Just interested in anyone's opinion on Ms Meyer's new book?. It's taken me a while to get in to it, but think I have found the rhythm now!

I read it and found it 'OK'. It reminded me of old science fiction - think War of The Worlds or I Am Legend. (NT) -- TanyaB, 16:58:16 10/11/09 Sun
I loved it. It was a little hard to get into, but once I did, I couldn't put it down. My mother read it and felt the same way. Def. a step above the "Twilight" books in terms of maturity of the characters, too. (NT) -- Lady Stormwing, 09:04:17 10/12/09 Mon
I loved it too, really good book. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute. (NT) -- Gwen, 10:53:09 10/12/09 Mon
Me too (loved it) and thought it was MUCH better than the Twilight series. A bit of 'food for thought' in this one - I don't think I'd be too impressed if a parasite inhabited the body of any of my loved ones! I'm a bit a of fan of 'old' science fiction such as John Wyndham's novels so maybe that's why I enjoyed it so much. Seems to be enjoyed by teenage readers as well - my kids and their friends have all loved it. (NT) -- Rhiann, 06:46:23 10/13/09 Tue
I enjoyed this book, even got my DH to read it (he wouldn't touch Twilight). (NT) -- Janelle N, 03:42:43 10/18/09 Sun
I loved it too! Definitely my favourite Meyer, and I hope to read more from her in this world. (NT) -- Marg, 12:54:46 10/19/09 Mon
- Hi Marg - just finished it and loved it! Do you think there will be more in this series - to me it sort of finished neatly - could go either way?! (NT) -- SueP, 23:50:41 10/19/09 Mon
  - Ages ago I heard that there was going to be another one, but I haven't heard much more than that. There is going to be a movie of The Host though! I really want to see what Meyer comes out with next now to follow on from the hugely successful Twilight series! (NT) -- Marg, 03:06:39 10/20/09 Tue
I listened to The Host on audio and absolutely loved it. Much better than "Twilight" and I liked them as well. Hope there will be more . (NT) -- LindaB, 09:38:54 10/25/09 Sun
