The Mason Jar 
"The Mason Jar"
James Russel Lingerfelt

Clayton Fincannon, Finn, has a heart for others, He wants to help the less fortunate as much as he can.  While taking college classes, Finn meets the love of his life.  A woman who shares his passion for helping others.  They spend lots of time together getting to know each other and falling in love.  But when Eden leaves the college without a real good-by, Finn doesn't know what to do.  

He falls into a deep depression and tries to find happiness and purpose from other means.  He spends the next decade depressed, lonely, and trying to find a purpose in his life.  

Will Finn ever find out what happened to Eden?  Will he spend the rest of his life depressed?

*****************************************
The book did not live up to my expectation.  There were several things that I did not agree with.  There was a lot of drinking, smoking, and innuendos.  There were also several inconsistencies within the book.   For instance Eden's name was never changed to protect her identity.  Also, I felt like the letters in the mason jar between Finn and his grandfather were underrated.  The mason jar letters are what intrigued me to begin with and the reason I was interested in the book.  Over all "The Mason Jar" is a book for light reading, if you have nothing else to do.
