Book Reviews of Adam
Book Review: A Confusing Read
Summary: 3 Stars
The book had promise in the beginning. It started off looking for the serial killer everyone's named Eve. The build-up was good. Daniel died, and was then resuscitated after 20 over minutes, something technically and medically impossible. After that, things started to get confusing.
It wasn't clearly defined if Eve was an evil entity, a demon possessing Alex or the original Eve from biblical mythology. The last few chapters were too convenient, Lori turned out to be Alex's long-lost sister Jessica, Eve couldn't decide between possessing Daniel or Alex.
I got lost trying to figure out whether or not the priest's exorcism was working, or was Eve just being indecisive. Then came Adam, and I got all confused. The black-eye moment made me think of the demons in the TV series Supernatural, so I'm inclined to think demonic possession. But even after driving Eve/Adam out of Daniel, it was still lingering and present.
The entire story feels very Stephen King-ish, anti-climatic and tiresome, strangely enough I managed to read through it all, perhaps just to find out what happened in the end, but was utterly disappointed.
Recommended only.
