Went through the preview as I have no intention of buying the book since I do not want to contribute to the earnings of a woman who is causing so much damage to the feminist movement in Indian social circles. Additionally, I'd very much like to keep my brain intact; I've lost too many brain cells after sitting through her videos. The few pages of the book available in the review were very difficult to read since they were chock full of grammatical errors. Anecdotes serve as 'research' for her apparently, and there is absolutely no logical premise for any of the points she is attempting to deliver (much like the points she attempted to make in her video). At the beginning she says her book is story combined with theory but it seems to be only fiction and have no facts or even proper logic involved. Clearly, this book has not been edited - it is evident from her lack of response to counter-arguments on her videos (deleting comments offering constructive criticism, and only refuting trivial counter-arguments while refusing to engage with any of the logical arguments made against her points) that she is not open to incorporating feedback. She has also come out as transphobic - she said she's a 'normal' girl and not trans in her latest video, implying that trans women are not normal and other. I hope that with time and during the course of her future education, she comes to realise the grave damage she is causing, and that she learns to research.
