Description

Is someone dangerous out to get her? Or is it all in her mind?

Becky’s life is almost perfect. Growing up, she could never have imagined living in such a safe, beautiful home, with a boyfriend as loving and kind as Alex, and hopes for a little family of her own. But then stand-offish Max moves in next door, and things begin to fall apart.

First, someone starts trolling her social media. Then she finds her tyres slashed. By the time she discovers the dead bird, left waiting for her like a prize, she’s sure someone is after her. And having spied some strange goings-on beyond her kitchen window, she suspects that person is Max.

Frightened, Becky turns to Alex for help, but she’s surprised to find that he and Max have become firm friends—and that Alex is convinced it’s all in her mind. But when news of a missing young woman breaks, Becky knows she has to do something. She’s sure she’s seen this woman in Max’s home—hasn’t she?

With Alex concerned that she’s losing her grip on reality, does Becky dare keep digging, knowing her almost-perfect life could shatter into imperfect little pieces?

Good book! Wow! Crazy twisted story! This book had suspense, intrigue, and a few crazy twists! The storyline was very interesting and kept me glued to my kindle! I will definitely recommend reading this book! It was well worth reading! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

Most of this is standard - woman has sense of dread, other people think she's crazy. I feel like I need to start giving "how often is the main character drunk" ratings and this one, thankfully, isn't too high!

The twist wasn't something I could have necessarily guessed. It felt a little out of left field, but it gave the book more coherence, not less. I liked how original it was.

Someone’s watching me follows the story of Becky who seems to have her life figured out. Until a new man moves in next door who puts her on edge, her coworker seems set on ruining her career, and she suddenly has the feeling she’s being watched. Despite Alex telling her she’s crazy, Becky is convinced she’s being harassed and stalked as weird things keep happening to her. Her neighbour constantly seems more and more suspicious when all of a sudden women start to go missing, and Becky is certain he has something to do with it.
I loved this book because of how fast paced it was, it didn’t drag on unnecessarily. Anita and Lucy were amazing. I have mixed feelings about Alex though because of how he treated her adt times and how he made her feel as though she was going mad. But it worked out in the end. Also, i was definitely not expecting that plot twist at the end.

This was a very quick and easy read and I appreciate that the MC wasn’t an alcoholic for once. However, I think I’m getting a little tired of the standard thriller fare where the MC is paranoid and/or not believed by the people who supposedly know and love her best.

This story immediately jumps into the paranoia which unfortunately gives you little time to connect and empathize with the MC. To me, she instantly came off as dramatic and unreliable.

As I was reading I was thinking about how well edited the writing was. Typically it’s a good thing when a story is told as briefly and as succinctly as possible, but in this case I think the story would have benefited from a longer story that gives more insight into the MC’s background. It’s alluded to several times and of course there’s the big reveal, but I don’t think there was enough to truly do it justice or to explain the MC’s instant jump to believing she is being stalked.

I will say that while many thrillers are often predictable, I did not see this particular twist coming. I think I’ve just personally read too many thrillers of late and need them to have some extra wow factor or novel twist to be enjoyable.

Thank you NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for an e-arc in exchange for an honest review.

Someone's Watching Me is a rather typical gaslighting story - men gaslighting a woman.

Becky moves to a neighborhood where she feels safe. She has a wonderful boyfriend named Alex. Life is good. Until Max moves next door.
Weird shenanigans on the internet and at her door (a dead bird!) tie into odd things that are happening at Max's home.
The stranger it gets - and the more danger that Becky fears - lead to the nightmare of not being believed by Alex. When Becky seeks support from him she learns that he is now good friends with Max.
A missing woman - one whom Becky saw in Max's house - becomes the catalyst in which Becky must rapidly solve the nightmare in which she now lives - or end up a victim herself.

The twists surprised me and the male characters infuriated me.

Enjoy!

It did all seem a little predictable, having said that it progressed into a decent story with a twist.

I read Someone's Watching Me in one sitting by Zoe Rosi. I was surprised how quick this book was to read, but it made catching some sun in the garden on a hot Sunday's afternoon all the more pleasant.

The writing style wasn't one I really favoured. I felt we got told too much at times especially with Becky's paranoia and not really shown enough. I won't give spoilers but I feel it would have been better earlier on learning what had happened to Becky as a child rather than all at once later in the book. It would have made the book slightly more relatable. I found I didn't really like any of the characters in this book either and I don't believe it was wrote to be that way. Becky I'm sure was a lovely girl (If based on someone, maybe she's purely fiction and holds no other persons traits), but I found her almost two dimensional. She irritated me no end and that last chapter (The 6 months latter one), I just couldn't get over how she was 'ok' with 'them'. Please do not get me started on Alex either, regardless of his previous 'issue' (I'm calling it that so as not to give a spoiler) at university, I felt he should have been far more accepting of Becky and how she was and what she liked. At times he came off as very suspicious too me and I just didn't like him.

The story is actually extremely fast paced and that's really what kept me reading. The mystery of Becky's past, was she really being stalked, what was up with Max next door and of course was she losing her mind? Those are all the things that kept me reading.

This was a solid 3 star read, but it isn't a book I would say I loved, its was ok.

Thank you to Netgalley for suppling me this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I really, really, really loved this book! The kind of book that sucks you in from the very first page.. I couldn't read it fast enough. It was everything a psychological thriller should be. If you're looking for a fast paced, suspenseful story with a twist you never saw coming, then this is the one for you!

It took me several chapters before I got used to the writing style--I never got to the point I enjoyed it. But there was so much intrigue, mystery, and questions in this story I couldn't not read it. It was full of suspense and I found myself ripping through the pages (while cringing at phrasing and over explanations) dying to find out how it all ended. A good book.

Thank you NetGalley, Amazon Publishing UK and Zoe Rosi for letting me read “Someone’s Watching Me” in exchange for an honest review.

“Is someone dangerous out to get her? Or is it all in her mind?”

Isn’t that what we always try to tell ourselves, that it is all in our head? Maybe we need to listen to that inner voice, that inner warning system. At least that is what Becky should have done. But as this is a psychological thriller, we can be certain that someone is out to get her! But what has sweet, innocent Becky done to make someone so upset with her?

Meet Becky and Alex. We have a beautiful couple living in the suburbs of London. Becky has a gorgeous husband a stable job and a beautiful home. All she is missing is a little one. I like that it is mentioned but not pushed as the main focus of the story.

Her perfect life gets disturbed when a new guy moves into the neighbourhood. She feels uncomfortable in the way he is staring at her for no reason. Then she gets trolled online, tyres get slashed...
The one person she thought she could rely on is not listening to her, Alex.

So, is the new neighbour Max dangerous or is it all in Becky’s head?! What about all the other strange things? Alex does not take her seriously, he even seems to take Max’s side. Alex seemed to perfect, which actually made him seem shady at times.

The writing is solid. I liked the fast pace. Things were happening all the time and the book did not drag on. You get a good insight into who Becky is and what is important to her. Her past could have been brought up a bit sooner, it would have helped the story. It felt squeezed in, at the very end.

I love myself a first person POV.
I read the book in pretty much one sitting. I try to focus on just reading and not forcefully trying to figure things out. It worked, the story swept me away.

