Can this jam be saved/re-done?

I made blueberry jam using the recipe from the Ball Blue Book. It's just berries and sugar. The mixture never did "break from the spoon in a sheet" which is how they describe testing for the jellying point.

This jam is SO THICK it is unusable. Can I re-cook it maybe adding some fruit juice and re-can it? Or is it a total loss?

I tried microwaving to thin it for use, but as it cools it thickens up and has an unappealing mouth feel.

If I have to toss it at least I only have four jars!
