Avidly Reads Screen Time by Phillip Maciak
4.0
hopeful informative reflective fast-paced

I am so glad this book exists. It's thoughtful and funny and is not trying to tell you what to do, but taking seriously the idea that what and how we watch and relate to screens is itself worth looking at with curiosity and interest and not turning it into a moral panic.
I listen to enough You're Wrong About to find the history of a moral panic fascinating already, but Maciak talks about it without making it about the panic, but instead about the larger story of being human.
I really liked it.
