 Interesting premise but not my favorite of Jackson’s so far. I feel like the sentence structure got really repetitive and left me skimming a bit because everything felt too in Jet’s head and the thoughts were redundant. However, I love that there was no miracle at the end. It definitely felt more YA to me than I expected, despite the protagonist’s age, so maybe if the age was different I would have had different feelings going into it and some of the more juvenile storylines would have felt more appropriate.
