DNF @ 25%. Couldn't get into this at all. Thanks to NetGalley & Harlequin Trade Publishing for an advance copy.

She's Not Sorry had a slow start, but definitely picked up by the end. Added to my list of Kubica favs for sure. A lot of twists I did not see coming, so I felt it was a perfectly executed thriller!

Thank you to Netgalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing for this ARC in exchange for my unbiased review!

Another twisty ride from a favourite author. This is a slow burn where we learn bit by bit how the characters are connected (or not), with an ending that will leave you feeling vindication for our protagonist.

I’m not sorry for reading this great book.

This was the perfect book for spring break. I could not put it down. I was a bundle of nerves waiting on the other shoe to drop. I didn’t know who to trust and I did not see the twist coming. I’m still kinda wondering how the ex husband didn’t see the news about his girlfriend falling off a bridge. Also felt the note writing from the daughter was bizarre. Having 3 teens, that just doesn’t sound like something they would do. Just my little nuggets.
I loved the book and enjoyed getting swept up in the drama. I will definitely be picking up more of her novels.
Thanks so much for the advanced copy!

I love this author. I just wasn't completely feeling this book. It starts out slow and then it gets twisty. I just wasn't in the right mindset for it.

I usually enjoy Kubica's books very much, but this one just aggravated me. I believe it was the main character because I had trouble feeling sympathy for her.
Megan Michaels is a lot. She is a critical care nurse who is recently divorced. She gets way too close to one of patients, a woman named Caitlin Beckett, who supposedly jumped from the train bridge. But did she jump or was she pushed? I thought the "villain" in this story was a bit too predictable but I will admit I didn't see the twist coming. So there is that. Solid 3.5 but I'm probably in the minority. It was, of course, well-written and the story flowed easily. I just wasn't into it.

Get ready for an adrenaline-fueled ride with Mary Kubica's latest page-turner, SHE'S NOT SORRY! After the mixed reception of her previous work, Kubica returns with a gripping tale that will keep you hooked from start to finish. Meet Meghan, a 40-year-old ICU nurse whose life becomes intertwined with that of her patient, Caitlin, who lies comatose after a harrowing fall. Unable to distance herself emotionally, Meghan finds herself drawn deeper into Caitlin's world, all while navigating her own challenges of divorce and single parenthood.

SHE'S NOT SORRY is a rollercoaster of suspense, with twists and turns that will leave you breathless. While some may label it a slow burn, I found it to be a relentless psychological thriller that never lets up on the tension. From the moment the police become involved in Caitlin's case, Meghan's existence is consumed by the mystery, leading to a riveting climax that will leave you reeling.

Without giving anything away, let me just say that the ending is as satisfying as it is unexpected. Mary Kubica once again proves her mastery of the genre, delivering a gripping narrative that will leave readers hungry for more. Brace yourself for a wild ride—SHE'S NOT SORRY is not to be missed!

Meghan is an ICU nurse and can't help finding herself wrapped up in the life of a new patient - a woman who jumped from a bridge and survived. But soon, the police are involved - did the patient jump or was she pushed? And why is Meghan allowing herself to become so involved with this patient?

I haven't read a book by Mary Kubica in quite some time, but this one pulled me in quickly and kept me turning the pages. I will say I was surprised by one of the twists, though I guessed another early on. I didn't always agree with Meghan's choices (there was a lot of "girl, WHAT are you DOING") but I definitely couldn't put this one down.

She’s Not Sorry by Mary Kubica is another suspenseful thriller by this extremely talented author. This is a slow burn but when it picks up, holy moly it picks up! This is an intense story that has multiple deep and very dark stories mixed together for one very well written book. You will be on a very wild ride with many twist and turns that will have your jaw dropping to the floor many times. Ms. Kubica’s plots are well thought and will not disappoint. There are a few triggers written into this one but they are well written and thought out well. The characters are so good and well developed. This author is a must read for me and she left me speechless! I highly recommend this one, it will not disappoint!!

Thank you NetGalley, Harlequin Trade Publishing, Park Row and Mary Kubica for another spine tingling book to read and review. The opinions expressed are strictly my own.

3.5 stars.

This was the third (I believe) book I've read by Kubica and it was my favorite. That being said, I have mixed feelings about it. For starters, I had some trouble getting into the book. I would say it started off as more of a slow burn mystery. The book focuses on a single mother/ICU nurse who is caring for an unidentified female patient who is comatose after falling off of a bridge. Questions begin to arise about this patient, such as Who is she? and Did she jump, or was she pushed, off the bridge? A second layer of the story is that there is also a serial rapist on the loose in Chicago, where the novel is set.

I felt that these two story lines were too convoluted and unbelievable. It would have made more sense if the book focused on just one of them. Also, I predicted early on who the rapist would be. The pace definitely picked up during the second half of the book, so that was a bonus, but then the ending felt rushed.

Thank you to Harlequin Trade Publishing, NetGalley, and the author for an advanced copy of this book to review.

Mary Kubica's newest book, She's Not Sorry, is her thriller and it is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat! Filled with twists and turns that leave you guessing and wanting more, it's creepy hospital setting and unreliable characters leave readers with a sense of dread, yet deep desire to keep reading. I really enjoyed this book! It might be my favorite Mary Kubica book yet!

