Where do I start? Well I will admit I did not finish this one. I tried...I kept at it for over two weeks trying to force myself and it just didn't happen.I went in thinking "ok, second shot at this, movie previews look good. Just have to get through the book." So I get to about page 100 and ask a fr...

Since I haven't read a 600 page+ book in a while, let's take a moment to congratulate me. LOL.Interesting. I've been wanting to read this one for a while, mainly because it was by Stephenie Meyer and I wanted to see what else she could write about besides vampires. (I'm sick of vampires. Unless we'r...

So, The Host surprised me, and The Host disappointed me. Despite being told by several reliable sources that this book was actually . . . good? I still went in with pretty low expectations.

Ok so, I guess I should start by saying how surprised and impressed I was with this book! It was way better than I expected it to be. While I have never read any books by Stephanie Meyer before (and I know this is wrong to do), I silently judged her because I could not stand the Twilight movies! I h...

The souls infiltrate Earth because they believe the human race is not appreciative of their planet. The Host follows the body of Melanie Stryder, and how her mind refuses to allow the soul inse...

DNFStephenie Meyer seems to be one of those Marmite authors; you either love her or hate her, or her work just isn't for you so you tend to not touch it. I belong to the latter. I liked her Twilight series the first time that I read the books but not so much the second time round when I'd matured a ...

I didn't know why I bought this book. I bought this book three years ago. And I managed to somehow skim the book in these three years. I tried plenty of times to like this book. Alas, it is not my cup of tea.My first ever science fiction book. I never knew it would end like this.The reason why I gav...
