WELL DONE MARY KUBICA! 🙌🏻😍🤯 This was one of the most twisty books I've EVER read and has you HOOKED from the first page! I did figure out one of the ending twists ahead of time, but the fact that it was SUCH a beautiful twist gives ZERO points away for that! She's Not Sorry needs to sprint to the TOP of your thriller TBR!

I loved this book! Mary Kubica once again created a thriller that kept me guessing and shocked me multiple times throughout the book! Her characters, plot development, and MANY twists made this book one I devoured in a day!

Soooo good! From the very first page, I was hooked. It held my attention. I was suspicious of everyone. I am already a paranoid person so I had a lot of anxiety reading this book. Mary’s writing is amazing. I could picture everything in my head like a movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I cannot wait to read more of Mary’s books!!

Finishing a quick reread before finalizing review!

This book comes out TODAY!!! I just finished it was it was a suspenseful read. I was constantly questioning what is going to happen and I am not even sure all my questions were answered! There were many moving pieces.
Meghan is a nurse at the local hospital. She’s recently divorced and lives in a little apartment with her teenaged daughter. She runs into a high school friend and tries to help her through her husband abusing her. Is she who she says she is? Is anyone who they say they are? Who can Megan trust? Can Megan even trust herself?

Wow! I was invested from the start. I was a fan of Local Girl Missing, but this has to be Mary Kubica’s most twisty thriller yet and I am so here for it!!

Brief Summary: Meghan is a recently divorced ICU nurse with a 16-year-old daughter, Sienna. There are three main subplots that contribute to the suspense of the story: 1) A patient comes into the ICU that police believed tried to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge and is an a coma, but the reader can tell from the beginning that that there is more to the story. 2) Meghan runs into an old friend from high school, Nat, at a divorce support group. She is acting very strangely and appears to be in an abusive relationship with her husband/ex-husband, Declan. 3) A mysterious man is attacking and assaulting women around Meghan & Sienna’s Chicago neighborhood, sneaking up on them as these women enter their homes alone.

From start to finish I was invested and could not read fast enough to see how these plots were resolved in the end… and the ending did not disappoint in my opinion!

HAPPY PUB DAY !!!! 🥳❤️🥳

This book has A LOT going on !! I'm sure something for everyone.
I was super excited to get an Arc of this because it's all the rage 🙃 but tbh I was a little letdown. There was a lot going on like I said & maybe too much ?? Imo I felt outside of the prologue which is totally gripping & sucks u in but other than that I felt the book dragged until prob 67% in . The twists & turns were alright but nothing special or nothing to freak out over.
Overall I feel I'm missing the hype with this one 🤷
But I would in no way say this book was bad. I read it in about 3 days. I did want to know what was happening & how it ended but didn't really care about Meghan's schedule & day to day although I see why it's revelent.
Not mad I read it . Definite slow burn .
This is my first book by this author & I'd definitely read another one.

Thank you #NetGalley for the Arc

One of her best yet!!! Do not miss this one! I love all of Mary Kubica's books, but this one is unforgettable. This psychological medical thriller will keep you on the edge of your seat. Some of the scenes are so riveting with unbelievable twists. The suspense is gripping and chilling as you fly through the layers with unreliable characters, revenge and obsession.
Meghan is recently divorced and raising her teenage daughter single handed. She works full time as a RN nurse and usually doesn't become involved with her patients, but one patient, Caitlin, is on her ward in a coma with a TBI after falling 20 feet onto a train track. Was she pushed or did she jump? As she attempts to unravel the mystery and becomes gripped by her family and history, she endangers herself and daughter. Has she crossed the line with her patient?
It is fast-paced and you will wish you had more to read at the end. This book is proof Mary Kubica is a Master of Suspense.
Thank you NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing | Park Row for this incredible ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I’ve loved Mary Kubica for years and her newest book, She’s Not Sorry, doesn’t disappoint! This was a fun quick & twisty story! However, I thought the final twist was a little…random and the ending wrapped up abruptly. Also (and this is nothing against the story) my ebook version had very strange formatting; large gaps between paragraphs, page numbers in the middle of the mage, strange spacing, etc.

