Über das Buch

“A fantastically smart, funny, and thoughtful thriller.”—Nicola Yoon, #1 New York Times best-selling author of Everything, Everything and The Sun Is Also a Star

The year is 1998: Titanic just won six Oscars, boy bands are dominating MTV’s airwaves, and like any other teenager Jess Flynn is just trying to survive high school. Between a crush on her childhood best friend, overprotective parents, and her sister’s worsening health, the only constant is her hometown of Swickley, which feels smaller by the day.

Jess is resigned to her small-town life, until the day she discovers a mysterious device with an apple logo, causing her to question everything and everyone she’s ever known. As more cracks appear in Jess’s world, she faces a choice: can she live the rest of her life knowing it’s a lie, or should she risk everything for the truth?

A fast-paced, mind-bending YA thriller packed with ’90s pop culture references and perfect for fans of Riverdale, This Is Not the Jess Show will keep readers guessing until the very end.

And don't miss the explosive and thrilling conclusion, This Is Not the Real World!

    Geht besser und schlechter. Es ließ sich gut lesen, war aber etwas hastig an einigen Stellen und das “world-building” hat mich nicht so überzeugt. Außerdem fand ich es schon auch sehr vorhersehbar.

    This was a surprisingly fun, engaging read! I was a bit annoyed with the abundance of 90s references in the first half of the book and I don't necessarily agree with all of the worldbuilding choices, but overall this was insanely entertaining. I'd suggest reading this knowing as little as possible before.

    The setting of the novel awakened nostalgic feelings in me. I really enjoyed reading a story set in the 90s. The first plot twist was quite unexpected, but this kind of trope is one of my favorite themes to work with in novels and movies. Unfortunately, the second part of the book ran out of steam and the ending left me a bit disappointed. Therefore, the story gets 3/5 stars.
