Chelsea Ichaso can deliver chills, thrills, and goosebumps like it's nobody's business! "They're Watching You" was FIRE!!

They're Watching You is a YA thriller. I just read this author's other book dead girls can't tell secrets. I liked that one better. This one was still a fun thriller, but the twists felt super predictable. There's also your usual love triangle. I do like when characters actually try to get outside help and it was easy to understand the main character's motivation.

This was so fantastic! Thank you so much Source Books for sending an arc of this my way in exchange for an honest review. I have been looking for something that reminded me of the Secret History for the longest time and I finally found it. I ended up finishing this in one sitting and I couldn’t put it down. I can’t wait until 2023 so I can talk about it in more detail! Thank you again!

I loved so many things about They're Watching You. The fast-paced plot, the wild secrets and the detailed puzzles all grabbed my attention and refused to let it go. While I suspected some of the twists, there were a lot of surprises I didn't predict. I especially love that Chelsea Ichaso wrote a YA book with a strong female protagonist and a plot with complexity that isn't always found in the genre.

Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!

This has been one crazy ride of a book! Maren is a student at an elite boarding school. Her best friend Polly all of a sudden leaves claiming she needs a break from school. But Maren doesn’t believe this at all. Maren goes on to investigate what really happened and ends up in a secret society. The society loves their games and Maren is stuck in a fight to figure out where Polly really is. The society also has more power than anyone would expect. Maren is stuck between choosing to save her friend or do whats right.

This book was full of exciting twists and turns. I started it at bedtime and couldn’t put it down. I ended up being half way through by the time I went to bed. I loved the romance elements but I was definitely suspicious at times. Who can you really trust in a secret society where everyone has something to gain?

What I loved:
- Maren and her determination. Everyone needs a friend like that.
- These games! They are absolutely crazy, and at times dangerous. But it kept the book interesting. I caught myself reading chapter after chapter to see what would happen
- The romance! Even though I couldn’t decide which person to trust. I was always on my toes waiting for craziness to happen.
- The pacing was excellent. The book flowed really well. This was such a quick and fun read for me.
- The twists! I did not expect a couple of them

This book was a really fun and fast read that I was able to finish in less than 24 hours. I cannot wait to recommend this to my personal and online book club when it releases. 4 stars out of 5!

I love books about secret societies and this one is clearly are a winner. You will absolutely love the intrigue and mystery in this book. I absolutely loved the setting and the characters as well.
