The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t with Her Mind

De: Jackson Ford

Narrado por: Lauren Patten, Graham Halstead

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.
For Teagan Frost, sh*t just got real.
Teagan Frost is having a hard time keeping it together. Sure, she's got telekinetic powers -- a skill that the government is all too happy to make use of, sending her on secret break-in missions that no ordinary human could carry out. But all she really wants to do is kick back, have a beer, and pretend she's normal for once.
But then a body turns up at the site of her last job -- murdered in a way that only someone like Teagan could have pulled off. She's got 24 hours to clear her name - and it's not just her life at stake. If she can't unravel the conspiracy in time, her hometown of Los Angeles will be in the crosshairs of an underground battle that's on the brink of exploding . . .

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Furious, frenetic, fun, and "f**k you": All equally valid descriptions of this book and its punk rock chef/psychic warrior protagonist. It's like the X-Men, if everybody was sick of each other's sh*t, they had to work manual labor to pay rent, and Professor X was a sociopathic government stooge. A drunken back-alley brawler of a book."—Robert Brockway, author of The Unnoticeables

"Like Alias meets X-Men. I loved it."—Maria Lewis

"Ford's debut holds nothing back, delivering a sense of absurd fun and high-speed thrills that more than lives up to that amazing title."—B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog

"Teagan is a frank and funny narrator for this wild ride, which starts off with our heroine falling from the 82nd floor of a skyscraper and pretty much never slow down . . . . A fast-paced, high-adrenaline tale that manages to get into some dark themes without losing its sense of fun."—Kirkus

"Ford's breakneck pace keeps the tension high, and the thrills coming the whole way through."—BookPage

"The novel unfolds cinematically with loads of breathtaking action, a perfect candidate for film or television adaptation . . . [Readers will] want more."—Booklist

"Ford's strengths are evident in the taut acton sequences and suspenseful pacing."—Publishers Weekly

"The writing and storytelling is as clear and fun as the title indicates."—Locus

Amazing author, Perfect voice actor, SO DARK

How could the author do this to me!?!
It's so good, I had to finish, despite the fact that it gets So Dark in the middle. The end was awesome.

Not a bad story but the protagonist is annoying

I thought that it was an interesting story. Overall. I like psychic abilities, I like psycho kinesis, I like shady government organizations. I do not like overblown super cocky, insecure yet. Yet somehow overly confident protagonists that talk and think and react to situations and people as if they are a 12-year-old. I don't know how many times we heard the lead talk about finding someone like her and that she was alone in the world... But like I said, I think the story is interesting and I think it would be a lot of fun to watch if it were turned into a TV series.

So good….I hope they add all the books in the series

One of my favorite listens in a while. I love the world Ford created. I’m almost done with the second book in the series and I hope they release book 3-4!!

Good Sh*t

This book was a good time. Super powers, suspense, feels, entertaining story, complex relationships. I can’t wait to hear the next one.

Where have all the editors gone?

This might be a pretty good three or four hour listen. Unfortunately, it lasts more than 13 hours. The sample was promising; the book did not deliver. Characters are inconsistent and flat, plot is unmotivated, non-fight sequences mostly tedious. Main character has the emotional steadiness of a troubled 14 year old, the anger management skills of TheHulk, and the intellectual firepower of a rhododendron. The ending sets up the next book and the following series that makes me want to listen to any other series, even the Bobbsey twins.
Apart from that ...
