How to Break Up with Your Phone by Catherine Price

3.5

Oh, the irony of me reading How To Break Up With Your Phone on an app on my phone whilst I’m struggling to sleep. This book isn’t about completely abandoning technology, but establishing boundaries with it. Not letting it rule us and control our lives. This can be extra hard for those of us, like me, who use it as a crutch for my anxiety and to self soothe. The modern cellphone really does appeal to my ADHD brain especially. 

I try to have a Digital Detox before bed most evenings now and read either a physical book or, on my Kindle devices. If I do reach for my phone, I have a variety of reading apps like the Kindle to carry on with those books, this Headway app for non-fiction learning specifically, and Shonen Jump for Manga.

Whilst this may not contain a vast amount of new information, I agreed with most of the points raised here, even if sometimes they were posed in a bit of a self-righteous way from the author.
