South Shore Readers discussion

Our April pick is the memoir Educated by Tara Westover.

We will be meeting at the Quarry Restaurant in Hingham on Sunday April 28th to discuss in person over brunch. Feel free to join us even if you haven't been in awhile and/or if you are new to our group. You can RSVP for that here:https://www.goodreads.com/event/show/...


Post your progress, thoughts etc. about the book here in this discussion topic.

OK, the Quarry called me and said that there is a private event and the latest they can take a brunch reservation is 12:30 PM. Does 12:30 work for people who are attending?

I finished and I didn’t love it. Maybe there was too much hype and my expectations were too high but I kind of couldn’t wait for it to be over. Also, some stuff just doesn’t add up-off to the internet for some half assed research to see if anyone is disputing any of her claims.

This was an interesting perspective: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/bl...

I am on chapter 30 and hoping to finish before book club tomorrow. I CAN DO IT!! (finishing reading between cringing about the descriptions of all their injuries)

Interesting article, thanks! I finished the book and generally liked it although agree all the bloody accidents definitely made me anxious.
