#FridayReads: Not Quite Dead Yet by Holly Jackson

By Sharnell Johnson | August 1 2025 | FridayReads


Thirty-six hours later, she wakes up in the hospital to grim news: The attack has left a small bone fragment that’s putting pressure on her brain’s arterial wall. The doctors tell her that a large aneurysm will soon form, and when it ruptures, the hemorrhage will be fatal.


Jet has two choices: Undergo immediate surgery to remove the bone fragment, with less than a ten percent chance of survival. Or don’t, and die sometime in the coming week.


With the odds stacked against her and death a foregone conclusion, Jet knows what she has to do. She has never finished anything in her life . . . until now. With her last remaining week, she’s going to find out who murdered her.
