A 'true fiction book' might seem like an oxymoron at first. True usually refers to non - fictional, fact - based content, while fiction is made - up stories. However, it could be a book that is based on real events but told in a fictionalized way. For example, 'The Kite Runner' by Khaled Hosseini. It's a fictional story but set against the backdrop of real historical events in Afghanistan. Another one could be 'All the Light We Cannot See' which is a fictional tale set during World War II and incorporates real - life aspects of the war and the places involved.
