OVER 9 MILLION COPIES SOLD OF THE 1 BESTSELLING SERIES Don't miss this New York Times bestselling "impossible to put down" (Buzzfeed) novel with deadly stakes, thrilling twists, and juicy secrets―perfect for fans of One of Us is Lying and Knives Out. Avery Grambs has a plan for a better future: survive high school, win a scholarship, and get out. But her fortunes change in an instant when billionaire Tobias Hawthorne dies and leaves Avery virtually his entire fortune. The catch? Avery has no idea why―or even who Tobias Hawthorne is. To receive her inheritance, Avery must move into sprawling, secret passage-filled Hawthorne House, where every room bears the old man's touch―and his love of puzzles, riddles, and codes. Unfortunately for Avery, Hawthorne House is also occupied by the family that Tobias Hawthorne just dispossessed. This includes the four Hawthorne grandsons: dangerous, magnetic, brilliant boys who grew up with every expectation that one day, they would inherit billions. Heir apparent Grayson Hawthorne is convinced that Avery must be a conwoman, and he's determined to take her down. His brother, Jameson, views her as their grandfather's last hurrah: a twisted riddle, a puzzle to be solved. Caught in a world of wealth and privilege with danger around every turn, Avery will have to play the game herself just to survive.Catch every thrilling twist and turn of The Inheritance Games Saga, including the Grandest Game, the thrilling new series set in the world of the Inheritance Games:The Inheritance Games (The Inheritance Games 1)The Hawthorne Legacy (The Inheritance Games 2)The Final Gambit (The Inheritance Games 3)The Brothers Hawthorne (The Inheritance Games 4)Games UntoldThe Grandest Game (The Grandest Game 1)Glorious Rivals (The Grandest Game 2)The Gilded Blade (The Grandest Game 3)The Same Backward as Forward For more unputdownable reads from Jennifer Lynn Barnes, don’t miss the killer The Naturals series, and The Debutantes duet.

Can't wait to keep reading the series!
Format: Kindle
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I loved this book! It kept me interested the entire time because I was constantly trying to figure out what was actually going on and why everything was happening. Every time I thought I might have something figured out, there was another clue or piece of information that made me question it again. There are quite a few characters and relationships to keep track of at first, so I did get a little confused about who everyone was and how they were connected, but once I got that straight, I was completely invested. I really liked the puzzles, secrets, family drama, and the little bit of romance mixed in without it taking over the whole story. Most of all, I loved that I genuinely wanted answers and kept reading because I needed to know where everything was leading. The ending definitely surprised me and immediately made me want to continue the series. Easy five stars for me. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ... show more

The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes was an engaging and fast-paced mystery full of twists and turns. I really enjoyed the puzzle aspect of the story — it was fun to follow along as the characters solved each clue and uncovered new secrets. The game-like structure of the plot made the story feel interactive, and the constant reveals kept me hooked. The Hawthorne family drama added tension and intrigue, making the mystery even more compelling. I never felt like the story was predictable, and each new clue added another layer to the mystery. Overall, this was a clever and entertaining read that balances suspense, puzzles, and drama, making it hard to put down. A solid four-star read. ... show more

A VERY PLEASANT SURPRISE
Format: Kindle
I bought this book on a Saturday night after reading the sample, and I have to say it was a fantastically pleasant page turning surprise. I ended up finishing the entire book in less than 24 hours, and was so engrossed in the story, when I got to the end I hadn’t even realized it. I highly recommend this book. It’s a gripping, thrilling, suspenseful ride right to the very end with twists that just when you think you have figured out everything, they take you for another turn on the roller coaster! Good book ... show more

A page turner that I couldn't put down
Format: Paperback
This book has a million reviews so what more can I say? I loved it from beginning to end and I couldn't seem to put it down. With every chapter ending I couldn't wait to start the next one. The writing was superb and the character development was excellent. I enjoyed how different each of the Hawthorne brothers were in their personalities. The little bit of romance didn't hurt the story either. Also, I liked the first-person perspective of Avery Grambs. I liked seeing how the story unfolded from her point of view. It makes you think, 'What would I do in the same situation?' All in all it was a great book and I look forward to reading the next in the series. ... show more

Enjoyed this but wish there’d been a few more clues spaced out. Kind of felt like we had to wait a long time to get something good. I do expect I will read the next one.

I'm on the fence as to whether I'll keep reading the series. Book 1 was fine, had some interesting developments, though I am not fond of sibling love triangles. It may come down to having so many other books I'd like to read, will this one make the cut? I'm not sure yet. As to my recommendation, I'd say reading book 1 is worth checking out to see if you'd like to continue with it as it has enough to guage some interest. ... show more

Puzzles, riddles, hidden tunnels, deaths; and a random girl inherits it all. Tobias Hawthorne has taught his four grandsons to play and solve riddles all their lives. But can they solve his last and final puzzle he has set out for them? Avery Kylie Grambs is a nobody. She isn't a billionaire or come from money. Avery is just a normal girl who has had a rough go at life recently. Mom's dead, her half sister has taken her in and now she's sleeping in her car. But her life is about to change for the good, bad and puzzling. I absolutely LOVE this book. It is full of twists and turns, riddles and puzzles. I don't even think I was a third of the way through this book before I went and ordered the next two books in the series. Jennifer Lynn Barnes is a great puzzle writer. She has a knack for keeping you on the edge of your seat. I found I has having a hard time putting this book down. The character development is top notch! Each character truly has a personality that is conveyed exquisitely throughout. As you read, you grow right alongside the characters. The relationships are palpable! Jennifer makes readers feel the tension, heartbreaks, pain and humor of the characters. The Inheritance Games is a MUST read for anyone who loves puzzles and a good mystery! ... show more