So this is all fine. I was about to rate this a solid four stars. BUT… the ending. Are you kidding me? All is well and forgotten? I will change my review after publication, so I am not going to spoil anything. But for reals??? I really liked the book until the epilogue. First you fade the important “battle” out and then you throw that at me? No. I am sorry but I can’t!

Was this review helpful?

This was a good book! The writing and the plot really made me feel like I was in London with Becky. This is a psychological thriller where you don’t know if the main character is going crazy or not. The ending was a bit anticlimactic, I hoping for more was it was tied up very quickly.
I will definitely be looking out for more by this author.

Someone’s watching me by Zoe Rosi is a new gripping psychological thriller with all the elements necessary to make it a hit executed brilliantly.

Becky is living the dream life with her boyfriend of three years, holding down a good job and having moved into the perfect house until the mysterious man named Max moves on next door. Soon Becky starts feeling threatened and like she is being watched all the time.

So what made the book a 5 star read for me was that I couldn’t guess the whole suspense at all until the end. Becky’s troubled past was indeed hinted on for most part of the book yet it was secretive enough to not be able to make any guesses.


Even though Max’s character was suspicious throughout the story, the mystery of why and how kept me engaged until the end. Something that annoyed me was how Alex just stopped listening to Becky altogether, dismissing her off all the time once he hit it off with Max but my understanding is that it was exactly how author had intended to put forth the character.

An eerie and dark read that will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire way through. I really enjoyed every page of this thriller!

Was this review helpful?

Another one of those twisty turny psychological thrillers that has you looking behind you, as you feel you are being watched too!
Becky has it all.
A good job, a wonderful partner, Alex, and a roof over her head.
Perfect on paper.
But with the arrival of a new neighbour, Max, things start to disintigrate, from strange things happening at work, to clashes with her boyfriend, not to mention the fact that someone is definitely watching her.
You sit and read these books, and it's inevitable, isn't it, that you second guess at every page turn, convinced you have it figured out, then something happens to throw you off the scent, again.
I was so invested in the story that I did feel creeped out for a lot of the book.
I felt so sorry for Becky, as events unfolded, and without wanting to give too much away, the guilt she carried for so long was truly unfounded for the age she was when awful things happened.
Alex, her partner? Well, by the end of the story, I would have liked to give him a resounding slap, for his ignorance, and Max, the neighbour. He truly creeped me out.
Whilst I would have maybe liked a little more before the closure at the end, issues were tied up neatly in a satisfying ending.

I read Someone's Watching Me by Zoe Rosi in one day with a few cups of coffee to settle my nerves. Great storyline, tense, and very well written. There are twists and turns as Becky goes about her life believing she is being watched. Is it danger or as her boyfriend Alex believes, Becky's imagination. Becky starts investigating who the 'watcher' is and why is the destruction of her work, life and social media happening. The story is gripping and has a surprising and dramatic ending. A novel well worthy of five stars.

Was this review helpful?

Wow! This was definitely a page turner! I found myself hooked from the beginning of this book, and powered through it in one sitting to figure out the mystery. I found myself feeling like I was going crazy along with our main character as she tried to grapple with who was torturing her and what the deal with her new neighbor was. I will say that as much as I enjoyed this, there were some parts that I found a bit difficult. For one, I really didn't enjoy Alex and Wendy's treatment of Becky. With Alex, I understand that there wasn't much for Becky to go off of when she expressed her concerns with Max, but Alex's complete lack of sympathy when Becky was explaining herself was really frustrating. Same with Wendy. Becky continuously explained how there were issues that were beyond her control that were hindering her work, but Wendy just seemed like it was ALWAYS Becky's fault. Now I will say that the ending had me on the edge of my seat (despite Becky's use of the "culprit's" identifier OVER AND OVER AGAIN...we get it they're {REDACTED}), and I really enjoyed how it played out.

This is definitely a book that I would recommend for anyone interested in jumping into the mystery/thriller pool as a starter because of the twisty turnys.

A fast-paced thriller that will keep you turning the pages. I finished this book in one day, eager to find out what was really going on and whether Becky's suspicions were correct. The pacing was good, never becoming boring or dragging on for too long without any events, and the circumstances Becky found herself in were intriguing.

However, I wasn't a fan of the writing style; it left little to the imagination, making it overly easy for readers to predict how things would end and what was really going on. The character of Elizabeth in particular seemed to have no real place in the story and could easily have been removed without affecting the storyline or Becky's experience.

I raced through this book wondering Becky was being stalked or if she was going a bit mad.

All is well, Becky is living the dream life with her boyfriend of three years, holding down a good job and moved into the perfect house with hopes of starting a family until creepy new neighbour Max moves in next door.

Becky can't understand how Alex seems to be getting on okay with Max and not listening to her complaints about him.
The story is very fast paced
I enjoyed it and will look for other books by Zoe Rosi to read again.

Thank you Netgalley and Amazon Publishing UK for the copy of Someone’s Watching Me. This would be a good book for someone looking for an easy read because this book was simply written. Becky was pretty clueless when things started happening to her and failed to take the most basic precautions for her own safety. I think I have had enough of supposedly happy couples who don’t communicate with each other, and spend so much effort to hide their past and/or their feelings. It certainly doesn't make them likable or sympathetic characters in a book. I would have liked to read more about Becky’s childhood and family life.
I was disappointed that the reveal had no build up at all so it felt like the ending and the ‘epilogue’ were just tacked on. This wasn’t a bad book, it just wasn’t really for me.

Was this review helpful?

Someone's Watching Me was full of mystery. The overall storyline was enticing as we find Becky's life falling apart after Max moves in next door. Afraid Max is the one scaring her, Becky turns to her boyfriend for help only to find he's become close friends with Max.

There are enough twists and turns in this book to keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end!

I really enjoyed this book. The main character was well developed and likeable (although I’m not sure I’m a fan of her partner, I feel he could have been a little more supportive), and there were several little twists that I didn’t expect.

The book kept me wondering who was being malevolent towards Beckie, with a few character being suspects initially

I wonder if Anita ever got her beautiful blanket!

This book was a great quick read. The writing style was easy to follow, but it did, at times, seem to literally spell everything out. There wasn’t a chance to really let your imagination run wild.
If you want something fast paced and easy to follow this is for you.
This isn’t to say I didn’t enjoy it, as I did.
Becky was a hard character to connect with but the plot was a solid one and very well executed.
Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for my arc.

2.5 rounded up
Becky is very unsettled by the arrival of their new neighbours. Why does she feel as if the much enjoyed peace of the quiet London suburb is shattered? Is she just feeling edgy or is this a premonition? Her day goes from bad to worse, she’s full of foreboding and then in the evening she witnesses something very unsettling from next door. Is she paranoid or is the next door neighbour, Max, dangerous? Her partner Alex doesn’t think so. Becky narrates the tale.

I think I’m going to be an outlier on this one! Although the pace is quite quick and it’s definitely an easy read, Becky soon gets on my nerves with the constant going round and round in circles. She also does some very swift U-turns in thought processes which given the unfolding events make little sense to me. As for her partner Alex, he ain’t worth your time love!

I’m not keen on the style it’s written in, it lacks excitement, Becky tells us she’s full of foreboding but I don’t feel it through the writing. There’s not a lot of unnecessary over explanation, yes, got it! Some statements Becky makes are real eye rollers they are so off the wall but I guess they illustrate Becky‘s addled state of mind.

