The Fixer Series - Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Date: 2023-08-06 06:41 pm (UTC)Media: Book, duology. The Fixer and The Long Game
Approximate Length: 100K for The Fixer, 92K for The Long Game
Where to find it: Available as ebook and paperback on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, and possibly available as either print or ebook through your local library. If anyone is interested in this canon, I'm willing to offer up one of my Eleven Library Cards to check out the e-books for this series.
Optional canon: So for the purposes of what I'm requesting, you only probablyneed the first book, The Fixer. There are some juicy character lines in the second book, The Long Game, but if you're picking this up as a pinch hit and don't have the spoons/whatever to read two books, contact me through Modzilla and I'll send you the Juiciest Lines from book two that add context for what I'd request.
Summary: When sixteen-year-old Theresa (Tess) Kendrick is sent to live with her older sister, Ivy, she has no idea that the infamous Ivy Kendrick is Washington D.C.'s #1 "fixer," known for making politicians' scandals go away for a price. Secrets pile up as each sister lives a double life...until their worlds come crashing together and Tess finds herself in the middle of a conspiracy with one of her classmates and a client of Ivy's. Suddenly, there is much more on the line than good grades, money, or politics, unbelievable family secrets are coming to life, and the price for this fix might be more than Tess is willing to pay.
What do you love about it?: So straight up, I'm not into this series for the Politics And Conspiracies and High Stakes Drama, so feel free to gloss or skip over those if you're trying to writer Fixer fic for me. (Also, please never refer to a house as being "On the Virginia side of DC" haha.) I love how all the characters are messy and human and make decisions that they regret and try to atone for and know that some decisions, you just have to live with the consequences. Ivy gives her daughter to her parents to raise seventeen years ago, and is now staring at a teenaged, estranged younger sister furious at her in the face. William Keyes tried to convince his youngest son to not enlist and drove him away, eventually losing him forever, as a result. Adam Keyes someone found out about his little brother's girl and daughter, knowing his parents would have loved nothing more to welcome that little girl, and kept it from everyone including his mother. There's so much tangled and messy humanity in this series, and people (not even necessarily Good People) just trying to make the best decisions that they can, and I love it.
What sort of things are you likely to request for it?: All the tangled and complicaged famous relationships around Ivy and Tess, Adam and William Keyes and Tommy as the ghost hovering over it all. There's so much unexplored and emotionally fraught backstory here, and I'd absolutely love anything that mined those depths.
