"The Host"
Stephenie Meyer
Through pg 438
So far...
Wanda found two "tortured bodies" that the Doc has been trying to extract souls from human bodies to free the humans. Wanda freeked out and basicaly paralized mel and made her dissapear. It took Jared to make Wanda feel so overwelmed that it shocked wanda back into existance.
"I think Ian likes you to much."(361) This was when Ian first started to like Wanda and he acted very courteous and gentlemen like towards Wanda doing everything he could to make her feel for comfortable. Mel Loves Jared very much but cant even stand it when he touches her because Wanda is in control of the body and Melanie gets jealous. So when Ian seems to be getting close Wanda does not realize the feelings and that Ian is showing her as well as Mel does. She feels that it is wrong for Ian to pursue Wanda in Mel's body even though Wanda "is" in control of. Of course later on this causes a lot of drama and confusion.
"... I had never intentional caused anyone physical pain, but i had hurt Ian deeply enough just by hurting myself."(422) This helps develop Wanda's character a little more because at first in the book i saw that Wanda didn't really like inflicting pain or see it. But when she saw the two mangled bodies she flipped and did more than just freak out. Now we got a better understanding of how severely she hates the infliction of pain on another being. Although she is very against causing physical pain she also dislikes hurting someone mentally as well because she feels terrible and can barely live with hurting other in any way.

Now on Page 398.
So Far...
Since Jareds return with Kyle, Kyle has acted very hostile towards Wanda. Kyle desides to acttack her in the bathing/water room. Wanda to scared and unwilling to watch a human die jumps in to save kyle wen the tables turn and the floor breaks from under them. Kyle goes to a "hearing" were kyle is being tried for death. Even his own brother Ian was opposed to letting him stay or live. But Wanda still called it an accident.
A diary passage (Wanda)
Ian seems to be kinda of "clingy lately and Mell is sending me wierd thoughts about this saying Ian is getting "to close", but Wanda, in terms of how old I am compared to how old I can get puts me at a very "young" age almost a child age. I dont see affection as well as i probly should have. Ian tried to kiss me and i think he is trying to get me to fall for him despite my relationship with Jared. No matter what i want if Mels not happy neither am I. I guess i should have seem this comming especialy from a human. does he not see that i am an alien living inside a host? Luckily Jamie, Mel's little brother has been there to save me from most of the comotion going on in this hectic cave.

Q4 Blog Post 3
"The Host"
Stephenie Meyer
I have now read through 289. Since the last post Jared and Kyle have just come home from there long raid bringing back tons of food only to see that all the other humans have become friends with "the enemy". Jared is not only hurt by this but disgusted. he immediately comes to the assumption that the souls have now taken over his home, but he test there eyes and realizes that they are fine. All Wanda wants to do is end the inevitable witch she thinks is to end things quick and painlessly.
Journal entry (Wanda)
Its been so long living in this hole, not knowing who to trust and who wants to kill me. All i see every time i look around is angry faces no matter who looks at me. Jeb, Jamie and Ian seem to be my friends but Jeb seems a little careless, or just crazy to trust me so much. Maybe he's just a good judge of character. Jamie naturally trusts me because he is a kid and my host is his older sister. I tell him everything i know despite my better judgment. He is the only person in this hole that would give everything for me yet hes the only one who i do not want to do that. All i want is for him to be safe. Next is Ian. I'm not so sure if i can trust him or not because he is kyles brother and kyle wants me dead more than anything. He seems to be friendly and non hostile towards me but there is just something that doesn't seem right.
Melanie is my host body. for some reason her mind is as much present as mine and through out all this time together we have started to think as one. Our feelings for Jared are separate but exactly the same. We both individual love them. I'm trying to do whats best for Jamie but i just don't know what will scar him the least. Now Jared on the other hand we both love very much but he cant see that Melanie is still present. He see's "us" as just "it" an abomination, a freak of nature. All i want is for Jamie, Jared and I to become a family again.
Maybe im just getting "soft".
