This is great idea. Jessica is so great, and I'm glad you liked the episode. I have so many ideas about books you could use for different topics. You know this is very much my jam. Let me know if you ever need a suggestion!

I do know it and I would love suggestions! Maybe like 3 to kick off this project’s TBR?

I’ve been writing a monthly column about election issues all year. Maybe start there? https://shereads.com/voter-literacy-with-traci-october-wrap-up/

I love this Deedi! I also recently read WHAT IF WE GET IT RIGHT and have been thinking a lot about my own Venn diagram. It’s such a useful framework!

I absolutely love this idea and I can't wait to see what you come up with!

I don't know if you're looking for fiction books for Conversation Pushers, but I do have a good number of recommendations if you ever want to check them out.

Also, in terms of non-fiction books, I know White Rural Rage by Tom Schaller and Paul Waldman had some interesting points that I think could make some good conversations for Conversation Pushers.
