First l'd like to thank NetGalley for another opportunity to reac
The characters were a bit hard to connect at the beginning which usually foreshadows a connection at the end of most stories. Some connections never followed through and I was left a bit stumped. Also some of the story put emphasis on: the day of the week it happened? I didn't follow that at all Towards the end of the book there were a few other twists that felt unnecessary to bring the story together but still had an interesting affect.
Good storyline overall.
I would've loved a bit more detail on Robbie's wife and if who he thought he saw in the courtroom was actually Janie's mom as well.
I was rooting for Vanessa, Robbie, and the Judge.

Eighteen year old Janie is cycling home when she is run over by a van and left for dead. Twenty years later, a pop star is accused of her attempted murder, leaving everyone to wonder what happened and what the truth was.

I enjoyed the suspense in this novel—all was definitely not what it seemed. I also appreciated the twisty plot, the three seemingly disparate characters and was satisfied with how all of the threads tied together at the end. The pace was good and helped by how the story unfolded in flashbacks and the present day.

Readers who enjoy crime fiction and psychological thrillers will likely enjoy this novel.

Many thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and author for providing me with an ARC of this novel. All of the opinions offered in this review are my own.

I really enjoyed this book - the only thing that rubbed me the wrong way was the part relating being raped to being naive, I had a hard time continuing on - but it was a well written and well thought out book and I look forward to the finished version

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. Thank you, NetGalley.

I recognize the merits of this book and its author, but this was just not for me.

Huge thank you for the ARC!

I thought this one would be a win for me based on the cover, title comparisons and the synopsis.,

Unfortunately, this one wasn't for me. I couldn't get interested in the changing characters and was lost on the plot quickly.

Wish this book success!

This is a twisty and suspenseful story of a group of adults dealing with old secrets that refuse to stay buried. It’s a complex tale of betrayal, hidden truths, and shocking revelations that will keep readers hooked from start to finish.

Janie White was about to embark on her adult life when a tragic event changed everything—she was struck by a van and left for dead. The incident, which seemed destined to remain unsolved, haunted her and those close to her for decades. Fast forward twenty years, and the shocking truth emerges when the perpetrator is finally arrested. To everyone's disbelief, the accused is none other than famous singer Robbie Manning.

The story takes another twist as we are introduced to Vanessa Manning, a victim support officer. Vanessa's involvement in the case brings a unique and deeply personal perspective to the narrative. As she struggles to reconcile her duty with the shocking news about her brother, she becomes the moral compass of the story. Her determination to uncover the truth and seek justice for Janie is what drives the plot forward, adding an emotional and ethical layer to the mystery.

As Vanessa delves deeper into the investigation, secrets from the past begin to unravel, exposing the complicated and intertwined relationships between the characters. How was Robbie involved, and why would he do something so terrible? Was he truly guilty, or is there more to the story than meets the eye? The narrative is filled with red herrings and unexpected twists that keep readers guessing, revealing just enough at each turn to build suspense without giving away the final twist.

The characters are richly developed, each with their own flaws and secrets that make them feel real and relatable. Corry’s skillful storytelling keeps the tension high, weaving together the threads of the past and present seamlessly to create a truly engaging and thrilling read.
Corry delivers a story that is both heart-pounding and thought-provoking, ensuring that readers are kept guessing until the very last page.

This was one of those books that I felt excited to read but then quickly that faded. Overall it is a fun idea for a story but I felt that a lot of characters were introduced at once and nothing was really made of all them. Overall a decent read but not one that truly excited me.

I received a free advanced copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This book was difficult to read. It was so full of British slang that I had to guess what the characters were saying at times. I understand the story takes place in an area of England, but there is no way a 69 year old woman is using that much slang in her every day life. It did not feel real at all.

this was a really convoluted story. I am not sure I see the same excitement that the positive reviews did. The characters seemed so flat and one-dimensional, new characters were introduced rapid fire at the very end in order to wrap up some open storylines. The build up seemed okay but everything really fell apart at the end. I really disliked every character, Vanessa was so naive and overly Pollyannish. Robbie was honestly just boring and kind of stupid. The villains were all bad- no redeeming qualities, just the equivalent of a man in a black hat twirling a mustache. I found most of the characters to be irritating, honestly. The title was never explained, as the accident was a wednesday. How many people could possibly be culpable in this accident? This one just wasn't for me.

