A review by seullywillikers
Educated by Tara Westover

challenging emotional hopeful reflective sad tense medium-paced

5.0

Powerful and intense, this telling of Dr. Westover's growing up is a very human look into dynamics of a family, and the choices we make. Although my mother's situation was not the same as Tara's I still see parallels and insights that help me to understand her better.
