The Dazzling Truth by Helen Cullen
4.0
*I received a copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.
I really enjoyed this story about a family and their struggled over three decades. I will say, as someone who personally struggles with anxiety and depression, this was at times a little hard to read because it was discussing aspects of things I deal with myself. So if you deal with similar things, be mindful going in.
That being said this was a beautiful and heartbreaking story. Even though the story starts out with a tragic occurrence, we then go back to when Maeve and Murtagh first met and then follow them through their relationship. There are many good times, but there are also days where Maeve's bad days creep in, and the story shows the impact those days have on the whole family.
It really was a lovely story about family and love, but make sure you have tissues handy when giving it a read.
