The Truth and Other Hidden Things: A Novel by Lea Geller is a funny and emotional story that every mom should read. I say this mostly because I read the book the month after I gave birth and it resonated with me on such a deep level, but you don’t have to be a mom to enjoy this book! If you’ve ever felt invisible in your own life, I think you’d find this to be right up your alley.
I have to admit, I devoured this book back in October when I first received an ARC. The struggles of the main character feel realistic and valid in todays internet-driven society. Geller’s writing captured me from the first chapter and I had to keep furiously turning pages to see what happened next.
This book gets major kudos for mental health rep. Though portrayed in a hopeful light, this could be potentially triggering for those with depression, PPD, anxiety, and those who have experienced internet bullying.
Thank you to Lake Union Publishing and NetGalley for providing me an ARC in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
