Educated is a memoir by Tara Westover. Raised in a strict and abusive household in rural Idaho, Westover had no formal education until she was seventeen. Despite the challenges she faced, she taught herself enough to gain admission to Brigham Young University and eventually went on to earn a PhD from Cambridge University. Educated is a gripping and thought-provoking account of Westover's journey to break free from her past and pursue knowledge and self-discovery.
