The Hawthorne Legacy
by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
This is the highly anticipated sequel to the Inheritance Games. This follows up right after the first book and I really don’t want to get into the summary because I really don’t want to spoil the book. All I’m going to say is that this is about Avery and she is given a huge inheritance and doesn’t understand why and she ends up in a game to figure out why Toby Hawthorne gave her this inheritance and not his family.
I was really looking forward to this book since I loved The Inheritance Games, which reminded me of a teenage version of Knives Out. Anyway, this book disappointed me. I felt like it was a fast read and it only took me two days to read it. However, I spent most of the time waiting for something truly to happen. Like a huge twist or something, but that never happened. There were twists, don’t get me wrong and they were done well, but they weren’t the oh my gosh twists that keep you the edge of your seat. I’m not sure how I feel about the slow burn romance in this book and kind of felt like it was out of place. It was just okay and I will read the final book.
