The Host

Romantic science fiction with fascinating plot and compelling storyline. 
The story was told through a female alien, the wanderer, whose soul was inserted into the body of a human girl, Melanie. 
Upon the insertion, Melanie’s mind was so intensely resistant that she didn’t easily give up her own body. As a result, the wanderer found herself fighting with Mel’s interrupting thoughts and old memories every once in a while.
The novel makes me wonder what it feels like to share my body with another girl and each of us was in love with a different man. That must’ve been pretty torturing and awkward.  
The book was another masterpiece of Stephenie Meyer after the popular teen romantic fiction Twilight Series. So far as I know it will soon be a movie. Some changes might be made as necessary to fit the story into another different media. Hopefully, it won’t much differ from what we have read and imagined from the book.
