GINNY'S (THE PUG'S) REVIEW:
Eve and Adam is a new real world adventure book I was drawn to in my local waterstones, sadly although I loved the concept Micheal Grant and Katherine Applegate was presenting to the reader, the story fell flat on the page despite the action that was present.
Eve and Adam is a story based on a character named Evening who lives a somewhat normal teenage life when she is hit by a car crossing the road while trying to reply to a txt on her mobile phone.
While she in her private hospital/ lab ran by her mother who is a famous scientist she discovers some shocking truth while creating something completely new and slightly Frankensteinish.
This story had a great concept but unfortunately for me the story and the characters just didn't come fully alive for me.
You will either love this book or hate but I definitely recommend trying it.
This book is full of action and a modern setting to a rather old age tale, despite the 2Dness I found while reading, this novel doesn't stop to breath in it whirlwind story of love and hate.
I hope you have enjoy my latest review, see you soon.
Ginny
