emotional hopeful inspiring tense fast-paced

5.0

Eye-opening memoir that will leave you pondering the meaning of family, identity, and education, of course. You don't want to put this one down! Caution: the stories of trauma and abuse may be triggering for some readers.

jneverland's review against another edition

I was bored and lost interest super fast. Slow pace and I rather have fun with my readings.

Such a tough book. So many terrible experiences. Twisted truth. Yet laced with the hope of change.

ameliaflint's review

4.5

This book is honestly too good. I have read it over and over again and Westover's story never ceases to amaze and inspire me. After reading this I always have a renewed gratitude for the resources and support for learning that I have available to me. I like her writing style too. I will say that I kind of disliked the narrator of this audiobook. When I reread next (which I definitely will haha) maybe I will do so with another audiobook recording.

Wow I really just scrolled through the content warning list and clicked probably every third one!! Be careful out there if you are triggered easily.
