If I Fix You by Abigail Johnson

3.0

If I Fix You is the type of story with the right amount of drama, that does not get melodramatic or too poignant. It deals with family and marital issues through the eyes of a seventeen year old girl who finds solace in fixing cars. It is a talent, and soon becomes a distraction to Jill Whitaker when she gets betrayed by the two important people in her life. Jill has always been closer to her father, and shares his passion for cars and fixing them. This causes a rift with her own mother, spiralling into a marital problem that hides a secret from the past. This book deals with misplaced trust and love as well, and how parents are also capable of making mistakes. It shows how the mistakes affect the children, and how they would deal with these issues. It could either make or break their characters, and it goes back to the lessons of moving on and letting go.
