Just read The Host
So I just finished reading The Host by Stephanie Meyer. I hadn't planned on mentioning it here, but it turned out to be post-apocalyptic in the sense that it takes place years after a planet-wide invasion where all but a handful of the population have been turned into mindless "hosts" for centipede-like aliens.
I was a big fan of Ms Meyer's previous books, the Twilight Saga, so I was really looking forward to reading this one. Overall, I enjoyed it, but it wasn't anywhere near up to the Twilight standard. I'd recommend it, but only if, like me, you don't go into it expecting a hard sci-fi alien invasion story. It really is much more of a relationship book, rather than an action one.
Good, but not great, would sum it up, I guess.
