She’s Not Sorry is a sharp, atmospheric, and addictive read that solidifies Mary Kubica as one of the best in the genre. Highly recommended for fans of twisty, character-driven thrillers.

Well woven story with twists and turns that keep the reader guessing ! Read it in one sitting. Definite must-read! Enjoyed it thoroughly.

She Is Not Sorry starts off with a slow and steady build that takes its time developing the characters and setting the stage. While the first three quarters moved a bit slower than I expected, the final stretch picks up quickly with plenty of tension and reveals. Although the ending was somewhat predictable, I still found myself turning the pages late into the night. Mary Kubica knows how to keep a reader hooked, even when the pace shifts.
Thanks NetGalley, Harlequin Trade Publishing, and the author for the advanced copy of this book.

She’s Not Sorry had me hooked from the very first page—it was full of suspense and unexpected turns. I loved how the story slowly unraveled, keeping me guessing about everyone’s motives and what really happened. The characters felt layered and real, especially the nurse, who was caught in the middle of it all. It was a fast-paced, gripping read that I couldn’t stop thinking about even after I finished.

I really enjoyed this book. It was very fast paced. There were tons of cliffhanger type endings. The writing is as always wonderful. It is easy to follow and easy to enjoy

I found this book to be terrifying. There was such a sense of dread and waiting for jump scares that I had a hard time reading it at night. But I am a big scaredy cat. I did guess the one twist but there were others that happened that I did not guess.

Another well written book by Kubica. It’s hard to put this down and the story kept wanting me to know more - recommended

I am a huge Mary Kubica fan. She's Not Sorry is a slow burn, laying the foundation for the twisty turns that are classic Kubica. Atmospheric, midnight strolls through unsavory neighborhoods in the heart of a Chicago winter bring the reader chills by proxy! Anxiety is her constant companion as our protagonist prowls the streets, searching for answers. Tension builds until that magical moment when all the pieces come together for the reader when all is revealed. Suspenseful and satisfying, what more can we ask? I can't wait for Kubica's next wild ride!

This was the perfect fast paced thriller. Mary Kubicas writing flows seamlessly and effortlessly, keeping you hooked and her twists always catch you off guard. I highly Recommend this and everything she writes!

She's Not Sorry by Mary Kubica was a great suspenseful thriller. The story is told in two parts. Part 1 started slow as you learned the characters and some of their struggles, but Part 2 was really where the story picked up. There are twists you won't see coming and untrustworthy characters everywhere you look. I definitely recommend this for a good mystery to read this summer!

Highly recommend this thriller!!! Grips you throughout and keeps you guessing until the very end. Suggested for our book club and it was a crowd pleaser. Definitely earned this five-star rating!
Thank you Mary Kubica, Harlequin Trade Publishing and NetGalley for this ARC opportunity!

I’ve read almost every book from Mary Kubica, and is one of my favorite thriller authors.
I love that I never figured out what was going to happen next, an all the twists and turns were super exciting.

She's Not Sorry is a gripping psychological thriller that pulls you in from the very first page and doesn't let go. Mary Kubica delivers a suspenseful, emotionally layered story centered around a nurse, Meghan, who gets drawn into the mystery behind a comatose patient found at the base of a bridge.
The hospital setting adds an extra layer of tension, and Kubica does a great job weaving together Meghan’s personal struggles as a single mother with the unraveling secrets of the patient’s past. As Meghan digs deeper, what she uncovers is far from what anyone expected.
What I loved most is how Kubica keeps you guessing. Just when you think you know what’s going on, she throws in another twist. The pacing is fast without feeling rushed, and the characters feel real and flawed in all the right ways.
While some plot elements require a bit of suspension of disbelief, the emotional stakes and psychological tension make up for it. If you enjoy thrillers with strong female leads and unexpected twists, this one is worth adding to your TBR.

A sharp, emotionally charged thriller about a nurse who becomes entangled in a mystery after one of her comatose patients starts to show signs of trauma. With tight pacing and Kubica’s signature slow-burn reveals, this one questions how well we know the people we care for — or ourselves.

This was not a book for me. I think for the right audience it would be a really good read bf phenomenal thriller just not me in particular.

This book was so good!
I generally read all of Kubica’s books, so I knew I would pick this one up. In this one, we are following an ICU nurse as she takes care of a patient who jumped from the rails of the L train. As the story develops, we discover that it might be as straightforward as it sounds.
There was a beautiful twist at the end of part one that made me gasp out loud, and as the story continued, Kubica gave us a couple more surprises. There was one twist that I saw coming, but it didn’t take away from the reading experience. I really enjoyed this one!

Thank you for allowing me to read this book early. I enjoyed this story and found it hard to put down. It started slow but then got twisty! I did want more at the end. I have a few questions. Overall a good thrilling read.

Mary Kubica does it again. I’ve read every one of her books and She’s Not Sorry reminded me exactly why I keep coming back—tense, twisty, and full of emotional depth. This one follows Meghan, a hospital nurse who gets pulled into the mystery surrounding a young woman who may or may not have jumped from a bridge. What starts as quiet concern slowly unravels into something darker and more dangerous, and Kubica builds the suspense with such a careful, steady hand.
I loved how layered this story was—not just the mystery itself, but the way Meghan’s personal life and past traumas wove into the main plot. There’s a constant undercurrent of dread, the kind that makes you question every character’s motives, including the narrator’s. And true to form, there were reveals I did not see coming.
This isn’t just a page-turner—it’s a smart, emotionally rich thriller that makes you think about guilt, forgiveness, and how far people will go to protect the ones they love. Kubica fans will not be disappointed.
Thank you to NetGalley and Park Row Books for the advanced copy!

Mary Kubica excels in writing unreliable narrators and this book is no exception. This was a fast-paced thriller as secrets slowly unravel - a twist I did not see coming!
