Who wouldn't love to inherit 46.2 billion dollars from a man you've never met and never will meet? The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes is the first book in a thrilling trilogy which unfolds dark family secrets, the solving of countless of puzzles and riddles which also has a subtle hint of romance. The Inheritance Games has sold over 1.5 million copies globally! This is what impressed me and convinced me to read the first book. If you are looking for a new mystery, thriller novel which entails wealth, privilege and danger, I would definitely recommend this series.

 

After having read the first few chapters, I could not put the book down and I was truly transported into a different world. I'd had not heard a lot about the trilogy so I did not have many ideas on the book beforehand but after reading it, the entire book was absolutely incredible. Not only was the plot well written but so were the characters who individually added so much to the storyline. As soon as you would expect a specific character to go in a certain direction, a new path was unfolded which was followed by hidden passages, more riddles and new mysteries to uncover the truth. When I decided to emerge myself into a new world of affluence, riddles, puzzles and secrecy, I was deeply engrossed and quickly moved onto the next two books. 

 

The entire trilogy is filled with many turns and twists which will leave you wanting to know more. Throughout reading the trilogy, I could tell that Jennifer Lynn Barnes had put all her blood, sweat, and tears into this riveting, twisty thriller. I honestly would recommend this trilogy to everyone no matter the age or interest, especially if you are already a fan of Knives Out or One of Us Is Lying. There have been over 20,000 ratings between 4 and 5 stars, which tells you just how sensational this book is.
