First of all, the sequel being titled Random Sh*t Flying Through the Air gives me life. You don't even understand how much I appreciate these titles.

So I've never watched Alias so I cannot say much about that comparison but this definitely reminded me of a mash up of several shows but Scorpion and X-Men definitely stand out. This was quite a fast paced and a bit chaotic/mind boggling book. There wasn't much time to process what happened because something else would happen immediately after. I definitely want the next book to delve more into exactly WHAT created Teagan and the others with Gifts since we know there are others who have different abilities.

The ending alliance reveal surprised the hell out of me. It was pure chaos but I love how Teagan took that experience and made her be more up front with the people around her instead of hiding herself and her inner monologues. I was also shocked how the "romance" ended but I sort of appreciated it for not going the way most books do.
