Book review. Dead is not complete.

I don't know what to say because I finished reading it.

Not Quite Dead Yet | Dead Not Close

9 Points or ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆

The story of "Jet or Margaret Mason," a young woman who was killed on Halloween night, miraculously survived, but she only lived a few days later, and then she died because of a crack in her brain, and she chose not to operate because the chances of survival were slim, and she fought the rest of her life to find the killer who killed her.

Good plot / storyline. Very fun. Have some hope. Intense investigation. Nothing complicated. Easy to read. Easy to understand. Investigations by the heroine and the heroine are ordinary. Early adulthood. Both are very good. Chemistry is good enough. Give a feed like Young Adult. Think of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder. Or maybe the same writer gives a similar feed. But the characters in this book are more conscious, not ruddy or impulsive, but they are enterprising because they are close to death, but they don't make sense.

The story is not very fast, sometimes a little slow, but it is very interesting. The suspicions are a lot, so it can be read more and more enjoyable. There may be a lot of spur in the end, because it is very thick, about 500 pages, but it has the advantage of making the reader more or less attached to the character.

It's very difficult to guess the content, not even know how to hide the truth, causing a lot of things to go unexpectedly, and a lot of peaks. The guess of the killer is also very difficult. A lot of suspicious characters, but still not a lot. But the real killer is not suspicious. When the answer came out, it was a lot of peaks. Before that, there was also a break. I don't know who to go down, but not that one person was considered very good, otherwise it would look a little too heartless.

At the end of the day, before answering everything, you can tell that you are very sad. When you read it, you think that there will be a miracle. The writer is very heartless. It is sad that the writer has to start an apology first. Some people may not be sad. It is also because we feel attached to the character. And there is a little gimmick that at first I didn't think there would be, but as expected, it is very good. It makes the end very charming and profound.

When I told you everything, this one was so peak that I gradually told you some of the truth about motivation, I didn't guess correctly, but there was some mass that made me feel like this, and it really is.

Overall, very fun. Guessing the killer is very difficult. Many truths are unexpected and very peak. The investigation is intense. The puzzle is interesting. It can be read gradually and very addictive. It may be a little thick, but at a length, it makes the reader bond with the author to the end of the story, which leads to a lot of gratitude, sadness, or shock. This book is a lot more than expected. Who likes "The Good Boy's Homicide Guide" from the same writer should not miss it. Who has never read this writer? Try this book as the first.

... Read moreในฐานะคนที่ชื่นชอบนิยายแนวสืบสวนสอบสวน "ตายไม่สนิท" ถือเป็นหนึ่งในเรื่องที่เกินคาดหวังมาก ๆ เพราะนอกจากโครงเรื่องที่แปลกใหม่และน่าติดตามแล้ว ความรู้สึกผูกพันกับตัวละครโดยเฉพาะเจ็ตยังทำให้การอ่านมีความหมายมากกว่าการแค่เสพเรื่องลึกลับทั่วไป ผมประทับใจวิธีที่นักเขียนสร้างความสัมพันธ์ระหว่างตัวละครหลักกับผู้อ่าน แม้จะเป็นเรื่องที่ตัวละครต้องเผชิญกับชะตากรรมใกล้ตาย แต่กลับไม่ทำให้เรื่องดูเศร้าหรือหนักเกินไป ตัวละครมีความสมจริง คิดซับซ้อนและมีเหตุผลในการตัดสินใจ แม้บางจังหวะจะอึดอัดบ้าง แต่นั่นกลับเสริมให้ความลึกลับและความระทึกเพิ่มมากขึ้น เจ็ดวันสุดท้ายที่เหลือของเจ็ตเต็มไปด้วยความพยายามในการเคลียร์ปริศนาและค้นหาความจริง ทำให้ผมเห็นถึงความหมายของ "เวลาที่จำกัด" ในการเติมเต็มชีวิตให้คุ้มค่าที่สุด นอกจากนี้การเฉลยข้อมูลต่าง ๆ ยังมีจุดหักมุมที่ไม่น่าเชื่อ ซึ่งกระตุ้นให้ผู้อ่านต้องตั้งคำถามและคิดตามไปด้วย สิ่งที่โดดเด่นอีกอย่างคือการใช้ธีม "ความตายที่ไม่สมบูรณ์" หรือ Not Quite Dead ที่สะท้อนความเปราะบางของชีวิตและความไม่แน่นอนของโชคชะตา ขณะเดียวกันยังแฝงข้อคิดเกี่ยวกับการให้อภัยและการเปิดใจยอมรับความจริง ประสบการณ์การอ่านครั้งนี้ทำให้ผมอยากแนะนำสำหรับผู้ที่ชอบนิยายที่ผสมผสานความลึกลับ เข้มข้น และความรู้สึกสะเทือนใจ เพราะเล่มนี้ไม่เพียงแต่ให้ความสนุกสนานและลุ้นระทึก แต่ยังสร้างความทรงจำและความรู้สึกลึกซึ้งที่ตราตรึงใจไปอีกนาน
