The Host by Stephenie Meyer Audiobook Review

I cannot describe the amount of i love this book. Even though it absolutely was long, i still loved every page than it. I never read Stephanie Meyer before, but i enjoy this book. She is a real good writer. The only downside which i had was i watched the movie first - i really knew the thing that was going that occurs. But book am much better, with additional informations about Souls, and characterization. And, one important thing: you'll either love or hate this book. One thing also that we really loved was that it hadn't been an insta love, regardless how it seemed. The whole book occur in a long stretch of time - months actually, but nothing felt extremely rushed. And it can be also sad this is actually a love fourangle - 3 boddies and 4 souls. This story is definitely centered on romance and fewer on science fiction (whether it can even be put as sci fi, because we merely meet aliens...to see about a selection of their worlds). �What maybe it was that made this human love much more now desirable in my opinion than the love of my kind? Was it since it was exclusive and capricious? The souls offered love and acceptance to all or any. Did I crave a much better challenge?...Or maybe it was simply better somehow? Because these humans hate with a whole lot fury, was the opposite end from the spectrum how they could love with a lot more heart and zeal and fire?� STORY: World never been more perfect - there isn't any wars, no hunger, no unecessary pain, no illness. But, the planet belongs to the aliens called Souls. They are conquers and they're "parasites". They need hosts to live on - otherwise they The Host audiobook die. And when they discovered Earth which has been slowly being destroyed, they thought it turned out perfect possible opportunity to save it. Therefore, they occupy it and initiate fixing the Earth. Souls are kind, caring, intelligent race, but sometimes their good qualities can rival what they had done to mankind? They destroy minds of humans and also have the bodies. Only a few people are left on Earth, the unpossessed ones called rebels. And they wish to take their world back, nevertheless they can't do anything whatsoever against them. To make things go as planned and also to protect Souls, Souls placed Seekers to get something like a police for him or her. Seekers include the only one whorrrre not honest, who lie and who hurt - and they are generally eager to find every human there exists. This is often a story about Wanderer, a Soul who had been put into the entire body of Melanie Stryder, a rebel human. The thing that Wanderer didn't expect though was that Melanie remains to be alive and kicking in the mind. Melanie wants her body back, but she can't do one thing about it and Wanda wants her gone, because one's body belongs to her now. Melanie then shows her memories of Jared, her boyfriend and Jamie, her brother, and Wanda starts to realize that they slowly falls excited about those humans. And when she travels to try to find them, things don't exactly go as planned. The only thing left should be to keep moving forward. CHARACTERS: ? WANDERER/WANDA AND MELANIE/MEL: �Body and soul. Two different things� Melanie and Wanderer tend to be kind, caring and wonderful characters. They made me feel a lot, both of them will be the characters i seriously love, i loved that this book was told from Wanda's perspective. Wanda, the Soul, is one in the most style of them all. She is called Wanderer for just a reason: she never chose any planet, and he or she was using a lot of them. Earth 's all knew to her, and civilization is confusing to her at the same time...our emotions usually are not easy for her in the beginning. But, she starts to feel like Earth will be the planet to be with her: �This place was in truth the highest as well as the lowest of most worlds - the prettiest senses, essentially the most exquisite emotions.. probably the most malevolent desires, the darkest deeds. Perhaps that it was meant for being so. Perhaps with no lows, the highs cannot be reached.� And while she didn't like Melanie from the outset, as you can said for Mel too, she starts loving Mel, and one other way around, until they became friends and sisters by souls. But, even when Melanie spammed her mind with Jared and Jamie, she can't define how she likes to. She starts to love Ian, but her body loves Jared....also it makes it so confusing to her. Melanie is fun, the girl with sarcastic, strong and amazing. And she can be a fighter. She doesn't throw in the towel easily and her adoration for Jared and Jamie is really strong she starts showing memories to Wanda, so she could understand. I loved Melanie, she only agreed to be awesome :) �Melanie Stryder?� he asked, addressing her. We both started in the name. Ian continued. �I�d like the opportunity to speak with Wanda privately, should you don�t mind. Is there by any means that could possibly be arranged?� Of each of the nerve! You tell him I said no chance in hell! I do not such as this man. My nose wrinkled up. �What did she say?� �She said no.� I tried to express the words as gently because they could be said. �And she doesn�t� as you.� Ian laughed. �I can respect that. I can respect her. Well, it turned out worth a shot.� He sighed. �Kind of puts a damper on things, getting an audience.� What things? Mel growled. I grimaced. I didn�t like feeling her anger. It was much more vicious than mine. Get familiar with it. ? JARED: Jared is Melanie's boyfriend. They met when Mel was robbing someone, and they also both thought the opposite one was Soul... Except Jared noticed it first and that he kissed her, which made Mel angry and he or she punched him (he deserved it). �My name is Jared Howe. I haven�t spoken to a different human being in many than 24 months, so I�m sure I must seem� a bit crazy to you personally. Please, forgive can tell me your reputation, anyway.� �Melanie,� I whisper. �Melanie,� he repeats. �I can�t inform you how delighted I am to satisfy you.� And then, they little by little, fall madly in love. But, when he discovers that Melanie has disappeared and that Wanda took her place, he becomes cruel and unforgiving. He hurt Wanda many times and hubby said many unkind things. And it shattered both Mel's and Wanda's heart seeing him this way. In some way, i am able to understand what he felt, it's tough when the person you love is fully gone. And that other people took her place. But he didn't have for being that much cruel (not surprising why most people are team Ian). And even after all the, i started liking poor people bastard, along with the end i loved him. ? IAN: Ian is one kind of my favorite characters in this particular book. Even though he wasn't exactly kind to Wanda initially (as include him attempting to strangle her), he grew to my heart. He regret what he previously done to Wanda and very soon starts seeing her as herself, not just our bodies. He sets out to like her and in the end, he starts loving her. �It's not the facial skin, though the expressions into it. It's not the voice, but whatever you say. It's not how you look for the reason that body, though the thing you need to do with it. You are beautiful.� ? JAMIE: Jamie is Melanie's little brother. He was made to grow up sooner than he wished to. He became as an adult, despite his young age. He planned to believe that Melanie used to be alive, he wouldn't accept it otherwise, and he may be the one from the rare ones who believed that Wanda is wonderful person and that they should be given an opportunity... ? EVERYONE ELSE: Jeb was amazing. When he was young he learned about a cave, which fortunately, saved their lives by transforming into a perfect hiding area for humans who survived. The motto he's got is "My house, my rules" and everyone respects him. He supported Wanda, he saw her as jane is, he liked her from the beginning and the man was kind to her. Kyle, Ian's brother, got on my own nerves so frequently, but in the conclusion, i loved him too. Ian doesn't like him, and in actual fact, nobody really does, ultimately because of his attitude also, since he was irritating. Wanda's Seeker is one from the characters i am not sure how to feel about. We find out about her, but also for me she only agreed to be confusing. But she isn't a quitter and she or he knows what the girl with doing. And that makes her scary opponent. There are a multitude of characters i would like to talk about, however would be influenced to spoil and that we don't want that that occur, can we? :D OVERALL: I love this book. And i am sad so it ended. But, i most certainly will surely see clearly again and again, because i need to be with Mel, Wanda, Ian and Jared again... I am also happy that there's going for being a sequel and i also can't await it.
