And girl created boy…

In the beginning, there was an apple—

And then there was a car crash, a horrible injury, and a hospital. But before Evening Spiker’s head clears a strange boy named Solo is rushing her to her mother’s research facility. There, under the best care available, Eve is left alone to heal.

Just when Eve thinks she will die—not from her injuries, but from boredom—her mother gives her a special project: Create the perfect boy.

Using an amazingly detailed simulation, Eve starts building a boy from the ground up. Eve is creating Adam. And he will be just perfect... won’t he?

  1. I loooved your review of this. And not just because you touched on all MY feelings, but because you stated them so well. And man, I wish I could make gifs out of some of the faces you did for the parts that aggravated you. *rofl* You need to do more of these, bro.

  2. That's funny because when I was editing it, there were a couple of times I thought, Oh man, that's a gif right there... ;P

  3. About the priorities... I've felt exactly the same thing with The Body Finder by K. Derting. I mean, there was obviously a killer out there and people were killed all around, yet the main character seemed more interested in her feelings about her best friend/secret love. I could not stand reading the book after 60 pages. It was devastating.
