The Teleportation Accident: A Novel | Ned Beauman

I've been meaning to read Beauman for ages. He just sounds like he'd be right up my alley. Maybe I'm completely wrong, but I suspect he's similar to Nick Harkaway.

pan

So much writing, so little meaning. Egon wants sex but twists himself around. There are characters everywhere and I don't care about any of them. The 1930s were decadent. I don't get any more out of it. Oh, and demons but they're entirely peripheral.

Received cash as a belated Xmas gift. Naturally I stopped by Half Price Books where I picked up the above. "Scott, what's that amazing looking box set on the left?" I'm so glad you asked! See next post for answer!

becausetrains @JPeterson haven't actually read beyond the first chapter lol. I keep thinking I'll be down to read it but haven't been in a mystery mood for a while. Guess we need to keep each other accountable! 8y

Question- Have you ever purchased a book despite mediocre reviews simply due to the fact you liked the cover art? This was my latest. I have not read it, but reviews hover around a 3.0

Liberty This book is 🔥🔥🔥 and has my favorite ending ever. But it is NOT for everyone. 9y

NerdyRev @Liberty You and I have very similar tastes in books, so if you say 🔥🔥🔥 then I am more than likely going to enjoy it. Woot! 9y

Liberty @NerdyRev It's bonkers. 9y

BookishFeminist I do this all the time! I like to go into books without much info so I tend to ignore negative reviews- I'm more inclined to like a book & often end up loving things that got mediocre reviews! People can be picky 😜 9y

NerdyRev @BookishFeminist I completely agree. People definitely can be picky and I have often wound up loving mediocre reviewed books, hence the risk. With @Liberty's stamp, I just got more excited. 9y

It's Fun Friday Photo time! Today's photo: Take a picture of the book with your favorite ending. And be sure to tag me in your photo! This is mine: I like weird, sad and/or dark endings best, so the ending of THE TELEPORTATION ACCIDENT had me saying, "DOUBLE EWE TEA EFF, WHAT DID I JUST READ?!" ??

brendanmleonard Ooohhhh fun idea indeed! 9y

becausekafka Litsy glasses ftw 9y

mauveandrosysky The weirder, sadder, and/or darker the better! 👍🏻 9y

Sara_Planz Those glasses. Love them so much!! 9y

DaveNeufeld Literally picking this up from the bookstore today, it was in the online clearance section for $7, seems like a steal 9y

Rebeccak Soo good!! 9y

hwheaties Love the Litsy stickers. Want!! 9y

GregZimmerman YES!!!!!!!!! 9y

Ellsbeth Is there a way to see all the other Friday posts? I'd love to see what others posted. I find myself missing hashtags. 9y

Liberty @Ellsbeth As soon as Litsy has hashtag capabilities, I'll start using one. 😊 9y

Ellsbeth Great! They are doing a good job so far. I'm excited to see how they develop the app. As The Queen of Litsy, I'm sure they will listen to your feedback! 9y
