The Host (The Host, #1)

by Stephenie Meyer

“No point in ignoring the truth. Doesn’t make it worse to have it said out loud.”

“Even if we all want you here, you don’t belong until you decide you do.”

“It’s not the face, but the expressions on it. It’s not the voice, but what you say. It’s not how you look in that body, but the things you do with it. You are beautiful.”

“It’s strange how life and love go on. I didn’t expect that.”
