Miss Ackers' Recommended Read - November

This month Humanities and AR teacher, Miss Ackers, has sent in her 'pick'...

Avery Grambs has a plan for a better future: survive high school, win a scholarship, and get out. But her fortunes change in an instant when billionaire Tobias Hawthorne dies and leaves Avery virtually his entire fortune. The catch? Avery has no idea why -- or even who Tobias Hawthorne is.

To receive her inheritance, Avery must move into the sprawling, secret passage-filled Hawthorne House, where every room bears the old man's touch -- and his love of puzzles, riddles, and codes. Caught in a world of wealth and privilege, with danger around every turn, Avery will have to play the game herself just to survive.
 
This book is one of my favourite Young Adult books. The final book of the trilogy has just come out and it’s the next on my to be read list! It’s twisty and leaves you wanting more, there’s always a riddle to be solved and Barnes manages to surprise me every time. A must read!
