Another bingeable thriller by Mary Kubica! She’s Not Sorry as fast paced and twisty. Buckle in for the rollercoaster it is intended to be, pay attention to the details, and see if you can put it together. There are certainly some unbelievable things as you reflect on the novel after the fact, but don’t let that ruin the ride. If you enjoy Kubica’s work, you’ll enjoy this one.

Special thanks to Harlequin Trade Publishing for the ARC via NetGalley.

Sometimes being a good person bites you in the butt!
If it wasn’t for bad luck Megan would not have any luck at all.
So many twists in this book my head was spinning. Some I predicted and some I didn’t. All in all it was a fun ride. In my opinion this is one of Mary Kubica’s better books.

Twisty, gripping and fabulous!! Usually I guess the endings but for some reason, Mary’s twists are so good, it keeps me guessing until the very end. Such a good thriller!!

Mary Kubica is one of my favorite authors, I never know which way her stories are going to go and her work, from Local Woman Missing, to her latest - She's Not Sorry - always keep me guessing. I wound up listening to SNS in audiobook format and finished it in a matter of days. I would recommend for fans of Lisa Jewell and Shari LaPena. Five stars!

3.5⭐️ rounded up

I wasn’t sure about this book in the first half. There was a lot going on and it felt like too much. Then the big twist came, and more followed. I definitely think the end of it makes up for a slower start. Fun book!

Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

This was my first Mary Kubica book. I’ve seen a lot of mixed reviews of her books, so I’ve always been hesitant to read any. This was picked for one of my book clubs so I figured, why not? I enjoyed this story. It was a relatively slow burn. There wasn’t a lot of drama to the story, but it was still interesting enough. I liked Ms. Kubica’s writing.

Meghan is a nurse who gets invested in one of her coma patients’ supposed suicide attempt. By questioning the circumstances behind Caitlin’s jump and getting involved with her family, she may have put herself and her daughter in danger.

I will probably pick up another Kubica novel.

Thank you Harlequin Trade Publishing, The Hive and NetGalley for my ARC of this book.

I did read this when I initially got it a few months ago - sorry for the delay in reviewing. This was my first Mary Kubica book, and I really enjoyed it. I really enjoy stories where the character is suffering memory loss or some kind of trauma because it makes the book more mysterious to figure out what happened. I do feel that the pace was slow at times, but I liked the multiple storylines and trying to figure out how to solve it. I love that you can never figure out stories like this. I am excited to try more books by this author..

Loved this book! This might be my favorite by Mary Kubica, and I think I've read most, if not all of her books. I knew the two storylines were going to come together, but I could not determine how. And I did not anticipate them coming together as they did! This book kept me guessing in the best way and I can't wait to see what Mary Kubica comes out with next.

This was a good read. It's more of a slow burn thriller. When the twist arrived my jaw was on the floor. After the twist reveal it was a bit lack luster. Everything seemed to be nicely tied up in a bow. Hmm I didn't like that too much haha but that just me. Overall this was a good read.

Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing for the E-ARC.

All thoughts and opinions are honest and my own.

I loved Local Woman Missing.. I was so excited to open this book up. & it didn’t disappoint at all. I think if I didn’t have to adult all the time I could have finished this in one or two sittings. I enjoyed the writing style and fast paced storytelling. The twists kept me engaged and while I questioned parts of the story I really enjoyed this book.

So Good! I couldn't put this down and an incredible twist I absolutely did. not see coming. LOVE IT!!

Thank you, Netgalley for my arc. Top books of the year so far.

Meghan is a single mother and full time nurse. One day during a shift, a patient named Caitlin arrives at the hospital in a coma with a brain injury because she jumped from a bridge. Soon after her arrival a witness comes forward indicating that Caitlin may have been pushed. Meghan doesn’t typically get so close to patients but she finds herself inserting herself into her family's lives. Soon Meghan realizes that getting too close may have put her and her daughter in danger.

A riveting tale that will not only keep you on the edge of your seat but keep you guessing until the end. This was a really quick read that is full of mysterious secrets, lies and deception. I didn’t see the final twist coming.

This month the #literarylovelies read my pick! I chose @marykubica’s newest thriller which just came out in April. I loved her books Local Woman Missing and I thought this could be a good fit for book club.

