V trileri "Ešte nie som mŕtva" od Holly Jackson autorka predstavuje koncept: O sedem dní bude Jet Masonová mŕtva — po brutálnom útoku počas Halloweenu utrpí Jet vážne poranenie hlavy a lekári jej dávajú len 7 dní života. Jet sa rozhodne vyriešiť vlastnú vraždu, pričom jej neochvejným spoločníkom je kamarát z detstva Billy; pátranie a súboj s časom robia príbeh originálnym a napínavým. Recenzentka chváli Jetinu odvážnosť, pútavé vyšetrovanie a odľahčené, vtipné momenty, ktoré oživujú ťažkú tému, a tvrdí, že kniha si zaslúži viac pozornosti. Ako výtku uvádza prehnanú záverečnú policajnú akciu, no horkosladký záver bez zázraku podľa nej posilňuje príbeh a prináša uspokojenie, že vrah dostihol spravodlivosť.
