5/5 ⭐️
If you love psychological thrillers, this book is for you!! There’s so many different plot twists, you’ll find yourself coming up with different theories. Definitely one of the best books I’ve read this year, I loved it!
This book is told from an ER nurse point of view. It starts off with a prologue and then continues with her treating an icu patient named Caitlin who jumped off a bridge.
Theres 2 stories in this book. The first one being the mystery of what happened to Caitlin and the second one with a killer going around targeting women.

"She's Not Sorry" is my favorite Mary Kubica read so far. The story is compelling with a high adrenaline atmosphere that will have you looking over your shoulder. The characters and back stories were engaging as well as the family dynamics. Highly recommended for mystery/suspense fans. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. #ShesNotSorry #NetGalley

Short synopsis: Meghan Michaels is an ER nurse and recently divorced mother whose life quickly changes when a new patient is brought to the hospital in a coma after suffering from a TBI.
Meghan has always done a great job staying out of her patients' personal lives up until now.
Thoughts: This was a quick and fun read that differs from Kubica's previous books. There were two different stories unraveling at once, and while I guessed some of the twists early on, there were still some surprises at the end. I always love when thrillers take place in a medical setting and this was no exception. There were also a lot of scenes that took place late at night on the streets of Chicago, which were creepy! However, there were some plot holes in the story that if this was occurring in real life, don't think some characters would have got away with what she did. If you turn a blind eye to that and just enjoy, it'll be worth it... however I am over here still contemplating.

Mary Kubica does it again! Started out as a slow burn, but boy, did it reel me in quickly! I was surprised by several twists and ultimately loved it all from start to finish. I definitely recommend this book - give it a try!

I have loved every single Mary Kubica book that she has written and "She's Not Sorry" is another winner! Great read!

Thanks @netgalley and @harlequinbooks for read number 126 of 2023: Mary Kubica’s newest book to be released in April 2024. Please note that my ARC was provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I’m struggling a bit with this review. Kubica is one of my favourite authors, and usually her books are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reads for me. I wasn’t really sure where this book was going at first, and it dragged for a bit in the first half. The best twist happens half-way through the book, and it made the second half of the book far more exciting. While I anticipated the final twist, I like how we were left with a cliffhanger of sorts. I couldn’t put down the book as soon as I began part 2. This second part makes the book a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ read for me. It’s a book worth sticking with! #avivaandfriendsrecos

TBR TBR TBR Alert!
This just might be the best book I have read all year. It’s an intense, edge of your seat book that you will not want to put down and leaves you in a book coma. I wish I could just read it again for the first time. I’m very excited to be recommending this book to every customer, friend & family as soon as it’s released!
Thank you Netgalley and Harlequin for this advanced reader copy. I will be counting down to add the physical copy to my own bookshelf.

Thank you NetGalley for the advanced reader copy of this book. Mary Kubica has become a must read author for me. This book is full of twists and turns. and although I did figure out one of the big twists early on, the other twist completely floored me and I didn't see it coming at all. I did have a few groan moments at some of the things a few of the characters did typical of a scary movie where you are yelling at the screen. Still, this is definitely a page turning, keep you up all night long book.

I’m a fan of Mary Kubica. This is not one of my favorites. I may be in the minority here. It moved very slowly and didn’t really seem like much of a thriller til the very end. I felt like the story lines didn’t really mesh well. By the time the big twist arrived, I didn’t care much and it just made me dislike the book more. I AM sorry! Thank you NetGalley for this ARC.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️5 STARS!!!!! Holy smokes! This was truly classic old-school can’t put down Mary Kubica. I liked her last few books (“The Good Girl” being my favorite) but I LOVED 🥰 “SHE’S NOT SORRY”!
I’ve been in a MAJOR reading slump for a week, which isn’t uncommon for me, but this one was a little worse. A few days without being deep into a book and I start be less than desirable to be around 😣. I knew I wanted to read this one but i was trying to hold on to it for a rainy day. Well I decided it was officially a hurricane week and decided to dig in. It truly did not disappoint.
In the beginning I found it very slow to start so I had to really commit to staying invested and see how this book played out. I went into it thinking this nurse has this patient that may have been pushed off this bridge and she’s going to dig into what happen. It was so much more than that.
There were A LOT of moving parts to where I found myself forgetting things that were going on. If you find yourself doing the same, stay buckled in for the ride because the destination is PHENOMENAL. There were so many twists and turns, and there were things that I didn’t see coming. A major twist that came had my mouth hanging open.
This is one of those books where I had to sit there for a moment and say to myself “She (Mary Kubica) got me.”
Thank you to Netgalley and Harlequin Trade Publishi for this ARC!

