Jade spent her whole life searching for peace and happiness, repeatedly beating her wings with all her might, only to fly straight into the glass wall that separated her from the light. She could see it, but she couldn’t touch it. After repeatedly falling to the ground, stunned and bruised, she began to believe that the light was not meant to be given to someone like her.

In So Many Freakin’ Secrets, Janet Cheney takes her readers on a journey through her own 1950s/1960s-era dysfunctional upbringing: a life full of secrets, unaddressed emotions, and unhealthy behavior patterns that cultivated a climate of abuse. Punctuated with humor and unusual spurts of joy, Cheney is stymied by unspoken family themes of suppressing grief, hiding abuse, eating away your emotions, "don't talk/don’t share," and withholding love and affection. It all becomes the catalyst to find self-love and learning that all are worthy of love, just for being born.
