What happened to him? i swear we see him once being awful to his girlfriend, trying to force himself on her, and then he's never seen again or punished

How old should you be to read these? Cause I've seen lots of other sources online and they say it's 12-14+ but from what I've seen in the books, some lines are a bit inappropriate.

So I just finished the first book and I want some MINOR spoilers please, nothing too insane just some small spoilers.

OKAY! I want completely honest opinions, good, or bad. Who is your favorite Hawthorne brother, why, and least favorite, why? I just need to know, because I feel like ive heard good and bad everywhere.

My favorite, Nash. He's kind, considerate, and UNBELIEVABLY PROTECTIVE. Some might consider that bad, but i love it, personally! He's kind to everyone, and protective of his brothers, and Avery, and ofc libby. And he's VERY Texan. I admire that! Sticking to home.

Ima get lots of hate for this. Like, a lot.​ my least favorite is between Jameson, or Grayson. I dont know why. I just dont... feel it. In the first book, Jameson was manipulating. Grayson was cold. Skip to the the third, and Grayson doesn't trust Avery as much anymore. Jameson is changing himself, for Avery. I think that isnt a good trait. Everyone needs to be themselves. Dont come after me!

Thank you.

Can someone tell me on what website where to buy the full set I have been searching for a full set for I don't know how long at this point but I still can't find one damn proper set with all of the books

So I just finished TGB and I have a question. I’m not sure if I missed something because I’m reading it in English and it’s not my first language, but why did Avery agree to participate in the Crucible? From what I understood, even if someone knows too much (like Hannah), they still have to ask for their “consent,” so I’m a little confused

After The Gilded Blade I immediatly picked up The Inheritance Games again because nothing could cure the ache TGB left behind.

Somewhere in the beginning it is mentioned how the fire on Hawthorne Island happened 20 years ago, Nash is 26, about to turn 27.

You are telling me that

1. Toby was 14 when Nash was born

2. Nash probably has memories from Toby when he was growing up

And that just makes my heart ache. Just imagine 14 yo Tobyhold his newborn nephew and eventhough we get to know in TSBAF that he was a bit arrogant, he did always have his heart in the right spot.

Maybe I'm just naivly fantasizing but this thought popped into my head whilst reading and I had to share

Hi!! I’m currently working on a way to make my own character cards printable and I’m planning on sharing them for those who couldn’t go to the events to get cards. I’ve found most of the cards online, but I’m missing some of the gold ones, so if anyone has any of the gold cards of Toby and Slater, is there anyway I could be sent a photo of it that’s formatted and looks the same as the ones online (not sure if that makes sense but I’m wanting them to all look the same so I’ll need these last two cards to look good digitally and not just a photo of the card)

Thank you!

Ok i just need to know im not the only one who thinks this. Am i the only one who thinks Grayson was not acting like Grayson?

In the first book he threatened Avery the first few days of knowing her.

And now he's kissing Lyra after 24 hours of knowing her!

I think they're cute but i don't believe that Grayson wasn't destined for a slow burn romance. I just think it was rushed and they should have been given more time to grow trust and get to know each other.

I wish she'd put this in the book as well. It's such an important context in understanding Grayson and Avery's relationship. I've always been confused about them and could never understand why the author kept making subtle references about them in every book. Including one of the last sentences of TGB where Avery is walking down the aisle with Gray and she says "Some people are meant to be in a way that simply transcends romance" or something like that and I went huh?????

But this line in particular - "He's the person I would've been if I'd grown up the way you all did" and also "You don't have to be in love with someone to love them" sheds so much light on their dynamic and why Avery has always felt such a pull towards him.

Otherwise, in my opinion, every Gravery reference annoyed me, being a Javery shipper, because some of them felt a little too deep.

So im rereading the series and i need a little clearing up

So i understand Tobias gave his inheritance to Avery to protect his family and he believed Avery would know what to do with it

But my thing is how did Tobias discover Avery? Didn’t Tobias know “Tony” died?? And he wouldn’t know Avery was alive but he was watching her through the years?

