By Tara Westover. Random House; 385 pages; $28. Hutchinson; [pounds sterling]14.99
A riveting memoir of a brutal upbringing. The author grew up in a normally opaque environment: a Mormon survivalist household in Idaho, where she endured abuse and received no education. Despite not setting foot in a classroom until she was 17, she made it to university and wound up with a PhD from Cambridge.
##The first English memoir that I have read. Things happened, I don’t know what caused the change, herself or miracle or both
評分##真的一般
評分##What an intense book to my surprise. Setting aside the Homeless-to-Harvard-alike buzz, it is the author's personal struggle to reshape her history and the history around her that makes the book dynamic.
評分##ignorance
評分讀完瞭,兩點感受:一是這傢人屢屢大難不死,真的讓人難以理解,特彆是Shawn和作者的爸爸,看來信仰真的讓人強大…但作者與Shawn之間,以及她和原生傢庭之間的結局讓人唏噓,作者還年輕,希望人生的最終會是Happy Ending吧。二是作者傢齣現三個博士,即便她的傢庭教育有反智傾嚮,但她父母肯定還是作對瞭一些事情,很好奇那到底是什麼。

評分##在最需要快速閱讀技術書籍的時候花瞭大量時間讀瞭這本迴憶錄…唉,我也希望我能用同樣的興趣來讀技術書啊…就像tara讀文獻的那種dedication。加油!
評分##自我的發現有時必須beyond love 愛是一迴事 接受是一迴事 選擇並堅持又是另一迴事
