the events in the chapter.
I give this book 6 out of 5 stars, how's that for ya?!
“It's not the face, but the expressions on it. It's not the voice, but what you say. It's not how you look in that body, but the thing you do with it. You are beautiful.”
