the baby-sitters club: the reality of the situation by chelz22

FANDOM: The Baby-sitters Club
FIC LINK: The Reality of the Situation
AUTHOR LINK: [fanfiction.net profile] chelz22
RATING/WARNING(S): T
WIP?/WORD COUNT: 10,026
MAIN CHARACTERS: John, Dee, Mallory, Jordan, Adam, Byron, Vanessa, Nicky, Margo, and Claire Pike.

FIC SUMMARY: No one would have predicted what was in store for the Pike family.

RECCER'S NOTES: This is one of my all-time favorite fanfics. The author really captures all the Pikes' voices very well in this fic -- Adam and Jordan even have separate personalities! It definitely feels like it could be a progression of canon, even though the fic is about the Pike parents divorcing. I love how chelz22 has each Pike kid dealing with the divorce differently, and I especially love how she managed to write such a beautiful story with hardly any dialogue.
