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 of the usb ports. I never read Stephanie Meyer before, but i really like this book. She is actually a good writer. The only downside that we had was that we watched the movie first - well, i knew that which was going that occur. But book was much better, with an increase of informations about Souls, and much better characterization. And, one important thing: you may either love or hate this book. One thing also that we really loved was that it hadn't been an insta love, however it seemed. The whole book occur in a long length of time - months actually, but nothing felt extremely rushed. And it can be sad until this is actually a love fourangle - 3 boddies and The Host audiobook review 4 souls. This story is in fact centered on romance and much less on science fiction (when it can even be put as sci fi, because we merely meet aliens...and learn about a selection of their worlds). �What maybe it was that made this human love much more desirable if you ask me than the love of my very own kind? Was it given it was exclusive and capricious? The souls offered love and acceptance to any or all. Did I crave a better challenge?...Or could it have been simply better somehow? Because these humans hate with a great deal fury, was the opposite end on the spectrum how they could love with increased heart and zeal and fire?� STORY: World hasn't been more perfect - there won't be wars, no hunger, no unecessary pain, no illness. But, the earth belongs to the aliens called Souls. They are conquers plus they are "parasites". They need hosts to live on - otherwise they die. And when they discovered Earth that was slowly being destroyed, they thought that it was perfect opportunity to save it. Therefore, they occupy it you need to fixing the Earth. Souls are kind, caring, intelligent race, but could their good qualities can rival what they had done to people? They destroy minds of humans and share the bodies. Only a couple of people are left on Earth, the unpossessed ones called rebels. And they wish to take their world back, nevertheless they can't do one thing against them. To make things go as planned also to protect Souls, Souls placed Seekers being something like a police for the children. Seekers are definitely the only one who will be 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 was simply put into our bodies of Melanie Stryder, a rebel human. The thing that Wanderer didn't expect though was that Melanie remains alive and kicking in their mind. Melanie wants her body back, but she can't do just about anything 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 goes toward try to find them, things don't exactly go as planned. The only thing left is usually to keep moving forward. CHARACTERS: ? WANDERER/WANDA AND MELANIE/MEL: �Body and soul. Two different things� Melanie and Wanderer are kind, caring and wonderful characters. They made me feel a great deal, both of them include the characters i must say i love, and that i loved what sort of book was told from Wanda's perspective. Wanda, the Soul, is one with the most type of them all. She is called Wanderer for just a reason: she never concluded on any planet, and she or he was with a lot of them. Earth is perhaps all knew to her, and humanity 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 on her behalf: �This place was actually the highest and also the lowest coming from all worlds - the most wonderful senses, essentially the most exquisite emotions.. one of the most malevolent desires, the darkest deeds. Perhaps that it was meant being so. Perhaps devoid of the lows, the highs can't be reached.� And while she didn't like Melanie at the start, as is possible said for Mel too, she starts loving Mel, and one other way around, until they became friends and sisters by souls. But, regardless of whether Melanie spammed her mind with Jared and Jamie, she can't truly know how she likes to. She sets out to love Ian, but her body loves Jared....and yes it makes it so confusing to her. Melanie is fun, she's sarcastic, strong and amazing. And she is really a fighter. She doesn't throw in the towel easily and her adoration for Jared and Jamie can be so strong she starts showing memories to Wanda, so she could understand. I loved Melanie, she was only awesome :) �Melanie Stryder?� he asked, addressing her. We both started in the name. Ian took. �I�d like the possible opportunity to speak with Wanda privately, in the event you don�t mind. Is there however that might be arranged?� Of each of the nerve! You tell him I said no chance in hell! I do not similar to this man. My nose wrinkled up. �What did she say?� �She said no.� I tried to state the words as gently while they could be said. �And she doesn�t� as if you.� Ian laughed. �I can respect that. I can respect her. Well, that it was 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 employed to it. ? JARED: Jared is Melanie's boyfriend. They met when Mel was robbing someone, plus they both thought another one was Soul... Except Jared noticed it first and the man kissed her, which made Mel angry and she or he punched him (he deserved it). �My name is Jared Howe. I haven�t spoken completely to another human being in many than 2 yrs, so I�m sure I must seem� somewhat crazy for your requirements. Please, forgive that will tell me your company name, anyway.� �Melanie,� I whisper. �Melanie,� he repeats. �I can�t inform you how delighted I am in order to meet you.� And then, they gradually, just fall in love. But, when he realizes that Melanie fully gone and that Wanda took her place, he becomes cruel and unforgiving. He hurt Wanda many times and the man said several unkind things. And it shattered both Mel's and Wanda's heart seeing him prefer that. In some way, i'm able to understand what he felt, it is sometimes complicated when the person you love has disappeared. And that another individual took her place. But he didn't have to become that much cruel (perfectly logical why many people are team Ian). And even after so much, i started liking the indegent bastard, plus in the end i loved him. ? IAN: Ian is truly one of my favorite characters on this book. Even though he wasn't exactly kind to Wanda initially (as include him looking to strangle her), he grew to my heart. He regret what he done to Wanda and very quickly starts seeing her as herself, not just the entire body. He begins to like her and ultimately, he starts loving her. �It's not the eye, even so the expressions upon it. It's not the voice, but everything you say. It's not how you look because body, however the thing you choose to do with it. You are beautiful.� ? JAMIE: Jamie is Melanie's little brother. He was instructed to grow up prior to he planned to. He became as an adult, despite his young age. He wished to believe that Melanie had been alive, he wouldn't accept it otherwise, and he will be the one with the rare ones who believed that Wanda is wonderful person and that they should be given a possibility... ? EVERYONE ELSE: Jeb was amazing. When he was young he learned about a cave, which fortunately, saved their lives by being a perfect hiding area for humans who survived. The motto he's is "My house, my rules" and everyone respects him. He supported Wanda, he saw her as jane is, he liked her from the beginning anf the husband was kind to her. Kyle, Ian's brother, got in this little nerves so frequently, but in the final, i loved him too. Ian doesn't like him, and, no-one really does, ultimately because of his attitude and furthermore, as he was irritating. Wanda's Seeker is one from the characters i am not sure how to feel about. We find out about her, except for me she only agreed to be confusing. But she isn't a quitter and she or he knows what she's doing. And that makes her scary opponent. There a multitude of characters i have to talk about, however i would be lured to spoil and that we don't want that that occur, should we? :D OVERALL: I love this book. And i am sad who's ended. But, let me surely see clearly again and again, because i desire to be with Mel, Wanda, Ian and Jared again... I am also happy that there exists going to become a sequel we can't lose time waiting for it.
