A review by coatsy44
Educated by Tara Westover
5.0
When I saw this book as one of the top books of 2018, I knew I had to read it. And now I know why.
It’s one of those books that’s so hard to read but also you can’t really put it down. Tara comes from an extreme Mormon, survivalist home. She becomes one of the most educated people despite the adversity she faced.
It’s an incredible telling of something that happened in the not too distant past. Her life sounds like that of the 1920’s but she’s only a few years older than me.
Highly recommend this book!