This was a definite unstoppable - unputdownable thriller from the first page to the last.

I' love the way this author builds her characters - not perfect or even trying to be - but always believable and mostly likeable!

The story twists and turns from page one. Surprises on every page!

Wow! What a twisty roller coaster of a ride this was! I've read several books by Mary Kubica but this might be her best yet!

This is the story of Meghan, an ICU nurse, a recently divorced single mom who works as an ICU nurse. A patient named Caitlin arrives at the hospital in a coma with a traumatic brain injury from a fall from a bridge. Did she fall? Was she pushed? Does here seemingly loving family have something to do with it? Meghan tries to not get too personally involved with her patients but for some reason this patient and her family are different. At the same time that Caitlin arrives at the hospital, Meghan rekindles a friendship with Natalie, an old friend from high school, who she meets at a divorce support group. She suspects that Natalie is in an abusive relationship with her husband and she'll do anything to help her. And with all that going on, Meghan somehow finds time to focus on her teenage daughter Sienna.

So, there's a lot going on from the very beginning. There are a lot of characters to keep up with, but the author somehow makes this work because I never had to remind myself who was who. I was hooked from the very beginning and it was really hard to put down. There were so many twists and turns and I couldn't wait to see how everything wrapped up. This was truly a great read!

Thank you so much to Harlequin Trade Publishing and NetGalley for the ARC. Publication day is today, April 2, 2024 so get your copy now. I promise...you won't be sorry!

I enjoyed parts of this book, but it felt slow at times. Overall, I liked the how the book ended and both stories played out. .

Thank you to Netgalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing, Park Row for an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. This book officially publishes on 4/2/24!

This book starts off with a bang and is a very fun read. Despite being told from a single POV, the character development and interactions were not lacking in any way. Giving this one 4 stars because I did guess one of the bigger twists; however, this did not entirely detract from my overall experience reading the book as there are several twists in this one. I love how the author ended this one, although I will leave my thoughts on the ending there so as to not spoil! Definitely recommend giving this one a read, but please check any relevant trigger warnings before doing so.

First I want to thank NetGalley, Harlequin Trade Publishing and Mary Kubica for my ARC of She’s Not Sorry.


Holy smokes! That was a wild ride! I couldn’t put this one down. I just had to get to the end and figure out who was behind it all! There was a lot going on with this book but almost everything was brought together in the end. A few parts of the story weren’t answered and left me questioning how and if Meghan got answers. Overall I did enjoy the storyline and the characters were well developed. This is my first read by Mary Kubica but it will not be my last!

“We can only know so much about the people in our lives.”

I have always enjoyed reading Mary Kubica’s books (The Other Mrs. is still my favorite), and She’s Not Sorry was no exception. I especially loved the ICU aspect as it added an exciting addition to the storyline.

It was such a fast-paced book that I felt like I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. I needed to know what was happening and how it would turn out. It kept me guessing until the very end. The BIG twist was a complete surprise to me, and I had to go back a few pages to ensure I’d read it right. What was the last twisty book that left you surprised?

My only issue with the story was that too much was going on. All the pieces came together at the end, but it seemed over the top and unbelievable. Some chapters felt repetitive and unnecessary to the overall arc of the story. It felt very scattered and rushed as I approached the final chapter, which ultimately was a letdown.

👩🏽‍⚕️ ICU Nurse

I recommend reading She’s Not Sorry if you’re looking for a twisty mystery that will take you by surprise.

I am such a fan of Mary Kubica’s work and I was due for a good thriller. I read this over a rainy, gloomy weekend and the vibes were absolutely perfect. I love a book where I don’t see the twist coming and this one is a roller coaster in the best way!

Our main character, Meghan, is an ICU nurse and also a single mom to a teenage girl. Balancing that is hard enough, but her world is rattled when a patient, Caitlin comes in in a coma. Caitlin attempted to take her own life & this brings back major trauma because Meghan’s sister also died from suicide.

Caitlin’s prognosis isn’t looking great when a witness comes forward and says there were two people on the bridge when she jumped. Maybe it wasn’t an attempt to take her own life after all. I absolutely loved putting all of the pieces together. And when I finally realized the big twist I was SHOOK.

