THE HOST
After I had read the book,
The Host by Stephanie Meyer, I was amazed at how a simple book had moved me. It was about a world of souls that take over the human race. Then there was this one soul, named Wander, nicknamed Wanda,, has a human host like no other. In fact this human host can actually talk to her after falling off an elevator shaft, to save her family from insertion. Then she goes on an adventure to find her family, and when she does she is treated like a prisoner, the exact opposite that Wanda and Mel thought. But after a couple of days she gets more and more comfortable in the space Jeb, the owner of the house,Ian who has a crush on Wanda , and Jared, who was until, recently, Mel's boyfriend, and Jaime, who was Mel's brother. After two deaths, she realizes she cannot stay here- well, not in this body because there is no space for both of them, Mel and Wanda. And so, like all the other times before, she is going to another planet where there aren't any resistance.Wanda thought that was the end of her ninth life, but they bring her back in the end, and Melanie is back in her body.
This book had changed me for a reader. The moral of this story was to never take life for granted even if your life was taken by someone else.This was a suspenseful book, it had such a climax in each of the chapter, my favorite climax was when Wanda decided to give herself up for the seeker's life, a seeker is basically a soul's guardian, they take care of the soul. The saddest part was when Walter died and they had to give him an overdose of morphine and the funeral. I almost cried at that part, and again at the part when Wes was killed by Wanda's seeker. And at the very last part when Wanda decided to give herself up. I almost thought that was the end of the book, but they brought her back to life.And happily ever after.
