Book Description
"Riveting, chilling, and page-turning. Be prepared to stay up all night." -- New York Times bestselling author Lisa Scottoline.
For fans of dark and twisty psychological thrillers, Watch Me is a riveting novel of suspense about how far obsession can go.
Kate Youngblood is disappearing. Muddling through her late 30s as a creative writing professor at Blackwood college, she’s dangerously close to never being noticed again. The follow-up novel to her successful debut tanked. Her husband left her for a woman ten years younger. She’s always been bright, beautiful, independent and a little wild, but now her glow is starting to vanish. She’s heading into an age where her eyes are less blue, her charm worn out, and soon no one will ever truly look at her, want to know her, again.

My Thoughts
What a disturbing but great read this was. One of the creepiest psychological thrillers I have ever read. There were times even though I just wanted to keep reading but I had to stop, take a little break just to be able to handle what was coming next. 

A lot of unexpected twists and breathtaking moments which is what makes the story this good and the characters. After reading You by Caroline Kepnes I never thought I was going to come across more characters like Joe Goldberg, so obsessed, possessive and with such sick minds but then you read this book and you are introduced to Sam and Kate and oh God, what a ride. 

Liked the writing, a very interesting plot and also liked how the story is told from dual points of view, alternating between Sam and Kate. Watch Me, a great psychological thriller which I totally recommend. 

Thank you St. Martin's Press and Netgalley for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
