I'm torn about “The Hawthorne Legacy”. On one hand, I adored the Hawthorne brothers - Jameson, Xander, and Grayson - and loved seeing more of their complexities and dynamics. Xander, in particular, stole the show for me!

On the other hand, I struggled with the protagonist, Avery. Her self-obsession and constant need for validation made it hard for me to connect with her. I found myself rolling my eyes more often than not.

Unfortunately, the supporting characters didn't get as much attention or development as they did in the first book, which was disappointing. It felt like they were relegated to the background, and I missed seeing more of their stories and growth.

Overall, it was an okay read, but my love for the Hawthorne brothers kept me invested. I hope the next book gives the supporting cast more love and balances out the character development.
