Book Reviews
Several plot twists are surprising and effective, and there are gripping sequences involving Amy’s work as a deep-sea diver woven logically into the narrative…. Perfect beach read.
Wall Street Journal


Best-selling author Jackson packs in dramatic reveals about the women’s complex histories.
Time Magazine


A] nail-biter…. Winner takes all in this addictive, heart-thumping read.
Family Circle Magazine


[An] epic duel between two flawed women—it’s the perfect thriller to round out your summer.
People


[E]ntertaining, if flawed…. Well-developed, memorable characters and an action-packed plot compensate only in part for some farfetched twists and an unconvincing ending. Hopefully, Jackson will do better next time.
Publishers Weekly


(Starred review) Jackson successfully trades her usual quirky Southern lit for darker psychological suspense in this latest highly recommended novel. Her prowess at writing affecting, character-driven fiction is on full display, and readers will devour the twisty, consuming story. —Melissa DeWild, Comstock Park, MI
Library Journal


(Starred review) Nail-biting suspense.… Jackson builds on her talent for creating imperfect, capable, and multi-layered characters to write smart suspense, driven by the intelligence and determination of the instigator and her prey…. Never Have I Ever marks a new high in Jackson’s career.
Booklist


Jackson's novel is chock-full of dramatic reveals and twisty turns, but she paces them out well, dropping them like regularly spaced bombshells.… It's skillfully done. Amy herself is an openly flawed and relatable character…. Be warned: It's a stay-up-all-night kind of book. Compulsively readable.
