Truth Be Told by Sue Divin
3.0
3.5⭐️
This book is about two girls, Tara & Faith. Tara is from Derry City while Faith is from rural Armagh. They both have been living differently until they met each other to discover that they both look exactly the same,like a twin. That is where they started to search for the truth which leads them to uncover more than they nargained for.
Throughout their journey, I find it quite hard to adapt to the writings but when I reached few chapters before it ends, I get the story. I feel that the story is quite predictable at some points but it’s fine since at the end readers will get to know the truth. I’m not sure if it was just me but I believe the writing style is a bit different than others,therefore if you’re a beginner,I don’t recommend you to start with this book. It’s fast paced & a simple story that contains not only about finding the truth but also about forgiveness. This book is the story of women across three generations in Nothern Ireland. There’s histories from the past generations of Tara & Faith which is related to ‘the Troubles’ , the lagacy conflict & about social and right-based issues.
The author mentions that the characters and plot is fictitious,the context is real. Tbh, I’m not so familiar to the other country’s history but in this book, there are stories related to regional government in Nothern Ireland & British government that have something to do with polictics. Also, ‘the Troubles’ , the Prod(Protestants) & the IRA also mentioned in this book. Please take note that it’s not mainly about the politics but it’s about finding the truth of the mystery of the two girl’s with the same face. Trope found in this story is found family. It’s truly a heart-warming story
