Put the book down
At night before I fall a sleep, I read some. I am a picky reader, because I don’t like books who use G-d’s name in it in a ugly light. I don’t mind a few cuss words here and there I can handle that but not when it comes to taking G-d’s name in vane it one of my pep peeves. A couple weeks ago I got a new book from a Author, who I have read some of her young adult stuff. I started reading young adult because for the most I don’t have to skip over a bunch of cussing. I am also picky because if a author does not catch me with in the first chapter, I will probably not finish the book. I have plenty of books laying around unfinished because they didn’t catch me by the end of the first chapter, very seldomly will I read further. I will if I see promise in the book it might speed up and get better for reading..
I got “The Host” by Stephenie Meyer, it’s her newest book. I am looking forward to her next one coming out. “The Host” is about a alien race that’s pretty much has taken over earth and they live in human bodies controlling them. The main Alien is called Wanderer, but she not like the others, she has ended up caring for her human host and doesn’t want to bring her any pain. Eventually she ends up in a bad sistuation because her humans kind of hate her and don’t treat her well at all.
I have found it very hard to put this book down, I got to bed say, I am just going to read a chapter. Sometimes I read at 3 chapters then look at the clock and say Oh my it’s midnight I better go to bed. I I wake up early. So let me say thank you to Stephenie for writing so good that I don’t want to put it down.
Sometimes it’s easy to relate to her characters even if they are undesirable type of characters. Eventually things get better for Wander but then it seems like she might do something that wouldn’t end well for her. I am not sure how the book ends because I haven’t gotten there just yet.
Wander pretty much befriends the humans even after they treated her harshly and only 2 treated her with any amount of compassion.
I would recommend this book for even a younger reader if they can read at about a 5th grade reading level it may be higher then 5th grade for reading, but I know by the time I was in fifth grade I could read all the words in the book. I am surprised my lighting hasn’t burned out with how much I been using it. I do not recall reading any cuss words in this book, to be honest I don’t think I have ever read anything like that from this Author. I do know I enjoy her books a lot and normally I don’t enjoy many Authors. I just find I read through the authors I like very quickly and then I am lift with wanting more for a couple of years. Good thing I just found her a couple months ago because she got enough to keep me busy until the next one comes out soon.