When I tell you my jaw dropped at the end of part one of this book, I mean it quite literally, even though I was in public. I'm a Mary Kubica completionist- I've read all of her books so far- and I can say that this is definitely my new favorite. She's Not Sorry starts pretty subtly, but readers who are wondering what the hype is in the early chapters just need to hold on until Kubica starts clicking all the pieces into place. The writing in this is well paced, and the plot is pretty tight within a book that isn't overly long- and I appreciated that while the ending is satisfying, there is just enough room to wonder what the future holds for the characters. The characters are interesting, and Meghan is a relatable main character with very human complexity. Her relationship with her daughter and the complications of parenting alongside the other issues in the story were excellent. If you're new to the author, this is a great place to start!

3.5 stars, rounded up. I thought the writing was perfect for a thriller, the story kept my interest, and the twists were nice and twisty…but something about this story didn’t quite work for me. Sienna’s character felt one dimensional and her whole storyline didn’t work for me. I know 16-year-olds are moody and unpredictable, but her character didn’t make any sense. There wasn’t resolution on some of the plot points, which happens in thrillers, but it left me with lingering questions. All in all, it was an enjoyable, entertaining read. Just don’t think too hard about any of it.

Thanks to NetGalley for early access!

POPCORN THRILLER ALERT! Mary Kubica is back and better than ever with her fast-paced psychological thriller, SHE'S NOT SORRY! I know readers were polarized in her last book, but if you don't enjoy this one, I will question your reading tastes. This story is centered around 40-year old Meghan—an ICU nurse who is taking care of a patient, Caitlin, who fell off a bridge. Caitlin is in a coma and suffering from traumatic brain injury and Meghan is emotionally connecting with her situation and unable to compartmentalize. Meghan has her own life struggles between a divorce and raising her teenage daughter, but when police get involved in Caitlin's case, Meghan's life becomes consumed by Caitlin.

SHE'S NOT SORRY has a lot going on, but ultimately packs a punch that readers will dive right into. I read this book in two sittings! I see people calling this one a slow burn, but I think it's actually a suspense-driven psychological thriller. SHE'S NOT SORRY has suspense from all angles, so don't think you're going to escape the danger of the situation at hand. I was pleasantly surprised how the ending turns out. SORRY, I'M NOT SORRY FOR NOT SPOILING THE TWISTS. Mary Kubica continues to deliver and readers will surely eat this book up!

Megan is a single mom trying to balance it all. She an overworked ICU nurse and when she gets assigned the patient Caitlin, she knows her abilities will be tested.

Caitlin has a traumatic head injury. She jumped from a bridge…or did she. New evidence has been brought forward and Caitlin just might have been pushed.

I will be honest, there were places in this book where I found Meghan a bit naive and stupid. I even rolled my eyes a time or two. I kept reading thinking it would change and some of the mundaneness of this tale would fall away and I would see some action. And when I hit over half way through…I cussed a blue streak…I did not see the twist coming. And I should have, I know this author does this! What a fabulous set up! So, in other words…don’t give up!

This story takes you on a wild ride of trust! As a reader, you have no idea who to trust in this tale. Everyone is a suspect!

Need a good thriller with a huge twist…THIS IS IT! Grab your copy today.


I received this novel from the publisher for a honest review.

Well, this one took me less than a day to binge.

I was drowning in romance and needed a thriller in my life and I’m glad I picked this one up.

You know those thrillers that you think you have all figured out? Then something happens and you change your mind. And then another character does something sketchy and you’re like “hmmm maybe it’s them?” And then the cycle starts all over? Yep. This is one of those. It’ll keep you guessing the entire time. The twists were great and unexpected. Definitely one I couldn’t put down because I needed answers.

This was my first Mary Kubica and definitely won’t be my last.

Meghan is an ICU nurse who has been tasked with monitoring a patient who has attempted suicide. When police confirm that a witness saw someone push her patient rather than her jump, Meghan finds herself getting more emotionally involved than she should. I'm not saying any more than this except to READ THE BOOK! I was invested throughout the whole story, loved the short chapters and was shocked at all the twists that we were hit with towards the end. Simply brilliant!

I'm giving all the stars to this deliciously deceptive new release from the brilliant Mary Kubica. Many other readers have shared thoughtful and eloquent 4- and 5-star reviews. Why do I love this book? It has to do with the title. Who is SHE? Here are five possible candidates:
? Meghan Michaels - ICU nurse
? Caitlyn Beckett - comatose with a sketchy past
? Sienna Michaels - sixteen and hiding secrets from mom
? Amelia Beckett - estranged mother of Caitlyn
? Natalie Cohen - Meghan's long lost high school friend
Do they all have reasons to be sorry/not sorry? Don't read too much about this one. Just jump in with both feet and enjoy the ride.

Thank you to Harlequin and NetGalley for a DRC in exchange for an honest review.

4.5 ⭐️

First off thank you NetGalley for this ARC!
This book grabbed me pretty quickly, once I hit the 25% mark I literally did not put it down and I read into the wee hours of the night because I had to know what happened next!

I had suspected a couple of the plot points in the book, but they ended up being far more intricate than I predicted!
Overall this book had me hooked, and I enjoyed the read. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a gripping suspense!!

Honestly, this let me down. I saw every twist coming and felt a little bored with it....

When a patient named Caitlin arrives in a coma, Meghan, an ICU nurse, is assigned to care for her. Soon a witness comes forward saying that they think Caitlin might have been pushed. At the same time, there are vicious crimes happening all over the city of Chicago, and they are getting closer and closer to where Meghan lives. Meghan is trying to protect her daughter, but soon finds herself drawn into something much more sinister than she imagined.

SHE'S NOT SORRY had too much going on and was the slowest of slow burns. I felt like so much book was Megan's paranoia and no real action. That doesn't usually bother me but I don't know. It just didn't hit. I still love your books Mary Kubica though!!!