My biggest issue is with the ending. There’s a ton of buildup and then slates are wiped completely clean. It just feels so completely unrealistic and I feel cheated.

Overall this isn’t for me but be sure to check other reviews as there are a lot of 5* ones so I accept that I am probably out of step with this book.

With thanks to NetGalley and especially to Amazon Publishing U.K. for the much appreciated arc in return for an honest review.

I really couldn't put this down! Fantastic story, interesting, mainly likable characters. Even the eventually revealed villain engages some sympathy. The hints, cleverly placed, that there is so much more behind, keep you hooked, seeking answers. We are our own enemies, or are we? Having followed every suspense event and happening, achieving the answers only raises more questions about who we are, why do we do the things we do, to ourselves and others? We all have a side of us we don't like, or at least are not happy or comfortable with. Let's hope ours doesn't jump up and bite! Highly recommend this intriguing and genuinely tense tale.

Becky leads a happy life with a wonderful boyfriend, a lovely home, and a job she enjoys. Then a new neighbour, Max, moves in next door and things start to go wrong. She gets trolled on her social media, her tyres get slashed, and then even more thing happen. Could it be connected to her new neighbour? When her boyfriend Alex starts to get friendly with Max, she knows she must find out what's going on before it's too late. Could it be in her head, or is someone really out to get her?

A brilliant thriller that keeps you turning the pages until the shocking ending. Tense, exciting, and keeps you guessing. Loved it!

This book was a meh for me. Interesting concept and laying out of suspects but the main character irritated me. Ask for help, let me people know what is happening for goodness sake. Things she found or ignored just seemed to fall into place too smoothly.

I enjoyed reading this story of Becky, who has built the life for herself that she has always wanted. A kind secure partner and living in an area that she feels safe and secure in...... Until a new neighbour moves next door and she finds herself constantly watched wherever she goes. Things start going wrong for her at work and her life seems to be spiralling out of control.. Secrets from her past are catching up with her.
I liked the characters but did find some of the storyline frustrating when she was too paranoid to tell those closest what was going on. Some of the story was 'thriller cliche' but overall a good read.

Was this review helpful?

This had potential but I found myself becoming bored half way through. It felt a bit repetitive and would have been better if Becky had pieced together clues earlier instead of having one reveal at the end.

Some things I didn’t buy. She googled max sidwell for hours, yet there’s later a news article that comes up with the name and Robbie - yet conveniently Becky didn’t see that first time round. I think most people would have called the police several times too. I didn’t like the ending- it was too much to believe she’d be ok with his behaviour.

Was this review helpful?

The story starts with Becky, who seems to be having a perfect life with a perfect boyfriend Alex. But a stand offish man named Max move into the the next door house and soon, someone is coming after Becky--from ruining the estate open day to leaving a dead crow at the front of her car. Becky is convinced that someone is out getting revenge on her and she suspected Max, who has become friends with Alex. Alex doesn't believe her and Becky would do anything to find out who is out about to ruin her life.

The plot wasn't really original but the writing was great. There were some twists and turns along the way and Becky to the reader could be an unreliable narrator. However, even though the plot wasn't original, I like the pace of the story--it was fast paced and the author did a magnificent job of drawing the reader into the story so to make the reader feel like they are part of the story. The ending was unexpected and completely shocking, though I suspected that person could be the one who is hell bent on ruining Becky's life. Overall, this was a good gripping psychological thriller, quite unputdownable that will keep you at the edge of the seat. Worth four stars!

Many thanks to Netgalley and Amazon publishing UK for the ARC. The review is based on my honest opinion only.

First someone starts trolling her social media, then her tyres are slashed. A new neighbour moves next door is very stand offish and the final straw is a dead bird left displayed on her doorstep. Becky's perfect life is falling apart and she is sure someone is watching her. What do they want? Who is doing this and more importantly why??? Her partner Alex thinks that she is losing her grip on reality. A really twisted story which I devoured in one sitting. The plot has been done several times before and this is one of the better versions. All in all a good read.

I absolutely loved this! It's very "you" the TV series! It's not the most original plot pine, being stalked hy a weirdo but this puts a really unique spin on it to to mix it up a bit and keep it fresh. I flew through it in a day and couldn't out it down. I'd definitely recommend

Thank You NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for giving me the opportunity to read and review Someone's Waching Me by Zoe Rosi.

I enjoyed it and even if I felt it was a little slow here and there it is an overall a great thriller.
Perfect when you want something psychological and twisted which Someone's Watching Me sure thing gives the reader.

Becky seems to have the perfect life, a good job, loving boyfriend and beautiful house. Everything is going splendidly, that is until the new next door neighbor moves in. From the beginning, Zoe gets a bad feeling from him. He says he works in the city, but why is he always there? Who are these mysterious women coming and going at odd hours? Her boyfriend and people around her think she is going crazy, while all of these strange and unexplainable things start happening, leaving her looking incompetent and a little crazy. Becky can't prove anything, but knows these things won't stop until she gets to the bottom of things.

A solid thriller that I thoroughly enjoyed! I finished this book in one sitting, easily getting caught up in the thriller aspect.

I was really interested in the premise for this but unfortunately, it fell a bit flat for me. It was very fast-paced and easy to read but I did not get on with the protagonist and narrator Becky, finding her annoying at times. We were constantly told that she was in fear of something, something was making her feel a sense of foreboding, but was told rather than shown.

Was this review helpful?

This one was intriguing, a little slow in parts but I still enjoyed reading it.
Becky feels like someone is watching her and gets creepy vibes from the new neighbor. Her partner Alex thinks she’s imagining things.
The suspense keeps building while you try to figure out who is watching and why? She also keeps talking about her secret childhood which adds to the mystery. This is my first book by this author but I will check out more.
Many thanks to Netgalley for the opportunity to read and review this one.

This is a super fast-paced thriller! Becky and Alex appear to be living a wonderful life when things start going wrong for Becky. Is she being stalked? Is she causing all of the strange things to happen? This was an exciting read!

Was this review helpful?

I feel like the more thrillers I read, the harder it becomes for a thriller to really wow me, and unfortunately this one didnt quite hit the mark.

This book is narrated by Becky who has the perfect life; a nice house in the London suburbs, a gorgeous husband, Alex, and a good, well paid job. However when her new neighbour Max enters her life, things start to go wrong. Becky becomes suspicious of Max, but her husband Alex doesn’t understand what all the fuss is about. No one believes Becky that Max is the cause of all her problems and instead, it’s as if people become suspicious of her and her motives...

Ok, so this was a page turner, it kept me on my toes and Zoe Rosi did a good job of creating tension. But, unfortunately it was nothing new, the twist didn’t shock me, I wasn’t shouting WTAF as I turned the page, and when the twist did come, I was confused instead of feeling completely betrayed because everything I thought I knew was wrong.

I think the build up and backstory needed more development so the twist landed better. But, I enjoyed the journey, even if the destination didn’t quite live up to expectations.

Overall, whilst it wasn’t a complete knockout, it was a good, easy and enjoyable story which didn’t take up too much brain power and would be the perfect palette cleanser after an intense read.

Thank you to Zoe Rosi, Amazon Publishing and Net Galley for the ARC.

Suspense, intrigue, gaslighting, all the makings of a great thriller. This book hooks you in and doesn't let you go until the last twist is over

Was this review helpful?

