I would like to thank NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing for an advance copy of I Did Not Kill My Husband in exchange for an honest review.

Wow, if I could’ve sat and read this book in one night, I would’ve! (Dang responsibilities). I don’t think there is one thing bad that I could say about this book. I literally loved ALL the characters (minus Taylor Campbell).
The story follows Cara and the sheriff, so there are only 2 point of views which I like.

The chapters are short and constantly kept me on edge, wanting to know more, saying “just one more chapter”. I needed to know what Cara was going to do next and everything she was going to overcome. Her and Jordan both are put through the wringer and I find myself somehow cheering both of them on 😂.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone! 5 ⭐️’s!

This book was such a wild ride. I loved how it blended true crime vibes with survival thriller energy. Cara was an interesting mix of messy, determined, and surprisingly easy to root for once the truth started unfolding. The tension never really let up, and the setting in the mountains made it even more intense. Some parts felt a little dramatic, but that’s exactly what made it fun. Fast-paced, addictive, and full of twists that kept me turning the pages.

Wow!!! Is all I can say about this absolutely outstanding book. I loved every paragraph, every sentence and every word of this masterpiece! I read it in 12 hours, which is a lot for me to do! It had everything and more laid out in the novel! I sure hope there is more to come from this author! I am totally hooked! This was an outstanding novel from the cover to the last page!

I Did Not Kill My Husband is a fast-paced, modern thriller that kept me hooked from start to finish. Linda Keir takes a familiar “wrongly accused” premise and refreshes it with influencer culture, public judgment, and the terrifying speed at which the internet decides guilt.

Cara Campbell is a compelling, imperfect protagonist. Her carefully curated online persona works against her, making it easy for everyone to believe she murdered her husband. Watching her lose her wealth, platform, and identity—and fight to survive in the wilderness—adds real tension and emotional depth to the story.

The dual POV between Cara and Sheriff Jordan Burke keeps the momentum strong, and the inclusion of podcast episodes was a great touch, highlighting the chaos of true-crime obsession and media pressure. While the pacing dips slightly in spots, the suspense never fully disappears, and the resolution is satisfying.

Overall, this was an engaging, timely thriller with solid twists and strong commentary on perception versus truth. A great pick for fans of high-stakes, media-driven mysteries.

Thank you to NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing for this eARC!

This is a well written, fast paced, fugitive on the run thriller. Told from two perspectives, one of the fugitive who claims her innocence and the other from the county sheriff trying to apprehend her. Great character development, breakneck pacing with extremely short chapters, and unexpected twists kept me reading straight through in one day. Add in some satirical social media posts and this is a winner. Highly recommended

Thanks to NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing, Inc. for an advanced reader copy.

This was such a fun, fast-paced thriller. Think The Fugitive (’90s Harrison Ford) meets The Real Housewives… chaotic, addictive, and impossible to put down. I loved the use of mixed media to kick off the chapter tones. Packed with action, adventure, sharp twists, and some truly LOL lines. I was hooked from the start and will definitely be diving into more of this author’s work. HIGHLY recommend.

Thank you @netgalley @blackstonepublishing
