2019 It’s been a couple of years since I read this last. I still really enjoyed it. Wanda’s narrative bugged me a little bit this time. I had a hard time swallowing her timidness. I really just wanted Mel to take over. Having said that, I was again touched or faced with pondering what it means to be human and how amazing it is to have a body. Meyer does such a fantastic job of making the reader contemplate humanity and what it means to really be human. I also thought about how much store I put i

This book is so good!!! I absolutely loved it so much! I think it is definitely one of the three, if not the best book I have ever read. It got so exciting toward the end that I stayed up till 2:30A finishing it. I don't think I have been so engrossed in a book since the last Harry Potter book or the last Dark Tower book. Stephenie Meyer has outdone herself with her first adult novel. I was so sympathetic with the aliens because they are so nice and gentle. And they feel so justified in assimila

i'm guessing i like this book so much because i 'read' it on audiobook. it is very very full of details and it's a bit slow on the up-take, but it's an awesome story! i'm an ian and wanda fan, because ian reminds me of my fiance :) it had a happy ending, which i was worried about. it was a great listen and i'm hoping Stephanie Meyer gets on the ball and writes some more awesome books!

I read this on recommendation- hadn't thought it looked that great, but figured I'd give it a shot considering I'm in love with Stephenie Meyer's other books.
It started off pretty slow, but ended up quite a page-turner. I had a hard time wrapping my mind around the dual-consciouses, but I suppose that's part of the story.
All-in-all, not quite up to Bella's story, but definitely a fun read, even thought-provoking on more than one occasion. ...more

What can I say? I really love Meyers writing style. I sat down at work and read a solid almost 8 hours (it was a slow night) and then read another 3 hours today to finish. I'll admit I was speed reading, but I just couldn't wait to see how the dilemma this story presents worked itself out. I simply couldn't put it down.
