I'm actually starting to like this book more. But this story felt more like I was being educated on the Hindu. Or more specifically some aspects of the Indian culture. Adam and Vanessa are touring India now. They start out in Khajuraho, but soon end up in Delhi. While all this is going on, Cyndi is back home and she's falling in love with Mel. The only problem is, she's the only one that knows that Mel is actually a woman. She found out the first time they went to have sex. It's a little hard to hide that fact. She was freaked at first, but now that she's gotten to know him/her better, it doesn't bother her as much. The only thing she's really worried about is how she's going to tell the rest of the family. Adam calls her, and she tries to tell him, but he's so wrapped up in the excitement of the trip, and the feelings that he has for Vanessa, that he doesn't really give her a chance to explain it all. It also appears that he's still being haunted by Cassie's ghost. In India it seems like there's a lot of sexual energy in the air. And it's rubbing off on Adam and Vanessa. Causing them to rub off on each other. At the end of this issue, their guide, noticing the attraction between them, gives them an Indian blessing. I'm not sure if I'm actually enjoying the book now, or if it's just easier to read since I'm starting to remember and understand the characters. But whichever way . . . it is more enjoyable. My only complaint right now is that it seems like in all the different countries that we're visiting, a significant part of the story is being spent on tutoring us. Thanks . . . but I buy comics as an escape. So I'd rather see more plot and dialogue than the cultural lessons.
