The Host




We had the opportunity to go to a pre-screening of The Host tonight.  I've been looking forward to, yet dreading, this on-screen adaptation of Stephenie Meyer's novel.  There have been way to many book-to-movie projects that have fallen flat in my opinion.  I really enjoyed this book, and it was not certain in my mind that they could do a decent job with it since a lot of the dialogue between the "soul" and the "host" takes place in the mind of the host.  If that was confusing, read the book.  It's a great read once you get through the first 100 pages or so.  The movie releases at the end of March.  It was well-done and visually pleasing.