There is a minor storyline that I didn’t feel was necessary to the book, and was a tad distracting. The Meghan / Caitlin storyline didn’t need anything else since it was so well done! Absolutely devoured this book in two sittings!

Out today! Super fast paced with that jump scare factor. A solid thriller full of red herrings that will have you continuously questioning which character can be trusted.

Meghan is an ICU nurse who has just been assigned to a gravely injured patient believed to have attempted to take her own life by jumping off a bridge. As more details emerge about her fall, more questions are raised. Did she jump? Was she pushed? Who else may have seen what happened? Meghan soon entangles herself in this drama, becoming a little too close with the patient's family while doing some detective work of her own. Adding to the plot twists, she fears for herself and her daughter’s safety as a stalker is also loose in her neighborhood attacking and assaulting women as they find themselves alone.

This was a solid read for me and I really did enjoy it, but I was left with a few questions in the plot that didn’t quite make sense to me and the ending felt a bit rushed at the end.
Parts that I felt needed more clarity:
The phone call asking Meghan for $10,000 ransom for her daughter. It wasn’t really made clear if Caitlin was the one demanding this and what was she planning on doing with the money?
Meghan’s ex husband: He was dating Caitlin? So, she just hit her own face to pretend as if she was being beaten by her "husband", how did she explain that to the boyfriend and how did she just completely disappear after they “broke up”?

Kubica has done it again with this fast paced jaw dropping thriller… I mean how many twists can one throw into a novel! I was gasping for air on more then one occasion as I quickly turned page after page to find out got the novel was going to end! Holy shit was I so unsuspecting of so many things’!!!

A Newly divorced mom is finding raising her daughter and keeping her nursing job a bit of a stressful challenge and as the novel develops we can see how stressful life as an icu nurse can be. Just as things couldn’t get worse we are thrown twists after crazy twists and doom become aware of why she is so stressed out. Then the unthinkable happens when a patient dies. Still not all is as it seems when we are thrown some more huge twists’! This is one crazy roller coaster of a ride thriller that I completely devoured!

I’m giving this book a 3.5/5 ⭐️. I feel like this book was entertaining and suspenseful! This book started off slow, but eventually picked it up! There were parts in the book that were creepy, but it was fun to read! There was also some things in this book that I was not sure what was going on or left unanswered questions! I will definitely read another book from this author!

She's Not Sorry is a standalone thriller about a divorced ICU nurse raising a teenage daughter. Meghan Michaels has bad memories of her sister's suicide years earlier and has a difficult time treating a new patient in critical condition after jumping off a bridge. However, police discover that Caitlin Beckett may have been pushed and Meghan finds herself in the middle of a dangerous situation. Some members of Caitlin's family seem to be keeping secrets and others claim Caitlin herself has a checkered past.

There is so much going on in Meghan's life! In addition to the stress at work, Meghan is dealing with a temperamental ex-husband, a moody teenager, worries about an old friend, a serial killer in her neighborhood, threats being sent to her, and secrets of her own. This keeps the story fast-paced and entertaining, but sometimes it's too much jammed into one book. There are so many suspicious characters, it's hard to know who to root for. I was surprised by some of the big reveals, especially one that a murky timeline made hard to figure out. However, most of the various side plots and loose ends come together at the end. The Good Girl is still my favorite book by Kubica, but this book is engaging and fans of this author, especially her book Local Woman Missing, should enjoy this one.

I received an advance copy of this ebook at no cost from NetGalley, Park Row Books, and HTP Books. My review is voluntary and unbiased.

Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing for allowing me to review this book.

She’s Not Sorry by Mary Kubica
Release Date: April 2, 2024
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

I absolutely loved this book. I haven’t read a good thriller like this in a minute and this book was everything I could have asked for!

It is absolutely packed with twists and turns and unreliable people. I definitely did not expect the big plot twist AT ALL. My jaw was on the floor!!

I also loved that this was set in Chicago since I grew up in the suburbs I knew a lot of the locations mentioned in this book.

Just when I thought there couldn’t possibly be any more twists there definitely was. And omg yall the literal last sentence of this book will have me thinking for months.

If you are looking for a good psychological thriller, I couldn’t recommend this book more
