Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University.

I Didn’t Want It to End
Revisado: 09-16-19
This was a fascinating memoir of a woman’s struggle between her religious zealot family and her desire to be respected. She never used that word, but her fear and pain experienced at the hands of her father and brother, coupled with the lack of support from her mother and other family members seemed to drive her to a different life. The story was enthralling and heartbreaking. The narrator was excellent. Definitely check this one out.

For previous generations, living within your means was a simple formula. Now, with the staggering rise in health-care, medical, and housing costs, millions of people find themselves skating from paycheck to paycheck with no idea how to move forward.

May Be Better as a Hard Copy
Revisado: 10-26-13
Would you consider the audio edition of The 10 Commandments of Money to be better than the print version?
No. There is a lot of information in the book, such as websites and book titles, that would be much easier to follow in a print version. It sounds ridiculous for the reader to read out a website link. "w-w-w-dot-go-to-my-site-dot-com-forward-slash-while-you're-driving-forward-slash-dot-h-t-m-l."
Any additional comments?
Although I wouldn't necessarily recommend the audio version of this book, the content would lend itself well to a print version. I plan to follow up on some of the information I heard, although it's difficult to take notes, etc. if you listen while driving or doing something else hands-on.
