Home Truths wasn’t my favourite by Charity Norman. The first half was thought-provoking, and a unique twist on the unravelling of a family due to grief, obsession, and addiction. But, apart from one decent twist, the last half was pretty predictable and repetitive, and I found myself doing the dreaded skimming.
