She’s Not Sorry by Mary Kubica

 

What is a recent thriller that you have read and enjoyed?

Meghan Michaels is a divorced ICU nurse in Chicago.  She’s a single mom taking care of her teenaged daughter as a killer roams the streets murdering single women.  A new patient has arrived in the ICUE named Caitlen.  It’s thought that she tried to commit suicide, but a witness comes forward stating that they saw Caitlin fighting with someone right before her fall.  Could it have been a murder attempt?

My thoughts on this novel:

·       I have enjoyed Mary Kubica’s thrillers in the past and this did not disappoint.

·       I really enjoyed the twist at the end of the novel.  I don’t want to ruin the surprise, so I am not going to get into details.

·       The plot was very engaging, and I read this story quickly.  I was hooked from the very first page.

·       I especially enjoyed the atmosphere and tension in this book.  I felt scared for Meghan every time she walked home. 

·       The unreliable characters made it so that the reader was not sure who to believe.

·       The difficulty of the mother and teenage daughter relationship seemed very relatable.

·       It was interesting thinking about being a nurse and trying to maintain the balance of being a professional and not digging into patients’ private matters.

·       I read this book in April, but I’m still plucking away at getting some past reviews posted.

Overall, She’s Not Sorry by Mary Kubica was an engaging thriller that I could not put down.
