The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

3.0

writing a review although it's been ages since i read that book. I love the cover and the "idea" of the book. But after reading i was immensely disappointed, maybe this book would have been a 5/5 if i was like 12. the mc is so annoying and the typical "im so poor like rlly rlly poor but so hardworking and smart, oh btw my moms also dead"-girl. Like fine, i dont have anything against this trope if its carried out well but in this case this whole thing made her whole personality well not whole personality but hers was so two dimensional it pissed me off. And another thing that bothered me was the "romance". ofc the two rich handsome grandsons of deceased multi mutli multi rich billionaire guy fall immediately in love with mc avery because she's so interesting and different and special ad smart (*eye rolling) and jamison annoyed the heck out of me this guy whats even his personality all he does is talk nonsense??? ok i hold a personal grudge against him. i cant stand this anymore, this book was just 80% clichees and 20% riddles on top of that those riddles weren't even interesting. I'm a sucker for clichees but this was just carried out badly or maybe i've just grown out of it. only recommend for 12-13 years old.
