✨ BOOK REVIEW ✨ Educated by Tara Westover

“Westover’s upbringing was unconventional, to say the least. Forbidden from attending school, doctor’s appointments, or almost any activity except for church, Westover passed her days working in a junkyard with her father and learning herbal remedies from her mother. Her parents’ extreme religious beliefs and distrust of outside influences provided the perfect environment for Westover’s older brother to physically and emotionally abuse her. Educated is the story of how Westover was able to overcome the pain of this abuse and her own negative feelings about herself woven together with the story of her path through higher education.”
