"I couldn’t put this book down! It’s insightful, incisive, hilarious, and hard-hitting all the same time—not to mention incredibly helpful. I hope everyone reads it."
"The most creative effort I have for more couples to learn how to communicate effectively. The illustrations and text, together, brilliantly demonstrate the various traps couples fall into and playfully educate about solutions that can transform a relationship. This book will save many marriages."
"Stop the Fight! , Michelle Brody’s deeply thought-out, and yet entirely accessible, new book on how to stop fights between spouses made me feel oddly exposed and greatly relieved at the same time. Her understanding of how couples irrationally attack each other under stress is eerily familiar. So much so, I hoped my kids weren’t reading the accompanying cartoons over my shoulder, for fear they’d scream, ‘Mom! That’s just like you and Dad!’ A great read for any couple ready to break bad habits but don’t want the earnestness of most prescriptive books on improving your marriage."
"All relationships have conflicts eventually. Fighting may be a learning experience or a potential disaster. Stop the Fight! gives readers clear, easy tools to use in order to make these conversations productive and win-win! Great job, Michelle Brod"
Drs. Joni Frater and Esther Lastique
"Michelle Brody has given couples not a map, but a GPS to help them resolve their issues. It is user-friendly, solid advice that will allow any couple willing to invest the time to make their lives whole again."
"I love Stop the Fight! —the insights and anecdotes are practical and applicable to real-life relationships, and the clever cartoons make sure the points stick."
"Stop the Fight! breathes new life into the tired field of self-help books. It creatively delivers real solutions to serious problems in a package wrapped with pictures and laughter. Transforming your relationship doesn’t need to be a tedious chore, it can happen in the enjoyment of reading these pages together."
"A fun and clever way of helping couples with conflict resolution."
"Research has proven that every relationship has at least nine irreconcilable differences. For many couples this results in fighting and arguing. The really good news is this: The book you hold in your hands will guide you to a new way of building a deep, loving relationship without all the yelling, shaming, and blaming. Highly recommended."
"Stop The Fight! digs into the dynamics of unhappy marriages and emerges with guidelines that are clear and instantly applicable. All this with charming illustrations. What a gift to couples everywhere who struggle to live less annoyingly ever after!"
"Stop the Fight! gives you timeless tools to turn arguments into avenues for intimacy. Unlike other books on building and repairing relationships Dr. Brody gives us numerous visual illustrations. More than words you see creative cartoons that vividly bring to life the wise advice given. I highly recommend this book to anyone, or any couple, that wants to stop the fight!"
