A group of people who have one thing in common.. Stalking. Have a WhatsApp group where they can support each other. When one of them is murdered after their stalker was released from prison and a death threat sent to one of them, but they don't know who it is for, they try to figure out who is next and to put a stop to what they are going through.
There are lots of twists and turns throughout, a good read.

I had this book as an audiobook. This was an easy listen, I liked the narrator, its a modern day story about people being stalked and the fear they feel. The characters come together to support each other through difficulties of not knowing if someone who is obsessed with you is going to kill you! I found it a teeny bit drawn out but the beginning and the end made up for it.

Every Move You Make is an intense and chilling thriller which delves deeply into the terrifying world of stalking. The book follows a WhatsApp group of five victims of stalking as they try to remain safe, support each other and live a normal life. All is well until one member dies and a wreath with a harrowing message turns up at her funeral. What follows is a 10 day countdown, full of fear, anguish and mistrust.
There is a lot going on in this book with 4 main characters, each with their own sub plot, so as you can imagine there is an abundance of twists, turns and red herrings which will keep you on your toes. The pacing is quick and propulsive and it is such an easy one to be consumed by and binge on. The characters are well developed and it’s far too easy to see yourself in their place and feel the fear.
While I enjoyed the chaotic nature I personally would have loved if Taylor concentrated maybe on fewer characters and delved deeper into the psychological aspect of both the stalker and the victim. In her author’s note she details her own unfortunate experience with stalking and I felt the book would have definitely rated higher for me if she tapped into that a little more and delved more into the more realistic effects and damages rather than the frenzy of characters.
Overall a really gripping and nerve wracking thriller which I enjoyed, but wanted just a little more from.
3.5/5 ⭐

I really liked the sound of the book and the concept was clever. But this just seemed to drag for me, and I couldn't understand why people who had been stalked would continue to be so invested in their trauma. I didn't like River's character, and found him irritating.
It wasn't for me sadly.

Thank you Avon Books and Netgalley
I'm a huge fan of C L Taylor and this book was no exception.
Full of twists and turns and you don't always see them coming.
You must read this.

I think that the only part of the book I was interested in was the ending.
I just feel as if the book dragged on for ages and could’ve easily been 100 pages shorter it just dragged on for ages.
I liked the idea of the plot- to get rid of a stalker you need to become one. I thought it was quite unique!
I also liked the idea of the friendship group supporting one another, however, I found myself in wanting to skip River’s POV chapters as I just didn’t like his character at all. He was so whiny and annoying.
However, I did enjoy the ending - especially what Bridget did for Lucy , it tied up the story nicely together.
Definitely expect some twists at the end!

C.L. Taylor can always be relied upon for a thrilling domestic noir yarn, but I found myself struggling with this novel. Derived from unfortunate personal experience encountered by the author, this novel presents four individuals who meet thanks to an online support group for stalking victims. They are all threatened at the funeral of a former group member who has been murdered, and they resort to desperate measures to keep themselves safe. My issues were with the enormous amount of background information to remember about each of the four characters as well as their family members, colleagues and acquaintances, and with the insertion of the fictitious WhatsApp messages that somehow do not read quite right. Trying to bring all this together meant that I did not appreciate the various cliffhangers and eventual denouement as I would have otherwise. On balance, a good thriller but not necessarily one I would re-read. I would like to thank the publishers and NetGalley for making the ARC available to me in exchange for this honest feedback.

Well, apart from the obvious ear worm in the title, this one was a goody! A group of domestic abuse survivors set out to hep solve the death of another victim. Her violent ex has recently been released from prison. AS always, twists and turns around the main characters and the guilty hiding in unexpected places.

Thank you to @netgalley and Avon Books for allowing me to read this ARC.
I've read some of C L Taylors books already so had high hopes for this and it didn't disappoint. It was everything a good thriller needed and honestly I was hooked.
I loved the storyline. Each chapter left me wanting more and to know what was going to happen. I felt drawn to each characters story for different reasons and loved how they all linked from being strangers supporting each other online through their own trauma to meeting in real life to save each other.
As the story progressed, I did have my suspicions about that one character, however I couldn't of guessed how it would actually turn and the twists were brilliant! Especially the ending! A mixture of emotions and it was so well written!
I love my thrillers and this was an easy five star read! 😍

Absolutely incredible book! What a gripping read, from the first page to the last, I was completely hooked! I loved all the characters POVs, the storyline was incredibly intriguing and always left me questioning everything, which I loved. The pace was perfect. It felt like so much happened that you were always wanting to read more & more. there was always brilliant twists & turns throughout which just kept me hooked. It had such an intrigue throughout, it was really interesting reading about the actions of stalkers & the affect that this had on the multiple characters, it was a very intense storyline and each character had their own story but it was cleverly written so that it never became too overbearing or complicated, the stories were very easy to keep up with. The characters were all amazing too, I loved their interactions, you got to know them pretty well as Individuals aswell as their role within the group. It was a fantastic read that I will definitely be recommending.

This story follows a group of friends trying to survive together from their stalkers.Each of them have different stalkers from their past relationships and because of this, stalkers know all the things about them.However the fifth member was murdered by the stalker and they are left with a note saying they have 10 days left until one of them dies.
I really enjoyed the writing of the book it was very easy and fast paced.The stalking was fun to read at first but then nothing was happening in the middle of the book and the way they felt too much fear over their stalkers felt unrealistic.Also the fact that they don't want police to interfere in such situation was not to my enjoyment. however everything got mended in the end and apart from the dragging portion in the middle everything was thrilling.
Also loved the bit about author and reading it made me emotional.
Thank You to Avon Books for the gifted ARC provided through NetGalley.

Every Move You Make - C.L. Taylor
Friends Alex, Lucy, River and Bridget have a stalker. Their mutual friend Nat has already been killed by a stalker and at her funeral a cryptic message was left predicting another death in ten days time - they just don’t know which one of them it will be …
The author captured the pure terror of what it feels like to be stalked. Another utterly captivating and propulsive read by Taylor. The emotional element surprised me - I was totally hooked. Well developed characters gave each one of them a distinctive voice.
I loved the authors note at the end where she shares her own harrowing stalking experience giving the novel its air of authenticity.
Many thanks to Avon books and NetGalley for an advanced digital copy.
