If Only I Could Tell You by Hannah Beckerman

Audrey has terminal cancer and more than anything in the world, she wants her two estranged daughters to reunite. It's been 28 long years since Jess stopped talking to Lily. Childhood trauma and secrets have ripped the family apart.

Audrey's granddaughters have never met. Lily doesn't know why Jess hates her and Audrey wants her family to heal before she passes away. Time is running out and it's up to Audrey to uncover the secret of why Jess won't talk to Lily.

The story is an emotional read and well written. It is told through alternating voices, Jess is an unlikable character and the book is slightly predictable but worth the read.
