Title: The Inheritance Games
Author: Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Genre: Young Adult Mystery
In this first book of a trilogy, Avery, a teenage girl, has lived with her half sister since her mom died. However, this sister has just asked her abusive ex to move back in, so Avery has decided to live in her car until she can finish her time in high school. Then she's going to apply for every scholarship possible and get out. But suddenly, she finds out that her presence is required for the reading of some ridiculously rich stranger's will. Her confusion only grows when she discovers that nearly everything has been left to her, as long as she lives in the Hawthorne mansion with his four grandsons (who all expected to inherit), a few other relatives, and the staff (who have no idea who this girl is!) for a year. Full of puzzles, twists, mysteries and intricacies, I really enjoyed both this and the second book, and eagerly await the final book, to be published next year!
