Book Review: You Don't Know Jack by Daniel J. Barrett




You Don't Know Jack by Daniel J. Barrett
Have read other books by this author and they are impressive.
This book is about Jack and how he helps others in the community. Love the initials of tests and other items and then they ae explained in English what they are.
He mentors kids to attend class and pass the achievements tests (GED's and job training)-get them off the streets. He's learning his team is dissolving and the program is ending. With the loss of his job he loses so much more when he gets home.
Killing them with kindness is up for order. Lots of twists and turns and I had to laugh out loud a few times! Love that he meets up with others from prior books as I know the characters already but you'd not be left out in the dark.
Love hearing the other side and how it backfires. Love that those invovled are NOT afraid of physical labor and the work he plans to do now with his life.
So much good to accomplish for those who will eventually work for it. Love how much knowledge Jack has and he uses it for good things.
So many struggles, tough love and obstacles for a good cause. This is a better than paying it forward book as you can feed a man one day but teach him to fish so he can provide every day.
Things I loved about this book is the romance, the people one meets in their life, the travel-new places for me to explore, the pay it forward and using your hands and knowledge to help others.
I received this book from the author and this is my honest review.
