Educated by Tara Westover
"Once justified, I thought the strangling guilt would release me and I could catch my breath. But vindication has no power over guilt.

For whatever reason (I think I just got swamped) the first time I read it, I didn't do a review on here. One of my reading goals in 2019 is … Continue reading The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden (No Spoilers)
