The Other Mrs. is an intriguing, twisty thriller by Mary Kubica. Sadie and Will Foust and their two sons move to Maine after Will's sister tragically commits suicide. The family's relocation from Chicago comes at an opportune time, as the family had been dealing with some difficult times, with Will's recent affair and their older son getting into some trouble at school. They move into Will's sister's house with his creepy niece, Imogen, who is grieving the loss of her mother and is moody and closed-off.
Strange things happen in the small coastal town. The Foust's neighbour is murdered and unexplained events begin happening to Sadie.
The reader also hears from the perspectives of several other characters, Camille, Will's stalker and affair partner, as well as Mouse, who is being abused by her stepmother.
Full of mystery and suspense, this book is hard to put down! It kept me guessing up to the very end.

Mary Kubica does it again, keeping us captivated til the very end! I thoroughly enjoyed this book and all the twists.
The story switches between Sadie, Camille and Mouse.
Sadie and her husband Will have relocated to a small island in Maine after the death of Will’s sister Alice. Alice left Will her house and also guardianship of her 16 yr old daughter Imogen. Sadie is a dr and the head of the house. Will teaches a few classes but is otherwise home for their children Otto, Tate and now Imogen. Sadie has been keeping her distance from Will since he cheated on her but really wants to lean on him when she finds out that one of her neighbors, Morgan has been murdered. There is a killer on the loose and Sadie is not sure who to trust or if the killer is someone she knows. Sadie is determined to solve Morgan’s murder at any cost and will go to great lengths to do so. Imogen has been combative and awful to Sadie since moving in together and Sadie has suspicions about what is really going on with Imogen and wonders if it has anything to do with murder.
Camille believes that Will should be hers because she met him first. She can’t let go and accept that he has Sadie as his wife. She wants more than anything to have Sadie out of the picture and have Will for herself.
Mouse is a 6yr old girl who lives with her father and now stepmother. She misses her dad greatly and wants nothing to do with her “fake mom” who is awful to her.
The story takes you through different scenarios and introducing different story lines that have you wondering why until you reach the end of the book and all is revealed. Definitely recommend!
Thanks Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review!

This page-turner had me hooked within the first couple of pages. A murder occurs on a little island, shortly after Sadie and her family move in for a fresh start from their past problems. It is quickly realized that the problems of the past have followed the family to their new home. Written from the perspective of three different characters, an intriguing tale is told. I found the plot twists refreshing and a definite surprise. They were unlike the usual psychological thriller. Once I began reading I had a hard time putting the book down. I would highly recommend this book if you enjoy trying to uncover the mystery of whodunit.

The Other Mrs. is a complex and expertly layered novel of suspense and dare I say, one of my favorites from Kubica? Having read so many romances and other books this is one that I absolutely NEEDED to stay out of a book funk and it WORKED. I loved it! It's one of my new top favorites.

Thanks NetGalley for the ARC.

Good book, saw the plot happening so that was kinda disapointing but still a decent story. Not creepy enough. I feel horrible that she was exploited like that. I'm not sure what i can say without giving the story away.

3.5 stars

Another amazing story by Mary Kubica! I was so excited to have the privilege of reading an ARC from one of my favorite authors and it certainly did not disappoint. This story perfectly illustrates the saying that things aren’t always what they seem. A great thriller right up to the end.

Mary Kubica writes another riveting novel that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat until the very last page. The plot is well built and delivered meticulously through dynamic characterization and narrative shifts. The subject matter is dark and may be a trigger for some readers but Kubica does well to deliver it in a gracious manner. The book was hard to put down as it was taught with intrigue and suspense. Highly recommended. 5 stars.

Thank you to #NetGalley for the ARC of #TheOtherMrs which I read and reviewed voluntarily. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Buckle up , you are in for a heck of a ride on that roller coaster that also turns you upside down !

The Other Mrs. is an dark atmospheric book that will have you reading as quickly as you can without missing a clue as to who murdered Monica.

Just when you begin to get suspicious there is another twist !

How well do you really know anyone ?

There is also more to this book than just the mystery , I don't want to give anything away, though I am tempted.

Put this on your Want to Read books, you won't be sorry.

Thanks to Net Galley and Harlequin Books for the opportunity to read The Other Mrs.

<b> I Recieved an E Galley via Netgalley for an honest review </b>

This was a really fun thriller. I figured out one thing early but then didn’t know for sure until the author was ready for me to know! It’s very twisted and dark. It’s super fun to read and try and figure out what the heck is going on.


