This book was so boring, dull and slow that I never got past disk 8. I was very disappointed with this book, as I am a sincere fan of the Twilight series. The only reason to listen to this book is to cure your insomnia. | |

I bought this book with low expectations. I'm a huge fan of the Twilight series, so I thought I'd give it a chance, knowing that it could never be as good as her previous work, Twilight. Boy was I wrong!!! THE HOST was an amazing story that had you fall in love with all of the characters. It kept you on the edge of your seat, and hungry for more! I never considered myself a sci-fi chick. Nor have I EVER had an interest in aliens. But this isn't your normal run of the mill sci-fi book. It's in it's own elite group. I can only say, it was amazing! It might even be my new favorite!!!! | |

I loved the book and having it on audio makes it even better. I can "read" whenever I want now. It was a great price especially for a new audiobook. The seller had a great track record. | |

Stephenie Meyer doesn't dissappoint with this beautifully written and stunningly executed novel. Ms. Meyer's writing goes far beyond the norm as she delivers one of the most inventive novels I've ever read. I won't go into the plot; you can get that anywhere. Just know that you cannot go wrong with anything written by Ms. Meyer. THE HOST is part science fiction, part fantasy and part breathtaking romance. Loved it!!! | |

The Host is Stephenie Meyer's first adult novel, although there is nothing in it that is unacceptable to a younger audience. The novel is surprisingly deep. I loved the Twilight books, but let's face it - not so much thought-provoking. The Host, however, makes you squirm as you try to decide what comprises humanity... and whether as a species we are worth saving. Like the main character in the Twilight series, this main character, Wanda, is self-less and annoyingly altruistic. Hmmm. | |
