This book is a victim of great concept, poor execution. The pieces come together, but it's messy and clunky. It felt a little heavy handed in trying to get us to the end.

I mean…. Come on. It’s fine enough but also so boring? And predictable?

Rating: 🙂/3.75
Thoughts: This book is DARK with lots of trigger warnings. It was absolutely propulsive with characters you have strong negative feelings about. Has a Squid Games vibe and you need to suspend reality and just go for the ride.

How far would you be willing to go to win a live-streamed Survivor-like gameshow if ten million dollars were on the line? What if you realized some of your deepest and darkest secrets were potentially being threatened to be exposed? These are the questions five contestants must ask themselves again and again in this twisty suspense novel. The story, which unfolds over the course of several days as well as from enlightening flashbacks for specific characters, keeps you questioning what’s really going on from the very first chapter.  

You know that feeling when you read the first few pages of a book and immediately know it is going to be a book you can’t put down? That’s how I felt about Everyone is Watching. I loved this book from start to finish. The storyline was gripping and the writing made me want to read this book in one sitting. It truly was a “just one more chapter” experience. I actually had to force myself to stop reading a few times so I could gather my thoughts. Usually when I read a thriller/mystery book I will occasionally try and guess what the ending will be, but this book had me coming up with theories left and right and I was so invested in it. While I still had a question or two at the end, I thought the ending was great and there were aspects of it I definitely did not predict. This is a book I will not soon forget and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good thriller that keeps you on your toes!

Thank you to Harlequin Trade Publishing and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an electronic ARC of Everyone is Watching in return for my honest review.
