The Truth According To Us by Annie Barrows
Set in the sweltering summer of 1938 in the small town of Macedonia, West Virginia, this novel weaves a tale of family secrets, personal discovery, and the complexities of truth. The story unfolds through the eyes of twelve-year-old Willa Romeyn, who becomes entangled in the lives of her eccentric family and the mysterious boarder, Layla Beck, a young woman sent by the Federal Writers' Project to document the town's history. As Layla delves into Macedonia's past, she uncovers hidden stories that challenge the town's idyllic facade, while Willa learns that the truth is often more complicated than it seems, leading to revelations that will change their lives forever.
