Some of the chapters, specifically "Everyone's (Second) Favourite Dead Jew", "On Rescuing Jews and Others", and "Dead American Jews, Part Three: Turning the Page" were interesting and well researched explanations of the Christian obsession with dead jews.
However, a large majority of the chapters are tainted by the authors very clear pro-Israel feelings. On multiple occasions she conflates antisemitism and antizionism, including comparing the BDS movement to Nazi Germany while refusing to make the same comparison with mass shooters. Additionally, the author makes some shitty comments less/dif erently observant jews, impling that they are essentially collaborators with antisemites and degrading yhe the jewish people.
