Resumen del Editor

New York Times best-selling 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 18-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 the stranger's spell, master of suspense Mary Kubica takes listeners 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.

Disappointed

Loved her previous two! This was much more contrived and slow with much less mystery.

Story was interesting but performance stunk

I enjoyed the twists this thriller throws at you, but the performance by the two voices was so flat that I had a difficult time of enjoying the story for what it was. They both droned on very blandly, mispronounced some words, and missed the cues for voice inflection. The performance kept distracting me from the story. Too bad. Mary Kubica deserves better for her book.

Another great Mary Kubica book!

I love Mary Kubica's books, and this one was no different. Such great plot line with many twists and surprises and she leaves you hanging on until the very end. The narrations was pleasant to listen to as well.

Well written and suspenseful

I was drawn in almost immediately. It's the kind of book you never want to end.
Love it

Couldn't put it down!

Thrilling and excellently read! My mini book club read it together and the two of us kept pace with each other effortlessly because we both couldn't wait to see what happened next!

Different with great twists

As always the writing is so good, character development is outstanding and the plot well it is interesting. Over I really enjoyed it.

Narration by both was really good representing their characters!!

Wowwww

I'm not gonna lie, I was super confused the entire book up until the last hour. I had no clue as to what was going on in terms of how the stories related to each other but man did it all come together in the end. I was not seeing that coming at all!

Terrible Narrators....Just Terrible

What did you like best about Don't You Cry? What did you like least?

The Narrators RUIN this book. I read on others similiar reviews and one where the woman drove them nuts. For me it was the man "Alex", I kept tuning out. He was pretentious, dry, and didn't get the essence for the 18 year old kid that he was supposed to be reading for. Story is good, but this is one I wish I would have read.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Kate Rudd and Kirby Heyborne ?

Anyone but Kirby Heyborne. Who has a nice voice. Just really missed the mark on this one. Specifically when he goes into detail. I vividly remember him describing Pear and her Ombre hair. They way he said Ombre immediately struck a nerve. Like you're supposed to be an 18 year old boy.

Six hours in and so bored.

I'm praying for an amazing twist somewhere in this book, but so far I'm just flustered and bored.
Here's to hoping this slow moving book picks up the pace soon....

Also. The male narrator is pretty annoying. Weird pauses. Too theatrical.

Would the Real Mary Kubica Please Stand Up?

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I can't get this book out of my head. Not because it was good, it was terrible. The novel is repetitive. It has endless, mind-numbing detail and description of places and people that don't matter to the plot. It throws in fancy words just to see if you're paying attention. Did I mention it's repetitive? Does the person who wrote this book think we're stupid? She treats us like we are. This is not a thriller. At the end, I couldn't have cared less what happened to the characters. They were bland and annoying.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Don't know

Did Kate Rudd and Kirby Heyborne do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Just okay.

Could you see Don't You Cry being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

God no!
