The Hawthorne Legacy (The Inheritance Games #2) by Jennifer Lynn Barnes --Restarting September 8th 2025

[Sibil]

Done
(view spoiler)[Well, this was all more complicated than what I was expecting, and I have to say that I am a bit disappointed that Avery is not Toby's daughter. The author is pretty devious!
And on one hand, I am pretty happy with how things are evolving between Jameson and Avery. Even if there is Grayson too..
I can't really take a side here. I just hope that things won't get worse between the brothers!!! (hide spoiler)]

I am with you about Libby! I think that my biggest pet peeves in books, especially lately, are "sisters", be they the younger or the older, I have a really hard time..."

I think I have the same pet peeve lol, (view spoiler)[the relationship between sisters is somehow almost always annoying to me in books? Maybe because I don't have a sister myself or something lol (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Oh my I agree!! The cabin seemed lovely. Hahaha same here, I'd love to join you :P But I could definitely do without the murder attempts lmao
Grayson's kiss was so cute :') I can't wait to see who she'll end up with, because I really don't know it right now! (hide spoiler)]

[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[I agree, and I also hope that one of them doesn't end up with that Eve girl, because it feels like that's where this is going; since she looks so much like Emily.. I'm scared XD (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

I actually finished this a few days ago but I didn't have time to update lol sorry! So here are my updates

Chapter 70
(view spoiler)[I loved the scene with Grayson, I need more of them :’) I’m glad he’s finally done pushing her away though :)))) Rebecca exhausts me so much ugh. She keeps pulling the victim, “my life is so hard" card and it annoys the crap out of me. I don’t care about you or your family, can you just freaking leave forever thanks. Sorry XD Libby is leaving for their home town with Nash, they’re definitely going to be together by the end of that trip. Poor Alyssa though. And Avery kissed Jameson, poor Gray :( I’m still not sure if I like Jameson, but I think I’m definitely hoping for a relationship with both of them lmao.

Aaaaah so Toby was a Laughlin! Ew then she is family of Rebecca ugh. But yeah, Mrs Laughlin’s reaction was cute. Why was she about to tell someone on LIVE TELEVISION that Toby is her father and thus confirm that he is both alive and related to her??? What is wrong with her?????? Seriously she’s so stupid sometimes.

Wait Eli was behind all that? Damn dude. Holy shit the plot thickens even more; her mother was Kaylie’s sister!!! There are so many twists that I don’t expect and I love it. I loved the postcards though, and how he wrote them all to Hannah :’) (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

Chapter 82
(view spoiler)[Lmao Xander, ‘I just happened to have my ear against the door’ ahahaha. I like him a lot more without Thea and Rebecca lol. I must admit that Jameson is REALLY cute in this book dammit. I’m not sure who I’m rooting for now, I need more Grayson. I feel bad for both of them once she’ll choose though :/

oh damn she got bombed?? But why didn’t Grayson do anything????? Shit dude I want to root for you but Jameson is definitely coming off better in this book.. Why do I feel like one of them is gonna die by the end of this. Wait what, Ricky is her father????? WHAT. What’s going on dude.
Skye was behind this? Why does it feel like that’s not true? It seems too convenient..

Of course that bitch of a Thea is involved again. I don’t give a crap about Rebecca, I'd rather she disappeared lol bye. Ughhhskkdbdekwl I’m so annoyed that she’s the reason that Avery is now taken again ugh. Jameson was cute though dammit where’s Gray. (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

Finished
(view spoiler)[Grayson’s dad? Really? Hm. And now she is suddenly Toby’s daughter again? I don’t freaking get it man. The back and forth is exhausting, can we just get some clarity please. Mellie by the way - what a bitch. Why would she help that dude?
What’s up with all these people and their loyalties.

Okay it’s getting a bit too crazy now; Eli and Mellie are brother and sister and THEIR sister is Toby’s daughter? That’s a bit too far fetched for me. I wonder what the disk was. Although I massively dislike Rebecca and Thea, I do respect how much Thea would do for her.

Nooo seriously that’s the end? It’s cool that she wants to be badass now, but seriously?😭😭 I don’t want to wait this long aaaaah!! And she’s being written towards Jameson dammit; I did like him a lot in this book, but Gray :’) They’re definitely going to find the other fathers in the next book and solve the disk thingy, but I can’t wait to see how it’ll all end, and with whom she'll end up 👀 Eve is definitely gonna make an appearance and I DON’T look forward to that; I’m scared the boys will fall for her because she looks so much like Emily. I’m so scared, my heart is going to be broken no matter what guy she ends up with :’( (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I thought that that was it for me, too, I mean about the "I don't have a sister part", but really usually the sisters in books are just there to drag down, in one way or another, the MC. Always. Usually the are the one that are too cuddled or too protected because "the world is a bad place and she must be protected" or she is the one "too good that can see the bad in people, hence she is a danger for herself and for the others" or we have the envious and not at all sisterly that tries her best to make the MC's life miserable. I mean, not one of these is sane. At all! I don't have a sister, but I have a brother and we have a normal relationship. And when we get brothers in books they, too, have more often than not normal, or as normal as you can get, relationships. It is just with sisters. Argh!! (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[There are a ton of twists and turns!!! And Eli, wow! I didn't see that coming!!!!

