The Host is a totally science fiction world where aliens have taken over the human race by planting little souls in all the humans host bodies. The main character is an alien soul in a human body, but the human's mind is still active and Wanderer, the soul, can still hear all her thoughts. Wanderer goes in search for other "wild humans" that have not yet had souls planted in them. She finds her host bodies family, including the love of her life. None of the humas believe that there is still the human living and thinking inside the body that they share. Most of this story is Wanderer convincing thee humans to let her stay in their secret underground hideout. She feels that she no longer belongs in the alien world anymore. the human emotions she has adapted from her humans mind and memory is more then and other soul has experienced, so no other soul understands her like the humans do. Wanderer convinces the humans that she is truely not there to hurt of uncover their hidiing spot, and in time falls in love with two men. She has to decide which one of the men are her true love and many challenges test her love for both of them. There are always the people in the secret community of wild humans who don't believe she is safe to have around. The challenges Wanderer faces are unlike anything i have ever imagines and this book keeps you on the edge of your seat. This book retaught me how strong the will to survive is in the human spirit. We are fighters down to our cores. When the going gets tough, humans adapt to be tougher. this book is the actual physical survival of dangers conditions, like deserts with no water, homicidal people out for you, and much more unimaginable deadly circumstances. not only does Wanderer fight to stay physically alive, the the human fight to stay mentally alive and aware. I have learned that if all you can do is survive, then that is enough. As long as you are living and breathing, you have everything.
