Ivan’s Reviews > Educated > Status Update

I liked how it showed her struggle between choosing her family and her education. She loves her family but doesn't have the same faith as they do. I would recommend this book to people that want to broaden there view and see how other people's lives are lived. To find similarities and difference between themselves and Tara.

Tara's view of her family changes throughout the book. In the beginning, she follows everything and now she sees what is wrong with her family: "What was needed was a revolution, a reversal of the ancient, brittle roles we'd been playing out since my childhood" (Westover 263-264).
