nursenblack Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I've finally started reading The Host after it has sat on my bookself since it came out. I'm only a few chapters in and can't get in to it at all! I find it very confusing also. I think I'm going to abandon it. I've read a lot of good reviews, so it is just me?

I got bored quite a lot, and felt it was too long and drawn out. I did finish it, but wouldn't feel inclined to recommend it to anyone else. It's still on my shelf for some reason, but it will be off the the charity shop on my next trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacefield Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Well, I'm very glad that I only paid $2.00 for a used copy of this last weekend, and didn't buy it new! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mummymunt Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 It has been about 18 months to 2 years since I read it, but I do remember I quite enjoyed it. Like somebody else said, this was a lot less predictable than the Twilight series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
