This was a book I read for my women’s group. Mostly, it’s pretty shallow at the beginning of the book. Making some very grandiose statements, I struggled to connect with the book meaningfully. It was shallow in its message and held ideas that felt wrong. There were chapters that talked about being inclusive of disability but also spoke of “there being a reason behind it… then Towards the latter half, it has some harmful and hurtful rhetoric about the LGBTQ community.
For a book that is meant to be aimed at women, it doesn’t feature many female-centred stories. It used the classic proof text method and honestly if you are looking for something uplifting look somewhere else.
