Publisher's summary

I know who you are. When Riley first gets the postcard tucked into her bag, she thinks it's a joke. Then she finds a birth certificate for a girl named Jane Elizabeth O'Leary hidden inside her baby book.

Riley's parents have always been pretty overprotective. What if it wasn't for her safety... but fear of her finding out their secret? What have they been hiding?

The more Riley digs for answers, the more questions she has. The only way to know the truth? Find out what happened to Jane O'Leary.

Annoying

Annoyed by the narrator due to her male voice impersonation. Boring and no personality for character.
The main character constantly chews the inside of her cheek or bites her lips for blood and the amount of bile mentioned is a bit much.

Gave up

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

A better book

No

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

Read a better book

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from See Jane Run?

All of it

Any additional comments?

Very contrived and implausible. I just didn't like it. Finally gave up maybe half way because I realized I just didn't care what happened to Jane.

Fast paced but not well written

ETA: I don’t know why I downloaded this audiobook. I forgot how much I disliked the story.

Have you ever read a book that was written so poorly you had to stop at least once a page and shake your head in disbelief? If not, SEE JANE RUN will give you that disappointing literary experience you never wanted to have. Writer Hannah Jayne has never met an adjective, adverb, simile or metaphor she didn't try to cram in this overwritten novel. While some of her words would have been clever and unique had she used them sparingly, Jayne seems not to have gotten the memo first time creative, second time okay, fifteenth time overbearing.
Additionally, the dialogue didn't sound as if it came from a seventeen year old. Most of the time the teens sounded like middle schoolers and behaved just as immaturely. Jayne put in way too much dialogue about mundane topics not central to the plot or characters, and extra words that read like page fillers to get a manuscript up to a certain number of words. Most of the major and minor characters where cliched and one dimensional.
I recommend you not purchase or download this book, even if it's free, unless you want an example of overwriting to the point of unreadable.

Who is the audience?

Perhaps the target audience is 5th graders, and if so, the book is fine. If not, then this is the worst book I have ever suffered through. The story line, the (non)sequence of events, the vocabulary, the similes.....awful
