Really compelling and addictive! I couldn't stop reading, although I did see some twists coming. Still, I loved it.

Compelling from the first sentence. While some plot points are a little too convenient, The Fixer is an intriguing whirlwind that I did not want to put down.

I saw that someone compared this book to the tv show Veronica Mars (which I loved), and already being a fan of Barnes' The Naturals series I decided to give it a try. I am so glad that I did. Although I did not love it as much as I did The Naturals series, I still really enjoyed it. The beginning of the book was slow going, but after a few chapters it picked up and had me on the edge of my seat till the end.
Plus that twist at the end...I usually see those things coming, but for some reason I didn't on this one. I don't know if I was just so immersed in the story that I missed the signs, or what.

I liked this so much more than I thought I would! I don't really know why I liked it so much; I just know that it was hella entertaining, and I adored all of the characters. The only problem is that I don't have the second book, and I made the mistake of reading reviews for it and then reading spoilers. So that sucks; now I have to wait forever to read the next one, in hopes that I'll suddenly forget what the spoiler was.

This book started off with some strong Veronica Mars vibes, which is a plus in my book and I was intrigued by the premise - can the fixer fix everything?

At first I was definitely going to give this book three stars because I love Jen's writing so much but this one just didn't do it for me, BUT THEN: it got really good. And it was just as good as any other JLB book and *squeal* I love it. I was really a huge fan of the familial plot twist omg never saw that coming. I'm glad it seemed like there would be a sequel. BRING ME MORE JLB!!!!
