The Long Game (The Fixer, #2)

Review: The Long Game - Book #2 The Fixer Series - Jennifer Lynn Barnes - June 2016
At the end of Book #1, Tess Kendrick discovered a whole lot of secrets about who she was, including one major one that her sister Ivy was, in fact, her mother and the people she grew up, were with, were, in fact, her great-grandparents. Her whole life has been a lie and then turns out as her mother is known as The Fixer, her grandfather William Keyes is known as The Kingmaker and is one of the most powerful people around. You do not mess with the Keyes family unless you wish to suffer the consequences. In The Long Game, Tess is just getting used to being back in the "real world" after being kidnapped and things going haywire. At her High School Hardwicke Prep, they take things very seriously like Elections and three candidates are up for Student Body President. What will happen though when one of them turns up dead, and Tess was the last person to see him before he died? If that wasn't bad enough, her best friend is the murder suspect, and now Tess can't go to Ivy about it as she has too much on her plate with the President's son being possibly involved in a terrorist attack.  Is Tess following in her mother's footsteps to become the next Fixer or will she discover that she is in fact in training to become the Queen on the chess board? If you are on the lookout for a good teen action/adventure series with a strong female character and a hint of spies in today's society, then check out Book #2 in The Fixer series by Jennifer Lynn Barnes - The Long Game.

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
