This may be the best book I’ve ever read.

Moving and original. I have never read a book quite like this one

It’s hard to wrap your head around the insane upbringing from a bipolar mormon extremist. Tara’s tale is brutal, eye opening, and downright disturbing. Abuse is a huge theme in her life story but she never desires pity. Instead she highlights perseverance and becoming your own savior. It’s inspirational, shocking, unique, and all too real. Truly a book you must read yourself to believe.

Educated was an interesting read. I liked the cadence, which kept me going. At first I tired of the “hick” background, but then, it became a broader metaphor for everyone separating from their family legacy.

I have not been so enthralled by a book in years. As extreme as Westover’s story is it is simultaneously relatable in a way that tickles my brain and scratches an itch I didn’t know I had. 10/10 would recommend to about 1/2 of my friends.

All the unpacking and unlearning she had to do. Props to Tara for having someone point her towards a way out. She is definitely better away from her family🙏🏽 Hopefully, the family can have a different pov and her bro can get some help👀

Tara Westover lovingly takes the reader along on her incredible harrowing journey toward learning how to love herself despite many external and internal obstacles in her way.

A beautifully written story with a gripping pace. Loved it.

This is not a book I would typically go for but after seeing Tara on Oprah, I decided to give it a try. I’m very glad I did!

Wow!
