“Have you ever thought of transforming yourself into one of your parents?” Will asked. “Your mother, or father? It would give you access to their memories, wouldn’t it?”
She turned to look at him. “I have thought of it. Of course I have. But I have nothing of my father’s or mother’s. Everything that was packed in my trunks for the voyage here was discarded by the Dark Sisters.”

Saoirse Ronan to Star in The Host
According the sources, Saoirse Ronan (from Lovely Bones) is set to play the lead (Wanderer?) in The Host. Am I the only one who didn't know they were making The Host into a movie? I'm actually pretty excited about seeing this book on the big screen. Now who's going to play Jared?
