Thank you to Andye from readingteen.net for letting me review this book!4.5 SHINING SHINING STARSThis book was. So. Clever. Political intrigue. Fitted with a Sherlockesque main character and a mystery that will get your brain chugging away. Topped with witty dialogue. Mix it all together and you've got a brilliantly plotted novel with a genius set of characters otherwise known as The Fixer.I had no idea what to expect going in to this. I was thinking some kind of contemporary with a Gossip GirlA well written and engrossing book that focuses on Politics. Where do I sign up?The Fixer easily becomes one of my favorite reads this year. It is without doubt, this book is joining my Top Ten Favorite Reads of this year.For me the best kind of books is the one that makes me feel intoxicated as if I am drunk in lifes high. The Fixer evokes these feelings for me. I was instantly hooked from the very first eyes I laid on it. There is Barness trademark writing, snark, a group of teenagers bonding,
EDIT: Fucking outage... I lost my first review.Anyway, let me tell you a story. It was the best of the YA romance time, it was the worst of time when Twilight was made, it was the age of wisdom in Erotic books, it was the age of foolishness when the FSoG was published, it was the epoch of belief in Adult mystery crime books, it was the epoch of incredulity when Dan Brown's Angel and Demons shook the catholic foundation...(you get the gist) and I dreamed of reading a very good YA
This book, HOLY SHIT (Excuse my language). I thought I had somewhat figured it out while I was reading, but I was totally wrong. It was so shocking and kept me guessing until the literal last page. I am a sucker for books set on the political scene, and I love suspense and mystery, therefore, I was sold on this book from the second I read the synopsis. I really like Tess (our main character) because she is truly a strong independent girl who isn't focused on a boy (not that being focused on a
Uh... I loved the personality of the protagonist. Very endearing and heartwarming, her relationship with her Grandfather. Touching and rare in this crazy world.Q:As far as I could tell, my history teacher had three passions in life: quoting Shakespeare, identifying historical inaccuracies in cable TV shows, and berating Ryan Washburn. (c)Q:Im concerned, Tess.If youre talking about the way Mr. Simpson victimizes his most vulnerable students, I am, too. (c)Q:The words victimize and vulnerable were
This is the most dramatic thing I have read in a long time and I'm stressed
Was The Fixer a blatant rip-off of the Scandal tv series? Do I care? It's been quite a while since a book had me so completely riveted, so absolutely enthralled, and, once that happens, there's very little that will stop me from really digging that book. The Fixer was very entertaining, suspenseful, and actually managed to surprise me with a couple of twists. I need to stress how important it is to me that a book surprises me. Most thrillers, mysteries and horror stories fall through for me
