I love the start of this series kept me on edge and was a fun ride all the way through! :) ( )

Well, well, well.
I THOUGHT I might like this puzzle mystery, thought it would be in the vein of the classic The Westing Game, but sadly, it was not.
Maybe I've become skilled at seeing through red herrings (don't think so), but I absolutely guessed, after just the first chapter, what the big cliffhanger would be.

This one is YA and while I think the teen crowd would absolutely enjoy, the premise of having 1 super smart, but poor, teen girl being forced to live in the mega mansion of 4 handsome, wealthy half-brothers, and simultaneously blowing hot and cold for almost all of them, I did not.

Avery (said teen girl) internal dialog just grated on me, sorry. For a smart girl, she does some not-so-smart things.
I did love the phone conversations of her sassy, irreverent best friend, Maxine (Max).

I see that this is a 4-book (so far) series.
Unsure if I have the patience for this soap opera for 3 more books. ( )

I loved this so much! It's a mystery, but more like a game show than anything else. ( )

Read this because a friend recommended.
It was too young and focused on love triangles with rich white teens for me. ( )

A fun, twisty start to the Inheritance Games series. I love all of the puzzles that Tobias left for Avery and the Hawthorne boys to solve. Looking forward to reading the next book in the series. ( )
