The Host - The Book

So i went on a girls night out and this 19 year old said to me, i quote
' OMG The Host is so good. The way that Stephanie Meyer related it to the Twilight Saga was incredible.'
- My response
' Uhmm darl, sorry to disappoint you but The Host has absolutly nothing to do with the Saga.' i the continued to rattle about what it was about.

- Her response
'No you don't understand Mike, i know what i'm talking about i just finished reading it.'

- My response
"Trust me, i'm the biggest fangirl around. i own every book, poster, bag,keyring and merchable item.'

- Her response
'Whatever you homo, you shouldn't even be here.'

at that point i turned and walked away like the sensible person i am. After all a true twilight fan would know the difference between The Host and the Saga.

lol. some people are idiots. after i read the host i thought of a couple of similarities. it's been awhile... but mmmm jamie? the little brother? reminded me a LOT of seth. and melanie, leah. and there were a couple more. but i think that wasn't intentional lol. just my twilighty brain working overtime.

it wasn't just that she was totally ignoring what i was saying and refusing to believe me, it was that she also used my sexuality to try and get a bigger response out of me. i consider myself on of the girls as trying to get along with straight guys, i find very difficult so that's why i went along. but if it was me and her in the room i would have rearranged her face....permanantly!!

haha oh rhimike.

I liked The Host alot! Great book.

Shit, I still need to get around to reading it!!

the first half is so boring. it only gets good about halfway through. i almost stopped reading it but someone threatened me lol

I always need more material to read on the train into labs so I might try The Host next week.

i'm not kidding by the way. the first 100 pages are boring and make no sense. but stick with it.

Grrr I hate books that start out dull!

me too!!!!! but the end is worth it. i mean i still like twilight better... but as books go it's pretty good. worth a read anyways.

OK, well I'll try and stick with it. Lucky for me the commute and the 50min coffee wait in the mornings are so dull that anything will do.

haha it took me a good two months to read. i only finished it because i took it on the bus with me the last time i went to washington dc for the abortion protest andddddd well.... it's a 16 hour bus ride haha.

Ahh fair enough. I should have it done in about a week then.

lol i'm sure! it's just hard to read the beginning fast because you're like... wtf and have to read it again. lol

You're not making me wanna read this, I have to say.

it's good though! not my favorite book ever, but worth a read!

Haha ok I trust you.

I'm agree with Mary, it's a bit boring in the begining but the story is getting more excitingat halfway, but worth to read it. And I read it my way to and back from school a year ago.

This week, my bag has been too full of stuff like umbrellas and hoodies, so can't fit The Host in without bending the pages, and I hate doing that to brand new shiny intact books.

I am still reading The Host it's been a half a year or more

I don't know, but it goes sooooo slow. Maybe cause it's on comp but then again I've read Hush Hush fast. When I sit by it, I happen to read maybe just 2 chapters. For me it's seems boring cause everything happens in one place and no action, more it's just the relationships between each other.
