the host by stephenie meyer

I debated doing this or not. this book is such a long story and it's so complex. there isn't any one plot to it that i could find clearly. it's one of those books that you just have to read for yourselves to know if you will like it or not. i will say right now. i love this book. ive read it 3-4 times now and it never gets boring. i always find something that i missed or didn't understand the first time. the begining is always a little slow to me but i make it a point to not skip through stuff when i read. cause i usually miss things and wont know what someone is talking about. so anyways. for those of you who haven't read the book it's basically got two main characters. wanda and mel. only they are one person. basically aliens have taken over(not like in a stupid movie where they kill everyone) and they litterally are put into a human body and are in control of it blah blah blah (read the book cause its hard to explain) but anyways wanda is inside mel. usually the host bodies don't fight back but mel does and this lead wanda to find her family who is currently hiding out in caves in the desert. there she finds mel's brother jaime and her lover/friend/older boyfriend (hehe) jared and other members of her family and some other people. at first jared isn't too happy that wanda is there because they don't know that mel is still inside of her too. but jeb (her uncle) makes it clear that no one is to hurt wanda .at first no one is very happy about it especially kyle and his brother ian. so much so that kyle tries to kill her and in the process almost kills both of them but wanda saves theire lives. and ian gets over his hate for her and it leads to him actually having stronger feelings for her( trying not to give too much away) so now wanda is torn between the man she can't help but love because of mel's memories of him and the man who she loves but her body doesn't.

it's a very good story and one that you have to read to truely understand. i would go into more detail about it here but i don't want to give anything away. you really do need to read it for yourself. as always for those of you who comment below don't ruin anything for other's who haven't read it yet but feel free to give me your thoughts on the book!
