In most cases, since the aj-100 is such an inexpensive guitar, you are better off taking it straight to a luthier. He or she can either repair the neck or make you an exact copy if you can afford it. Best of luck no matter what your decision is. I have put two to three times what I had invested in an instrument many times if I have an attachment to it, so I completely understand why you might make this decision, but take it to a luthier if you are going to go all the way, and get the job done right.

Take it to a professional. I can explain how to fix it but you might not have the proper tools.
The luthier will use a fast binding glue but first, will drill 2 little holes to strenghten with screws or metal bars. Once glues, and properly filled, you shouldn't see the break and the guitar should be perfect.
