Hi this is Betsy from Otto’s. If Jack’s in Love has been called a “coming of age” novel—a novel with “social issues.” But it’s so much more! I was hooked on the suspense involved and the telling details of the characters portrayed. First and foremost is Jack Witcher—yes, one of those Witchers! They live on the edge of small town in Virginia and their house is a mess, their yard is a mess and the father and the older son are a mess. Jack is 12 and a straight A student but, because his family is such a mess, he is jeered at and ostracized by his classmates. Myra, also a straight A student, feels the injustice of it and speaks to him!... Ahh! He’s in love…and with the encouragement of a Jewish jeweler (who knows a little about ostracism), he wins her affection—until his brother kills her brother (everyone in town thinks!) Entrusted with secrets he’s promised not to tell and threatened by both his brother and his father, what is Jack to do? Read If Jack’s in Love and find out. You’ll find it at Otto’s, a booklover’s paradise in the heart of Downtown Williamsport.
