The Phantom
This is absolutely one of my favorite books! Even compared to twilight. I love how much depth this book has, how level-headed she needs to be during danger. and how smart Uncle Jeb really is. Each time I reread, there's more I learn! I love how pure the "Hosts" are. I love that there is a limited amount of cussing in it. I kind of wish there is a second book, but I know it would have to change the plot drastically if that happened. War would have to happen, and in my mind, I would love for Wonderer after she had lost her mate, she would become a mother, so her offspring could help show the host what humans are really like, probably form a new host culture. Beautiful book. There is none like it I have found.. Yet..!

I first read this book years ago during the Twilight craze. I think that this book is a new level of writing for the author and it has quickly become one of my favorite books of all time. The movie wasn't bad but it left great big holes in the story and made the Souls way more combatant than they should have been. I guess anything goes when you are trying to spice up a story that mostly takes place inside somebody's head. Now all I have to worry about is someone ruining the sequel.

I absolutely love this book. Do not be wary because your first thought when you see "Stephenie Meyer" is Kristen Stewart, or the Twilight movies. This book is a passionate story that makes you reconsider what it really means to be human and to have control over who you are and what you do. Beautifully written with strong characters and (as always with a classic, amazing Stephenie Meyer book), not one, but TWO poetic love stories. Definitely worth a read. Beautiful and tragic, with shocking twists and a great ending. Need a sequel!!!!
