I don't know that it's entirely accurate to call it a memoir, either. It certainly has sections in which the author tells stories of her own life, but there are many more pieces about current events in the US (at the time of publication) and US politics and US culture that don't go into personal details at all. It also assumes the reader understands most of these references, so you ought to be familiar with what was going on in the US during the Obama and Trump eras.
For me, the book felt most similar to browsing through the author's social media feed. It features a variety of content, much of it seeming to be targeted to an audience that understands her references and shares her opinions.
