Wow, I’m so glad Tara has shared her story with us. As a former teacher, I’m an advocate for education. Hearing about Tara’s education and lack there of was eye opening. The way she discusses how it has impacted her relationships, especially with her family was very interesting to me. The biggest detail that stuck out to me was her retelling of reading about the Holocaust for the first time in college. Around the 40% mark, right before she went off to school, it started dragging for me, but the second half of the book made up for it.
