American Virgin #10 - Vertigo


So this is another retrospective. Adam apparently got in a car crash. As he's underwater, his life begins to flash before his eyes. With a little help from Cassie. He's remembering growing up at the Chamberlain mansion. He remembers his father left. Then his mother left. He lost family and he gained family, Morgan, Levi and Cyndi. Finally one day, after seeing his uncle having a sex party by the pool, Adam decided that he needed to be saved. So he ran to his father's show, and asked to be saved right that second. He didn't care who was watching. And that's when god spoke to him. He told him he was going to be with one woman, whom he recently saw. Since he was just in the Teen Miami Pageant, he assumed it was the girl he saw there, Cassie. But now he's realizing that he saw a bunch of girls there, and it could have been any one of them. This is devastating, because he's been recently living his life in the pursuit of Cassie's killer. He's done this out of a sense of loyalty for her, because he thought she was supposed to be his one. And it's with that revelation that this book ends. I'm still not thrilled with this book, but I am getting into the characters more. So I guess I'll see how the next story-arc plays out.