And I won't oppose a relationship with both brothers, at least we won't have to choose a side!!!! ;) (hide spoiler)]

[Sibil]

Danique wrote: "Chapter 82

(view spoiler)[When Xander is not with the other two girls is really funny, and he really has his moments!
But I really hope that all the brothers would get out alive. It would be a shame for one of them to die!!! And it would hurt quite a lot!!!
I don't understand why Greyson simply petrified! Maybe it is some sort of PTSD?
And I was really really really hoping that her father was not Ricky. Anyone but him!!!!!

Yeah you're right, they somehow always drag them down! Not sure why that is, but it's always the case..

Hehehe it would be a great solution for all ;)

(view spoiler)[Yeah, Xander is great without them! But with them, not so much. I hope they'll all survive too, but I'm not sure if they will.. I do think they will, I'm just not sure. I hate that Ricky is her father!! I would've really liked it if it would've just been Toby dammit :( (hide spoiler)]

YAY! Welcome!

(view spoiler)[Holy crap, could Avery really be Toby’s daughter. I guess it makes sense right now. Especially if Toby was adopted and no one knew. Why else would Toby sign Avery’s birth certificate? Even if he didn’t sign his own name, which is odd too. Did her dad know that he wasn’t her biological father if all this is true? Maybe he found out later and that is why he stopped acting like a dad to her when she was little? (hide spoiler)]

[Vanessa Gayle ⚔️]

45%

(view spoiler)[Oh my lord, there are so many clues and my head is spinning!

It really sucks about Grayson and his father. His father knew about him the entire time and didn’t even care. What a complete waste of space. Why would he not care about his own kid? Is it because he had an affair? Ugh, makes me mad.

I think the the emancipation will be good as long as they can get it done without her father and Sky messing things up. (hide spoiler)]

[Marta the Booktrovert]

guys!! I finished it!! I couldn't put it down!! I am enjoying your reactions and comments and I can't wait to hear your final thoughts!!

[Aaron]

Hi guys. Do you mind if I join you on this one? I probably won’t be able to start it until tomorrow morning but I should get through it pretty quick.

[Jane]

I just started reading this and I’m at 19%!!! So good so far!

[Vanessa Gayle ⚔️]

79%

(view spoiler)[The chapters in this book are so short. Is that normal for mystery/thrillers?

Holy crap, what kind of drama is going on? So now Toby is the Laughlin’s grandson and he was adopted by the Hawthornes?

OMG, the plot thickens! So Avery’s mom is the sister of the girl that was killed on that island? Killed by Toby? This is getting crazy. (hide spoiler)]

The more the merrier. =D

[Vanessa Gayle ⚔️]

Finished!

(view spoiler)[Okay, my heart. Jameson waited for her every day after the bomb? And what he said to her? Swoon.

I can’t believe Grayson didn’t try to help her after the bomb went off. I am so disgusted by that.

Whoa, so Toby has a daughter but it isn’t Avery. But he considers Avery his daughter. It was kind of touching but I agree with Avery. I think that it is a mistake to stay away. There’s the Laughlins to think about and the Hawthornes too.

I thought that the end was cute with the coin and the kiss. I am really wondering what the last book is going to be about after all this. (hide spoiler)]

YAY!! it was a fast-read, isn't it?

(view spoiler)[I understand why Grayson didn't help her. I think he was scared and because of everything that happened with Emily he just froze.. unless there is more there we don't know.

The ending was terrific, I'm glad she chose Jameson though.

I wonder what's next, now Avery is in full control of the inheritance, and I think someone will try to stop her. I still don't trust Xander... I thought it was so weird he was a step ahead of everything, maybe he really bugged Avery's phone. (hide spoiler)]

I can't wait for book 3!!

[Vanessa Gayle ⚔️]

Monogamist wrote: "♛Vanessa♛ wrote: "Finished!"

(view spoiler)[Yeah, I figured Grayson's failure to help her was de to some internal trauma or PTSD from Emily. At least, I was hoping that is all it was. I never got the feeling that he didn't care about her enough to save her if it came down to it.

I definitely think that Xander bugged her phone. Though, I don't mistrust him for some reason. (hide spoiler)]

[Aaron]

♛Vanessa♛ wrote: "17%

[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ I hadn’t even thought of where her dad fit into this. You might be right. I wonder what he’s doing back now though? I wonder when Tobias Hawthorne learnt his son was alive. I’d assume he knew the whole time but I don’t know how he could’ve. (hide spoiler)]

[Ta || bookishbluehead]

♛Vanessa♛ wrote: "17%

[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[I was thinking the same, why else would he sign her birth certificate. But on the other hand maybe there were some other reasons behind it. But that could also be the reason why the old Hawthorne was in the diner to meet young Avery, when he knew his son had something to do with her mother (and potentially being Averys dad).

