What parts remind you of Twilight? It's been a while since I read it but read it back to back with Twilight and I didn't catch it.
Yea it is way better but when she is talking about jared it is like it is Bella talking about edward
The writing is better too, you can tell she took her time with it and there doesn't feel as though there are any "holes" missing.
Give her time... it takes a while to rite a good, bestseller!!
According to one source, Stephenie said she was "almost done" writing the sequel to The Host in June of 2008. (http://www.twilightlexicon.com/?p=645)
Another source, MTV.com reports the following as of April 2008 (http://www.mtv.com/movies/news/articles/...)
MTV: Do you plan on writing "Host" sequels?
Meyer: I hope. If I were to continue on with "The Host," which is a possibility, there are characters and stories that could continue. ... If I went ahead with that, it would be two more. ... Next would be "The Soul," and then "The Seeker."
So I guess it remains to be seen if this book will be called "The Seeker" or "The Soul..."
According to Stephenie Meyer's website she doesn't have any release dates or further news on the book progress. But after what happened with Midnight Sun, could you blame her for keeping it a secret? I'm sure when she's finished with the book and a date is set, she will let us know. I will keep you updated.

ok, yeah the book was amazing, but if there was a sequel, what would happen? just more of what already did. more rescuing and trying not to get caught. it would be so boring and repetitive. i think the host should stay single, standing tall on its own
Not necessarily, remember, the group was warming up to her and at the end she found another like herself. This could all lead to a revolt in the last book. Just one possibiity.

"I don't think she's throwing the towl but I think she's going to do different things before doing Midnight Sun again. I think she said she will start the book when people stop harrassing her about it and forget about it. I would do the same thing personally. I feel so sorry for her, she's getting so much attention for these books. I'm glad people like them and all, she's a good writer but I mean there is some line where you can't handle that much attention.

You have given me hope. Thanks.
I just finished The Host last night. I loved it and I couldn't stop reading it. Stephenie meyer is an awesome writer. I was very happy with how The Host ended but i would be interested in reading the sequels if she wrote them.
Stephenie said on Oprah Thursday that The Host was her favorite and that would probably be her next book. yeah1!!!!
Stephenie Meyer said that she would like The Host to a 3book series. Also, when the paperback comes out for the Host there will be an extra chapter.I CAN'T WAIT!!!
Oh ... I saw some information about the sequels of the host on Wikipedia . But I think it's unnecessary . The ending of The Host is perfect and if she tries to write another sequel , it won't be good anymore . The ending let us guess about the future of the humen , think about the true love at the end of the world . If she plans to write another sequel , it should be a different story but the same sittuation < about another souls , hosts and seekers> .
In March 2008, Meyer said she was "almost done" writing a possible sequel to The Host, entitled The Soul.[75:] If she were to continue the series, the third book would be called The Seekerhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepheni...
I think it would b good if she wrote a sequel to the host cause all her books have been great so far so most Likly it wouldn't disappoint!
I really enjoyed this book (need to dig it out of storage to read again) and would love to see it continue. Stephenie Meyers is, in my opinion, a very talented and creative writer. I think she could pull it off without a hitch.
I really need to read the next book or i will be reading the host till i know it all by heart and my sister will NEVER get to borrow it.
she would like to do a sequel and she knows exactly what happens next..watch this was at the Eclipse premiere in June

I can't wait for the sequel to the host to come out. I loved the host and I want the story to continue.
any updates on wether she has said anything about these sequels? I feel like shes taking forever lol
I have been freakin' waiting for this book about two years or so! Ever since I read the host... I heard the first sequel would be out in 2010, but nope... didn't happen :(
