I couldn’t read this book fast enough! There are so many mysteries on top of other mysteries it’s hard to imagine what will happen next. The author has the ability to make you believe you’re right there in the middle of the action. The story is set in Chicago and a killer is on the loose. Meghan walks alone to and from her job as an ICU nurse and that adds to the suspense. I think anyone who likes a good psychological thriller will like this book. I received an arc of this book from NetGalley and the publisher. All opinions expressed are my own.

I love Kubica and normally cruise through her books but this one was a slow start for me. It didnt feel as original as her previous work,

Mary Kubica knows how to tell a story and this was a great one that gripped me from page 1 of the prologue. Chicago can be a dangerous place and Meghan knows just that. All Meghan wants to do is keep her daughter safe and take care of the patients at her job as an ICU nurse, but with a serial assaulter terrorizing the city can she do that? I am always making guesses while I’m reading and only got one of my several guesses correct, this book gripped me and wouldn’t let me go. Thank you netgalley for the arc, I will definitely be grabbing my own copy in April.

Meghan is an ICU nurse who is trying to get the hang of being a single mom to a teenage daughter. Caitlin is a new patient that comes into the unit, and Meghan starts to have questions about what happened to her.
The book was a little slow at first, but then I started really enjoyed myself. I always love when the pieces start getting put together!

Overall, I was captivated from the beginning with so many questions because I was hooked!

Spoilers!!

Who is in charge of these secret attacks? Who is Nat? Why did she jump? Will they get back together?

In the end, I did not see the major shocking plot reveals! There was twice where I thought I had it figured out but I didn’t.

I would have given it five stars, however, some of the foreshadowing was not so subtle: “I’m not thinking about what’s been happening to women in the city …”

Lastly, I was surprised by a couple of spelling/typos.

Overall, plot gets a solid 4 stars though! Wouldn’t have guessed it!

I can not stress enough that you need to add this book to your TBR. I am a big fan of Mary Kubica but did not love her latest novel. I was nervous about this book, but I am happy to report that it was TWISTY and fantastic.

Three plots intersect in this novel and make your jaw hit the floor. I truly couldn't figure out how the three storylines were connected but that truly were.

I do have some questions about how this story ended up but I may never have answers...

Whew! This is her best one since Local Woman Missing. It was dark, twisty and exactly what I was hoping for. Highly recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4.5/5- I received an e-ARC from @netgalley for my review; a HUGE thanks to them, Park Row, and @marykubica !!
📖 A single mother and ICU nurse, Megan, is treating a woman who supposedly jumped from a bridge… or did she? A witness says she was pushed. Everyone has secrets- Megan, the patient, her family, & Megan’s daughter.
⭐️ PRO: this author! I have loved pretty much everything she’s written and this was no exception. It was a quick read, but an absolute page-turner.
⭐️ PRO: I was a little confused with the back and forth at first but it ends up all making sense. The build up was exciting and the TWIST was perfect.
☹️ CON: a lot of street names, subway names and directionals that would probably make perfect sense to someone who lives in Chicago. But for me, going left on such street, getting the L train to such stop, turning onto that street… it just flew right over my head.
📖 Expected publication date April 2, 2024

Mary Kubica is one of the queens of plot twist. Her books are always a fast paced, train ride I am sad to get off. 4 stars for She's Not Sorry!

Meghan Michaels faces the challenges of being a single mom while working full time as an ICU nurse. One day at the hospital, a patient named Caitlin arrives in a coma after a harrowing fall from a bridge. The incident is initially seen as a traumatic brain injury, but when a witness reveals shocking details, everything is thrown into doubt. Was Caitlin pushed, and if so, by whom and for what reason?

Meghan, usually adept at keeping emotional distance, finds herself drawn into Caitlin's story. As she becomes entwined with Caitlin and her family, Meghan realizes she's in too deep. The mystery surrounding Caitlin's fall becomes more complex, and Meghan fears that she and her daughter might be the next targets.

This chilling thriller crafts a tale that blurs the lines between duty and personal involvement. Meghan's struggle to maintain detachment takes a dark turn as she delves into the unsettling details of Caitlin's past. The author weaves suspense and intrigue, keeping readers on edge as Meghan discovers the ominous connections that put her and her daughter in jeopardy.

