i did this for tfota series, so let's do it for the inheritance games now. i've read like 200 ish pages of the first book (i forgot to do this lmaoo) and i'm up to the part where avery hears someone in her bedroom walls and she's just gone to libby's room. i went into this completely blind (all i knew was the information from the blurb, and also i knew there was a character called grayson bc of the comparisons ppl make between him and aaron warner from shatter me). so far, i love avery bc she's realistic and relatable and a strong fmc. also i love jameson so so so so much he's so baby, but i feel like if/when grayson starts to come in more i may grow to like him equally or maybe even more (but i doubt it bc idk but at the same time i loved locke sm from the cruel prince and look what happened w him!!) so yeah that's it for now. oh also oren is actually an icon and xander is so cute and funny i love him fr. and i want to shove thea's head down the toilet but yk
#idk how to feel abt nash and libby#i love both characters but i feel like i need to see their dynamic a biitttt more#reading the inheritance games#inheritance games#ALSO THIS BOOK MAKES ME SO HAPPY BC I REALISE THINGS AT THE EXACT MOMENT AVERY DOES#like ik thats the point but i mean when it was less obvious#like the bridge thing i speculated that it had smth to do w the creaking the first time it was mentioned#also as soon as oren or alisa (cant remember) said the 'winchester rifles' or whatever they were called#i realised that as well#so proud

Something I’ve noticed in jlb’s more recent writing is that she’s appealing a lot more to like the “tiktok” audiences. idk if that makes sense 😭
but like her books are getting FREAKIER by the SECOND. for example in the that night in prague excerpt there were so many instances of sexual innuendos. and before anyone comes for me I GET THAT AVERYJAMESON ARE LIKE THAT, they were in the og trilogy and they are now and honestly love them for that. but I feel like in the og trilogy jennifer kept it more up to interpretation, there was more suspense and tension than outright nods to it. (like that one time jameson came in covered in mud and he he was like “guess” — that scene is actually ingrained in my mind)
Now this wouldn’t bother me if it was like that in the beginning but the fact that she’s slowly adding more of this into her series shows that she’s getting influenced by audiences who want more of that, and idk how to feel about it. Like how savannah and rohan are meant to be enemies to lovers or something? and they have that whole toxic thing going on. I actually really liked them but I don’t think jlb is the best at writing stuff like that. I feel like she should stick to what she’s better at. also like old jlb would NOT have let that “savvy” “british” thing slide THOSE NICKNAMES WERE ATROCIOUS THE ONLY TIME IVE DOUBTED JLB’S JUDGEMENT
or maybe i’m reading too much into it who knows 🤷♀️
Though I prefer her old style more I genuinely don’t really mind her new one. And anyways jlb is making money either way she can do what she wants and I’ll still love her for it
here are the instances I was talking about (spoilers for that night in prague and games untold!)
I love long tig posts they actually make me so happy

“Grayson ripped the drawing he’d made out of the sketchbook, folded it in quarters, and tucked it into his tuxedo jacket.”
he’s definitely going to treasure that drawing forever.

“the grandest game isn’t gonna come out in a while, why are you so excited for it?” BECAUSE?? JENNIFER SAID ITS THE ROMANCE SHES EVER WRITTEN IN A BOOK. SHE SAID THAT THE GAME’S RIDDLES WERE HER FAVOURITE. SHE SAID THAT IT MAY BE ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS SHES EVER. WRITTEN. I DONT CARE IF IT COMES OUT IN A MILLION YEARS. I WILL NOT SHUT UP ABOUT IT UNTIL JULY ROLLS AROUND AND JLB FINALLY FREES OUR SOULS. 🤬
#im actually so excited for it it’s not even funny#LIKE HOW COULD SHE DROP THESE BOMBSHELLS AND THEN MAKE US WAIT TILL SUMMER TO READ THR BOOK 😭😭💔#the grandest game#the brothers hawthorne#grayson hawthorne#phone girl#the inheritance games#jameson hawthorne#nash hawthorne#avery kylie grambs#xander hawthorne#libby grambs#maxine liu

Oh, so if it's a male complex characters they're just misunderstood and mistaken BUT when it's a female complex characters they're just mean and annoying?

I forgot how hard it is to read the part where Xander meets his father and not cry.
Isaiah knew about Xander and he wanted to stay. He tried to get custody. Xander probably wasn't expecting any of that.
