The Brothers Hawthorne by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
3.5
A book titled “Brothers Hawthorne” yet Xander and Nash remain side characters 😭
I enjoyed the puzzles, they were fun to go through, but they didn’t really hit as hard as the other books.
Not too much of a fan of the pov switch.
At the beginning I was really more interested in Jameson’s story, but towards the end I was more interested in Grayson’s and seeing him bond with Gigi. I felt like Grayson’s arc was more satisfying.
Jameson and Avery’s relationship was cool to check up on. I was always a fan of Jameson getting with Avery, but I wasn’t too much of a fan of reading their relationship from Jameson’s pov, it didn’t feel too romantic - especially contrasting it with Grayson who seemingly speaks more emotionally about Avery in his pov than Jameson. Kinda strange.
I never will care about Eve and her struggles, nor will I care for Grayson x Eve, it makes me feel sick as hell .
It was fun to see all these charas again tho! Excited for the next book, the premise of that seems fun.
