The book is a bit frenetic and sometimes jumps around, but that seems to be exactly how Mona speaks in interviews and lectures.
I love her message, it is so bang on, her politics is beautiful to read.
That isn't to say I agree on all points, I think particularly in the Violence chapter that there is a more nuanced argument to be had there about the adoption and reclaiming of violence and how that might just be sort of out-patriarching the patriarchy, but still I found it really thought provoking.
