Some novels are gripping not just because of their story, but because of the questions they leave behind. Michael Clark’s The Truth About You is one of those books—haunting, morally complex, and impossible to forget.
Lucy and Meg believe their family’s nightmare is finally over when their stepfather Greg is arrested for assaulting their mother. But when she chooses to stay with him, the sisters face an impossible decision. Desperate to protect her, they secretly install hidden cameras in their home, expecting to capture proof of abuse. Instead, what Lucy witnesses challenges everything she thought she knew about love, loyalty, and justice. With echoes of Celeste Ng and Jodi Picoult, The Truth About You pulls readers into the unsettling gray spaces between victim and abuser, truth and perception, forcing us to reconsider the narratives we cling to about family, control, and survival.
