"Safe People: How to Find Relationships that are Good for You and Avoid Those That Aren't" is a book that aims to guide readers in identifying and cultivating healthy relationships. Written by two authors who are experts in their respective fields, the book promises to provide evidence-based strategies. However, some readers have expressed disappointment as they were expecting a book based on facts and data, only to find that it is heavily influenced by religious teachings. This reliance on religious references and quotations from the Bible may deter individuals who do not resonate with such content. Critics argue that these elements are unnecessary and only tangentially related to the book's main points. Despite this criticism, other readers find the book to be thought-provoking and helpful. They appreciate the insights into negative patterns and the understanding of how to become a safer person. The book is noted to be beneficial for personal reflection as well as group discussions. One reviewer mentions that reading this book earlier could have helped them avoid pain, highlighting the practicality and relevance of its teachings. However, another reviewer points out that in the current post-pandemic world, finding safe people has become increasingly difficult, as people have become more guarded and isolated. In summary, "Safe People" offers valuable principles for fostering healthy relationships, but some readers may be put off by the heavy religious influence throughout the book. It can be a useful resource for those seeking personal growth and improved relationship dynamics.
