A Sh*tload of Crazy Powers by Jackson Ford

I have two problems with these books.
1) they end & I have to wait a year for the next one.
2) the characters are fictional & I can't get pizza with them.

I really enjoyed this addition to the series. I'm happy with how it ends, and it makes me look forward to how the series will continue to develop. The characters (finally) seemed to grow through what they've been through, and I'm happy they are all on the same page supporting each other.

Once again, Jackson Ford does not disappoint. I love the progression of powers and can't wait for more! It's amazing how bonkers but simultaneously wholesome a book about crazy shit can be.

"Is it possible to be both disgusted with yourself and ridiculously satisfied? Fuck it."

Jackson Ford continues to make me hungry for an epic sandwich with his books.

Teagan grows up and powers up so much in this one that when the big moment happens, I was shouting “F**king yes! Do it! Do it! YESSSS!”

A Sh*tload of Crazy Powers is like Die Hard on weed and yet more based in reality if that can be said about characters who have superpowers. F**k it. I’m saying it.

Starting with the negatives, again the editing on this book is atrocious.  Typos every 5 or so pages throughout.  Thats about it though for complaints on this book.  We finally get some decent character development and growth and we get it from most of the main characters.  This one starts with its foot on the gas and doesn't let up until the last page.  It was an absolute thrill to read all the way through.  And the development at the end, omfg I cannot wait for the next book!  This is the first title in the series I would honestly recommend to most people.  The writing is also more cinematic this time which I felt added to the pace and didn't detract from the quality of the story.
