A review by nichughes
Educated by Tara Westover

4.0

This was a tough read at times, with a few scenes making me feel sick with the amount of physical and emotional abuse described. But the author and her memoir are remarkable - to come from her circumstances and achieve such a high level of education (after teaching herself to pass the ACT with no formal schooling) is amazing and to be able to recount such traumatic memories had to be difficult.
