Don't You Cry

New York Times bestselling author of The Good Girl, Mary Kubica returns with an electrifying and addictive tale of deceit and obsession 

In downtown Chicago, a young woman named Esther Vaughan disappears from her apartment without a trace. A haunting letter addressed to My Dearest is found among her possessions, leaving her friend and roommate Quinn Collins to wonder where Esther is and whether or not she's the person Quinn thought she knew.

Meanwhile, in a small Michigan harbor town an hour outside Chicago, a mysterious woman appears in the quiet coffee shop where eighteen-year-old Alex Gallo works as a dishwasher. He is immediately drawn to her charm and beauty, but what starts as an innocent crush quickly spirals into something far more dark and sinister than he ever expected.

As Quinn searches for answers about Esther, and Alex is drawn further under Pearl's spell, master of suspense Mary Kubica takes readers on a taut and twisted thrill ride that builds to a stunning conclusion and shows that no matter how fast and far we run, the past always catches up with us in the end.

                                                                             MY REVIEW


This is the first book I have read by Mary Kubica and I enjoyed it very much. which is why I requested this one through Netgalley. Don't You Cry was such a fantastically written novel. It tells two stories, happening during the same timeline, but from two characters who've never met.
 really enjoyed reading this book and I can't wait to read what else Kubica has to offer. it keeps you glued into the story and the mystery. The book takes place in Chicago as well as in a small town in Michigan. Quinn is trying to figure out what happened to her roommate Esther, while Alex is trying to figure out a little about the mysterious girl who appeared in town. There are so many different things going on in this book, it can be a little confusing but not hard to follow if you pay attention. The characters in this book are intriguing mostly because Quinn was so easy to connect with and Alex was so easy to believe everything this mysterious girl told him. But regardless of that, this was a very good story. I couldn't figure out what was going on until the last few chapters.
