the host

I read part of The Host by Stephenie Meyer.
I really liked it, but found that I could put it down.

I know what your thinking: "How could he put down a book and just out of the blue decide that he wasn't going to finish it!?"

I know...that's how I felt too. I had just gotten the Harry Potter Book Seven and and was dying to read it again.

You might be thinking: "Well he can finish it fast or read HP7 first and them get back to it."

No.

You see, when something great is about to happen (books included) I want to get the, say whatever I don't totally fancy, out of the way befor I do the fun thing. I save the best for last, in other words

It's some weird stress thing....

So on the way to Colorado I had my mom tell me what happened. Great great ending!

Now you must be thinking: Aghh! That's disgusting! How could he just skip to the end?! That Burns me! How can he call himself a reader?!"

Well you see, I really liked it at the beginning, then I got kind of bored, well not bored, just in a hurry to finish so I could read a great fantasy.

Now you might be thinking: "Oh, he must not like romances."

I must correct you.

I love romances. At age four when all the other kids were saying *ewwwwww* when people on T.V. kissed or something like that, I would call it quote, cute. One of my favorite movies is Pride And Prejudice.

I don't know what it was.

Maybe not sheer enjoyment.

I really liked that in the book there were lots of memories from Melanie. I always found those a joy to read. I also liked that they were in a different font. It was a fun book I can not deni that.

Oh well....

One thing I didn't like about it was sometimes the way Stephenie Meyer wrote.

It almost reminded me of a play script. Sometimes it would be like this:

Ian looked sad.

Long pause.

See? Long Pause. I personally think that it is better for a writer to say: And then there was a long, painful pause. Or something like that.

I don't know.

But it was good.
