This will be a short post but I just wanted to direct you to Stephenie’s site where she answers some really fun questions about her books and movies.  My favorite is how she came up with her names for Twilight.  Check it out.

Q& A Link for Stephenie Meyer

That’s right.  My husband forwarded over an article today from /film stating that Stephenie Meyer’s novel The Host will be made into a movie.  I can’t believe this is happening for Stephenie.  Five books made into movies.  She’s never going to have to write again unless she wants to.  This is absolutely incredible.

The Host follows Wanderer, a Soul (what the aliens call themselves) and her host body Melanie.  It’s been so long since I read the books that I don’t remember details but I remember Melanie fights to keep herself alive against Wanderers influence to take over her body.  I remember the humans are fighting against the alien invasion and it sure seems to be a losing battle.  I remember loving this book in the end and I still think about it sometimes with fondness.  Here’s my original review of the book but it really isn’t that helpful.  Sorry.

Check out /films article for more information on the director and a better synopsis of the book.  I cannot wait for this movie.  Are you guys excited too?
