Melanie Stryder refuses to fade away. The earth has been invaded by a species that take over the minds of their human hosts while leaving their bodies intact, and most of humanity has succumbed. Wanderer, the invading "soul" who has been given Melanie's body, knew about the challenges of living inside a human: the overwhelming emotions, the too vivid memories. But there was one difficulty Wanderer didn't expect: the former tenant of her body refusing to relinquish possession of her mind. Melanie fills Wanderer's thoughts with visions of the man Melanie loves -- Jared, a human who still lives in hiding. Unable to separate herself from her body's desires, Wanderer yearns for a man she's never met. As outside forces make Wanderer and Melanie unwilling allies, they set off to search for the man they both love. Featuring what may be the first love triangle involving only two bodies, The Host is a riveting and unforgettable novel that will bring a vast new readership to one of the most compelling writers of our time.Binding Type: Hardcover

Lightweight Linen Shorts That Nail Summer Comfort and Value
Color: Light Khaki, Size: Medium, Color: Light Khaki, Size: Medium
These cotton-linen blend shorts are exactly what you want when the temperature climbs. The material is breathable and airy, with that slightly textured linen look that fits perfectly in a casual summer setting. They’re clearly designed for comfort first, and they deliver on that without feeling flimsy.
The standout feature here is how lightweight they are. These don’t trap heat, and they stay comfortable even during extended wear in warm conditions. The fabric allows airflow while still providing enough structure to avoid looking sloppy.
Fit is easygoing and practical. The elastic waistband combined with the drawstring gives flexibility to dial in the fit, and it stays secure without digging in. The 7-inch inseam hits a nice middle ground—not too short, not overly long—making these versatile for casual outings, lounging, or even quick errands.
Construction is straightforward but solid for the price point. Stitching is consistent, and the shorts hold their shape well after wear. There’s a relaxed drape to the fabric that works with the style rather than against it. Pockets are functional and positioned where you’d expect, adding to everyday usability.
Color is a soft light khaki that pairs easily with just about anything. It has that neutral, slightly warm tone that works well with summer shirts, polos, or even just a basic tee.
Care is simple. These do fine in a standard wash, though air drying helps preserve the fabric and maintain the intended fit and texture over time, supporting overall durability for a lightweight garment like this.
At this price, the value for money is excellent. You’re getting a comfortable, breathable pair of shorts that fit the season perfectly without overpaying.
Overall, these are a solid go-to option for warm weather—lightweight, breathable, easy to wear, and well worth having in the rotation.
