When I first started the novel Shattered I figured it would end with the main character Ian Blackburn denying his present from his parents, and giving up his life to either work in the soup kitchen, or become a bum. Instead it kind of took me by surprise, he managed to get 'Sarge' who said his name was Jack, help in AA meetings and off the streets. At the end of the book Ian received his BMW that he was working at the club for and he is now going to use it to continue coming to the soup kitchen to help. this ending was very shocking seeing of how at the end of the book he decided to continue to volunteer at the club and use his BMW to get there. When Ian thanked Mac for helping him Mac said it was no problem, Ian than said no really, I needed your help. Mac replied with, who doesn't need help?
If you recived your 40,000$ car, passed the class you couldn't fail, and were done with doing volunteer work at a soup kitchen, would you continue to help out of the goodness of your heart?
