Educated

Have you read Educated by Tara Westover, or Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie? Both excellent reads.

Parent context: It’s been in my to-read list for a long time because the cult aspect sounded interesting, so I might go ahead and pick it up! Thank you. Reply: It’s SO good. One of my favorite books.

Educated (nonfiction) ... one can conquer their upbringing / past

I’ve been eyeing Educated for awhile now. Good to see an endorsement for it here! I’m gonna have to take the plunge on it.
