I love puzzles and riddles. In fact, I don't usually enjoy YA mystery because I can never understand why they decide to be detectives and don't call the police, but here it makes a lot more sense because Avery and the Hawthorne brothers are not crime-solving, they are puzzle-solving. It's very fun. THIS MAN DID NOT HAVE A PERSONALITY. HE WAS JUST A TRENCH COAT OF FORTUNE COOKIE QUOTES. FLEXED HIS ABS A LITTLE AND CALLED IT A DAY. Avery has a plan: keep her head down, work hard for a better future.Then an eccentric billionaire dies, leaving her almost his entire fortune. And no one, least of all Avery, knows why. GIRL JUST STFU😩anyways…hm what other side characters were there. i don’t like the boys’ mother at all. i don’t really like anyone but jameson, grayson, nash, libby, and avery.

None of the characters have real personalities, so I had a hard time keeping straight who was who. Especially among the four brothers, it felt like they were all approximately the same person, just slightly apart in age. They all spoke in the same ostentatious way and all seemed to have varying degrees of crushes on Avery. ah, its been so long since I last read a mystery and this just made me remember how much I miss it. Once again, I have fallen in love. The characters, the plot, everything about this was just amazing. They were actually my favorite characters, lmao. Xander is my favorite favorite (yes, x2), he's such a cutie and I kind of saw coming that he knew his grandpa's plan/game to keep them together. For me, it was very obvious since the moment that Xander said that he saw his brothers fight for win while he was close to his grandpa and ate with him. Xander is funny and charming. Nash also was okay, with his cowboy boots and his lazy smile. I can't complain of him, tho I wished he would've had some more of participation. I need more of these two boys, ok? ok.Overall, I loved this!! I would definitely recommend this if you are looking for a fun mystery with great plot twists & an awesome cast of characters. I'm definitely looking forward to the sequel! 😁💖 The plot follows Avery, a poor teen living in her car, who becomes the world’s youngest billionaire when Tobias Hawthorn leaves almost all of his inheritance to her. But, there’s a catch. Avery has to live in Hawthorn House, which is filled with secret passages and riddles, for at least one year, or else all of the money would be sent to charity. Naturally, the deceased Hawthorn guy’s family is… to put it mildly, jealous of her. To put it as it is, they’re feeling murderous. Now, Avery has to survive in the house for a year. Yes, I said survive. Because there’s danger waiting at every turn, yadda yadda. *rolls eyes in boring* This was SO GOOD!👌 I DEFINITELY understand the hype now. The Inheritance Games was a twisty, entertaining mystery that I thoroughly enjoyed. I really liked Avery as a character. She was genuinely likeable and smart, and reading from her point of vie

The two handsome brothers keep her fairly well occupied during her time in Hawthorne House. There's riddles, puzzles and games of all sorts, as they try to get to the bottom of the mystery behind the infamous Will. I also really liked the development of the plot and the secrets were revealed in a way that made the tension rise and rise. The pacing was also really nice and since I was invested from the beginning, the foreshadowing and little hints were visible at times but after reading the reveals, all of them were clear. If you haven't read the book and want to, but don't want any spoilers, please don't read any further. It seems like I can't restrain myself when it comes to write a review without any single spoiler. I'm sorry, I didn't ask for this, lmao.I'm not a big fan of love triangles... I'm not a fan of that trope. Period. Even more when they're not well developed and it's clear as day with whom the mc will end up with. It seemed like Jameson was pushing himself away from Avery just to give Grayson some space to make his "move", which was ridiculous and illogical. Avery was just a pawn. If there's one thing the Hawthorne family isn't, it's fine. They were a twisted, broken mess before you got here, and they'll be a twisted, broken mess once you're gone.” And I was also let down by the big reveal, too. It was just really, really frustrating, and I kind of wondered what the point was. Knowing there's a sequel, I almost feel like the book might have been more of a set up for the next story; we now know all the characters, they've all reached a certain place because of the events of this book, and maybe The Hawthorn Legacy might be the realstory. Because I'm left feeling, after all that, that's it? Really?
