The Host

With film release of Stephanie Meyer's worldwide bestselling novel The Host we must read what is taking theaters by storm - because everyone knows the movie adaptation of any book is weak in comparison, right?  And judging by the trailer, The Hostin book form is sure to be wickedly awesome.

So what are reviewers saying?  Here's a snippet:
“Stephenie Meyer, author of the bestselling Twilight YA series, makes her adult debut, The Host.  In this tantalizing SF thriller, planet-hopping parasites are inserting their silvery centipede selves into human brains, curing cancer, eliminating war and turning Earth into paradise. But some people want Earth back, warts and all, especially Melanie Stryder, who refuses to surrender, even after being captured in Chicago and becoming a host for a 'soul' called Wanderer. The straightforward narrative... shines with romantic intrigue."

Let's take our reading selves on a tantalizing SF adventure.
