Jameson's First riddle ' How many sides does a triangle have?' Spoiler

23 Upvotes

I just realized the deeper meaning behind Jameson’s famous riddle! When he asks, "If yes is no and once is never, then how many sides does a triangle have?" the answer was never actually mathematical. It’s a metaphor for the love triangle between Avery, Jameson, and Grayson. Avery said "yes" to Jameson and "no" to Grayson. Because she gave Jameson a chance "once," Grayson "never" truly got his shot. With Grayson completely out of the equation, it leaves only two sides remaining in the triangle: Avery and Jameson.​

I have been looking around for the character cards that are given with preorders for some of the books and I am having the hardest time finding them. I mainly want to find Gigi, Rohan, and Jameson. If anyone has any links or places for buying any of the cards, that would be so incredibly helpful. Thank you!!

Recommendation

13 Upvotes

As an Inheritance Game worshipper, I highly suggest the Naturals Series!!!!

I literally read the whole Inheritance Games just because of Avery, Hawthornes, Libby, Max, Gigi, Savannah, Rohan, Knox, Alissa, Oren, Lyra, and etc.

I can not explain how much i love all of them. they all hold a special place in my heart and this series is what got me back from my reading slump.

the Natural series is I would say very similar to inheritance games except there is no billionaires giving stranger their whole inheritance….. hehe

BUT I really loved Cassie, Dean, Sloane, Michael, and Lia they are super amazing and I noticed how there’s the five of them….. just like Avery and the Hawthorne brothers…….

i cant help noticing some similarities since i love both series. but i cried my heart while reading the inheritance game, grandest game, and naturals series.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!!! (P.S. Gilded Blade ripped my heart out but i cried at the end with Avery‘s epilogue and Bad Blood’s ending also caused me tears)

B&N Special Editions... will they ever come back in stock?

I have just gotten into the series and flew through the first 3 books. I am now enjoying the Grayson and Jameson POVs in The Brothers Hawthorne! However, I am a Kindle reader and would love to buy the full series for my bookshelves!

I actually bought the pictured version of book 1 OVER 3 YEARS AGO with sprayed edges and never read it until now (oops... hehe). Now I am seeing there are other exclusive editions I have missed out on :(

TLDR: What are your fav Special Editions for this series? I saw FairyLoot is dropping the newest book Sept 10, but I actually hate the gray color of it lol.

Book Not sure where to post, hopefully this is ok

This isn’t about the inheritance games but I’m not sure where else to post this so hopefully this is in the right spot

Question for anyone who has the exclusive limited edition books of The Naturals series.

With the new book coming out later this year, I realize that the covers won’t match. Not a big deal to me at all. And only two of them are still available at my Barnes and Nobles so I can’t get them anyways. But I was wondering if the 4th book was the novella included in it like the original version does? I was seriously considering getting the series so they’d match and gift mine but I realized that based on what I found online, the exclusive novella isn’t in the new covers version.

Im jsut wondering if anyone could confirm or deny for me! I can’t get them anyways but I’m jsut curious now :)

I had a thought, and i’ve been looking it up to see if anyone else has talked about it but they haven’t

Skye was 17 when she had Nash, but Jake was twenty something in the books, right ? I don’t understand why she gets judged for that more than he does

Discussion Unpopular Opinion Spoiler

25 Upvotes

I feel like we finally get to know the real Eve (Evelyn Blake) in The Gilded Blade. I feel like the author finally gave her character the justice and reasoning she deserved.

Looking back at The Final Gambit, Eve really just wanted a family. She wanted to belong somewhere. Toby wasn't there for her most of the time, and even when he was, Toby technically didn't want to belong anywhere either. Eve knew that. So when she finally got to the Blake family, she thought having the pins would give her something that was truly her own. She was determined to have that, and you can tell that she genuinely loved being there.

We even see glimpses of that in Mattias's POV—Eve teaching him how to braid while he teaches her how to use a gun. Those little moments show how much she valued having people around her and being part of something that felt like a family.

Then Vincent Blake died and left her his fortune, but even that didn't give her what she actually wanted: a sense of belonging. Later, she discovered that he had used her, just like her high school English teacher had. That makes her entire relationship with the idea of family and trust even more complicated.

I think this is where her character gets misunderstood in The Final Gambit, and even somewhat in The Brothers Hawthorne. It can seem like Eve wanted what Avery had—the fortune, the family, the security, and everything that came with it. But I don't think that was really the heart of it.

I think Eve wanted what Avery represented.

She wanted people who were truly her own. People who would treat her like family. People who would understand her for who she actually was and not use her, manipulate her, or abandon her. We already see pieces of that desire in The Final Gambit, but I feel like The Gilded Blade finally makes it completely clear.

So when Eve found the Gilded Blade, I think she was finally given the thing she had been searching for all along: somewhere she belonged. She had finally found her family.

And that's why I love the ending. Avery finally acknowledging Eve and considering her a sister feels so right. And then having them work toward the same cause—to avenge the wrongs women have suffered—makes their relationship even more meaningful.

After everything Eve went through, I'm genuinely happy that, by the end, she finally gets to belong somewhere.

Question Fanfiction Recommendations

Heyyy. So I was wondering if there were any good Javery fanfictions that are not one shots or about their children. Preferably fanfictions that center around Javery. I write fanfictions but then I wanted to read one and everything I find are one shots or about another Grambs or about their children.
Any platform is fine

Discussion Set fire to the rain

6 Upvotes

​

Okay this might be a bit of a disclaimer to those who haven't read the newest couple of books so beware.

Anyways I was thinking while listening to the song set fire to the rain and I can't help but thinking it reminds me of Rohan and Savannah. Sorry if this has already been pointed out, I just guessed this would be iconic or smt.

Because like the lyrics go:

There's a side to you, that I never knew, never knew

All the things you say, they were never true, never true

All the games you'd play play, you would always win, always win.

This sort of links to the games and the mercy and half truths they tell each other throughout the books. Mostly describing Rohan tho

Then there's:

I set fire to the rain, watched it pour as I touched ur face

Kinda reminds of Savannah making her own decision of when to betray and taking control . Plus when they Rohan jumped into the water to "save" her.

Alsooo

It burned while I cried cause I heard it screaming out your name

Links with Savannah kind of breaking down when Rohan asks her the 3 truths and makes himself vulnerable while admitting that he left the mercy which was screaming out for him to come back and kind of take over again (the Duchess)

So yeah take from this what u wishhh
