I'm the daughter of Mexican Catholic emigrants who found in Salt Lake City a place to call home, I was born in that beautiful city, and have wonderful memories of my childhood. This book has took me back to that time, and even though it has left me with sadness I truly thank Tara Westover for being brave enough to see beyond religion.
I've read a few of the one star or none reviews, I'm sorry for you, maybe it's the translation to English that makes it imposible to achieve the profound impact it has on Italian, Spanish or Portuguese readers. I was reading in Spanish Pride and Prejudice, it just isn't the same book, the marvelous humor and sarcasm of Elizabeth Bennet is totally lost, I guess it the same here.