This was a quick read with good action, though the characters mostly annoyed me. The story is told from Becky’s POV- she is living the good life in London in her dream house with her perfect boyfriend when a new neighbor named Max moves in next door. Max seems threatening but only Becky feels that way, and her boyfriend has befriended Max and is frustrated with Becky, even as more concerning things start to happen.

I didn’t have a lot of patience for Becky- a lot of the book was her internal narrative and I think she overreacted to some things while underreacting to others. I really didn’t like Alex, who made no effort to hear her out when she raised her concerns. I also found it odd that she had kept so much if her childhood from her boyfriend and their allegedly “perfect” relationship. That all being said, there was some good action in the book and some of the things that happened were pretty creepy. I didn’t love the end of the story- things were tied up just a little too cleanly to seem realistic to me.

Overall, decent read with some good action even though I didn’t really connect with the characters or the ending. Thanks to Netgalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Being stalked is terrible, having one person follow all you do and try to infiltrate every aspect of your life….am guessing we are all familiar with this re previous books…however what happens when there could be more than one person stalking/out to get you for different reasons?and at the same time?
Becky wonders if she is going mad, is she being followed, set up, seeing things or just ‘in a state’, almost every day something new happens and everyone seems to be ‘after her’ be it work, home, neighbours or just random people in the street…..is this all a coincidence or are things much more sinister at play?
And for me that was the beauty of this book, I didn’t know and will be honest couldn’t work out if it was real or not, that was down to the good storylines and writing, when all things were revealed at the end it was, a surprise!
You could feel Becky unravelling and not knowing what to do next and I really felt for her and liked her as a character, maybe she made a couple of silly decisions, who doesn’t but all in all she was a character I sided with…unlike some of the other people you will meet in the book, will leave them for you to find out about…
A really good, makes u think psychological thriller that does far more than you will expect

The Perfect Life..?
Becky’s life seems just perfect. But, is it? She really used to think it was but things are about to take a downward spiral when Becky becomes absolutely convinced that someone, somewhere is out to get her. Is she being stalked? Is she in danger? Or is it all a figment of her imagination and an episode of intense paranoia.
Pacy, edgy psychological suspense with a well crafted cast, twists aplenty and an immersive storyline.

Was this review helpful?

Compulsively readable, it kept me turning the pages. But as an avid thriller reader, the novel didn't offer many surprises. The plot points were expected, without any subversions or twists; and character behaviours outside the protagonist were unbelievable. It was a quick, easy read, but not a knockout.
Many thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this one.

SOMEONE'S WATCHING ME

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Man, I don't know.

This book was so much fun and anxiety inducing and anger inducing, it was lucky I was waiting for over an hour and needed something to read; otherwise I might have stopped reading the first time my heartrate increased.

Nothing truly sinister happens until, maybe the last third of the book. But the author brilliantly weav mundane everyday events with an unsettling atmosphere.

It had tropes I don't like, but I'm resigned to that happening at this point; and the reveal at the end was pretty gnarly, I felt secondhand trauma for a fictional character - seriously, I just wanted to jump in there and hug one of the characters - but I raced through it to the end.

The epilogue was really nice and tied things up nicely - there was one thread I was expecting to play more of a part - and if there is ever a sequel, I'd love to see what else happens to these characters.

Was this review helpful?

I devoured this book. I couldn’t put it down even though Becky annoyed me. I had to know how it ended and if someone was truly after Becky or if it was all in her head. This was a gripping thriller and shows how past trauma can affect your every day life.

Becky and Alex have the perfect life but now someone is gaslighting her. Is it Max, their new neighbor? Becky's past come back to haunt her in this thriller that feels very predictable (I almost put it down) until the twist that changes things up. Thanks to netgalley for the ARC. A good read.

Was this review helpful?

This was an interesting and quick read.

Becky and Alex are living a quiet, happy life in suburbia, with Becky working as an estate agent and Alex a personal trainer. Things are going swimmingly until a new neighbor moves in. He says his name is Max and he’s always staring and blaring loud music. Alex doesn’t see the big deal but Becky does.

Suddenly, you know the old saying, what can go wrong will go wrong for Becky. Her tires are slashed and work is going downhill from various bits of bad luck. Becky suspects Max but Alex and everyone else think she’s losing it.

Becky has a reason for protecting this life she’s built so fiercely. She didn’t grow up with the love and privilege that most kids do. She was in foster care since age 5 and pretends her memories start there but she remembers everything.. is someone from her past coming back to haunt her?

I enjoyed this and it was an easy read but I do kinda hate the “no one believes her, she’s suddenly CRAZY!” trope. I know it’s necessary in books sometimes but it always stresses me out. I’m sure that’s the point. It had an interesting if not very believable twist and an even more bizarre ending. I did stay consistently interested the whole time.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read and review!

Was this review helpful?

My first impression was how paranoid and stressful the MC is, I'm sorry but it was just too much at the beginning. And also really judgemental. Other thing it bothered me a lot about her was the way she seems to be too thankful for her boyfriend, and that for me is super annoying; how she is like he doesn't like me reading this so I hide reading it and I don't buy more 😮‍💨 wtf?! And I won't tell him this because it will upset him. I don't like when any gender is "too grateful" for having someone 😬 too cringe 😬 Imagine not being able to watch whatever you want unless you're alone in fear of being criticized eww. But hey the MC is also a true crime fan and I loved that haha even if her "adorable" boyfriend who is a piece of sh... doesn't like her watching/reading it hahahaa. And I don't like that this behavior is presented like a normal thing in "the perfect boyfriend"!!!! That's not okay.

TW!!!!! If you hate gaslight as much as I do. Stay away from this book. This is a huge example of gaslighting and damn.

Now, the plot was good and super intriguing but I kind of guessed it not fully, but when a character starts to drop clues here and there it's easy to know where everything's going. I'd appreciate that twist not to be so obvious, and the entire plot to be a bit more believable but the book is well written I enjoyed it and I was intrigued until the twist happened. The author tried to mix some stories to make the reader doubt and I feel I have read too many thrillers to fall for that so easily, but it was still good thw entire idea of doubting. The end wasn't for me but I'll admit that if you like light thrillers with drama in them then this one will totally be for you. I know many who avoid thrillers with blood, explicit murders, sex and other kinds of explicit violence and this one doesn't have any of that so it will be great for those who want a light intriguing thriller with a plot that is easy to read and feel involved.

Thank you Amazon Publishing UK and the author for the copy of the book !!!!

Becky’s life is better than she could have imagined. She’s living in a beautiful home with her loving boyfriend, Alex, and she has a good career. Until one day Max moves in next door, and Becky’s idyllic life begins to fall apart. Slashed tires, bad reviews at work, and news of missing women send Becky into a tailspin, but when she turns to Alex with her suspicions about Max, he doesn’t believe her. Has Becky lost her grip on reality, or is Max someone to be feared?

This is a fast paced, easy read. I feel like the author didn’t really build up intrigue about Becky’s past. It was mentioned once or twice and then kind of thrown at you during the reveal. And then the reveal/ending was just okay.

