Please don't be mad at me, but I'm not exactly the biggest fan of the Twilight series!! I've read 
all four books and while they were a good read, they're not my favorite. I found them very, very mushy. I think I would've enjoyed them more in high school. That being said, I didn't have high expectations for Meyer's newest novel, The Host. Then, I began reading and couldn't put it down. I would've finished the novel in one sitting, but I had to go to work. I smuggled the book to work and finished it there. I really enjoyed the freshness of The Host. It told an alien invasion story from a new point of view. Actually it told the story from two points of view.

Actually it told the story from two points of view.The main character is an alien that has invaded a human body and is finding it difficult to take control of all the mental functions. The human whose body she took is fighting back and not surrending to defeat. They find themselves working together for a common goal and the outcome is one great novel! I recommend this novel for sci-fi fans and romantics everywhere!

Totally agree! I liked Host more than the Twilight series, and I'm not a huge Sci-Fi person, so that is saying something.
I liked this better than the series, also. I guess I am really a sci-fi fan
