The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes is a fastpaced book filled with mystery, puzzles, and endless twists. This book looks into the life of a 17-year-old girl named Avery Grambs who has just inherited 46.2 billion dollars from Tobias Hawthorne, a man she’s never met. Seems like she won the lottery of the century, doesn't it? The catch is: she has to move into his mansion filled with puzzles and solve all of them. She only has one year to do this, or else she will lose the inheritance. The house is also occupied by the Hawthorne family that was just disinherited. When the grandsons Jameson and Grayson show interest in Avery — in more ways than one— things only become more complicated. Now, it’s up to Avery to solve the mystery of why she of all people was picked to inherit Tobias Hawthorne’s fortune.

While reading this book, it’s easy to get invested in the mystery and the lives of the Hawthornes, as well as the romance between Avery and the Hawthorne grandsons. I would recommend this to anyone who loves a good puzzle. This book draws you in and keeps you entertained the entire time, making it impossible to put down.
