Fantasy-style works of art in which, against the invasion of aliens or another frightening situation, are the constant struggle between good and evil, are popular with readers. In the book by Stephanie Meyer "The Guest", in addition to the main topic, there is also a secondary one: the possibility of love and friendship between two opponents: an alien and a man.
The plot and development of the plot
The inhabitants of one of the distant planets, the true essence of which is a small fragile lump with a thousand nerve endings, called the soul, conquered the Earth with the help of cunning. People for them are only carriers in whose body they can exist. There are almost no representatives of mankind with an unclear mind - units gather in groups and hide in the mountains, occasionally making sorties into cities for food.
Melanie falls into captives to the aliens, and they, trying to find out information about the whereabouts of the remaining partisans, settle the Wanderer to her - a soul who has visited many planets. Having woken up in a new body, she tries to live, like the rest of her race, but the glimpses of Melanie's memory, just as she herself, who has not completely disappeared, force the Wanderer to drop everything and make a desperate journey to the mountains, to the place where her beloved men can be and the girl’s younger brother.
Another reason that prompted the Wanderer to leave civilized places is the seeker who persistently pursues her, posing a threat to Jamie, a little boy from Melanie's memory.