Sinister, immersive, and addictive!

I Died on a Tuesday is an ominous, compelling novel that takes you into the lives of a handful of people, including the famous pop star Robbie Manning, whose worlds have been irrevocably changed forever by a tragic accident that occurred twenty years prior that left one young woman physically and emotionally scarred for life, and the rest haunted and struggling to survive the inevitable guilt, repercussions and fallout sure to come.

The prose is expressive and charged. The characters, including all the supporting characters, are complex, vulnerable, and conflicted. And the plot is a menacing, intricate tale of life, loss, family, deception, friendship, grief, guilt, denial, secrets, self-preservation, manipulation, coercion, violence, redemption, and survival.

Overall, I Died on a Tuesday is a dark, twisty, gripping tale by Corry that kept me guessing from the very first page and left me chilled, satisfied, impressed, and curious to see what her devious mind might manage to come up with next.

"I Died on a Tuesday" - Your Next Must-Read Thriller

Jane Corry's latest psychological thriller packs a punch. The story? A hit-and-run accident connects three lives: Janie, the victim whose life changed forever; Robbie, a rockstar with dark secrets; and Vanessa, the woman who links them both. Twenty years after the crash, the truth finally starts to surface.

What makes it special? Corry draws from her experience as a prison writer to craft a story that feels authentic and gripping. The plot jumps between past and present, dropping breadcrumbs of mystery that lead to jaw-dropping revelations.

Sure, you'll need to pay attention to keep up with the twists and turns, but the payoff is worth it. With complex characters, shocking surprises, and secrets that refuse to stay buried, this thriller earns its 4.5/5 stars.

I am torn on this book. I really enjoyed the story and the twist on how everyone seemed to feel they were partially responsible for the accident. But I didn’t like how naive the main character was. There was also so many different plots to the story which yes they were needed to tell the story but also it felt like a jumble of things going on. The end kinda felt really rushed into tying it all up. But I would recommend this as a YA novel for sure.

Overall, I enjoyed the story, especially the part until the trial was done. This book touched a lot of topics, second chances, abusive relationship, consequences etc. I felt really sorry about Irena which was the character I liked. I could put up with Jack’s giving up their daughter because it did happen in real life from what I knew, but I couldn't take him as a bad cop.

I liked that most of characters lived in guilt for Janie’s tragedy. If people felt guilty instead of finding excuses or blaming other people for things they’d done wrong or they should’ve done to fix, then there is hope for humanity.

The part after the trial was a bit too much for one book. It seems the author wanted to give readers an explanation of all the Characters, no cliffhangers. But sometime, when we tell a story, I feel, we have to select.

Okay, so like, this one had so much going for it—there was drama, tension, and a lot of deep, emotional stuff to unpack. The whole "different perspectives" thing? Loved that concept. Each character brought their own vibe, and some parts were super compelling, especially when the past started colliding with the present.

There were definitely moments where I was like, “Oh wow, that’s deep,” and a few twists totally caught me off guard. The emotional layers were solid, and I really felt the weight of some of the decisions these characters had to make. Plus, it really made you think about second chances and how people carry their past with them.

That said, it did get a little wild toward the end, and some parts felt a bit too much, like everything was happening at once. And can we talk about how the courtroom scenes felt a little… off? Not sure if it’s just me, but I was side-eyeing hard.

Overall, this was fun! If you’re into twisty, character-driven stories with a bit of chaos, this is worth checking out! It didn’t totally land for me, but there were some moments that definitely hit emotionally, and I still enjoyed the ride.

Huge thanks to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest opinion! 🌟🌟🌟

I Died on a Tuesday is a weird book title here. That aside, this was a pretty straightforward account of a hit and run. There are a lot of other things thrown in that just bogged down the flow of the book. But the plot itself was pretty easy to follow. I usually give a lot of thought to books in the day/days after I read them before giving a review. There isn’t anything to think about here.

stars Kindle Copy for Review from NetGalley Penguin Random House Canada and Doubleday Canada..

I received a free, advance copy of this book and this is my unbiased and voluntary review.

