Not Quite Dead Yet by Holly Jackson
2.5
medium-paced

Very meh. I listened to audio for a little bit and did not like the narrator’s voice much. Jet was annoying, I think the only Holly Jackson protagonist I like is Pip. I get making her edgy, and her voice in the book where she’d often start thoughts and sentences without nouns, but i didn’t really care for it.

This book just wasn’t thrilling enough for me? Somehow I didn’t guess the killer. Billy and Jet were fine.  Jet was dumb honestly. Didn’t seem to care that much about her fate or her family. Her family felt underdevelopment considering the they role played in the book. The love story part was a bit unconvincing. 

I read the phrase “Jet Sniffed” an unnecessary amount of times. Why was she sniffing so much? Was it her brain damage ?? Was that the implication?