Awesome 5 ⭐
Becky’s life is almost perfect. Growing up, she could never have imagined living in such a safe, beautiful home, with a boyfriend as loving and kind as Alex, and hopes for a little family of her own. But then stand-offish Max moves in next door, and things begin to fall apart. First, someone starts trolling her social media. Then she finds her tyres slashed. By the time she discovers the dead bird, left waiting for her like a prize, she’s sure someone is after her. And having spied some strange goings-on beyond her kitchen window, she suspects that person is Max. Frightened, Becky turns to Alex for help, but she’s surprised to find that he and Max have become firm friends—and that Alex is convinced it’s all in her mind. But when news of a missing young woman breaks, Becky knows she has to do something. She’s sure she’s seen this woman in Max’s home—hasn’t she? With Alex concerned that she’s losing her grip on reality, does Becky dare keep digging, knowing her almost-perfect life could shatter into imperfect little pieces?

The story starts of strong and near enough maintains it until around the last 30%. The middle does drag on a little bit though. The pace is fast, but I wasn't keen on the authors writing style. The plotline is quite predictable, but it was still enjoyable. I didn't really like or care for any of the characters. Maybe if we had learned what had happened to Becky as a child earlier on in the story, things might have been different. The story is told from Becky's point of view. The epilogue tied everything up nicely.

What makes this book different for me is that the main character was right the whole time! When everything was revealed at the end was satisfying, but still shocking. Definitely recommend reading this as it’s different from other thrillers I’ve read.

Overall, this was a good suspenseful story. It took me a while to get into. A lot of Becky’s backstory wasn’t revealed until the very end which I think would’ve grabbed my attention early on. It was hinted at a little in the middle!

This thriller managed to keep me guessing right until the end. It was full of plots and many twists that made me keep changing my mind. It was written with enough description to feel it could have been about someone I knew which kept it more intriguing for me. It was a fast paced read that never let me down. Worth reading.

Becky is living in her perfect house with her perfect boyfriend and loves her job…until her new neighbor, Max, moves in. Then it seems like everything starts going wrong for her, and she can’t seem to figure out why. She feels threatened by the next door neighbor, but she can’t convince her boyfriend that something sinister is going on.

This was an quick easy read, which I always appreciate with thrillers. I found the main character slightly annoying though. The story is told from her POV, but it just felt redundant at certain points. She just wasn’t an enjoyable character for me, but maybe she would’ve been more understandable if we learned about her “secret” earlier in the book. She just seemed to lack depth to me, so it came off as just a lot of her complaining/whining.

Overall the story wasn’t bad, but the ending almost seems too easy. We are supposed to believe that everything is just forgiven and things are going right back to normal? I would say this could’ve been a 4 star book for me, but the ending was what made me drop my review to a 3.

A first read by this author and a classic stalker psychological thriller. Quite fast paced with the story told from Becky’s POV. I didn’t find the characters particularly likeable although I obviously felt sorry for Becky, even though I wasn’t sure what was true and if she was imagining some of it.

Briefly, Becky is thirty, working in an estate agency and happily living with Alex. When Max moves in next door Becky thinks he is staring at her through her window. Then strange things start happening with houses she is responsible for selling. All the time she feels she is being watched. Things go downhill fast with her relationship with Alex, with her work and she is having major issues with her neighbour. Her life is unraveling.

Being stalked must be a terrible thing, particularly when you can’t prove it and everyone around you thinks you are going mad. The tension was well built and the plot-line was good. Quite a quick, easy and enjoyable read with a good twist at the end that I hadn’t guessed.

Oh my I could not put this book down. I certainly wasn't expecting the ending of the book which makes a change. Becky and Alex are meant to be together and lived a lovely life until new neighbour Max moves in. He unnerves Becky but to Alex he there couldn't be a more lovelier guy. Max has two sides, one for Becky and one for Alex. Why does she get the feeling that there is something familiar about him.
This book is brilliant and really enjoyed reading it.

Was this review helpful?

Someone's Watching Me by Zoe Rosi is a gripping, mind-numbing and bone-chilling psychological thriller.

As the troubles began, it was quite clear to see that someone had it real bad for Becky. Stalking is terrible but to interfere in the victim's everyday life, play double games and ruin their life, that's downright creepy and horrible. I felt bad for Becky - the poor thing had things working out for her until someone started watching her every move. Her job is almost on the line, her relationship with Alex is in choppy waters - no thanks to Max, and someone is stalking her.

I absolutely loved the storytelling. I was hooked on to the story and could not put it down until the end. The characters are well-portrayed. I liked Max's role more than Becky - his identity was well-hidden until the end. We have an unexpected twist at the end. I never saw it coming.

If you are looking for an intense and completely engrossing psychological thriller, I highly recommend you to give Someone's Watching Me by Zoe Rosi a try.

This isn't the first time I've read anything by Zoe, I read a book by her a couple of years ago which I loved and this was no exception.

I flew through this book in 24 hours. Her writing is easy to read, keeps you interested and gripped and is completely relatable.

I didn't guess who the stalker was, I was way off but it was a brilliant twist. Without doubt bump this book up your TBR.

I was drawn to this book by both the book title and the cover. As soon as I has finished the first chapter I just knew that this was one read I was going to really enjoy. Someone’s Watching Me is a fast paced suspense thriller which kept me enthralled the whole way through. There was honestly times that the story had me on the edge of my seat with the suspense and wonder of what was going to happen next. This is one of my favourite genres and I’m so pleased I now have a new author to watch out for. A brilliant read filled with suspense.

Was this review helpful?

I'm not sure how I feel about this book. I mean, I enjoyed it and it was very definitely a quick read but...I felt it was lacking something. What that was, I don't know. It just felt that something was missing to give it that extra oomph. But I was still engaged throughout. In fact, I almost read it in one sitting, finishing the last half hour of it this morning before I got up and my day got hectic.

Becky lives a happy, safe and secure life on a beautiful quiet street in South London with boyfriend Alex. She works as an estate agent, he is a personal trainer and she loves the life they share together. They are even trying for a baby which will just complete the now perfect life she has. But Becky's life now is a far cry from the one she came from; the one she tells no one about, not even Alex. Everyone thinks she can't remember her early life before she went into foster care and she has let them believe that, but she remembers clearly. No one knows what she saw. Not even Alex. But it still haunts her almost three decades later.

Maybe that's what makes her so jumpy when new neighbour Max moves in next door. From the first moment, Becky has had an inkling that there is something not quite right about Max when she found him standing outside just staring at her. He wouldn't take his eyes off her. There was something dark almost sinister in his stare. But why? What does he hope to achieve? She tells Alex about her concerns but he just laughs them off. Especially when in the coming days he actually befriends their new neighbour and finds him quite a personable guy. Max has even booked some training sessions with Alex. But Still Becky is on edge. Every time she looks towards the house next door, Max is just staring at her. It's chilling.

She tries to brush it off by focusing on her work and is ecstatic when she gets a viewing for a £3m mansion, thinking the commission will come in handy. But the prospective buyer never shows up and then she finds locked out of the property. What is even more puzzling is the bad review the no-show left about her, leaving the company in a bad light. And when she does get to show the house again, the woman is cagey and doesn't look like she could afford to buy a two up two down terrace let alone a £3m mansion! Then an open house she has booked for the weekend goes from bad to worse when she's running late because someone slashed her tyres and a pile of stinking rubbish is left sprawled over the back yard, turning away everyone who turned up to view the house. Who would do this to her?

