The Host


I just finished reading The Host, by Stephenie Meyer. Wow. Few writers can keep a readers attention for 600+ pages. Yes, it's that long. But if you're looking for a great psychological sci-fi/romance with a unique twist, this is the book for you. It's light on the sci-fi for those of you who aren't fans. Without giving away the story, I would describe it as Star Trek meeting The Stepford Wives in a dystopian future. That might sound weird, but amazingly, it works. Really well.

And what about that amazing cover art? Whoever came up with the idea deserves a raise.
