The Host is 1 year old and what a crazy year it has been! It debuted at #1 and hasn’t left the list since. Current placing on the New York Times #6, Publisher’s Weekly #6, and USA Today #21. It doesn’t feel like it has been a year since The Host took over the Lexicon and we were introduced to some truly amazing new characters. Wanderer: the invader who you can’t help but like for her peaceful ideals, Melanie: the soul who refuses to give up and can often be violent, Jared: torn between the love he thought he lost and the body that remains, and of course, Ian: the one person who sees Wanderer for who she really is.
Check back later in the week as we bring you a Host Contest with a very cool prize. Hint: It’s really about the love!

I love The Host it is my favorite Stephenie Meyer book! I couldn’t go to the signing when she was here because of finals last year but my friend got my book signed. It’s an enthralling book and I hope to read more
Yay for the Host! I loved it so much
Most definitely my favorite Stephenie Meyer book. In fact, I’m gonna go start reading it again right now!
Happy birthday to the Host!
I love it as much as Twilight
Happy Birthday Host!!!
I LOVE this book!
Its so compelling and has such great depth to it.
Did anyone cry while reading this book?
I know I did, a lot.
Because its its Birthday I’m going to start re-reading it(on top of the other five books I’m reading).
Oh Yes!! i did cry a few times…love it!!
i cried too
i felt so bad for wanda <3
I loved The Host! I cried many more times while reading it than I did with the entire Twilight Saga. (And I love Twilight!) I am hooked! I adored Ian from the start, way more than Jared. Way to go Steph, it is a great book!
I have read The Host so many times! I like it as much as I like Twilight. Stephenie is an amazing writer. I hope she publishes something new very soon.
I love Ian! he is adorable!
Yay!! got to read it again!!!
I absolutely love The Host!!!! Actually I think I like it more than Twilight and that’s only because it is a deeper story line and it’s longer. I love long books.
I just started reading again last week but I had no idea it was it’s birthday!!!
Happy Birthday Host!!!!
I love it more than Twilight too
Happy Birthday, The Host!
OMG! Happy Birthday The Host! Its one of the best books ever! My Mom just finished reading it yesterday! How ironic!
I can’t believe the host is one! I hope stephenie meyer writes a second host, i would love to read it.
Happy birthday Host! I think I like it better than Twilight! I love how I have the same last name as my favorite character (Ian)…plus my cousin in Kyle O’Shea. Ironic huh?
i love the host, but i cant say i like it better than TWILIGHT!@!!
i love them equally
(i worded what i was trying to say wrong, my bad…)
I absolutely love that book. So much emotion and such a great leap for Stephenie to make. Of course, I after Twilight, I never doubted Stephenie would be a brilliant author.
Happy Birthday The Host! I haven’t read it yet,but I’m planning to.
Happy b-day, Hostie! I can’t wait for the rest of the trilogy!
Has anyone heard any word on a sequel? If so, I was hoping we would have heard something by now!
I LOVED this book.
Seriously, LOVED it. I have read it over and over again. <3
Chapter 14, is when I cried like my Mother died.
*part where Jared does something mean to Wanda*
D:
Yay Happy B-day! ^^ I really loved this book. I even think I’ve re-read it more than Twilight.
HAppy Birthday!! Luv the book.
You do mean “Melanie, the HUMAN who refuses to give up,” right???
OMG! I didn’t even realize that!! I’m so happy for it now!! I swear, I wish I had more time to re-read books…after I finish writing mine and get it published, this summer equals reading, reading, buying more books, reading reading reading, buying buying buying, ect…ah! 2 or 3 full months of reading!! -happy!-
love this book
i got it the first day it came out and met stephenie at a book signing 4 days later
I loved The Host. Hope she is working feverishly on The Host 2.
