This book was perfect for ending my reading slump, and I absolutely flew through it. 
“The Hawthorne Legacy” occurs right after the events of “The Inheritance Games,” with a new mystery to solve and even higher risks at stake.  While I liked the first book more, the Hawthorne Legacy was a successful follow up to an ongoing trilogy.
One thing I appreciated was the character development of Avery, as she really embodied a smart and lovable character. Her character arc paired with the short chapters and engaging mystery created a fun read, which helped me escape reality for a few hours.
However, the love triangle kind of upset me at times, and a few plot points were not my favorite. But all in all, I will be picking up the last book when it comes out, and suggest that you do as well.

I really, really liked this book. Honestly, I thought it was even better than the first! There were so many plot twists and surprises I genuinely didn't see coming. Whenever I think I have a handle on predicting what is going to happen next, I find out I was completely wrong!

Like the first book, this one stars a bunch of teens and involves k*ssing/r*mance... except it's way worse this time.... I would've made this book 5 stars but because of this one scene I found to be especially gross, on top of being unnecessary (didn't contribute to the plot at all...), I really had to dock the entire book. (BTW, I'm 23.) Again, this didn't contribute to the plot but this scene was
a bunch of the main characters--some minors, some NOT--taking their clothes off for a game (some down to their und*rwear, and it really seemed so random/ stuck out/ forced/ in contrast to the rest of the book!) </spoiler> because it served NO PURPOSE AND WAS SO WEIRD AND MADE ME SO UNCOMFORTABLE/WANT TO THR*W UP AND AHHHH!!

I enjoyed this one but not as much as the 1st book in the series.  That's not unusual for the second in a trilogy.
