The Host stars Saoirse Ronan as Melanie Stryder, a young woman who becomes captured and infected by a parasitic alien called "Wanderer." As the two beings struggle for control within a single human body (and come to love two different men), the story tackles many of the same themes that Meyer explored in Twilight: Love, morality, and what it means to be human. Today's new film adaptation of The Host, Meyer's final remaining novel (and her only book set outside the Twilight universe), is likely to prove just as polarizing as her breakout. But when the Twilight Saga came to an end in November 2012 with the release of the series' last film, Breaking Dawn: Part 2, Meyer's fans and haters each put down their arms. Over the course of the last decade, Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series has inspired a passion in its most devoted fans that is only rivaled by the passion of its detractors.
