The Host
By Stephenie Meyer


Okay, I'm just going to say it and get it over with: I was not a big Twilight fan. I know this offends almost everyone. But I can't help it. Twlight just wasn't my cup of tea.. I felt too old for it. I felt like it was something my sister would love, (and she does.) Clearly, it's not just a teeny-bopper fad like I thought it would be. People my age (and older...) love it too, despite the fact that it's themes are childish, immature, ...not my style.
ANYWAY.
That being said, the fact that I wasn't a "Twi-hard," does not reflect my general opinion of Stephenie Meyer. I think she's a great writer, and I loved The Host.
Obviously, I had my doubts. But I was proven wrong, and I couldn't put it down. Its a long one, but its a quick read. The Host is Stephenie Meyer for big people. The story is original and addicting. Now that Twlight is over, (kind of...), I hope Stephenie Meyer sticks to this format/genre/age group and continues writing, because I love her, and she is way more than just the Twlight series.

Next up - (This is embarassing) "A Shore Thing" by..Snooki. Yes, I'm actually reading it. Yes I should be ashamed to admit that. Yes, my Jersey Shore addiction is disgusting. I know all this, you don't have to tell me.

Also - I obviously did not take the picture I used for this post. Being that I'm writing this in the library at school and obviously don't have my camera, I got it off of Google Images. Please don't sue me if I infringed on your copyright.
