For Stephenie Meyer fans--life after Twilight

My favorite genre is science fiction, so I loved The Host by Stephenie Meyer. However, her website promotes it as "science fiction for people who don't like science fiction." The earth has been invaded by alien souls that take over human hosts, but the main character, Melanie, fights for control of her mind and convinces the alien, Wanderer, to take her to find her boyfriend and brother. For those of you who loved the Twilight saga, I am sorry to report that The Host does not have vampires, but it does have a great love triangle that keeps you hanging til the very end (leaving things wide open for another series!) Although this is not a Young Adult title, I think many of you will love the book as much as I did. Click here to read an excerpt from the Host or view a trailer. To learn more about Stephenie Meyer and plans for the upcoming New Moon movie, visit her official website or her MySpace (from home!).
