About the Book

Book:  Finding Common Ground: One Octogenarian’s Quest to Help Our Nation Heal

Author: Robynne Elizabeth Miller & Marilyn Siden

Genre: Narrative Nonfiction/Memoir

Release date: April 2, 2021

Ebook version for CLBecause she’d had enough. Enough anger. Enough hatred. Enough division.

Marilyn Siden has lived through much: the aftermath of World War II, Korea, and the horror of Vietnam. She’s navigated good political administrations and struggling ones, a thriving economy and want. Her eight decades of experience living in the US have shown her the best America has to offer and, unfortunately, the worst. But she never thought America would become a place of vitriol and despair.

So, she decided to do something about it.

Through a series of epic journeys across America, Marilyn discovered what she was after: practical advice on how to help our nation heal.

But she found something she wasn’t expecting . . . something far more powerful.

Marilyn found our common ground.

"Finding Common Ground: One Octogenarian’s Quest to Help Our Nation Heal" by Robynne Elizabeth Miller & Marilyn Siden was an interesting book to read! I really thought I wouldn't like this book and was prepared to be reading a long bored and hard to understand novel. But, I am so happy to say that wasn't the case.

This book clearly shows that most American people regardless of age, background, religion and whether fincially wealthy or poor, want the same thing to be respected and heard. 

I really liked how the book in divided into different areas and the different examples of her experiences the author shared. 

This book shares that food and music and flowers and just being kind goes a long way toward helping our Nation heal.

I was given a complimentary copy by the author and Celebrate Lit and these opinions are my own.

Taking this journey at nearly 80 and crossing the country in search of practical solutions to start reversing the hatred and hurt blanketing our nation was challenging.
