Bingo Book Club 📚🎉: Educated by Tara Westover

Educated by Tara Westover (334 pages)
Genre: Memoir, Nonfiction, Family, Resilience

Summary:
Tara Westover grew up in a strict and isolated survivalist family in rural Idaho, with no formal education until the age of 17. Determined to forge a different path, she taught herself enough to enter university, eventually earning a PhD from Cambridge. Educated is her extraordinary memoir of family, self-invention, and the transformative power of learning. Honest, raw, and inspiring, it explores what we owe to ourselves — and what it costs to break away.
Trigger Warning: This book contains themes of abuse, neglect, and family trauma. Please take care while reading.