Beginning with some vicious trolling on social media and the loud heavy metal music from next door, moving on to slashed tyres to stinking rubbish to a disemboweled crow left on her car and the innate feeling that someone is watching her, Becky is sure someone has it in for her. But who? And why? Becky believes their new neighbour may have something to do with it but Alex laughs off her concerns which quickly escalate into arguments about what he deems as an unhealthy obsession in Max. Adam thinks it's all in her mind but Becky knows someone is toying with her and there is just something about Max that gives her the creeps. And when women start to go missing, she is certain that Max has something to do with it.

And all too soon, Becky's perfect life begins to fall apart... Is someone out to get her or is she really losing her mind?

Honestly, SOMEONE'S WATCHING ME is a good solid quick read that is fairly fast paced and is interesting enough to keep you engaged throughout but it lacked excitement and that edge-of-your-seat thrill-of-the-chase feeling. I was unsure what was missing but I think maybe that was it. But it is still a good quick read to while away a few hours. Really, I completed it in just over 4 hours tops.

There are just a handful of characters and no one is really all that likeable, except maybe Anita and Lucy, and of course Becky. But even she seemed an unreliable narrator at times that the reader sometimes questions her logic...but then we don't know what we soon discover about her past. Ryan was a complete moron but it was Alex who was the biggest shock. He and Becky are supposed to have this committed loving relationship and I found that difficult to marry up with his attitude towards her when she tried voicing her concerns. Instead of trying to allay her fears and talking with her, he accuses her of being obsessive and unreasonable and then walks out on her refusing to answer any of her texts or calls. Some loving boyfriend!

It most definitely is a psychological thriller that makes you question the reliability of its narrator and whether everything is as it seems. The plot wasn't entirely original, but that's OK, though it has been done better. The twist was a little predictable but would have been even more so had we learnt about Becky's past sooner so I think that revelation came at just the right time or it would have spoilt the twist. The ending, though, was a little underwhelming but still poignant. However, it was still entertaining with enough suspense to keep you turning the pages to the end.

Someone's Watching Me is a twisty, fast paced psychological thriller, full of suspense and unease.

The story is told from main protagonist Becky's POV as her perfect life slowly begins to fall apart and she thinks she's being followed. Is it new neighbour Max or is it all in her head?

An exciting, easy read with a twist in the tail that I wasn't expecting.

It's the first novel I've read by Rosi and I'll definitely be checking out her other publications.

BOOK TOUR REVIEW ✰✰✰✰+ Creepy Halloween read!
This is a fast-paced and intense psychological thriller. It is a quick read that had no problem keeping me gripped! I love shorter books.

The main characters—Becky, Alex, and Max—are all well-described and interesting characters. They are not all likable, but they make for interesting reading.

Becky is living a happy life with Alex when odd and appalling things begin to happen to her. She begins to obsess over their new neighbor, Max and believes he’s not only behind the nasty events but he’s dangerous. Then there are a few coworkers that are acting strange so she’s not sure who she can trust.

Becky has some rotten luck that causes work and personal issues. It was becoming hard to read about all of her problems, especially the ones that seemed self-inflicted. But I felt sorry for this woman and the mental anguish she was going through!

Thanks to Rachel’s Random Resources for the book tour invite… a great read! And Zoe Rossi and the publisher for providing the gifted book through NetGalley.

This book is everything a great physcological thriller should be. It had me gripped in it's clutches from the start. I wasn't sure if Becky was just paranoid or if someone really was messing with her. It kept me turning the pages because I had no idea who the perpetrator was or what would happen next and I was awestruck by the ending. I love a book where I can't predict the ending and this book I certainly couldn't predict the ending let alone what would happen on the next page. A great story with lots of unpredictable twists and turns.

I absolutely flew through this! It was such an easy read and it kept me interested all the way through. While we get a good understand of how scared and vulnerable Becky feels, she also keeps a lot of cards close to her chest and I was intrigued to learn about her past and discover if the version of herself she presents to the reader is true.

It was hard not to like Becky. Or at least empathise with the situation she is in. So many women are told they are “crazy” or “losing grip” when they express perfectly valid concerns that I’m sure Becky’s story will hit a nerve with many.

Although I enjoyed Someone’s Watching Me, I do feel somewhat disappointed with the ending, particularly the epilogue. While the conclusion itself wasn’t predictable, I feel a lot was said or happened that didn’t really fit with some of the characters or Becky’s account of her past. I really didn’t understand some of the choices she made at the end.

Someone's Watching Me by Zoe Rosi was a really good and a quick read with lots of twists and turns throughout.
Becky’s life is almost perfect. She has a beautiful hime, who she shares with her loving and kind boyfriend Alex. They both dream of having a family together. Then, Max, moves in next door. Things start to fall apart.
Social Media can be a wonderful thing But, when someone starts to troll you, things become scary for people involved. Becky's tyres are slashed. Then she finds a dead bird waiting for her like a prize. Becky has a weird feeling and is sure someone is watching her. But why? Why her?

This all started when Max moved in next door! But he seems harmless.

I really enjoyed this book. But, don't start to read it when you are alone in the house or on holiday!! You never know Someone may be watching you!

WOW!! Zoe Rosi sure knows how to freak out this girl in Someone’s Watching Me!! BOY OH BOY!! This book gives you all the feels and not in that pull on your heart strings kind of way! Oh there are characters in this book that not only freaked the main character out but me as well too!

Becky and I both shared a common interest and that is our love for all things true crime! Yes, like Becky I love all tv shows, movies and books centered around true crime! I could definitely tell why Alex thought it was an unhealthy obsession.

OMG Ryan freaked me out way more than Max did in this book and I didn’t care for either of them. Ryan seemed a little on the obsessive side to me and came off way too strong!! Max on the other hand there was just something way off about him that you couldn’t pinpoint why!

It seemed as if there was a theme in this book as Becky couldn’t seem to catch a break! So many unfortunate events kept happening for her to succeed. However, with each occurrence none of them seemed to be her fault.

Someone’s Watching Me definitely kept me on my toes as it was very fast paced and was insanely suspenseful! It is definitely a book you will want to add to your TBR pile!

Okay, so this cannot be the end, I need to know what happens in the characters lives next!! And ‘Max’ needs a prequel so we can see what happened after the events and his life growing up.

This is such a fantastic book, very fast paced and keeps you guessing with what is going on!

Add to your TBR!! I now need to read the authors other book.

I was fortunate to receive a space on the blog tour from Boldwood Books for this book.

Wow this is a real page turner! Who is the new neighbour? Is Becky going mad, or is there really something going on? A safe home is really important to Becky, and the hidden reasons for this are gradually revealed, and that is seemingly threatened by the arrival of Max in the area. Strange things happen to her at work as well and soon it's like nowhere is safe.

I'll definitely be looking out for this author's work in future!

My favourite quote:
"It's probably easier to remain aloof at work, but I can't help feeling that such coldness is a bit sad, and kind of a waste of life."

This is the first book that I have read, but I loved the cover and liked the sound of the synopsis. I always look for a gritty thriller to get my teeth into.

I Found Someone's Watching Me to be well-written, like many other reviews, it was a slow burner, but worth reading, although there are still plenty of twists and turns to keep you wanting to read more.

I recommend Someone's Watching Me and I will also keep a lookout for more books by Zoe Rosi.

I would like to thank Rachel's Random Resources and Netgalley for the opportunity.

