________________________
Tara Westover and her family grew up preparing for the End of Days but, according to the government, she didn’t exist. She hadn’t been registered for a birth certificate. She had no school records because she’d never set foot in a classroom, and no medical records because her father didn’t believe in hospitals.
As she grew older, her father became more radical and her brother more violent. At sixteen, Tara knew she had to leave home. In doing so she discovered both the transformative power of education, and the price she had to pay for it.

##每一章都让人愤怒，也很惊奇。我已经死了一千次，她不仅活下来还向前走了，而且也没有解释。。。
评分##Listening to the audio book while I was running，I cried all the way.
评分##（原版看完打卡，这种青春成长小说可能已经不适合我这种大龄人士了，中途无数次想弃。）反邪教反原生家庭檄文，美国助学金计划宣传小说。讲了一个原生家庭极度恶劣的小孩，如何面对神棍偏执狂爸爸，家暴哥哥，被洗脑的妈妈，懦弱的妯娌，不断觉醒，不断怀疑自己，不断被拖回去，不断挣扎抗争的故事。而这一切的改变都源于美国轻松就能申请的助学金计划。然后女主就一路开挂：中学都没读过但短暂努力一下就考上了大学，剑桥只有一个推荐名额教授就给了她，论文随便一写就是几十年来最佳，盖茨奖学金哈佛博士都轻而易举，唱歌从小就擅长，性格孤僻但男友和朋友都爱她。我看完没有获得什么力量，也很难共情，只觉得能那么事无巨细的记录父母兄弟和自己的黑历史，是个狼人。整本写作风格都非常电影化，翻拍指日可待，不过我肯定不会去看。
评分##近年读过的最好看的英文书！
评分##They are more complicated than the roles they are assigned in stories. What she has undergone and achieved is such encouraging and uplifting. I identified with Tara Westover for the most part.

评分##Power of education
评分##这是一个自诩爱看书的人从去年九月底硕士开学到现在看完的唯一一本课外书????/我不得不承认看到剑桥的教授说你想上哪读研我都能保你录取的时候我居然有那么一丝不道德的嫉妒????可能有的人就是天赋异禀吧，我认认真真读了十几年的书，还不是被剑桥脆拒了吗????/最后一部分看作者反反复复与过去斗争，一次次回到那个家，看得我好累????
