Melanie Stryder is captured by the Souls and has a Soul implanted in her body. Much to her Soul's surprise, Melanie refuses to fade away and be lost forever in her own body. The Soul, known as the Wanderer, is drawn to hunt down Melanie's past and rejoin the life that Melanie lost when she was captured. Can the Wanderer and Melanie get past the Seeker assigned to keep track of her? Can they convince the humans that the Wanderer means them no harm?

An intense, read over and over again, brilliant read.

I loved how Stephenie Meyer's simple language allows you to be pulled into the story without being distracted by the language. It allows you to paint your own vivid pictures in your mind and lets you get fully immersed in the world of Hosts and Souls.

There is nothing about this book I didn't like. Maybe that it came to an end!

Read it again, as with almost any book written by Stephenie Meyer.

Immersed for all 619 pages!

is amazing. She uses simple language that allows any level of reader to be able to get into the story. All of the pages are full of action and interest. There is never any reading to get to the next part or get to the end!

It is so different from her Twilight Saga!

There is no reason to not read this book!
