I think this might be my least favorite book from the entire series, but I believe it's alright. Also, Jameson and Avery have my heart. 🥹

I like the hopeful ending: it read a bit like a final instalment tbh.
A couple of different mysteries intertwining, and another raising of stakes.
Romance, and especially the love triangle, remains an idle tack-on, presumably for marketability.

“I don’t believe in destiny or fate—I believe in choice. Love wasn’t just a choice—it was dozens, hundreds, thousands of choices. Every day was a choice.”
This book felt a bit... unnecessary. I wasn't sure how it would end, since The Hawthorne Legacy seemed to wrap up the majority of the loose ends. And then the ending happened and I understood. But it still felt a bit... contrived? I don't know how to explain it. I just preferred The Hawthorne Legacy and The Inheritance Games over this book. And yes, I see the intention of having the spin-off series being the Grandest Game. And I'm excited for that! But first... spoilers.
Overall, I think the Naturals Series that I read around the same time last year is better than The Inheritance Games.

I wanted to like this one more...but it had such a HUGE buildup, and was leading to SOOOO many things, and then boom it's over, the thing happened, and it's the end of the series. I just...some parts felt forgotten and left out, we didn't really get closure for some people.

Great conclusion to the trilogy.
I wasn’t sure where some of the loose ends would wrap up, and if you can keep track of all the families and all the varying puzzles then it does weave together quite well.
As always, the game was afoot and it was great with twists I didn’t see, and some I did. The journey was fun.

I am very glad that the finale of this trilogy did not disappoint me. It was just as fast paced as the other books in the series and just as fun to read. I didn't love the storyline as much as the ones from the other two books (especially because I hate manipulators who pray on people's insecurities. That's like one of my biggest no-go's. I STRONGLY dislike Eve) The ending was clichee but I still liked it and thought it was great. Honestly this whole series has just been so much fun to read I don't even want to over-analyse them. Are they the best books ever? No. There are a lot of things I didn't necessarily like but the whole thing was fast past, interesting and I just really enjoyed the puzzles. I did not need the things that I usually need from books here, because it was so strong in other aspects. As someone who LOVES secret rooms and secret doors and all of those things, this whole series feels like the absolute perfect fantasy of a younger me. What do you MEAN I could inherit billions and like 6(?) Libraries??? It's pretty much my dream. So yes, I very much enjoyed the escapism and fun-ness of this whole reading experience and if that is something you think you would like too, go read it :)
