NOTE: This is a summary of Educated: A Memoir by Tara Westover and not the main book.Tara Westover grew up in a Mormon family that didn't believe in public schooling. Instead, she was taught the beliefs of a religiously fanatic and paranoid father who likely had bipolar disorder. However, Tara eventually gained her independence and an amazing education that led to her becoming a doctor in history. Sadly, Tara's continued education meant that she was forced to sever ties with her parents and other members of her family that she once held dear. But this was a price that she had to pay in order to remain a free individual.
