The Only Girl in the World by Maude Julien (kind of disturbing but well done and fascinating)

Sociopath by Patric Gagne - very interesting and eye-opening

Don't Leave Me This Way: Or When I Get Back on My Feet You'll Be Sorry by Julia Fox Garrison - funny and raw - about a woman who has a stroke and defies the medical odds

I read it a while ago so I dont remember all the details but I dont think thats the premise at all.

she came from nothing, living off the grid with no education, no medical care, no nothing, and managed to get out and build herself a life, part of which included going to university and getting an education.
thats the point of the book. not whether university is great or not.

Getting confused here, which book are u referring to? Sounds interesting
