"The Inheritance Games" follows Avery Grambs, the seemingly luckiest girl in the world. Avery has had a difficult life, but she is determined to keep her head down, work hard, and make it out of her town to make something of herself. Her whole life gets uprooted when she discovers that she has become the heir to Tobias Hawthorne's entire massive fortune. But Avery has no idea who Tobias is or why he left her his fortune. With a whole slew of Hawthornes who feel slighted at being cut out of the will, Avery has made some enemies. Can she uncover why she was left the fortune?
This was a really fast-paced and fun read. I loved the lighthearted mystery and all of the riddles presented throughout the book. It felt like the reader could play along with Avery to try and uncover what is really going on at the Hawthorne estate.
I really enjoy Avery as a character. She is so smart and independent. She may not be a Hawthorne, but she really fits into this world. I also love that she stays down to earth. Alot of teenagers who get massive wealth may find themselves unable to responsibly handle all of this money and power, but Avery stays true to who she is an does not seem to let the money change her.
I am hooked, and I cannot wait to continue this story and figure out what is going on.

At the beginning I was supper disappointed, like I said I thought they were going to battle out for the money hunger games style. I didn't really feel that entertained. Once I got over the way too high expectations, I started to enjoy the book.
I really enjoyed the story. The main plot was super entertaining once you actually get into the book. I loved wondering and guessing along with the characters. I thought the author did a very good job making some of the characters that I felt should be snobby because they are rich snobby. I feel like money could really get to a person's head. Hopefully the money doesn't get to Avery.
The question of the day team Grayson or Jamieson.... To be % honest I am on the fence. I have a feeling I will know maybe by the last book but right now I have no idea. I low key am rooting for both of them.
Starting the second book right away!
