Someone is Always Watching was a thrilling read.  Blithe's friend starts freaking out about cameras and people watching her.  Something happens, but Blithe only knows she got a concussion from hitting her head on a sink in the bathroom.  Odd delusions start to plague her, although she writes them off as a concussion symptom.

She receives an anonymous email telling her that someone she knows is a murderer.

Suddenly, Blithe has more questions than answers.  She  and her friends are on a mission to get their answers.

But they aren't prepared for what they are about to learn.

A thriller and a mystery.  Worth the read.

TRIGGER WARNINGS-

Death, kidnapping, abuse, murder, sexual assault

One day out of the blue Gabrielle has a mental brake down at school that causes her group of friends to start questioning what the real cause of her brake down was. Slowly things start to unravel and they all realize that their lives are not entirely what they seem, or rather what they were told, well more remember. 

Really good start that sucked you in, the middle started to fall flat and was a bit confusing-but I think that was more me as my interest was waning and it's where I kind of began to lose interest, and then the ending was anti-climatic and tied up too nicely.