Today is my spot on the blog tour for Someone’s Watching Me, a psychological thriller about Becky, a woman whose perfect life starts unravelling after Max moves in next door.

What a fab read! This book is choc-full of suspense; is her new neighbour a stalker? Is her co-worker just an entitled prick or something more sinister? Is her perfect boyfriend everything he seems? There’s so many potential suspects for the bad luck that suddenly seems to haunt Becky - including her own mind when she’s forced to face the fact that not everything is happening the way she thinks.

The main thing that stopped this being a five star read for me was the lack of depth to the characters. As much as I was rooting for Becky to get to the bottom of what was happening to her I felt like she was a bit of a one-dimensional character that could have been fleshed out a bit more. Same for Alex (the boyfriend); almost every interaction with him saw him saying ‘I’m off to see a client at the gym’. I’m all for loving your job, but there was nothing else to him, nothing to make him relatable.

And the ending…if I’m honest I was disappointed. I can’t say why without giving away MAJOR spoilers, but the final chapter was definitely the weakest part of the book.

Having said that I’d still absolutely recommend this for anyone who enjoys a good psychological thriller. I couldn’t pinpoint how it was going to play out, exactly how I like my thrillers to be! I’ll be keeping an eye out for more by this author 🫶

Yesterday, was my spot on Rachel’s Random Resources blog tour for Zoe Rossi’s Someone’s Watching Me. I read this thriller as an ebook for this tour and I’m so happy that I took part on this blog tour as I really loved this thrilling novel. I’m a huge fan of reading thrillers and psychological thrillers. In fact, these are my favourite genre of novels, and I’m so glad to have discovered a new author for me whose writing style I like. This was the first novel that I’ve read by Zoe Rossi but I’m sure to read more in the future as I really liked this tense and suspenseful thriller.
Once I started reading this novel I didn’t want to put it down. It had me hooked from page one. I didn’t expect at all of what happened in this novel; it had so many plot twists and ‘who has done it’ elements to it. It was dark, exciting and thrilling as well as fast-paced and action-packed.
I recommend it to all readers who like this genre, and I’d give it 6 stars if I could. I’m giving this novel 5 stars as it kept me guessing from page one, and I loved it.

Zoe Rosi having a new book out creates an excitement for me. I read and adored her first psychological thriller so was really looking forward to Someone's Watching Me.

A fast-paced read that I found that I couldn't put down at all. Zoe Rosi has cemented her place as one of my favourite authors with this book.

We meet Becky, a woman with everything. A partner that's perfect for her, a great job and a home she loves. Well, that's what it seems anyway. Then a new neighbour moves in and things begin to slowly fall apart. Weird stuff happening at work, arguing with Alex, her partner. Becky feels like she is being watched or is she being paranoid? She feels her life is spiralling,everything unravelling and she can't do anything.

A taut, twisty and suspense filled book that creeped me out as well. Definitely one of those stories that make you close your curtains and look over your shoulder. Each character is developed well and Becky had me wondering what was in her head and what was real. I think that this is a perfect psychological thriller to read on a dark night! Just to increase the tension that bit more, I read it in the day, just in case you were wondering.

Zoe Rosi definitely kept me guessing and there is even a great twist at the end that I wasn't expecting. In fact I spent most of this book wishing I really was in Becky's head. Stalking is a crime that has the power to make anyone feel crazy and the author has portrayed that perfectly. Someone's Watching Me is perfect for any psychological thriller fans and I highly recommend it.
Thanks to NetGalley for the digital ARC of the book.

This book has everything you could ever want in a stunning domestic thriller. A paranoid woman (or is she?). A creepy neighbour (or is he?). A sense of foreboding that ramps up throughout the book leaving you on the edge of your seat. Well…that’s how it was for me! I read so many domestic thrillers that I’m quite hard to please now, but this sleek novel is a must read.

I have to admit that the time of year really added to my enjoyment. I love reading a snappy thriller in the autumn months. Perfect for snuggling up under your blanket, candles lit, mug of hot coffee by your side. I’m going to insist that you treat yourself today!

Someone’s Watching Me is about Becky, who seems to be having a perfect life with perfect boyfriend Alex, until a new man moves in next door who puts her on edge. Becky is convinced that someone is out for getting revenge on her, she also believes she is being watched and she suspects its Max the new next door neighbour. Is it danger or as her boyfriend Alex believes, Becky's imagination?

The writing and the plot really make you feel like you are in London with Becky and the author does a brilliant job of drawing you into the story so to make you feel like you are part of it. There are some twists and turns along the way and Becky to the reader could seem to be an unreliable narrator. This is a psychological thriller where you don’t know if the main character is going crazy or not. It has a great storyline, is tense, fast paced and very well written.
Overall, this was a good gripping psychological thriller, quite unputdownable that will keep you on the edge of the seat and it has a surprising and dramatic ending!
If you enjoy a gripping and tense Psychological Thriller then I recommend Someone’s Watching Me by Zoe Rosi.

Someone’s Watching Me is a creepy read that ramps the anticipation to the end. This fast-moving tale will stop you from looking out your window in the dead of night.

Someone’s Watching Me leaves you with a presence that fills you with dread. It’s everywhere you look. You feel it in the shadows, air, and bones. It’s a presence that leaves you paler than a sheet and the unconquerable desire to look over your shoulder. What would you do if you constantly felt on edge because you were being watched? It would make you rethink every step and action and make mistakes because your mind would continuously be elsewhere. It plays with your mind, eats at you, and makes you think you’re going insane.

That’s what’s happening with Becky. She has a perfect life – a gorgeous boyfriend, a beautiful home, a promising career, and friends that adore her. The only thing that’s truly missing is the pitter-patter of tiny feet. She longs to be a mum. It’s in her DNA. It’s the only thing that can rid her of her past. However, as we all know, the past has a habit of catching up with us – you should lace up those Nikes and try and outrun it. It’s a nasty reality check that Becky doesn’t want to face up to. However, things worsen when a new neighbour, Max, moves in next door – he has a strange hobby – watching Becky.

The catalogue of disasters starts to follow Becky around like a bad smell. She manages to lock herself out of the house she is hosting for viewing, and her taciturn boss has to come and pick her up. She organises an open house viewing for a very lucrative sale. Still, she is scuppered once more when the garden has rubbish strewn about it, including a dirty nappy and a used sanitary towel, quite rightly the clients walk off in disgust. It just goes on and on. A bad google review, her boyfriend, not taking her seriously about creepy Max, and then a bloody present is left on her car after viewing with a dodgy-looking client.

It seems like all these things couldn’t possibly happen to one person but the more she discovers about Max, the more she believes he’s behind it all. Zoe Rosi has the insane ability to paint a picture of what’s happening so you can form an opinion. The writing perfectly captured fleeting moments of Becky’s past into the present, like the ripples in a body of water after the stone had been cast. The fantastic mix of paranoia and fear lets the reader explore each character’s flaws and the freedom to decide whose actions came to be. Rosi implies that there’s no correct answer, and I loved that.

I really enjoyed this one! I read this whole book in one day. We are following our main character Becky, who feels like she finally has the life that she has always dreamed of.
When all of a sudden if it could go wrong it did. You can feel the tension rising and my anxiety right along with it. Becky is having trouble in all aspects of her life. We start to wonder who is out to get her? Is she being paranoid? Who can we trust?
I didn't know what was happening throughout this book in the best way possible. Get ready to put this on your TBR because it is one wild ride and I loved it!

