This book kept me hooked from the start! Mary Kubica does it again with her storytelling. I thought this book was so weak done with how everything/everyone tied in together. The twists that happened were things you could have guessed but not necessarily would you have seen coming. I also really liked that there was more than one big twist!

Obviously I devoured this book. It was so well-written and engaging. One twist took me by surprise and gave me whiplash. The end was just the slightest bit lacking but it didn’t take away from the book for me. Overall, I would highly recommend. Thank you NetGalley for this ARC!

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade publishing for this ARC!! I was so thrilled to receive it as I love Mary Kubica’s work!!

Wow, this book absolutely blew me away from beginning to end. This story absolutely captivated me. Meghan is a nurse who is on duty when a woman arrives with a traumatic brain injury. This story is impossible to tell without giving spoilers. You should really go into this one blind because the amount of twist will shock you!! Such an amazing read!!

Mary Kubica is a genius! This takes me back to Pretty Baby feels!

To top off the thrills, she paints the setting in snowy Chicago!!

Meghan is a Chicago nurse with enough on her plate. Her patient Caitlin Beckett jumped from a bridge and is now barely recognizable. When Mr. and Mrs. Beckett come to see about their only daughter, things take a strange turn.

In her divorce support group, she reconnects with Natalie from high school. This is what she needs: wine, no stress, girl time. But each time they meet, Natalie has a different bruise. Is this someone she can confide in?

Meghan walks everywhere, living only a mile from her hospital. But as the news is reporting attack after attack on women in the neighborhood, she becomes increasingly more paranoid. Even her own 16 year old daughter becomes a target. Meghan receives a call from a man using her daughter’s phone: “If you ever want to see your daughter again, you will do exactly as I say”.


The unexpected twists will shock you as Meghan is determined to find out what really happened to Caitlin, Nat and Sienna. Your trust will be out the window! Is it Luke or Ben or Declan or Jackson??

Thank you to Netgalley and Park Row for letting me read this great book!

Another gripping read by Mary Kubica. A nurse hiding a terrible secret. Her daughter who is kidnapped. A man attacking women in Chicago. A woman who is brought to the hospital after a failed suicide attempt. All these stories are connected to the nurse. A good page turner. Thanks to Netgalley for this ARC.

“Meghan has always tried to stay emotionally detached from her patients, but this time, she mistakenly lets herself get too close until she’s deeply entangled in Caitlin’s and her family’s lives. Only when it’s too late, does she realize that she and her daughter could be the next victims.”

Personal review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Kubica is an auto buy author for me every time, as her novels helped me fall back in love with reading after college a decade ago. This was the first time I got lucky enough to get an Advanced Readers Copy of her work and I was so excited, I binged it in two days. This book is as suspenseful, thrilling, tense, and contained some gasp worthy plot developments! Loved Megan’s character as a nurse in Chicago working in the ICU and her relationship with her daughter. Besides her patient Caitlin being pushed off a bridge and in a coma, there is also a rapist on the loose to make the novel even more suspenseful. I love how Kubica tied everything together in the end. Thank you @netgalley and @parkrowbooks for the ARC in exchange for my honest opinion!

Synopsis: Meghan Michaels is trying to find balance between being a single mom to a teenage daughter and working as a full time nurse. While on duty at the hospital one day, a patient named Caitlin arrives in a coma with a traumatic brain injury, having jumped from a bridge and plunging over twenty feet to the train tracks below. But when a witness comes forward with shocking details about the fall, it calls everything they know into question. Was Caitlin pushed and if so, by whom and why?

I'm glad to have had the opportunity to read this book. I thought it had a tense atmosphere, which I usually enjoy in a thriller. I did find it a bit slow in some parts.
I found it hard to connect with the main character, Meghan. She made choices that I just didn't understand. I did enjoy the ICU setting, as I felt like it was different and gave some depth to her character.
Thanks to Net Galley for the book to review.

