Hole In My Life 3

Even though Jack is able to escape back to Florida after the police crash the operation, his father tells him it would be best to turn himself in. Jack does this and for the first time in the whole book, I agree with the decision that he makes. Rather than continuing to run, he takes his dad's advice and turns himself in. I agree with this choice because the FBI would find him sooner or later, and the charges would be worse. If he turned himself in and took the lighter sentence, he could sooner get his life back on track and become the writer that he so desperately wants to be. It would have been best to not go through with the operation in the first place, and he knows that, but he accepts the consequences and behaves in prison, which I can imagine is a hard place to be stuck in.
