Description

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 Black Mirror, 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!

Black Mirror meets My So-Called Life in this fast-paced, timely YA thriller about separating fact from fiction-and how far we'll go to create our own version of reality.

Absolutely Fantastic

This was my first time ordering from SciFier but it definitely won't be my last. When it comes to buying books online the packaging needs to be good, SciFier were great they used bubble wrap to make sure they arrived perfect. Amazing range of books that majority are lower priced than most book retailers. Wonderful service, I'll definitely be recommending to everyone. Thank you.
