Teagen, The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t with Her Mind, is back and things are looking up for her. She’s got a steady job working for the China Shop a cover ops team based in L.A. under the guise of a moving company, her friend Nic is getting closer to getting closer, and nobody is trying to arrest her for murder, which was a thing in the first book. She’s Teagan is the most self-absorbed hero ever to brandish special powers, but she’s getting better. Of course that can’t last.

L.A. is used to quakes, but when a sizable one levels San Bernadino, it’s time to take notice. What nobody notices except Reggie, the hacker/team lead for the China Shop, is that someone with powers like Teagen’s managed to get caught on video laying hands on the ground at the exact epicenter of the quake. Hell may have no fury like a woman scorned, but a hyper-intelligent child with massive psychokinetic powers probably comes a close second.

The good news is that the San Bernadino quake didn’t reach the full potential of the “Big One” L.A. has been dreading for decades. The bad news is things are just getting started, and the worse news is that an L.A. quake isn’t the worst thing that could happen.

Teagen and the team are going to have their hands full.

I liked the first book pretty well, but I literally couldn’t put this one down. Teagen is still annoyingly about herself, as everyone around her points out at some point, and which she vehemently denies, but she’s opening up to the people around her, and there’s hope for her yet. First, though, time to save the world.