Totally gripping, I couldn't put it down! The new neighbour moves in right at the start and already things are weird, something makes Becky uneasy. You have no idea that early on who it could be or what's going on, so it adds a sense of understanding Becky’s feelings. It was very frustrating that people thought it was all in Becky’s mind, it must be awful not to be believed, especially by Alex (though you do even start wondering that yourself). I did wonder why on Earth she was with him! Plenty of suspense and twists to keep me flying through the pages, I will definitely be reading more by this author.

This story was ok but, not really that surprising. As I was reading it I felt like I’d read something similar before. Ok yes, it was twisty and I liked the ending but the rest of the book just didn’t excite me. My thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

Another book I've read in 24 hours....couldn't put it down!
Right from the beginning I knew there was something in Becky's paranoia. Unfortunately some of the things that happened to her were bad luck but all of that happening at once...not just her imagination.
What felt most scary for me was how alone she felt. Even her boyfriend didn't quite believe her and I think this made me really feel scared. Even though Becky had lots of evidence, she still wasn't believed.

A fantastic thriller, a really great read. I'll be looking out for more books by the author.

This was a very easy to read book that didn't take long to finish. I liked that it wasn't overly descriptive while still holding my attention however the characters weren't very relatable. At least to me they weren't. I did enjoy the big reveal regardless and the ending was summed up perfectly.

A new neighbor has moved in next door to Becky, but there’s something creepy about the way he looks at her.
As Becky watches him from her window, she sees him peering back, right into her soul, and she’s scared. Everywhere she goes, Becky gets the tingling feeling that she’s being watched. Who is this new neighbor, who blasts his music, and can be very unpleasant towards her?

This was a good book, with an interesting plot. The final twist is a bit of a surprise, as old secrets are revealed.

Thanks to NetGalley and Thomas & Mercer publishers for the advanced copy in return for my review.

Someone's Watching Me by Zoe Rosi is the first novel by Zoe Rosi I have had the pleasure of reviewing. I was constantly wondering what was truly happening and what wasn't. The writing was excellent, suspenseful and fast-paced. Becky, Max and Alex are all unique well-fleshed out characters. I was constantly wanting to know what would happen next with this novel.

Looking forward to more books by this author.

Special thanks to the author, publisher, & netgalley for my advanced copy.

This wasn’t what I expected at all. Not to say that I was expecting to be wowed but considering the title of the book. I figured the storyline would be something juicy. WRONG!!!!

We have Becky who suddenly becomes unsettled by her new neighbor. Mind you she doesn’t know him initially and prior to the neighbors arrival her life was perfectly fine. Then boom one day she goes to stare out the window of her home and who does she see staring up at her? The neighbor, right.

That part pulled me in. I can see why she found the neighbor a bit creepy given the scenario. However, this could’ve just been a coincidence too. But she let this one situation turn her upside down almost instantly. Literally as soon as this first run-in occurs a line of disastrous things begin to happen in Becky’s life. Now everything from that point forward falls back to it could be the mysterious neighbor doing all of these things.

What disappointed me was the story itself was fast paced because it’s short but I was left unamused. I felt it lacked a lot of depth and there was no real thrill or excitement. Becky kind of irked my nerves with her paranoia which was making the story drag. Just one assumption after another is all I can say. None of the characters are memorable.

But the kicker ended up being the creepy neighbor turns out to be her brother. Who she hadn’t seen since they were kids. I honestly felt like everything was so forced. Nothing built suspense or felt like a mystery to me. Just a bunch of rambling on and on and trying to force us to believe someone’s watching her. Which someone was stalking her lol but the author did a horrible job bringing it altogether.

Then the ending was just like hey I know you tried to kill me and ruin my life but you’re my brother I forgive you let’s make up.

I’m not going to say I recommend but read at your own will!!! My rating was solely given for effort.

Becky is living her dream life with a beautiful home, a handsome and loving boyfriend, and a job she enjoys. All is going well until some unsettling events occur at work and a new and mysterious neighbor moves in next door. Suddenly, her perfect life seems to be crumbling around the edges and Becky finds herself feeling paranoid and worried.

Someone’s Watching Me is a fast-paced novel and an easy read. But, I found it difficult to become invested in many of the characters. Becky’s boyfriend, Alex, has issues of his own and his lack of support for his girlfriend is somewhat disconcerting and difficult to understand. I was most sympathetic to Becky, who finds herself constantly explaining events that have happened and are beyond her control, while she is also defending her feelings of concern and doubt. Only Angie, one of her friends at work, tries to offer support.

It would have helped if more of Becky’s background and early childhood experiences had been revealed sooner. Much of this information was revealed toward the end of the book and it seemed to be too much all at once. Meanwhile, in the final chapter, Becky’s acceptance of the events that have occurred was a bit too unbelievable and didn’t sit very well with me.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing a copy of this book for review.

Damn reality getting in the way of me devouring this gem…

Becky is a great character to begin, but there is definitely something that frustrated me about her. She very quickly becomes unsettled by the arrival of new neighbours.

Could Max be dangerous? Becky’s partner doesn’t think so. However, something Becky witnesses has her on edge.

This is well paced and I like how it’s told. I have enjoyed this book and been frustrated when interrupted because I’ve wanted to see how it’s played out.

There have been moments reading this I’ve questioned whether it’s real. A talent of the author. As a reader, you witness Becky unravel but had no idea what would come next.

This has been completely unpredictable and I’ve loved it! I can’t wait to see what Zoe has in store for readers next.

Becky has it all.
She works as a realtor, lives in a beautiful suburban home with her boyfriend Alex, and they are even planning on starting a family. Just when she thinks life doesn't get much better, strange things happen around her.
It starts with a new neighbor whom she sees doing some questionable things. Then her position at work is undermined, her social media under attack by trolls and her tires are slashed. With multiple suspects in mind she isn't sure who is responsible, and she has no one but herself to rely on to figure things out.


The story is rather short but while it's easy to read it didn't deliver the thrills.

Becky made some really weird choices and for me wasn't an enjoyable character.
Alex... while described as perfect he wasn't anything near that. While Becky enjoys true crime, he doesn't (because of, in my case, some weird logic) and he is constantly telling her to stop listening/watching things that interest her. He is also very doubtful of Becky but easily trusts someone who he knows for 2 weeks (or some time like that).
Max was a clear red flag from the begginig.

Becky has an almost perfect life, with a safe home and a loving boyfriend named Alex. After a new neighbor named Max moves in next door, her charmed life begins to fall apart. Her social media gets trolled, her tires are slashed, and someone leaves a dead bird for her to find. She suspects Max is behind these events but when she turns to Alex for help, she finds out him and Max are friends. Alex is convinced that all of this is in her head, but Becky is convinced something sinister is going on. She sees a news report of a missing woman and believes she saw her in Max's house. This book was great, with the idea of a possibly paranoid woman and the build up leading to a great conclusion. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced reader copy.

Becky isn't sure if she is being stalked, someone is just watching her or if she is being paranoid. Not groundbreaking but a solid start to a mystery. I like a good neighborhood drama and this didn't disappoint in that regard. The worst part was the afterward. Why was that necessary? I felt like it undermined the entire book.
