History Literature / EveAndAdam

''Eve and Adam'' is a collaboration between CreatorCouple [[Creator/KAApplegate Katherine Applegate]] and Creator/MichaelGrant, co-authors of ''Literature/{{Animorphs}}'', ''Literature/{{Everworld}}'', and ''Literature/{{Remnants}}''. It focuses on Evening Spiker, who gets in a car crash that threatens to kill her... except that [[OnlyAFleshWound she's mysteriously fine]] [[GoodThingYouCanHeal after a few days]]. Terra, her mother and [[MadScientist the owner of the hospital where Eve is staying]], wants to keep her in the hospital for longer, and so [[ForTheLulz to keep Eve from being bored]], her mother gives her a project: to genetically engineer the perfect boy, Adam. The book is told in a dual perspective between Eve and Solo Plissken, who worked for Eve's mom at the hospital ever since his parents were killed in a car crash. He knows that there's more to the project than keeping Eve busy, and with her help, he uncovers some horrifying secrets of the hospital...

* AccidentalPervert: Played with. At one point, Eve has to change her shirt in Solo's presence. So she turns her back to him... only to realize too late that she was standing in front of a mirror. Although Aislin assures us that Solo didn't look, it sure would've fit his personality to take notice.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: It comes up surprisingly rarely, but there is one place where it's a problem: [[spoiler: it's mentioned that Eve was genetically engineered as a young child. This would've meant that every one of her ''billions'' of cells would've had to been altered, and there would've been no way to do it quickly enough so that she wouldn't know.]]

%% * GettingCrapPastThe Radar: Due to overwhelming and persistent misuse, GCPTR is on-page examples only until 01 June 2021. If you are reading this in the future, please check the trope page to make sure your example fits the current definition.

* AwesomeMcCoolname: Solo Plissken.
* BadassBookworm[=/=]GeniusBruiser: Solo.

* MohsScaleOfScienceFictionHardness: The series falls at a 2, MOHS/WorldOfPhlebotinum. Everything is dealt with consistently, but the science is made up and there's no attempt to explain it.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: A guy described so hot that [[EvenTheGuysWantHim everyone]] wants to do it with him? Check. BelligerentSexualTension between Solo and Eve, emphasis on 'sexual'? Check. All this in a book published by Scholastic? Double check.

* FlippingTheBird: At one point, [[spoiler: Solo is tied up by [=SpikerFarm=] workers who try to make him give them the password to his computer. He gives them a long, thirty-two character password... [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome that deletes the contents of the computer and displays a middle finger]].]]

** Eve at one point talks about a report she made in which she opened by saying, "Boys have nipples. Why is this?" She then proceeds to show a picture of [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments a shirtless man]] that was 'sure to hold the attention of the nine straight girls and one gay boy in the room.'
