Description

From New York Times bestselling author Andy Andrews comes the return of one of our favorite characters: Jones, the Noticer, whose wise stories have comforted and guided millions of readers. In this third volume of The Noticer series, 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?

Based on a remarkable true story, Just Jones beautifully blends fiction, allegory, and inspiration. With rare insight, Andy and Jones take us on a journey that proves the importance of perspective, the power of connection, and the ability we all have to make the impossible come true.

    The only part I thought was short was the process where Keely recovered, I think that could help a lot of others that are where she was at that moment and how she got to some details of how she gained a path.

    I have read almost all of Mr. Andrew’s books and Just Jones is his very best! One does not need to have read the previous Noticer books to read and learn the amazing perspective from Jones. A book filled with laughter, love, tears and incredible insights on how to look at life. The lessons in this book are especially significant in today’s world. Highly recommended
  • Jones is back!!!!!

    Wow! That’s a first! Never have I bought a book on the day of its release and read it in one sitting. Yet amazingly I did that with Just Jones. Hope, Redemption, Sacrifice, Forgiveness, and Love are woven throughout. Laughter too. Jones is as enigmatic as ever and yet also seems even more accessible. You truly feel as if you are sitting down for coffee with him. The characters are fleshed out in such detail that we are able to feel what they feel and see what they see. Also -since Andy Andrews is the author-it is no surprise there is also incredible wisdom woven throughout Just Jones. Here is a sampling: “A mind is a thing far more powerful than the body it orders about. Like fire and water, a mind’s available level of strength is the same whether the force harnessed is to be used for purification or destruction. This, in fact, explains how a mind left untended can create mischief far beyond its own ability to clean up the messes it makes.” “Sometimes a thing can seem impossible. Until it is actually done.” “Impossibility is not overcome without denying power to the concept. In your life, what’s possible is often determined by what you believe. On the other hand, what is impossible can always be determined by what you believe. Belief is a currency of sorts. If you spend it foolishly by believing a thing is impossible, then to you it will be. But if you spend your currency wisely—by believing a thing is possible and allowing that belief to fuel your thinking and work—then to you it will be.” So please grab your copy of this wonderful book. And remember Jones will be around. He always is.
