Such a disappointing read. For someone that claims to care as much about “data gaps” as she does, the massive gap in this book for people that are trans, gender fluid or non-binary is astonishing. Not to mention the very limited discussion of non-white races (only saw 2 mentions of black women in the entire book).

If you are a white cis woman that has no interest in intersectional feminism, then I guess this book might be for you. However, if you want an inclusive read that talks about trans and race issues as much as cis white women issues, then you can skip this, because you will finish the book with a very simplistic view of issues that are anything but simple.

If anything, she has managed to prove that just because a woman is included in the conversation, this does not guarantee that all women's views and issues will be represented in her speech.
