Tara Westover was 17 the first time she set foot in a classroom. Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, she prepared for the end of the world by stockpiling home-canned peaches. In the summer she stewed herbs for her mother, a midwife and healer, and in the winter she salvaged in her father's junkyard. Her father forbade hospitals, so Tara never saw a doctor or nurse. Gashes and concussions, even burns from explosions, were all treated at home with herbalism. Then, lacking any formal education, Tara began to educate herself. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge.

One of the best book series this year
Absolutely loved this book! How could you not love a book that starts with a character digging a grave? This story twist and turns so many times and it is hard to know who can be trusted. It is a book that you will want to keep listening to, you need to know what is going to happen next.... fantastic!

An incredible audiobook
I didn’t expect much from this book, I prefer a book with other listeners reviews but I think there was only one. I had never heard of the author but thought sounds interesting so I will give it a go. I am so pleased I did, what a book could not stop listening. Very well written and read and most importantly, to me anyway, it is believable. One of the best listens for a long time.

I would have loved to give this book six stars!
This was such an unusual book compared to the usual thrillers. I really loved the fact that the author was also the narrator she really brought the story to life. I was enthralled by the actions of Erin and Mark and how it all unfolded, it is easy to see how a seemingly normal couple can be drawn to the dark side. I had a job to stop listening and wanted to keep going until it was finished. At first I could not see how all the pieces fitted together but as it became clearer I had to admit that is was a very clever plot. I can't wait for Steadman's next book.

Wow... just wow!
After having three children in two and a half years I never seem to have the free time to read books or stay conscious long enough to read more than a few pages! So the fact I have been able to literally digest this book in a week speaks volumes for how good it is! It has me immediately googling Catherine Steadman to find more reading material! Excellent read, very clever and quite an unexpected ending!

I think the writer being the narrator really helps the story come to life in the way she intended. how it was written made you feel like you were there in person and got involved in the lives of these people. really interesting story and not necessarily the ending you expect when you start listening. very well done!

Cleverly written and a truly enthralling listen
In this novel we follow Erin a documentary filmmaker and newlywed to investment banker Mark.
These two are passionately in love but not without their issues. Mark has lost his job and therefore direction, Erin is embarking on a new documentary documenting prisoners who are soon to leave prison. We follow them on their dream honeymoon where things take a turn, and one decision impacts their future and their lives.
Without giving any spoilers this is not a romantic novel this has wonderful twists and turns and challengers that you feel like you are being taken along for.
This debut novel from Catherine Steadman is enthralling and you genuinely will not want to put it down.

Something in the narration...
Just started to listen to this book, I'm only on the second chapter as I write. The story seems ok so far, however, the continuous swallowing and clicking noises made by the narrator after every sentence, is frankly, driving me to distraction! Even with the volume down, it's still audible. If like me this kind of thing annoys you, I recommend you read instead of listening!

I was sad when it finished
Catherine Steadman was really good. The story was really good. The story was easy to follow but it kept you hooked on from start to finish.

Gripping
Excellent start that grips you. Very entertaining. Well read. Although I guessed the "twist" very early on I wanted to hear how it would all play out.

Enjoyed but......
Enjoyed the story and narrator but there is the most annoying clicking noise on the audio which is distracting and extremely irritating- I had to stop and try again many times ... felt like screaming turning volume down but could still hear it - like a tap dripping - grrrrr

CLICKING!!!
I would have probably enjoyed this book if I had forced my way through it but I couldn’t stand the Narrator’s endless clicking!! I got a couple of hours in and had to turn it off :( wasted my money......

Can’t concentrate on the words for all the clicks and slurps
Professional narrators work hard to remove all the ugly mouth noises from their reads for a reason. What a shame the writer felt the need to narrate - sounds like she’s drowning in saliva.

Slow and An Annoying Heroine
I had high hopes for this book. From the get go, I found the heroine both unrelatable and not very bright. I love crime thrillers and I've ready many but I found this book both predictable and slow going.

Riveting narrative and excellent performance
Excellent crime fiction which subverts many conventions of the genre. Loved how she challenged our perceptions of criminals. She forces us to examine our perspective of criminals as innately “ bad people “ or whether they are just ordinary everyday people who made a poor choice or fell into a series of difficult circumstances. Love that it’s read by the author herself; and gives a fresh take on the genre. Loved the characterization of the female protagonist as both strong willed / determined as well as human with many foibles. Really a great audio book which I couldn’t stop listening to.

Good Book
Fabulous story and the narrator was very good too. Just the audio itself had a constant clicking sound which was rather annoying and defused my enjoyment of the audio.

Gripping
As they come, I find audiobooks extremely hard to concentrate on. The two things that hold my attention are 1. An exciting, fast paced story line and 2. A good narrator. This book had both. Catherine Steadman writes beautifully and speaks equally so. The story itself was intriguing, different and captivating. Would highly recommend.

So intense! Loved it
I loved this audio book. I usually listen to books while going to sleep, but this one has me holding my breath and hitting the “extend sleep timer” button again and again and again!
So many twists and it had me on the edge of my seat (pillow). Highly recommend