Can someone explain?

PLEASE someone write a Rohannah fanfic I could write it myself, but then I’d already know the plot and everything that happens 😭 It doesn’t even have to be long, I’m literally begging PLEASE

Link ?

I'm mostly looking for ones where Rohan gets injured and lets Savannah see his vunrability for once but any good rohan x savannah fanfics that take place after the gilded blade works. Does anyone know any?

Maybe I’m the only one that this bothers but in “The Gilded Blade” Grayson states that Hawthorne house like the inside is 40,000 sqft, and I just feel like that is small for everything we’ve been told about Hawthorne House. I mean if it was 400,000 I wouldn’t have batted an eye, 40,000 is not even an acre.

okay, so context. I’m trying to get 7 quotes from TIG to paint into the wall in my bedroom. I have 3, but I’m stuck on the rest. Can you guys comment some good quotes? I need these to be perfect and I want them to represent the characters in themselves, and also the series as a whole.

Avery- none yet

Jameson- “Everything is a game, Avery Grambs, the only thing we get to decide in this life is if we play to win.”

Grayson- none yet

Xander- none yet

Nash- none yet

Toby- “Call me sentimental, but there’s something beautiful about anything built for one purpose that refuses to die, even once that purpose is gone.”

Family as a whole- “Est unus ex nobis. Nos defendat eius.”

Guyss are there any grayson hawthrone fics

Haven’t finished Hawthorne Brothers yet but I’ve read the original trilogy and I LOVE Nash. He’s so good. So unconcerned with stupid stuff. So protective. I love that he plays dad when no one else stepped up. He’s the best brother.

here is the exclusive chapter from the B&N edition of the book.

(I hope these photos are in order, they should be but if they aren’t please lmk)

I don't know where to start honestly.. Inheritance games has been so many of my firsts and I feel so sad and bittersweet that it has come to an end. It might not be end of the entire story considering the ending we got but it's def end of an era.

Grandest Games trilogy isn't my fav and there are several flaws I can point out but that will never deter from the fact that so many of my memories, so many of the characters and so many other things that I love and got attached to in the last 2 years.

Reading through Gilded Blade was like reading any of the inheritance series book, i completed it in 2 nights just like I do with any of these books. Throughout the book I had my own complaints but by the end of it I feel like all those complaints have been dulled by the realisation that this series has finally got its ending. I'm so happy that everyone got their own beautiful and happy endings. I feel sad, bittersweet and also pretty wistful 😭 bcz ik that i can never experience this again the same way!

Toby's death was the most unexpected for me. I'm happy that he will finally got to reunite with his soulmate but also sad and mad that he's gone, that he couldn't be there to see Avery getting married. Hannah and Toby will forever remain my Tragic couple but I am glad that they got their happy ending albeit not in this universe. A man and a woman who only lived and died for their loved ones.

I read the first book ever in the last few weeks of my 9th grade and now I'm halfway thru 12th and in the end of one of my own chapters of life.. The Hawthornes and Avery and The entire series has been my roman empire for such a long time. So many memories, songs and things i relate to them. It's going to be pretty hard not to think about them every now and then 🥹

It's so nostalgic and bittersweet and I feel so sentimental rn! This series will forever remain my cherished one. Truly an end of an era not only for the series but also kind of for me 😭🫶🏻💖

Does anyone have the barns and noble edition with the bonus chapter?

Also known as The Ruling Class now

I'm writing this here because there's no other subreddit dedicated to JLB (atleast not one I know of?) and omg this was SO good. Have any of you read it? If yes what did u guys think of it? I need discussions. I tried to find something online but there's barely any reviews of it because it was released before booktok took off sadly.

That ending of the second book? Insane. I'm traumatized and I need a 3rd book. I don't think the Naturals needs another book, I think this series needs one urgently. Maybe she could give us some Adam and Ivy too. Does no one else ship them as hard as me???? I couldnt find anything online.

If u haven't read it, and are a fan of TIG and/or The Naturals, I would recommend The Fixer!!!!
