This is the right book for you if...

- you like strong teenaged heroines who just happen to have exactly the right set of skills and interests to solve lots of carefully-placed riddles
- you enjoy discovering very obvious plot devices and how the author employs them to advance the story
- you do not mind a plothole every now and then for the sake of drama
- you are okay with two-dimensional characters with only a hint of nuance
- you enjoy watching teenagers engage in cookie-cutter romance situations
- you don't mind reading a book that is clearly designed to lead up to a sequel because many questions of the first part remain unanswered.

I do not like any of the above, so I did not enjoy this book very much.

That being said, it is definitely a page-turner and made me want to know what happens next. It was especially the super-obvious plot devices (like secret passages and little riddles in every nook and cranny of the mansion) that were not necessary and "The Inheritance Games" would have been just as exciting without them.
The way it is, it feels like an overengineered gadget - okay to use, but just too much of everything.
