I loved all the characters and hope that you decide to write another one to continue. it was the coolest alien book that i have ever read. I really liked Ian, even though Jared sounds better looking, I really think he is a gentle man. do you think it would become a movie? i mean i really love that Twilight is becoming a movie, but the host would be the best alien movie to go and see, but make sure you have a really cute guy playing Ian, and Jared. I loved all the twilight books and hope that I win the competition becasue I really don't think my friend will let me borrow her books anymore, I have read tham dozens of times. I cant wait till the movie comes out, it will be so much fun to watch the cullens on screen instead of picturing them all in my head, even though I like doing that because you can day dream about Edward all day long!!! :) I totally loved the host.

You may not see it as i do but it IS a love story and truly shows what it means to be human more than it does show the sci-fi part so people who don't like sci-fi this truly is the book for people to start liking it. I am in absolutely love with this book. I read it starting at 8pm and as soon as i turned the last page i looked up to see it was 5:30am!!!!

LOL It was one of my favorite episodes of the show. Anywho, I will be posting my review today. I just wanted to stop by and say thanks for reviewing this book. I liked The Host a lot more than I thought I would after the Breaking Dawn debacle...ok the disappointment. Yes, I just finished this book, and yes, I saw the Star Trek parallel!

I have to say, at first I almost gave up on the host. I was confused the first two chapters. But I really enjoyed the Twilight series and didn't want to give up, so I started over, and somehow, around chapter 4 it started to click. I was so glad when I started to understand the story line, and who everyone was. I enjoyed the book very much. I didnt think it was to wordy, loved the descriptions, and the end was exciting, what was with the two blank pages at the end though?I thought it was over, and was relieved when I realized it wasn't.

However, I picked it up in the airport, and read the entire thing on a 4 hour flight. I agree it had slow spots, but it kept me entertained, and I think it was definitely as good/better than the Twilight series! I found the emotions of the story incredibly captivating. I laughed and cried throughout the story. I'm hoping for a sequel to it!

I would highly reccomend it to anyone-as for a movie, after the first 5-6 chapters I told my husband I thought this would make an awesome movie-if done correctly!
