This book was a great surprise. It was way more entertaining than I thought it was going to be. Avery is the black sheep of the family, her birth causing a scandal that had major effects on her life. She was most recently sent off to boarding school, a military style place so she could be monitored round the clock.

We first meet Avery as she is trying to escape.

I'm a fan of Avery. She's smart and fearless and resourceful. I like how she snuck out and didn't want her grandmother's rule to define her. Riley, her chaperone through the challenges is typical cute and understanding main interest, but that doesn't make it bad. I like how normal Riley is with Avery as the rest of her family is CRAY! He really stood out because he was such a strong sure rock of a character that she could count on.

>And the family. Woah. Think Knives Out style type of family, everyone going crazy for the money money money. It was pretty fun. I sped through reading it in two days and looked forward to seeing what crazy challenges dear old grandma could invent. 

The plot is well paced and the characters a little cardboard, but it didn't bother me. It was more about the challenges and Avery and whom to trust. With a lot hanging in the balance (not only the inheritance but mostly, Avery not having to go back to that school), the danger an urgency was there from the beginning.

Overall, I think <em>Inherit Midnight</em> is a really fun and lively book that a lot of people will enjoy. It has danger and history and crazy characters and just enough romance to satisfy.

I unfortunately was not able to read this book. I was excited when ever I had chosen to download or pick this book up on Netgalley. However, time moves by so quickly and I never got to read it.

Inherit Midnight has been on my TBR since what feels like forever. I have had it on my Kindle for about 5 years at least and I have always been meaning to read it. It sounded like a book that would be totally my thing. A mix of The Amazing Race with a hint of my favorite middle grade book, The Westing Game. All the pieces were there but unfortunately it didn’t live up to what I was expecting. Instead of a solid adventure story that was also a mystery I got something muddled. Everything felt so convent and cliche which completely disappointed me. It was a fast read, there is no doubt about that and I didn’t struggle reading it, but all in all it was kind of dull and nothing like The Amazing Race vibe I was sold on. Definitely not a favorite of mine, but doesn’t mean you might not enjoy it. Honestly I’m just happy to have read it because I was holding on to it for a long time.

Kind of a mix of amazing race and revenge plus some extra special good bits thrown in for good measure.
Actions packed, full of family drama and a rather sweet romance.
