We're less than 2 weeks away from Jordan Peterson's sequel to 12 Rules for Life. Check out my review of one of the best-selling books of 2018.

As you read 12 Rules, Jordan Peterson feels like a wise father, like he does if you’ve ever listened to him live or on a screen.

He writes like he talks, rambling and all. But this doesn’t hurt the reading. It proves rewarding, in fact, if you don’t mind joining him down some fascinating rabbit holes.

He’ll take you on some wild adventures, some of which don’t seem immediately relevant to the Rule at hand. But he manages to bring things around, and the monologues add depth and perspective to said Rule.

I really enjoyed soaking it all in and following him on his many rabbit holes. If you like your literature more to the point, you probably won’t enjoy this read. But if you have some time to just sit and soak in some deep and culturally relevant ramblings, you’ll benefit.

And that’s what these ramblings are. From postmodernism to social constructivism to a bunch of religious ideas, you’ll be amazed at how out of left field some of the stuff is. But I think you’ll find it fascinating how it all ties together and really makes you think about some of what you take for granted.

Contrary to popular opinion, Jordan Peterson is not some “alt-right” extremist who’s “out to get” the LGBTQ+ community or the like. Like I said before, he feels like a wise father who comes at you with understanding and balance. You’ll likely find yourself challenged regardless of where you’re coming from on any political or religious spectrums.
