Review: Cool mystery with a nice twist - 📚 Title: Not Quite Dead Yet ✍️ Author: Holly Jackson (@hojay92) 🗂️ Genre: Crime, Thriller, Mystery ❤️ Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I really enjoyed this one, it took a little while to get up to speed but once it got going it was a real page turner with enough twisting and turning to keep me guessing until (nearly) the end. The story revolves about Jet, the daughter of a wealthy couple, who is brutally attacked and left with a condition that will kill her in just a few days. Given an impossible choice, Jet embarks on a journey to try to solve her own murder before her time runs out. The premise is a really cool one, it forces a sense of urgency and impending peril that is maintained from start to end. Because Jet is on such a tight timeframe, the story unfolds at a breakneck pace, almost feeling at times like its happening in real time. The past of the small collection of main characters becomes more and more intertwined, with more layers of the story being peeled away as Jet's time slowly runs out. I think this would make a great holiday read for the summer.

An interestIng read
This is the first book I have read by the author. I found myself intrigued by the storyline but never got to liking the main character - Jet. She was childish and selfish and just an overall unlikeable character. The other characters felt somewhat undeveloped and weak. The story itself was good if rather unbelievable. A decent enough read for the price I paid.

Interesting read
Interesting premise for the story. Decent read throughout with good characterisations and storylines. Worth a read and a good price to boot!

An enthralling twisty, turny tale with much emotion and dark humour.
Jet is entirely engaging, and swears a lot, and one can't help feeling for her throughout this story. Inevitably, it has a really sad ending, but oh, what a joy to read.

Good not great
Well written, good story, ok characters. Worth a read, not sure why it won the goodreads award for 2025 I think in the thriller category or something but I read better thrillers this year so I don’t agree with that.

Just like expected
Without talking about the story itself, the book is in great condition. The book is bigger compared to all of the other Holly Jackson books, but that might be because I bought the hardcover version.

Super Buch mit spannenden Wendungen zum mitfiebern
Ich finde alle Bücher von Holly Jackson super, auch dieses Buch hat wieder mit Spannung und verschiedenen Wendungen überzeugen können. Ich habe bis zum Ende mitgefiebert und meine eigenen Theorien aufgestellt. Ich liebe den Schreibstil auf Englisch und würde sagen, dass die Bücher super sind für Leute die gerne mal ein Englisches Buch lesen möchten. Medizinische Fachbegriffe müssen eventuell gegoogelt werden aber ansonsten ist es relativ verständlich geschrieben.

Not quite dead yet...... (Hardcover)
Excellent quality for the price... Bought it for my sister's friend and the quality of the hardcover convinced me to buy one for myself in the future (neverending tbr 😂) Hopefully the story is a good as it looks.
