“If I was given the choice between having the world back and having you, I wouldn't be able to give you up. Not to save five billion lives.”

-Jared to Melanie


Title:  The Host

Author:  
Hardcover, 620 pages
Published May 6th 2008 by Little Brown and Company

Melanie Stryder refuses to fade away. The earth has been invaded by a species that take over the minds of human hosts while leaving their bodies intact. Wanderer, the invading "soul" who has been given Melanie's body, didn't expect to find its former tenant refusing to relinquish possession of her mind.

As Melanie fills Wanderer's thoughts with visions of Jared, a human who still lives in hiding, Wanderer begins to yearn for a man she's never met. Reluctant allies, Wanderer and Melanie set off to search for the man they both love.

Featuring one of the most unusual love triangles in literature, THE HOST is a riveting and unforgettable novel about the persistence of love and the essence of what it means to be human.

My Thoughts
I chose a quote from this book last week, but from Ian to Wanda.  This week's quote is from Jared to Melanie.  This book shows one of the strangest love triangles I've ever come across.  Jared is so sweet.  I loved him from his and Melanie's first meeting.

Comments

  1. One of my favorite quote from the book :)

  2. The Host is an awesome book! I loved Ian and Wanda's relationship better than Jared's with Melanie, but I still thought he was great when it came to Melanie and her little brother. :)

Author Interview with Michael Cargill

Today we have author Michael Cargill on our blog! Not only did Michael do an interview for us, he was awesome enough to give us 10 copies of his newest book, just released last week, to give away!  See below for details.   Look at the person sitting just across from you. It doesn’t matter whether they’re a loved one, a friend, or a complete stranger. Now look at their face. Are they happy? Are they sad? Or are they angry? Can you even tell? How well do you actually know the people closest to you? Have you ever seen the real person that lies just underneath what you see…? <A HREF="http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&MarketPlace=US&ID=V20070822%2FUS%2Fmakingconne03-20%2F8003%2Fe1962181-4fde-4adc-abee-026d45bd31b9&Operation=NoScript">Amazon.com Widgets</A> Thanks Michael for the interview and the giveaway!  When did you first know you wanted to be a writer?
