I want to reallllllly like these, but I'm only finding them mostly okay and entertaining, which is starting to annoy me. Yes, there are whiplash levels of twisty, interesting reveals, but the puzzles and clues feel kind of basic. Combined with the angsty love-triangle-ness of it all, it just feels a bit juvenile compared to other YA mysteries I've enjoyed. It's still a pretty fun ride, though, so I'm definitely go on to book 3. And Max is the best — she's with 3 stars just on her own!

i was gonna give this somewhere between 4 and 5 but then so much happened in the last couple chapters it kinda felt a bit overwhelming and was a bit all over the place. i did realllyyyyyyy enjoy this tho!!! this is my favorite series i've read in a long time. again i'm always a little surprised on how heavy the romance is but honestly i think this had good moments where there was no thought of it. sometimes though i just wanna shake avery like GIRL STOP THINKING ABOUT GRAYSON OR JAMESON THIS IS NOT THE TIME 😭 something crazy related to the mystery will happen and suddenly you''ll just read one of those two names like girl 💀

liked it a bit less than the first one but it was still good.

I had high expectations for this sequel, and it did not disappoint.

The ending was satisfying, so I’m very curious to see what happens in “The Final Gambit” next August.

I’m team Jameson…but also might be team Grayson😅



Updated on 9/18/22 after rereading:
Wow! I didn’t realize how much of the plot I’d forgotten about.

The first time I read this book was a few months after I’d read the first book in the series, and I definitely enjoyed it more this time around since I reread it right after rereading The Inheritance Games.
