But as the clock ticks down to the moment when Avery will become the richest teenager on the planet, trouble arrives in the form of a visitor who needs her help—and whose presence in Hawthorne House could change everything. It soon becomes clear that there is one last puzzle to solve, and Avery and the Hawthorne brothers are drawn into a dangerous game against an unknown and powerful player.

interesting

it was interesting I liked the first book and the second
this was a let down

Loved it

What a great conclusion to this beautifully intricate trilogy. I loved every second. The audio is amazing.

4.5 !!

A good summing up of the original story. I will say out of the three books I liked this one the least. But I still love all things hawthorn and it’s worth the read all the way to the end.

A VERY RISKY GAMBLE … indeed

If you’ve read the previous two books, you’ll know that anagram! This series is one of my all time favorites! Perfect blend of riddles, twists and romance!

Great!

So fun! Highly recommend, high school and up. This review requires fifteen words to submit.

Fun Listen/Read

The whole series was great. I’ve recommended it to many of my students. The ending is very satisfying.

Loved this last one the best!

Super thrilling!!! Outstanding story and writing. Amazing flow and the reader was incredible talented. I would definitely recommend this series!

Great ending

Was really looking forward to this one
It did not disappoint.
Writer even added some aspects missing in my favorite books. Such as animals.
If she wanted to the series could continue.
Great tertiary chatachters, and villians still have unanswered questions.
But I'm happy with the ending as is.

Another success

I’m sad this is over and I want more. I love how honest and smart Avery is and appreciated so much of her perspective throughout the book, and how unapologetic she is about her feelings.

What am I gonna do know?!

Since I don't want to spoil anything, I'll try not to go into specific details so everyone can enjoy and experience the book for themselves.

I was really looking forward to the last book in this trilogy so much.

The Final Gambit is as epic as the first two books. It's binge-worthy, and I had a hard time putting it down when I had to do other things🙈. I really tried to read it slowly and savour every page at first (knowing there won't be another sequel), but who was I kidding?! With this kind of story, it's simply not possible to read slowly.🤷‍♀️I love listening to audiobooks while reading the books. It adds so much to the experience and if I cant read I can still listen.

The puzzles, riddles, and mysteries kept coming, and while I tried to solve the riddles with Avery and the Hawthorne brothers, I also couldn't wait to turn to another page to see what would happen next.

Not all of us can be as extraordinary as them. So why try when they solve it for me, right? The story builds on what we learned from the previous books and expands on that. You get sucked into the story, and the reality around you just ceases to exist. You need to know what comes next, and since the chapters are short, the usual "one more chapter" keeps coming every other minute.😅

We get to know some new characters, uncover layer after layer of the Hawthorne secrets, and get plenty of time with the brothers (yes, they wormed their way into my heart even more than before, and I love them all. Who wouldn't, right? But my all-time favourite Hawthorne will always be Grayson😍)! And Avery is the queen!

The finale was grand! And we came a full circle. The development of the characters and the story as a whole (from The Inheritance Game to The Final Gambit) is sooo good!❤️‍🔥

The interactions between the main characters (and some side characters), and their life together since Avery came to the House shaped them into who they were meant to be, changed them, healed them, and showed them the right path. I think it's perfect. Everything got explained, and we got a very satisfying end.

The only minus is there is no other sequel. What am I gonna do?!😭
