Feminist horror seems to have common veins that I am not a fan of - a very damaged female protagonist who regains power after being abused in some way shape or form. The first couple of times had some variation, but I'm feeling the same problem with white male authors: the books are just very similar at the core.

Not bad for pop-sci, and definitely an important, if not seminal, topic. The central premise is one most likely agree on - except apparently other researchers. The book spends too much time fighting counter arguments. As an academic, I know we struggle with this, but just say "see my website with in depth evidence and counters to common arguments", and be done with it.

Very enjoyable read. I'd consider this my top read of the year so far, which I guess I concluded while writing this review.
Overall, it gave me a feeling of content that I constantly chase in books.