I LOVED Mary Kubica's new book, She's Not Sorry! I think I gasped out loud when the plot finally came together. Meghan is an ICU nurse and mom to a teenage daughter. She has a patient, Caitlin, in the ICU who is in a coma from a brain injury. Caitlin fell from a bridge. Or was she pushed? By whom? Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.

Mary Kubica is one of my "must-read" authors so I was delighted to get this one. Meghan is a nurse in the ICU and is currently caring for Caitlin who is in a coma after falling from a bridge; her parents visit her daily and Meghan is worried about her patient. But then odd things begin happening to Meghan: she gets trapped in the basement of her apartment, daughter Sienna is kidnapped, she receives an anonymous note with BITCH written on it, and ex-husband Ben wants to see her. How all these incidents are related is a wonderfully convoluted story of blackmail, mistaken identity, and serial killings. What's not to like??
Thanks to NetGalley for this ARC!

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC of this book!!! Great read with lots of twists and turns. It starts a little slow but about half way through...hold onto your seat!! Highly recommend

Thank you NetGalley and Harlequin Trade for an advance copy of this thriller from one of my very favorite authors! I was so excited to get this and it didn't disappoint. Meghan is and ICU nurse in Chicago and is living somewhat in fear after her divorce. The city is unsafe and she has a teenage daughter. She meets a long lost high school friend..shout out to Barriington High School! who is also getting divorced and they become friends...but Nat has a dangerous ex so this adds to the scariness Meghan feels. Also at the hospital she is caring for a young woman who jumped from a bridge and is in a coma....these stories all intersect in an unexpected way in Part 2 and it goes from there! I LOVED the Chicago setting...the L, Sheffield, Belmont even Guthries Tavern a favorite haunt of mine! This had some great twists, though I kind of predicted the final threat early on, I still enjoyed this. Mary K has another good one here! 3.5 stars rounded up!

This was a quick read with lots of twists. With so much going on, the ending wasn’t quite as satisfying as I had hoped for. There were a few loose ends that I was still curious about.

This book starts off a little slow. I didn’t really know where she was going with the story, but then bang it all starts coming at you. This one will keep you guessing until the very last page. Actually beyond the last page. This is a must read for fans of psychological thrillers.
Thank you NetGalley and Harlequin Trade publishing for my ARC.

3.5 stars rounded down-I was excited to read this one, it got many five star reviews and the premise was interesting. A single mom ICU nurse, Meghan, is treating a patient who attempted suicide by jumping off a bridge. Did she jump or was she pushed? Meanwhile, a chance meeting at a divorce therapy groups brings Meghan back in touch with an old friend from high school. Things are not as they seem…and s#$t gets wild. While I enjoyed the story, it just seemed like there were too many coincidences and not enough explanations. The story is told solely through Meghan’s point of view, and for me that was a miss. I always find I enjoy books with multiple POV’s more, but that may not be the case for everyone. Anywho, the ending was just that, and the why was never really explained. Again, lots of positive reviews for this one so I may be in the minority in my opinions. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

This book has A LOT of moving parts, and I couldn't help but wonder how they would all converge. I shouldn't have worried because this author never disappoints.
Meghan Michaels is juggling a lot--her job as a nurse, parenting her headstrong teen daughter as a divorcee, fearing the person who is targeting single women near her neighborhood, AND caring for a patient named Caitlin, who arrives in a coma with a traumatic brain injury after jumping from a bridge and plunging over twenty feet to the train tracks below.
Meghan has always tried to keep a distance because she knows nothing good ever comes from getting emotionally involved with patients. But Caitlin's devastated parents arrive, and after earning their trust, Caitlin's father confesses something so terrible that it will change the way Meghan looks at him. And then there's the strange man with the cold eyes who has been visiting Caitlin secretly, leaving whenever he's approached by staff.
Shockingly, a witness comes forward to say Caitlin wasn't alone on the bridge that night. The police are now investigating her case as a potential homicide, not suicide. Who would want her dead and why? When Meghan finds herself too tightly wound in the threads of this family drama, she can't help but wonder if her involvement will cost her everything.
When all the loose storylines came together, the climax took my breath away. The characters are so brilliantly crafted; flawed and realistic, and yes, you must suspend disbelief a bit, but the payoff is worth it. I loved the ambiguous ending that allowed me to explore the many "what-ifs".
A huge thank you to NetGalley and Park Row Books for this early read. SHE'S NOT SORRY will publish April 2, 2024.

Thank you NetGalley so much for the opportunity to read this book. I binged it in a day and loved all the twists. I can usually predict where a story is going but this book surprised me many times. A great read!

Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
This book was so full of twists and turns. I read a lot of thrillers, and I thought I had this one pretty much figured out by 70% in. Turns out, I did not. Kidnapping, murder, multiple suspects. It had everything needed to hold my interest from start to finish. Loved it!
