The book from which the movie was adopted from:
The Host by Stephenie Meyer
Book 1 of The Host series
Genre: dystopian science fiction/fantasy
About The Host:
Melanie Stryder refuses to fade away. Our world has been invaded by an unseen enemy. Humans become hosts for these invaders, their minds taken over while their bodies remain intact and continue their lives apparently unchanged. Most of humanity has succumbed.Source: Info in the About The Host was taken from http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1656001.The_Host.
When Melanie, one of the few remaining "wild" humans, is captured, she is certain it is her end. Wanderer, the invading "soul" who has been given Melanie's body, was warned about the challenges of living inside a human: the overwhelming emotions, the glut of senses, the too-vivid memories. But there was one difficulty Wanderer didn't expect: the former tenant of her body refusing to relinquish possession of her mind.
Wanderer probes Melanie's thoughts, hoping to discover the whereabouts of the remaining human resistance. Instead, Melanie fills Wanderer's mind with visions of the man Melanie loves - Jared, a human who still lives in hiding. Unable to separate herself from her body's desires, Wanderer begins to yearn for a man she has been tasked with exposing. When outside forces make Wanderer and Melanie unwilling allies, they set off on a dangerous and uncertain search for the man they both love.
My review of The Host is HERE.
I do look forward to these as well. However, some how I missed the GIJoe movie coming. I liked the first and just re-watched it the other weekend. I've not read Host, but would like to check out the movie. :) Great picks to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteAll good stuff. But the one I can't wait for? The Host. I LOOOOVE the book.
