Ahoy there me mateys! It be Sci-Fi- Month!! This be a book two. While I try to post no spoilers, if ye haven’t read the first book in this series, the girl who could move sh*t with her mind, then ye might want to skip this. If ye keep reading this log then ye have been forewarned and continue at yer own peril . . .
The first book in the series was super fun and I was so looking forward to getting me hands on the next installment of Teagan Frost’s adventures. While book one was a popcorn book of awesome, this book had some problems that made it really feel like a middle book that just exists to only set up the final showdown. I am conflicted because the plot really pissed me off at times and yet I still want to read the next book!
I still love Teagan and her crazy, snarky self despite her incredibly selfish choices in this. While the first book stretched believability, this story didn’t really have any. The four year old baddy doesn’t think about consequences ever even though he is a genius. Teagan makes ridiculous choices that a) go directly against saving the world, and b) should have killed her. The actual plot of the book really fell flat for me. And the ending twist was actually dissatisfying. I am not sure what I wanted book two to be but it wasn’t this. According to the First Mate I was yelling out loud about character choices and author plot choices as I read. But I still want to read book three. Go figure. Arrrr!
Side note: Jackson Ford is apparently a pseudonym for an author who has written 16 bestselling novels.
Goodreads has this to say about the novel:
Teagan Frost’s life is finally back on track. Her role working for the government as a psychokinetic operative is going well and she might even be on course for convincing her crush to go out with her. But, little does she know, that sh*t is about to hit the fan . . .
A young boy with the ability to cause earthquakes has come to Los Angeles – home to the San Andreas, one of the most lethal fault lines in the world. If Teagan can’t stop him, the entire city – and the rest of California – could be wiped off the map.
Full of imagination, wit and random sh*t flying through the air, this insane adventure from an irreverent new voice will blow your tiny mind.

Not a series that I started and I think I will wait to see what the final book has in store. Sounds like middle book syndrome strikes again.

Middle book syndrome indeed. It’s hard to find good middle books. They be out there. This one wasn’t one.

Hm… Yes – I have also been known to yell and say rude words at make-believe characters, too:)). I looked at getting the first one – but something about it warned me off. And reading this excellent review hasn’t made me think I should change my mind:). I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the final book, Cap.

I will read the final one with low expectations and certainly borrow it from a library. Not gonna spend me loot on this one. It’s like a bad train wreck. I can’t help but look. What a weird phrase “train wreck.”

Hm. Though when you see a train wreck, you can see why we use it as a metaphor for a catastrophe:))
