The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I am Essence. I am in 9th Grader. I enjoy reading historical fiction and fantasy.
Avery Grambs is living the life. Not. Ever since her mom died she has been cared for by her half-sister Libby and Libby´s on-again-off-again boyfriend; Drake. Libby and Avery share the same dad who has been out of the picture for years, and so it is just them facing the world. Avery´s goals are to graduate and do something with her life to hopefully be able to stop living part-time with Libby and part-time in her beat-up old car. Suddenly her life changes when she gets notified that she has received almost the whole inheritance of the legendary self-made billionaire Tobias Hawthorne, whom she has never met, nor communicated with, ever. In shock, she is rushed into the life of the heir of the inheritance and faces the different personalities in Tobias Hawthorne´s family who barely got anything from his death compared to Avery. She must keep her head high and be careful about who she trusts with the extremely expectant kin of Tobias Hawthorne.
