 - The Host: an awesome bookI picked up "The Host" after finishing "Breaking Dawn". While the story and setting are very different from the "Twilight" saga, I was not disappointed at all. The beginning focuses mainly on character development, while the action picks up rapidly towards the middle of the book and does not let up. Stephenie continues to develop her characters well throughout the book. I was so involved in the story that I cried towards the end, and I don't cry easily. This is not a sad story; it is a very good story. I look forward to Stephenie's future works. Rating: - Buy it, read it, love it!One of the best novels I have ever read. One of those stories that you continue to ponder long after you have turned the last page. I will re-read this one over and over. Do yourself a favor and ignore the negative reviews. This is one of those books that deserves individual consideration. It's fantastic, in more ways than one. Rating: - Loved The Host! PLEASE do a series!!I had read Twilight and liked it, but didn't do the series as it was too 'teenish' for me. I was SO excited when I finished The Host! It was so good for me! I finished it a month ago and still feel 'incomplete' and am hoping this one is a series, as I will surely be in line to order the rest!! Loved it! Rating:  - The Host: My ReviewI enjoyed this book. Unfortunately i began reading it promptly after i finished reading the twilight series (recording breaking time of 1 week!)So i couldn't get that book out of my head and kepting wandering off track. The book itself was a great story and i enjoyed it. Although, it wasn't as good as Twilight. Rating: - Worth Reading but starts slowlySee other reviews for a synopsis. This novel starts out reading like a mediocre harlequin. The fault lies not with the author but with myself. It just takes awhile for the characters to develop. The main character goes through a very subtle but remarkable transformation throughout the book. So be patient with the beginning. It hangs together well as a whole by the end.
