gwenoliver 's review for:

The Host by Stephenie Meyer
5.0

I LOVED this book. This is saying a lot because I normally really dislike or at least am unimpressed by the new dystopia novels. Plus, Stefenie Meyer is definitely not my favorite author. I found her writing and the plot interesting but a little shallow, and I didn't really enjoy the style all that much.

In this book, I found the style improved, and the pot deep and unexpected. I loved the way that the characters developed, and the ending really was stunning. It is a bit mature, but mostly very tasteful. I was absolutely swept away, and I couldn't put it down for several days until I finished it. It is a little bit long, but I tore threw it in a few days because I enjoyed it so much.

I would definitely recommend this book to lovers of dystopia, Twilight, and modern literature in general. A great read.
