Description

Melanie Stryder refuses to fade away. The earth has been invaded by a species that takes over the minds of their human hosts while leaving their bodies intact, and most of humanity has succumbed. Wanderer, the invading 'soul' who has been given Melanie's body, knew about the challenges of living inside a human: the overwhelming emotions, the too-vivid memories. But there was one difficulty Wanderer didn't expect: the former tenant of her body refusing to relinquish possession of her mind. Melanie fills Wanderer's thoughts with visions of the man Melanie loves - Jared, a human who still lives in hiding. Unable to separate herself from her body's desires, Wanderer yearns for a man she's never met. As outside forces make Wanderer and Melanie unwilling allies, they set off to search for the man they both love.

I've never read the book but I really have wanted to for a long time now. I've been trying to buy a copy or get it at the library but my library doesn't have it and every time I'm at a book store I don't have the extra money.

I am happy to hear that it is good, just as I suspected, and I really want to read it.

let me know if there really is going to be a sequel and does anyone know when the movie is coming out?

OMG!! I absolutely loved this book!! I was never going to read it because everyone had been telling me that it was really bad but I had a friend who said it was amazing. So that changed my mind in reading it and trust me, I am soooo glad that I now own it as well!!

I also heard that there were going to be two more books to this book. They were called The Soul and The Seeker. Does anyone know if this is true or not?? Because if it is, please let me know :)

Thanks

Also this is a great book that everyone should read!!

It is my favorite book ever! I was thinking it would be boring. WRONG! I couldn't go to sleep until I some chapters flew by... and couldn't go to sleep, my eyes hurting clock showing 6 am....... It is genius! We find fiction, but striking reality as well. Describing the humans as they are, capable of a wide range of feelings, some violent, some soft and caring... one part I liked when Wanda explained that they don't need to pay for things as their "policy" is that they all work for the goods therefore they all share them equally. If only it would be like that in real life, if only we all could be fair; that would save our world from wars, discrimination, crime, theft, orphans and so on... maybe I'm too naif, or just a dreamer, like Stephenie. I loved it! If you read it, well done! If not, you don't know what you're missing! Get it! :)