A tragedy occurs when an eighteen year old girl is trucked and killed by a white van. Tweenty years kater a rock starid visited by the police at his home. He is charged with attempted murder. Yjis could ruin his marriage and the life he leads. No one believes him or should they? IWhat really happen that night and what is the real story? Did he had something to do with the eighteen year old death or not? It’s a case oto ponder.

Ugh I had hopes for this book since I have enjoyed previous titles by this author.

I felt it started off interesting enough and kept me hooked but somewhere along the way it started getting messy the story wise & introductions of more characters. There really wasn’t any big plot twists happening like I expected there to be.

I’m not sure why how the title is supposed to tie into the story. There were characters I felt weren’t necessarily required. This book could’ve been shorter and still wrapped up the way it did.

There’s no pondering and rehashing what I read to think about the plot twist or what just happened in the book because it just kinda fell the second half.

Unfortunately this book was a miss for me. I really was hoping for more.

Thank you NetGalley and Penguin Random House Canada for this opportunity to read this advanced copy. Do

Interesting storyline although at limes, it felt a bit disjointed. Woud have enjoyed it more if the parts came together more seamlessly.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

First off thank you to NetGalley and Penguin Random House for the ARC.

This mystery/ thriller surrounding 3 characters and their seemingly interconnected world was an interesting, wild ride with many sub plots. Got a little long there, took a hot minute to realize how it all panned out and intertwined.

3/5 ⭐️

4.5 Stars. This was mainly a compelling, fast-paced, easy-to-read story with intriguing characters. For most of the book, I was engaged and had no idea where it was going or where it would end up. Unfortunately, the last part of the book was convoluted, muddled, and rushed. The author seemed to keep adding unnecessary new twists, theories, information, and subplots. There were loose ends. For example, a mix-up of days was hinted at but went nowhere.

Janie White, age eighteen, had been in a tragic accident 20 years earlier. She was heading for a bright future. She was accepted as an editorial assistant in London. Her mother suffered from emotional problems and disappeared. Her father insisted she committed suicide. Janine did not accept this and hoped to find her alive and well. She had been cycling home from the beach, and a large white van smashed into her. She was left alone on the side of the road. Her heart stopped but was restarted by medics, and she spent months in a coma with life-altering injuries. We meet her again twenty years later. She is in a wheelchair, has suffered multiple strokes, and is partially paralyzed. Janie never regained the ability to speak; she lost a leg, and her memory is unstable. She is to testify in court against the driver who hit her. Instead of talking, she has learned to sing her responses. She can type with one finger on an iPad. Once a pretty girl, her present appearance is a shock. She is starting to remember the accident.

Robbie Manning is a famous, beloved pop singer who also writes lyrics. He was part of a band, and his bandmates were with him in the van when Janie was crushed on impact. Robbie has been arrested, something he had been expecting for the two decades since the accident. He is accused of leaving the scene and persuading his bandmates to do so. After the band dissolved,, he became even more successful as a solo artist. He is wealthy and lives in luxury with his wife and two children. He is regarded as a loving, steady family man. While in prison, facing trial, he receives plenty of hostility from the guards and inmates and is despised by his former fans.

Vanessa, age 69, is a retired store detective. We read about an incident where she caught a female shoplifter. This woman becomes a vital character many years later. Vanessa now works as a witness support officer. She offers support and encouragement for witnesses and those going to trial. She is a deeply unhappy person. There is a great emptiness in her life. After a fall, she miscarried and was not allowed to see her dead daughter, and there were no more children. She misses her late husband and often speaks to him. He was over-protective and controlling, to which she was oblivious. She does not fit in with her peers, who discuss their children and grandchildren. Her husband was a police officer who found the badly injured Janie. She is now pleased to be supporting Janie in court. She has a platonic relationship with the judge, a secretly troubled character. These flawed characters become intertwined in the case of Janie versus Robbie. There are some vile characters, namely Jacob and Lewis. Do they get the punishment they deserve? What happens in Vanessa's life is fascinating, but not entirely in a good way.

This is a story of lies, deceit, secrets, truths unsaid, blame, guilty consciousness, blackmail, embezzlement, and threats to individuals and their families. Thanks to NetGalley and Penguin Random House Canada for the much-appreciated advance copy.
