I Never Thought of It That Way by Monica Guzmán

5.0

---

This book really blew me away. Monica Guzman uses her own experiences to create the perfect guide for today’s divided world.

If you’re living through all the division and misinformation right now, this book is a must-read. It gives you tools to stay curious and have better conversations with others.

I honestly think reading this book and using its advice could save some important relationships. When you understand the systems that divide us, it helps you fight back.

Since starting this book, I’ve found myself asking, “What am I missing?” and looking for those “I never thought of it that way” moments—whether it’s small stuff like a billboard or bigger things like tough political talks with my family.

I’m far left, and my family is far right, so this book hit home for me. Monica Guzman definitely saw a need in today’s world and filled it. I really appreciate the honesty and kindness in her writing.
