The Host
by Stephenie Meyer
Parasitic aliens calling themselves "Souls" invaded Earth and taken over. Once a "Soul" is placed in a human host, the alien takes over and suppresses the human’s mind. But when Wanderer awakes in her new body, she finds that her human host isn’t so easily overcome. She soon find herself in a voyage to find the host’s younger brother, and the man that she loves who is in hiding.
The parasitic "Souls" are easy to dislike at first, but the alien race were described with such a rich and colorful backstory that is truly fascinating. And Wanderer is a unique "Soul" who soon finds herself caring for the same people as her host, and finding herself torn between ties to her own people and the humans.
This is such a deep & beautifully written science fiction tale. It made me think about the choices that are made and what I would do in their place. Intense, exciting, dramatic, and inspiring.
