Publisher Description

GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK • The #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder—now a hit Netflix series—returns with her first novel for adults: an “irresistible” (The Washington Post) thriller about a young woman trying to solve her own murder, “full of the writer’s signature twists and turns” (People).

“This truly unique premise snowballs into a roller-coaster ride of page-turning suspense and knock-out twists!”—Freida McFadden, author of The Housemaid

In seven days, Jet Mason will be dead.

Jet is the daughter of one of the wealthiest families in Woodstock, Vermont. Twenty-seven years old and back home, she’s still waiting for her life to begin. I’ll do it later, she always says. She has time.

Until Halloween night, when she is violently attacked by an unseen intruder, suffering a catastrophic head injury. Doctors are certain that within a week, the injury will trigger a fatal aneurysm. To her parents’ dismay, Jet rejects an extremely risky operation in order to guarantee herself at least a few more days.

Jet never thought of herself as having enemies. But now, in the one week she has left, she looks at everyone in a new light: her family, her former best friend turned sister-in-law, her ex-boyfriend.

As her condition deteriorates, she reconnects with her childhood friend Billy, the only one willing to help her. With Billy at her side, she’s absolutely determined to finally finish something:

Jet is going to solve her own murder.

Good but implausible

I had to ignore a lot of things that would never happen in real life to enjoy the story.

SO GOOD

Holly Jackson deserves every ounce of hype her books get—I have never laughed nor cried while reading a book as hard as I did reading this one.

More Than I Expected

The book is an emotional ride. From not really liking it at the start to crying my eyes out by the end, it made me feel everything - grief, hope, frustration, and even moments of reflection about life itself.

One thing I thought about: not every plot or side character had full closure. At first I was kinda frustrated, but sometimes leaving things a bit open made the story feel more true. It reminded me that real life doesn’t always wrap up perfectly. 💐
