The clock runs out on July 22nd, 2025. Jet Mason will do it later. Whatever it is. Later. Halloween night changes everything. An intruder breaks in and bashes Jet’s skull in, essentially murdering her. To everyone’s surprise, Jet wakes up in ICU. She suffered a catastrophic injury, and combined with a preexisting illness, its a death sentence. She’s alive, but “not quite dead yet”. Jet decides to make the most of the time that she has left… about seven days. She’s a ticking time bomb. Her plan? To solve her own murder. Now, because there is no more later. Jet teams up with her childhood friend, Billy, because he is the one that saved what is left of her life. Jet and Billy set out to uncover her murderer’s identity, leaving no stone unturned. Everyone looks guilty, from her own family members, to prominent members in her town. Jet uncovers a tangled web of lies and secrets kept by the people closest to her. Can Jet fit an entire lifetime of living for herself, and not in the shadow of her family, AND solve her murder in 7 days? She’s willing to die trying. HOLLY JACKSON DID IT AGAIN. I could NOT put this book down. Every time I thought I knew what was going to happen next? Another bombshell. Another twist, another turn. Holly Jackson brilliantly built this story up with a fresh and unexpected storyline, a problematic FMC with a wicked sense of humor, a splash splatter of love, and a story of finding your purpose before its too late. Not Quite Dead Yet is the unhinged MUST READ thriller of 2025!
0With a ticking time bomb in her head literally, Jet Mason has seven days to solve her *own* murder. With such a thrilling premise, my expectations were set but Holly Jackson definitely met them. I love a duo that has to team up and unravel a mystery together, and old childhood friends Jet and Billy were quite endearing. Although some parts in the middle dragged and there were some reveals I thought were a tad obvious, as a whole the plot was thought out and had a satisfying conclusion. There were also some very touching moments and a genuine message that readers can pull from this story. Other than an unnecessary third act “break up” (if you can even really call it that) that is immediately moved past, the last chunk of the book was easily the strongest.
