Going back in time or ahead?

0
For a while, I didn’t know what to expect from this book. It started off talking about life outside our planet and about a brilliant scientist who claimed to his wife to have found life outside in the universe. Then in a sort of going back to the beginning, Lucy ends up in a garden in the middle of nowhere, which is conveniently self-sufficient. Add to that Adam who is already there, thinks Lucy (whom he calls Eve – yes he is partly delusional) ended up there because he asked God to send him a mate. I know, hard to stomach but let’s go with the flow for now.
So there is this going back to Genesis track but on the other hand Lucy also has some scrolls that would apparently challenge the traditional “God created Earth” theory too. So Lucy, according to Adam, is living Genesis but she knows she holds clues to defy Genesis.
And then she has that flash drive around her neck.
I’m really not sure what’s keeping me going with this book but I feel a certain pull for it. Will definitely say that if you’re not a science buff, don’t like your imagination running all over the place and don’t want to know anything about the Nag Hammadi scrolls, Genesis and anything ancient stay away from Adam & Eve.