I really wanted to love this one but felt bogged down by detail and side plots. There's a good twist at the end but it takes so long to get to it that it wasn't as fulfilling as it should have been. A good read but not my favorite Kubica thriller.

Good book! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one! This book had a bit of everything! It had suspense, Action, intrigue, mystery, murder, revenge, a great who done it, great plot twist, and some crazy twists and turns! The storyline was very interesting and kept me glued to my Kindle! I definitely recommend reading this book as it was well worth reading! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

Thank you NetGalley and Mary Kubica for the ARC copy of She’s Not Sorry.

I really enjoyed this book and read it through in a single sitting. I did find it to be a bit predictable. I sniffed out all but 1 of the twists but overall I would absolutely recommend this book.

This one really got me. I thought I had nailed what was happening and midway through the book realized I had gotten it wrong. I love that! This had a main character I was rooting for while also being consumed by the mystery. I definitely recommend this one, especially now in spooky season! Do yourself a favor and find out why "She's Not Sorry"!

Mary Kubica is back with another psychological thriller that was hard to put down. For fans of her writing style, such as myself, I was a little disappointed to find that this one was not written in alternating perspectives. However, I don't see that style working with this book because of the plot lines. Perhaps two books would have been better so each plot and its characters could have been explored in more detail. Still, it was an enjoyable and quick read.

While I liked the twist around 70%, it was too, too slow of a burn for me. Thank you for the arc copy!

This is a difficult one to review without giving anything away but I’ll try. The whole Meghan/Caitlin story is crazy realistic but impossible to imagine. Somehow that doesn’t make sense but after reading it you’ll understand. What limits will we go to protect those we love? You may be surprised at how you feel the justification at the end.

Thank you to NetGalley for allowing me to read this in exchange for an honest review.

I read this in one sitting, such a quick read. It dragged quite a lot and would have been a three-star read if not for the mind-blowing (for me, at least) twist that seemed to come 3/4 of the way through the book. While I saw a later twist coming, I didn’t see the other one coming at all and it boosted it up to 4 stars for me!

I enjoyed this Mary Kubica book! The twists and turns were unexpected. Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for allowing me access to this advance copy.

This is a suspenseful story where an ICU nurse is, by all appearances, a third-party observer in the care of a young woman who fell, jumped, or was pushed from a bridge. The writing is superb, the characters believable, and the plot memorable. A hard-to-put-down title. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing.

Wow! This is exactly the kind of book that I love to read! It kept me guessing the entire time! Just when you think you have got some aspects figured out, a curve ball comes along! The flow of events in this book is perfect and it really draws you in. You don’t want to quit reading!!! I highly recommend this book to any of my reader friends that like a great psychological thriller! This one will keep you on the edge of your seat and you simply won’t be able to put it down!!!

Mary Kubica has done it again! This might be my favorite of all her books. A short synopsis:

Meghan is an ICU nurse, recently single and raising a 16 year old daughter, Sienna. A patient is admitted to the hospital with a brain injury from a fall from a Chicago bridge. Meghan becomes entangled in the mystery surrounding this patient and the patient's family. With time, it's unclear whether this was a suicide attempt or an attempted murder. Meghan finds herself too deep into the situation, and she soon figures out that she's put herself and her family at risk.

I could not put this one down! It has an eerie feeling from the start, because Meghan walks across the dangerous city to and from work each day. The author describes the setting so well that I was anxious for her. I also enjoyed the medical type setting and reading about the realities nurses face in caring for their patients. Meghan's life is complex because of her recent split from her husband and the difficulty of raising her daughter as the primary caretaker. She is faced with decisions that would be difficult for anyone, and she definitely feels the consequences of the choices she makes. There are many twists and turns throughout the book, one of which I did NOT see coming. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I highly recommend it for fans of psychological thrillers.

This was a great read. I often found myself thinking of what I would do in Meghan's situation. It felt like there were plot holes but I honestly think the author was so svelt in her writing that I didn't catch on. Definitely a book worth reading and re-reading.