This book is not just a medical drama; it's a gripping exploration of how the past can resurface with chilling consequences. The characters, particularly Meghan, are relatable, and the author skillfully builds tension, making it a compelling read for those who enjoy mysteries with a psychological edge.

As the mystery unravels, readers are taken on a suspenseful journey, and the twists and turns keep them guessing until the final pages. The author's ability to create a sense of impending danger adds to the intensity of the narrative. This is a riveting thriller that skillfully combines the complexities of personal relationships with the dark undercurrents of a mysterious past.

I just reviewed She's Not Sorry by Mary Kubica. #ShesNotSorry #NetGalley

4.5 stars rounded up.

I read this in one day, I loved it! Every part of this book was a twist. Nothing too wild but definitely kept me reading to see how each would turn out. I didn’t love the situation that happened at work - I’m not sure I believed it. However, the rest of it? Great turns in the story that I didn’t see coming.

Definitely a great book.

Advanced reader copy thanks to NetGalley & Harlequin Trade Publishing.

Wow, I wasn’t expecting that twist AT ALL!! What a wild ride that took me on!!! All this time I was suspicious of the wrong person all along.. I kept thinking back to see if there was anything that gave it away, but Mary Kubica is so good at shocking us!!! Definitely a must read!!!

Thank you NetGalley and Harlequin Publishing for an advance copy in exchange for my honest review!

I really liked this one. At first, I thought it was going to be a medical thriller, but the medical part of it was more background noise thank anything else. I have to admit, I did not see the twist coming. Afterward, I tried to think back if there were any clues, and there weren’t. The changing timelines made it next to impossible to anticipate what was really going on. The thing is that I didn’t even realize I was reading different timelines! At the heart of it, this novel is about obsession. Everyone in this story had an unhealthy obsession with something! These obsessions anmong all of the characters magically put Meghan in the predicament she was in. I did know who the man attacking women was right away. Once his character was introduced, I just knew it. It again, it was a great ending and a twist that shocked me for sure!

Huge thanks to Harlequin Trade Publishing and NetGalley for sending me this ARC for review! All of my reviews are given honestly!

This was a wild ride! I admit, I haven’t read that many thrillers, but I can say that this one kept me on my toes! I wanted to keep reading to figure out what happened and was surprised many times along the way! A fast-paced unpredictable thriller!

Wow… this was SO GOOD. I definitely got thrown through a loop a few times and never saw the connection with Caitlin and Meghan coming. Throughout the entire book I kept trying to guess at what was coming next and found myself reading faster just so I could find out. Looks like after this book I’ll be going on a Mary Kubica binge lol

It was a bit slow for me but overall a good story! Great character building. Great for readers that love a slow burn.

If you loved Local Woman Missing or Just the Nicest Couple, you will LOVE She's Not Sorry!

This was so difficult to put down and I finished it in two days! There's a a slower start (but so necessary to build the characters and storylines that become so important later on) but once it picks up the pace, you literally will not be able to stop reading!

The characters, plot, and pacing (despite the slower start) are perfect. It's reminiscent of Kubica's other writing, which I absolutely love. She has a clear style and is an auto-buy author for me!

This had multiple plot twists I NEVER figured out and so many red herrings along the way, which make for such a fun read!

This would be such an amazing book club pick with so much depth and possibility for discussion.

This will definitely be one of the thrillers of 2024!

A strong outing from Kubica- my favorite from her yet, in fact! I can’t wait to recommend this one. Full of twists and a relentless pace, this is an excellent thriller.

Thanks NetGalley for the ARC!

Mary Kubica always delivers. This read was twisty and unpredictable, I couldn’t put this book down, but I struggled to like the characters, This read had lots of surprises. Be forewarned there are many heavy topics.

I finished this book with the thought of “what did I just read?!” This book has twists and turns, on top of its twists and turns. The way it’s all laid out is so smart, and as more things are revealed, it makes my mind race back to earlier parts of the book and seeing how they all connect. I do still have some questions about certain characters and events that happened- but I don’t want to say anymore and give anything away. The beginning was a bit slow, but I’m so glad I stuck with it.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review!
