IAN
and Kyle, and Jamie, and Melanie, and Uncle Jeb.
But Ian most of all.
I mean, what's not to like about Ian? I like how he was able to look past the fact that Wanda is an alien. And he can look through her eyes, and know how she's feeling. He understands her and makes an effort to make sure she's taking care of herself and that she's somewhat accepted in their little community.
I can't say I ever really warmed up to Jared. I understand where he's coming from, though. Your lover is 'killed' and the killer shows up on your doorstep. And even though he was nice enough in the end (he did save Wanda from killing herself) he never really found a place in my heart. He's neutral area for me.
You learn to love Kyle (or atleast I did) by the end of the book, and I can't say I realy disliked him in the beginning anyways. If you stick yourself in his point of veiw, his actions are reasonable. Jamie is super cute, and he was always able to accept Wanda even when they all thought she had killed Melanie. Melanie is really funny. She brings some humor into the book and she's always there to pull Wanda through tough events. Uncle Jeb is just awesome. He's the crazy hillbilly uncle who turns out to be not so crazy afterall.
I can't really compare Twilight and the Host. They both tap into different emotions. It's like comparing apples and oranges. They both come from different places, Twilight is more about a forbiddon love, almost. It takes more from these strange emotions about an unexplained interest in someone else, who turns out to be much more than you barganned for. The Host can be almost frightening. It really makes you think more about humanity in general. It takes from emotions of fear, for me. These humans are living in tunnels in the dessert because there planet has been taken over and then one of the aliens shows up at your door. Not only are the humans afraid of the alien, but the alien is afraid of the humans. It plays alot on fear, Twilight doesn't really.
I love them both. They take from different sides of the spectrum, it's not fair to compare.