<b> TRIGGER WARNINGS </b>
Extreme child abuse. violence

I really enjoyed the characters and never really knowing quite what is going on. You can tell that Sadie is a very paranoid person. We also follow a 6 year old girl named Mouse and another woman named Camille.




With this being an arc and a kindle arc at that there were some things I noticed, some stuff was very very repetitive, now I’m not sure if it was supposed to be or was just in the arc, it bothered me a little bit because I was like “I know this.. we just read this.. she just said this”. Again not sure if it was a writing choice or an editing thing. That’s why it is 4 stars instead of 5.

This was another thrilling ride by Mary Kubica! The Other Mrs. has a creepy house setting with many creepy characters. There are enough twists and turns in this book that kept me quickly reading to find out who was responsible for the murders. The author does a good job highlighting a serious subject matter. #TheOtherMrs #MaryKubica #NetGalley

Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to preview The Other Mrs. by Mary Kubica. Kubica is a writer who takes you on a journey - fast paced, and sometimes nerve wracking. In her newest novel, she introduces Sadie, a married doctor with a husband and two children. Sadie and her family move from Chicago to Maine to take care of Sadie's husband, Will's sister's estate. This includes Will's niece, Imogene. Will's sister committed suicide. They are isolated on a small island off the Maine coast, and they settle in but not really.....
Sadie is glad to have left Chicago because she discovered that Will had been unfaithful, and she wants to make a new start. Sadies voice depicts her insecurity and deep sadness, but she is willing to try again. But a crime on the island makes Sadie aware that there is something going on, and there may be someone following her...someone who wants to hurt her...someone who wants to see her die.
WOW - really good book - Kubica grabs you from the beginning of the book and slowly lets you go at the end. Unexpected twists and turns will keep you from putting this one down - RECOMMEND!!!

Typical Kubica in my opinion. I had some inkling of what was going on...but as usual, there was a whole lot of plot twists and turns I had not anticipated and did not see coming. Love her books and the fact that I know there are going to be surprises and try as I might I can't figure most of them out. LOL

Holy Hot Mess!!
Thoroughly enjoyed the roller coaster ride of this book.
It's going to be difficult to write anything about this without giving too much away!!

What I loved: The twists and turns. I had bits and pieces figured out early on, but the twists and turns just kept coming!!
What I liked: Well written with a great wrap-up at the end. No annoying dangling storylines left at the end.
What I hated: I felt a few things were just a little too perfect, but it just mildly annoyed me - it certainly didn't ruin the story for me!

Mary Kubica writes a wicked psychological suspense story and she didn't disappointment with this one.

Loved this book! The twists and turns kept me guessing and even when I thought I had figured it all out I was wrong. A new favorite of Kubica’s!

Another novel from Mary Kubica that is impossible to put down. As Sadie and Will settle into their new home in Maine, after Will's sister dies and the family moves to be with Will's niece, a murder occurs in the neighborhood. Everyone is on edge, and Sadie starts to look deep into her family to solve the mystery. Big twists have the reader guessing all the way to the end.

Thank you, NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book.

I would have liked the Sadie Will story if written as general fiction. not a fan of the its always the husband, or wife is mentally ill slow reveal, pretty cliche and graphic which takes away from
what was otherwise compelling writing and makes me sorry I read until the end.

Great little mystery. Just when you think you've figured it out, it goes in a different ditection. Would most definitely recommend.

What an absorbing story! I've read a few of Kubica's books and didn't love them all, but this was a real page turner and I'm thrilled I had a chance to read it!

I thought I had it figured out. I was wrong! So many twists and turns... they keep coming! Such a roller coaster and I enjoyed every minute!
This was a great ride! Thank you NetGalley!

I love a setting with a creepy house.

Sadie and Will have just moved their family into a house they inherited on a small island in Maine.

It smells musty, its dark and dreary with paneling and heavy drapery. That is not all though- The house has a disturbing history and it threatens to unravel the new occupants.

Things aren't going well in the new neighborhood. Seems that murder is in the air.

I was engrossed in the first third of the novel with the suspense and intriguing characters. I wanted to love this book, but the direction it took ultimately fizzled a bit for me.

My third by the author and not my favorite, I was looking for a more "thrilling" read than what it turned out to be for me. 

Thanks to NG/ publisher for my review copy. OUT on 2/18/2019
