A tragedy involving a popstar and how an accident can affect the guilty party for the rest of their lives. Very interesting.

Thank you to NetGalley for this eARC gifted in exchange for my honest review.

I Died on a Tuesday had an intriguing premise, but ultimately, I found it to be a bit of a mixed bag. The story opens with a gripping tragedy—a young woman, Janie, on the brink of a new life, is run down by a van and left for dead. The twist comes 20 years later when pop superstar Robbie Manning is arrested for the crime. The way the story flips between Janie’s past and the present-day fallout kept me hooked for a while.

I appreciated the complex layers of the narrative, particularly how the book weaves together three different perspectives on that fateful day. It’s an interesting format that made me question who to trust, and I loved the mystery of uncovering what really happened. However, there were parts that dragged, especially when the focus shifted too much onto Robbie’s celebrity status rather than pushing forward the central mystery.

The pacing was a little uneven too. While the first half had me on the edge of my seat, the second half slowed down a bit, leaving me feeling detached from Janie’s emotional journey. The reveal at the end wasn’t as impactful as I’d hoped, partly because I wasn’t as connected to the characters as I wanted to be.

Overall, I Died on a Tuesday had a lot of promise, but it fell a little flat for me. The premise was solid, and the writing kept me turning pages, but I was left wanting more depth and a stronger emotional connection to the characters. If you like a mystery that explores multiple perspectives, you might enjoy it, but it didn’t quite live up to my expectations.

This is the second book I’ve read by this author and because it was so highly recommended I wanted to give it a go. Great story line but I just had a hard time getting into it and connecting with the characters.

I Died on a Tuesday by Jane Corry is a compelling psychological thriller that blends suspense with an emotional exploration of life, death, and second chances. Corry masterfully creates tension, using an intriguing premise that keeps you guessing as secrets unravel and unexpected connections come to light.

The characters are complex and flawed, adding emotional weight to the mystery. While some plot twists feel a bit predictable and the pacing slows in places, the overall narrative remains engaging, with moments of real emotional impact.

Thank you to Netgalley and the Publisher for this Advanced Readers Copy of I DIed on a Tuesday by Jane Corry!

I love a good "full of twists and secrets" book, and I Died on a Tuesday has them in spades. Multiple POVs, secrets held for many years, and a mystery analyzed from many perspectives. I was hooked through the first 2/3 of the book.

Unfortunately, towards the end, I felt like there was a bit too much going on, and too many red herrings being thrown into the mix.

Recommend this to readers who like stories about the effects of long-held secrets being exposed.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Penguin Random House Canada for offering me an eARC, in exchange for my honest review. A solid 3.5 out of 5 stars.

I Died on a Tuesday is a fantastic read! I truly enjoyed the characters and their development as the story progressed. Without posting spoilers, I'll just say that I enjoyed the way everyone is linked together in some way, even when it seems that they're not. This dynamic provided a very exciting and addictive story line that will leave you thinking!

TOO MANY CHARACTERS. It was so hard to follow along and know who was who especially when you are anticipating someone must change their name at some point. I liked the start of the story but honestly the end fell flat for me and I was a bit disappointed. There wasn't anything that really struck me as shocking, even Jack was dead and his past behaviour didn't surprise me at all. I didn't hate it, but liked her last book much more! Thank you to NetGalley, Jane Corry and Penguin Publishing for the Advanced Readers Copy.

Great tale of hope and lies. Janie is hit by a van while riding home and left for dead. A horrible unsolved hit n run evolves. But the guilty parties are haunted by the guilt or their deeds as are others - of crimes covered by time. A revealing story of what lies can do to your life.

I received an ARC of this novel from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

There are lots of twists in this whodunit.

Could not finish.
I tried several times to pick it up and continue reading, and then I’d remember that all the characters were awful, and the book made me feel awful and anxious reading it.

I think the story was a really interesting idea, and I was invested enough to want to know how it ends, but Vanessa’s storyline in particular made me so sad for her naivety and overall situation, and I finally just decided this book is not for me. I don’t mind a thriller or a mystery, but there has to be at least one character that I want to root for.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the advanced reading copy.

Gripping from the first page! Multiple points of view but they work really well and ultimately come together to give a finale trip the story that ties things up for each. I fully wasn't expecting to enjoy this book nearly as much as I did, and actually put off reading it and then it became a memorable 5 star!

An intriguing proposition: What is the truth? How are the lives of a famous rockstar and a woman who can no longer speak connected? What about Vanessa, a retired store detective, where does she fit in?

This story is a LOT of twisting and turning, sometimes it can be too much to keep up with. Right until the very end truths are being revealed in the complex narrative that Corry has written about Janie and the life she lives after the day she died.

I loved the multi-POV approach, I loved some of the characters. I loved how Corry addresses what emotion can contribute to how we make choices in life. I just didn't love how much was going on, and how long the story went on for.

There was a great, natural place to end this, and then there is what continued. Not a bad read, and I think with some editing down, this could have been great.

Thank you to NetGalley and Penguin for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.

This story unravelled through the multiple POVs of Robbie, Janie, and Vanessa with rich subplots that came together in the end. Although this is a longer book, it held my interest throughout. The characters were flawed but redeemable, and I enjoyed the pacing. I highly recommend this one for fans of crime suspense and crime thrillers.

If this wasn't so short, I wouldn't have finished it. Conceptually, it was there! 3 POVs, different timelines, a mystery - yes. Execution was not it. I was incredibly frustrated, but being an advance copy sometimes you gotta power through.

Unfortunately I was unable to download this book before the archive date, but I look forward to reading and reviewing other books by this author in the future.

Wow! This book has so many twists and turns. The story follows a variety of people - both criminals and victims. It all starts with one fateful day that comes back to change the lives of all involved. It also pulls in other people that weren’t initially part of the event. This is definitely a page turner with a lot of moving parts!

While reading I was also listening to the audiobook. The characters and multiple POV’s was well done in the way they all eventually connected, woven together in one way or another. Because of the multiple characters there was sooooo much going on, good and bad. I feel like if it wasn’t for the audiobook and all the different amazing narrators I would have gotten confused at times.

I was captivated and pulled in from the beginning… but not at the end. I feel like the story should have ended a little after the verdict in Janie’s hit and run case. That ending would have been perfect and a five star read.

When the story continued after the verdict, I felt it went too long to the point where the author threw sooooo much unnecessary and wild storyline endings for the characters. That made this ending not as pleasant as it could have been. That was disappointing to me.

Thank you to NetGalley and Penguin Random House for a ARC of this book. Sadly this book was not for me and I had to DNF. I gave it a go multiple times and just couldn't get into it. There was so much going on in this book....multiple everything...storylines, viewpoints...just everything. And it was sooooo slow. I still have my favorites from this author but this one wasn't for me.

I thought the first half of this Jane Corry story was good. I was all in. The plot was creative and the points of view were almost bizarre. Unfortunately I felt that the last section of the book was too confusing and busy and that it all didn't fit. It was like the author wanted to add everything she could think of.

Thanks for the opportunity!
