My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Thanks to Netgalley and RHPG Ballantine/Bantam for the pre-release copy of Not Quite Dead Yet by Holly Jackson. Below is my honest review.
This one was a ROLLERCOASTER of emotion and action and reveals.
I had a really hard time putting this one down when it was time to sleep, which should tell you what you need to know - I recommend this one completely.
Jet has been murdered. Well, she's been mortally injured and only has a week to live, and the odds are pretty much impossible for her to survive. So while she's not dead... yet... someone tried to murder her, and pretty much succeeded. But the kicker? She's got nothing to lose and a week to figure out who killed her.
Talk about a fun twist! (for us, of course, it really, really sucks for Jet). Little does Jet know, her quest to figure out who killed her will dig into the skin of her town, revealing connections previously unknown, mysteries people have tried to bury, and the sins of the past that have somehow continued to haunt all the way up to the present.
The pacing on this one was fantastic, making it hard to not just read a little more, a few more pages, one more chapter until BAM, I was done. The characters were great. The twists were well done. The solution was excellent.
And, well, Billy. That's all I can say. BILLY <3.
Highly recommended. Five stars.
