I realized last night why aliens kind of freak me out. Don’t get me wrong I love watching shows like Dr. Who and Star Trek. It is just when I start thinking about actual aliens out there in space I get freaked out. I don’t believe in gods or vampires (Though I love reading about vampires and werewolves. The number of books with the tag “paranormal” in my librarything catalog is almost embarrassing.) or other mysterious creatures, but I pretty much think their are aliens out there. And that is what freaks me out – the fact that to me their is a possibility of aliens.

Speaking of aliens, I am currently reading The Host by Stephenie Meyer. This novel takes place after aliens have taken over the planet and human bodies. It is about the alien, Wanderer, who has taken over the body of Melanie. Normally the human presence inside the body disappears, but Melanie is strong and she stays. They struggle with each other and Melanie’s memories. So far I am greatly enjoying the story.
