A quick read, especially in audiobook format (under 3 hours). I went into this book expecting a lighthearted fluffy book, but INHERITANCE gives more of Gossip Girl vibes. Like Gossip Girl, not all of the characters in INHERITANCE are likeable, and the characters often play each other for their own material / social advantage. There are some instances of infidelity, and an accident that is the result of toxic friendship. For a prequel, there isn't a lot of setting development, so at times it feels surface level, but I'm hoping things are more fleshed out in the rest of the series.
