Being a big fan of Meyer's Twilight series, I was very keen to read The Host, Meyer's novel for adults. The Host is a Science Fiction novel, set on an earth where the human race have been taken over by parasitic beings called souls. Only a few humans remain in hiding, or on the run, to keep their bodies from being implanted with a soul.
The Host focuses on a human Melanie, who is implanted with the Soul Wanderer. Unlike many others, Melanie's conciousness remains, and she and Wanderer are forced to work together.
This book did not compare to the Twilight series for me, but would be good to take on holidays or read when you are feeling a bit lazy. It's light reading and quite enjoyable, but I won't be re-reading it.
