It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s actually impossible to put down because you have to get to the end to see how Tara Westover\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s story finds its culmination.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a memoir of an extraordinary tale. From a mountain in Idaho, populated by a family straight out of one of those weird, religious fanatics, gun hoarding, food stocking, end of days movies, only it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s true!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Managing to stay of the radar, her father didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t register births, send his children to school, they had no medical attention when they needed it. Surviving horrendous accidents, her mother\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s knowledge of herbs and tinctures are used to treat everything from the slightest scrape to horrible head injury or burns. Bad things happen because it is the will of the Lord!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How did Tara go from this existence to getting a college degree? Again, this is not an easy read and I was left quite uneasy when I finished it. Would I read it again? Hmmm!! Definitely not for the faint hearted!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Available on Bolinda Borrowbox in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/fe.bolindadigital.com\/wldcs_bol_fo\/b2i\/productDetail.html?productId=RDH_501678&amp;fromPage=1&amp;b2bSite=4821\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">e-book<\/a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/fe.bolindadigital.com\/wldcs_bol_fo\/b2i\/productDetail.html?productId=PRH_577758&amp;fromPage=1&amp;b2bSite=4821\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">audiobook<\/a>&nbsp;format<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Tara Westover Genre: Adult Non-Fiction Reviewed by: Ann , Athy Library This is a difficult read, not because of the language but because of the content.
