10.29.2020 JUST JONES: Sometimes a Thing Is Impossible . . . Until It Is Actually Done By Andy Andrews

 
From New York Times bestselling author Andy Andrews comes the return of one of our favorite characters: Jones, the Noticer. Jones’ wise stories have comforted and guided millions of readers. In Just Jones, navigate the hope that the impossible can come true.
At 3:29 a.m. on May 22, a telephone rings in Orange Beach, Alabama. Breaking the sleepy silence, a hastily whispered message heralds the news that readers have been waiting on for seven years: Jones is back in town. Apparently, however, he is also in jail.

The old man is tight-lipped about the circumstances surrounding his brief incarceration. After arriving to bail him out, Andy is shocked to discover that his trusted friend has already opened an unusual business in one of the resort town’s most high-profile shopping districts.

As the town moves from spring to summer, a practical joker is becoming bolder and more inventive with every prank that is pulled. Could Jones be behind some of it? Why? What’s the truth about that four-hundred-pound table in his store? And why does it look as if every person Jones meets has a secret they will reveal only to him?

With melodic writing and a whimsical, authentic voice, Andy and Jones take you on a sometimes hilarious journey to discover the heart of people and learn a few valuable lessons along the way, including:


the importance of perspective
the power of connection to create peace in a community
and the ability you have to make the impossible come true
Just Jones is book #3 in The Noticer series, following The Noticer and The Noticer Returns. Each book is a standalone fictional novel based on true events, following the character of Jones, a mysterious elderly man with endless wisdom who always appears to show up exactly when he’s needed most.

My thoughts:


What a fantastic book to read! I was completely mesmerized by this book in the Noticer series. I have not read any of the other books in this series, but don't let this stop you from picking up this beautiful book. Just Jones is a fantastic story that is both mesmerizing and captivating. Lots of great stories and life lessons along the way. This was a really quick read that I enjoyed and found to be eye opening. I now understand why Andy Andrews has such a loyal following - a true master storyteller. I am going to be purchasing this book for friends and family to gift.


Wonderful!!
