📚✨ Book: Educated by Tara Westover
📍☘️ Location: PJ McIntyre’s
We’re kicking off 2026 with a powerful, conversation-rich memoir: Educated by Tara Westover. It’s the perfect “New Year, New You” read, reflective, inspiring, and full of themes that make us think about identity, resilience, and the ways we shape our own lives.
And in true West Park fashion, we’re starting the year together at PJ McIntyre’s, our most popular gathering spot.
📚 ABOUT THE READ
Educated is a bestselling memoir about growing up off-the-grid in rural Idaho and finding the courage to pursue a life beyond the one you were raised in. It’s a vulnerable, thought-provoking story of family, identity, and the power of education.
We’ll explore the moments that moved or challenged you, the tension between roots and reinvention, and the emotional layers of memoirs — what’s said, what’s unsaid, and what lingers long after you finish reading.
Bring your reflections, your favorite quotes, and an open mind. It’s going to be a meaningful conversation.
🤗 JOIN US
