The Host by Stephenie Meyer

Fans of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series can sink their teeth into something different while they await the next adventure of Bella, Edward and Jacob (place your hold now for Breaking Dawn).

Meyer's newest novel, the Host, is told from the view of the Wanderer, an alien soul whose race has taken over human bodies. Both Science Fiction and Romance, this story focuses on one alien whose human host won't fade away. Although Melanie's body is no longer her own, her consciousness won't leave the Wanderer in peace. As both struggle for control and understanding, Melanie tempts her with memories of the life and love she had with Jared, a survivor of the alien invasion. As they set out to find him, their lives intertwine binding them together. Can they continue to exist together?
