this book is literally fun to read. It is full of excitement and i have no idea how to describe how good this book is. so this book actually tells you about this one girl. ordinary girl. her life change completely after this well known rich man dies. the thing is, she doesnt even know who is he. but he left this girl all of his fortune. in order for this girl to claim this money is, she have to stay in this man mansion with his 4 handsome grandchildrens who doesnt get any fortune after their grandpa dies. just read it and youll know. i read this whole book in just 3 days.. it is that good!

I really enjoyed this book and look forward to the next one! I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 mostly because it is hard to write books with these kinds of puzzles and riddles and sometimes they just didn’t deliver for me. But overall very enjoyable!

“Everything’s a game, Avery Grambs. The only thing we get to decide in this life is if we play to win.”
I am so late to this train, but I am here for it, nonetheless!!
The plot?
Beautiful
The characters?
Amazing
The twists and turns?
Outstanding
Honestly this book only took me so long to read because life got in the way - but when I was reading I found it so difficult to put it down. I fell in love with the characters, I fell in love with the hidden clues, and I fell in love with both Brothers Hawthorne. I have to say though, I am 1000% Team Grayson.
And honestly, FUCK EMILY BRO. "It's what Emily would have wanted," bro I could not give two shits about what Emily would have wanted. I feel like Karma hit the right person because she is seriously one of the most toxic and selfish characters I have ever come across. And they were all in love with her??? No sir, that was not the character for me.
But enough of that rant - I want to talk about Grayson for a minute. Tbh I hated him initially.
"Let's assume for the moment, that I know everything."
C'mon dude, get that out of hereeeee. What even was that line?! I was CACKLING.
But as the story progressed and we got to see more of Grayson's feelings towards his family and towards Avery, I found myself falling for him (hot girl down, I repeat, HOT GIRL DOWN).
And seriously, I'm all for the brooding bad-boy brother trope and Jameson definitely fits that vibe, but there's just something about Grayson being in pain and literally GIVING UP a chance with Miss Avery because he "sees how Jameson looks at her" that just gets my gears going.
“He left you the fortune, Avery, and all he left us is you.”
All in all, this is definitely a 5 star read for me and I will be picking up the next book in the trilogy, ASAP.

Fast, engaging read. Def very young adult. Wish the games/mystery built more upon themselves.