Maybe you're right and her "biological" father knew that she wasn't his child and only comes crawling back now, that he thinks he can get money out of her. (hide spoiler)]

[Ta || bookishbluehead]

38% (view spoiler)[Why is Ricky at this fundraiser? he shouldn't be allowed anywhere near Avery.

And I'm so sorry for Grayson that his father doesn't want to see him. He probably knows that Grayson is his son. (hide spoiler)]

[Ta || bookishbluehead]

♛Vanessa♛ wrote: "45%

[spoilers removed]

(view spoiler)[Yes, I'm so sorry for Grayson. It must suck to be treated that way.

I also hope that Ricky and Skye can't do anything about the emancipation and that they don't find a way to Averys inheritance that way. (hide spoiler)]

[Ta || bookishbluehead]

72% (view spoiler)[Why are these chapters so damn short?! It feels like the book is flying by. There are so many secrets and so much is happening. I wonder if Toby really is Averys dad and if he really can and would want to challenge the will. (hide spoiler)]

[Ta || bookishbluehead]

♛Vanessa♛ wrote: "79%

[Spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[No, normally the chapters aren't that short. At least not in the thrillers I read.

On the one hand I don't want this book to end, on the other I want to know everything right now. (hide spoiler)]

[Ta || bookishbluehead]

The End (view spoiler)[OMG, wow, wow, wow. These books are so good.

And Jameson <3 I'm looking forward to see how this thing with Avery works out in the next book.

So Toby isn't Averys biological dad, but he still thinks himself as her father. I wonder what he and Oren talked about. And if someone else will try to kill Avery in the next book. (hide spoiler)]

[Ta || bookishbluehead]

♛Vanessa♛ wrote: "Finished!

[Spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[I'm wondering the same thing, the mystery behind Avery's inheritance seems to be revealed. But I'm really keen on finding out. (hide spoiler)]

[Ta || bookishbluehead]

Monogamist wrote: "♛Vanessa♛ wrote: "Finished!

(view spoiler)[Interestingly enough, I don't mistrust Xander and that could be a mistake. I was thinking that he probably has at least bugged one of the phones, because he knew so much more than he was supposed to, but still I don't think he's really after Avery. But who knows, maybe that's what we'll find out in the next book. I thought it was super cute when he made those robots for Max, though. (hide spoiler)]

[Aaron]

66%
(view spoiler)[ At least now Ricky and Skye can’t do anything about the emancipation since they aren’t actually related. I feel sorry for Libby in all of this. She’s been dragged out of her life and forced to stay in a big house with nothing to do and now she’s learnt she isn’t even related to her sister. I’m glad her and Nash are getting to travel a bit now even if it’s for Avery’s benefit.
I like Max but she seems to be very energetic. I’d be frustrated at her for not sitting down and dealing with what’s wrong by now. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Grayson’s father knowing him probably means all the brothers dads know about them. That’s pretty heartbreaking for all four of them. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ I trust Xander despite him probably bugging quite a few phones but I think there is more to him that we don’t know about yet. He always seems to know more than he lets on. I reckon the next book with have a little more focus on him as well as Avery and Jameson’s relationship. I hope there aren’t any more attempts on Avery’s life in the next one. I feel like we’ve done that enough now. (hide spoiler)]

[Aaron]

Done
(view spoiler)[ I really liked that ending. Toby seems like a genuinely decent dude despite what he’s been through. I want to know more about Nash and Libby’s trips. We didn’t get to see them interact much in this one. I wouldn’t mind a spin off series focused completely on Libby one day. I like her a lot. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

Chapter 2
(view spoiler)[ This one is already getting interesting. I absolutely love Nash and how he's like the chill one, but I have a feeling he's pretty feral when he's being protective and I can see that with Avery's sister. I think the dynamic with Alisa will be more uncomfortable this time since she can't even look at him. It's tense. Really eager to see how the mystery of Toby goes now that Greyson knows he's alive. I can't decide if I trust him with the knowledge though. He may have told Avery to keep it a secret but who knows. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

Chapter 7
(view spoiler)[That whole sledgehammer scene with Xander made me laugh. I love how possessive he was over it. lol. Kinda bold of the the groundskeeper to tell them where they could be when she owns the house. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

Chapter 14
(view spoiler)[ Not to shocked by the paternity news. I think it was pretty clear from the first book and there was some sort of mix up with the DNA test somehow. I figured someone had paid to have to switched or something, but it also makes sense that Toby was adopted. (hide spoiler)]

[Ryn]

Through Chapter 20
So excited to be reading this second one. And it is not disappointing. I LOVE the (view spoiler)[ Toby might be Avery's father twist. And with the adoption, did not see that coming even a little. (hide spoiler)]

[Ryn]

Through Chapter 44
So apparently this is going to be the book about ALL the (view spoiler)[ fathers! Again, love the twist with the boys' names being their fathers' last names. I'm having trouble keeping everyone straight in this book though. Honestly, I sort of wish Barnes wasn't bothering with the whole Grayson/Jameson love triangle. But I love all the puzzles and the clues and answers they're turning up - it just makes this series so fun. (hide spoiler)]
