Did anyone else read parts where there was some foreshadowing of what was to come?

It didn't really hit me about the significance of Wanderer being so famous because she had lived so many lives until the end when she starts to realize that they reason she was wandering so much was because she hadn't really found a place she wanted to stay permanently until she came to Earth.

I also thought the family was foreshadowing of the conflict that the souls are going to experience as the realize what love they have for their human children.

I think that Fords Deep Waters telling Wanderer about the soul, Kevin, who blacked out and was being taken over by the mind of his host was also a foreshadowing of things to come for both Wanda and the Seeker. Great topic, lollylew!! I'm going to be looking for a lot more foreshadowing as I re-Host. :-)

Ok, I'm borrowing this from someone, but it's a good idea. I think the soul parents with the human child could be foreshadowing of more souls/humans learning to co-exist.

I forsee more soul-human cooperation..... even in Nate's group there was a soul 'gone native.'

A great ending to a great book with hope for the future.

Isn't this the scene that Stephenie said was the set-up for a possible sequel? It was in her Borders interview. That's some serious fore-shadowing!

I missed that Borders interview, I didn't know it came from Steph herself. Interesting...