There were some mixed reviews amongst us, but I really liked this one! The last thriller we read together was missing big twists and She’s Not Sorry had tons! It also had a few topics that were interesting such as life after divorce, moving on as a single mother, domestic violence, etc.

Meghan Michaels is an ICU nurse working one day when a young woman comes in with serious injuries. She fell from a bridge and no one knows if this was her own doing or if she was pushed. When it looks like it was a crime, who did it? At the same time as this is happening, a friend of Meghan’s from HS appears one night at Meghan’s divorce support group and they pick up their friendship again. But Nat’s story is hard to hear and she wants to help her in anyway she can. She’s also raising a 16 yr old daughter who keeps her on her toes and there’s a man in their neighborhood who is attacking women. All these things keep Meghan’s mind going.

This book flew by! I read most of it in one evening and I really couldn’t put it down. I had to know what happened to Caitlin. There were also a few twists I didn’t see coming at all. It made for a great discussion because I love to see who could guess what was happening and which really did take us by surprise. Our book club meeting nights are always my favorite and I love catching up on my friends’ lives as much as discussing the book.

Thank you @parkrowbooks @htpbooks @htp_hive and @bookishfirst for my gifted copy.

She's Not Sorry by Mary Kubica is a slow-burn thriller about a nurse named Meghan and a patient she's caring for in the ICU who jumped from a pedestrian bridge in an attempt to take her own life Meghan's life is a little hectic with this patient, a 16 year old daughter who is pushing some boundaries, and ex husband who is constantly being a pain, and now a person who is attacking women in her area of the city at night. She also attends a divorce support group meeting and has run into an old high school friend named Caitlin. Caitlin seems to be scared of her husband and Meghan offers to help, glad that her old friend is back in her life. But all is not what it seems in this story.

I thought this book was okay. It was a slow slog through the first half. The constant inner monologue of how horrible men were, how scary the city was for single women, especially single mothers with teen daughters, the drone of the names of area in the city, the whine of how hard her life is. I really wasn't interested in all that. Sometimes it seems like Meghan was overly cautious, but most of the times she just seemed dumb and made dumb choices.

The twist near the end was a relief. The book was too slow and repetitive with too many plot points going on. I think if you enjoy slow burn thrillers with a nice surprise you will enjoy this book by Mary Kubica. I personally have enjoyed her other novels, but this one was a miss for me this time.

Than you to the publisher, author, and NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest thoughts.

This was a quick and fun read that differs from Kubica’s previous books. There were two different stories unraveling at once, and while I guessed some of the twists early on, there were still some surprises at the end. I always love to read books set in my hometown and there were so many scenes that took place late at night on the streets of Chicago, which were creepy! However, there were some plot holes in the story where I don’t think some characters would have got away with what they did if this was real life. If you can get past that and just enjoy, it’ll be worth it.

Read if you enjoy:
-Domestic suspense
-Serial killer storyline
-Complicated mother/ daughter relationships
-Chicago setting

My jaw dropped and I audibly gasped at the twist. It was not what I expected. At times there was so much going on, that I wasn’t sure who to believe, who to suspect, or how things were connected. There were so many layers and unreliable and untrustworthy characters. The way the layers are slowly pulled back to carefully weave all the storylines together had me riveted and left me shocked.

This book successful weaves multiple dark storylines to culminate with a successful unexpected ending. It is a well written mystery that kept me on the edge of my seat until the end. It begins with Meghan Michaels, a recently divorced ICU nurse, assigned to a critical care suicide patient in a coma from jumping off a bridge. But the question becomes did she or was she pushed? Unable to keep a professional distance, Meghan delves into the patient’s life. The author is a skilled story teller creating this book full of twists and turns.

I want to thank NetGalley, the publisher and the author for the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

I'm obsessed with Mary Kubica's writing! She is able to suck me into her story and I won't stop reading until the book is done! Her twists are always SO well done!!

I've been hooked on this author for the last four years. She is a great thriller/mystery writer. This was a great read. I loved the twist! That girl Caitlin really is sick. The book left me with the same questions Meghan had though. I'm not sure I could have just left the questions unanswered.

If you like slow burn but twisty thrillers this one is for you!!!!!!! Mary Kubica never disappoints with her twists and turns.
