See Jane Snap
Book Feature - See Jane Snap by Bethany Crandell
HBL Note: Say it with me, “There’s no such thing as a perfect life.” I think Jane, the main character in SEE JANE SNAP by Bethany Crandell, needs a friend to tell her that. She’s trying to cover up a family secret, that her husband has affairs with men, while putting on this perfect facade as the woman who has it all. If there is anything we’ve learned from reading fiction, it’s that the more perfect the life seems, the more chaotic it is behind closed doors. This is a story of self-discovery, the search for one’s true identity, and female empowerment. Scroll down to read more about SEE JANE SNAP.
From the publisher:
See Jane smile. Thirty-nine-year-old Jane Osborne appears to the world like she has a charmed life. Her daughter attends private school. Jane chairs the PTA. Even her marriage to Dan, the handsome, prominent surgeon, is blissfully happy. Her universe is stable, and her future is fixed…just like that smile. Because it’s all a ruse. Unbeknownst to anyone, after eighteen years of marriage, Dan’s revealed that he’s been living a double life and is in love with a man. But for the sake of his career, Jane must keep that secret, secret.
See Jane lie. With their livelihood on the line, Jane agrees to maintain appearances. But soon the weight of Dan’s deception and the pain of his betrayal get the better of her. Something’s got to give.
See Jane snap. Quite publicly. And a bit unlawfully. With brutal honesty, Jane must confront her choices head-on and determine―for herself―if the facade of stability she’s been protecting is worth the price of her own sanity and happiness.
