History Literature / EveAndAdam

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse? : we never find out what happens to Maddox after being shot twice in the stomach. He's rushed to hospital, and doctors describe his condition as "hopeful", but aren't entirely sure if he'll live or not. This is never elaborated on, and we have no idea if he recovered or died.

''Eve and Adam'' is a collaboration between CreatorCouple [[KAApplegate Katherine Applegate]] and MichaelGrant, co-authors of ''Literature/{{Animorphs}}'', ''Literature/{{Everworld}}'', and ''Literature/{{Remnants}}''. The first novel, which takes the same name as the series, 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 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...

The book is told from the perspective of Eve, whose chapters are written by Applegate, and Solo ([[LateArrivalSpoiler as well as Adam, who appears halfway through the novel]]), whose chapters are written by Grant. Only one novel in the series has been released so far, ''Eve and Adam'', but there are plans for a sequel. It is notable for having an ''unbelievable'' amount of references to sex.

* LadySwearsALot: Eve, mostly in her narration. Solo swears a lot, too, though, so it's an aversion.

* CoversAlwaysLie: The apple featured on the American edition? It's seen exactly once, in the very first seen, and never mentioned again.

* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler: Eve and Solo.]]
* OnlyAFleshWound: Invoked; despite the fact that Eve is almost killed by the car that hits her, she's better in a few days. Justified one we find out that [[spoiler: Eve was genetically engineered to be able to heal well.]]
* OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent: Eve, at first. Also, Aislin.

-->'''Grant''': So, Jean Fiewell [editor of ''Literature/{{Animorphs}}'']] comes to us and says, "Hey, do you want to right a book together again?" And of course, we say, "Oh, God no. We don't want any piece of that, because things are peaceful now, life is good in our house." And then she said the words that would change our opinion on this, which were, "I'll pay you a lot of money." And we said, "Oh, okay."

* SlutShaming: Terra does it some to Aislin, but it's justified in that Terra doesn't really know her, she's not really supposed to be a good guy, and based on what we know about Aislin, it's not at all true

* DistractedBySexy: The characters are known for thinking about sex during very serious moments and action sequences. And it happens to everyone who meets Adam.

-The book's opening line

* WhamLine: This section from Eve's narration: "I'm thinking of an apple when the streetcar hits and my leg severs and my ribs crumble and my arm is no longer an arm but something unrecognizable, wet and red." And that's the ''opening line of the book''.

* NeverTrustATrailer: The back cover of the American edition hilariously misrepresents the book by painting Solo as nothing more than a side character and ending with this:

* BigBrotherIsWatching: There are cameras everywhere in [=SpikerFarm=] - ''everywhere'', except the bathroom. It wasn't too big a problem at first, since Solo had the computer skills to hack into the camera systems, but once [[spoiler: [=SpkerFarm=] employees found out what he was doing and locked him out of his computer]], it became a much bigger problem.

* EvilGenius: [[spoiler: Terra Spiker.]]

* LivingWithTheVillain: Eve obviously lives with her mom, the BigBad.

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