Jess Flynn is a typical teenager living in 1998–she loves Alanis, likes hanging out with her friends and is nursing a crush on a boy in school. What a rollercoaster of a book! I’ll admit what started off as a slower read for me totally pulled the rug out from under my feet, and I ended up really enjoying the crazy trip that was This Is not the Jess Show. Except in this reality, the outside world is no place anyone would want to escape to. Nothing in Jess Flynn's world is as it seems, and as the cracks begin to show, Jess will discover her entire life is nothing more than someone else's entertainment. Even her beloved dog Fuller seems different.like, literally different, because he definitely didn't have that same pattern of spots on his stomach last week.
It's almost as if everyone is hiding something from her. Her sister Sara, on hospice care with a terminal blood disease, for once can't tell Jess what she should do. Jess's friends refuse to acknowledge the strange device. The problem is, it's 1998, and the first iPhone isn't due out for another nine years. It's almost as if everything might finally be going her way.until one day a tiny black phone with an apple logo on its screen falls out of her best friend's backpack and lands at Jess's feet. Like many teens, sometimes it feels as though everything in Jess Flynn's life has been engineered for maximum drama-from her performance at the school talent show, to the reappearance of her childhood best friend and perennial crush Jeremy, to her friends trying to set her up with one of the hottest guys in school.
