However, she's never learned anything about it, because there's no sex for the regular folk in their society (I am unclear on precisely how the babies are made, but I know science is involved). Max saw some porn and was like I WANT TO GO TO THERE. He saw she was glitching, fixed on her, and determined to see her genitals as soon as possible.<br /><br />She just wants everyone to like her, so she lets him make out with her, but doesn't understand why he wants to do that all the time. She doesn't let him go further mostly because she only wants to talk about how to save everyone.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555254327067745492.post-18899117809175078162012-08-08T08:08:47.968-04:002012-08-08T08:08:47.968-04:00Maybe you'll like it?Maybe you'll like it?Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555254327067745492.post-86542894633141051752012-08-08T08:08:35.665-04:002012-08-08T08:08:35.665-04:00Max was hella creepy.

Of course, if I don't like a book in ARC form, I'm not going to buy a copy and read it again just to check for differences.<br /><br />On the other hand, I've yet to see a very positive review for this title. And no one likes Adrien's swearwords!
