I've often seen this author's works on Audible, and they all have interesting premises, so I decided to grab one in a recent sale. Fixit is a cute and fun story, and I'll definitely read this author again.
It's sci-fi set on a human colony on another planet, but because it focuses on a mechanic, it feels more like steampunk. The first-person PoV is breezy and personal, as though the character is talking to you directly. This works really well in an audiobook, and I liked the narrator, Hollie Jackson. There are a lot of errors in the writing, like tense shifts, so I would recommend listening to the audiobook over reading the text. It's a complete story, with decent character development of Fixit as well as a plot, although it's obviously the introduction to a series; the romance just barely gets started.
Fixit is an innocent young woman, who has spent her whole life working on a farm below an opulent city, although she has never been there. Her only friends are her sentient robots, who are all kind of falling apart and have adorable personalities. This story focuses on Fixit delivering some goods to the city, and she meets her love interest along the way. The love interest feels like a superhero, and it's easy to understand why she impresses Fixit so much.
Overall I liked it and will pick up book two at some point.
