Did not finish book. Stopped at 82%.
I don't appreciate any version of Feminism that ties my power as a woman to my ability to "bleed with the moon" or "birth new life" - as someone with PCOS, this doesn't leave much room for me...and it borders on TERF rhetoric.
This was a shallow and overly didactic vision and message - and the writing wasn't good or enjoyable. And I gave it a fair shot - over 250 pages!
