The Good Girl
Mary Kubica, 2014
A Chicago woman disappears, and the people left behind tell the story in alternating voices—each with something to hide.
Mary Kubica was a high school history teacher in suburban Chicago when she wrote The Good Girl, her debut and a New York Times bestseller.
Feels like dread, death and memory.
The relief of letting someone else carry your sadness, just for a moment.
But he holds me so tightly that for a moment, the emotions are at bay. The sadness and fear, the regret and the loathing. He bottles them up inside his arms so that for a split second I don’t have to be the one carrying the weight of them. For this moment, the burden is his. Mary Kubica, 2014
