Meet the author event at Wolverhampton Literature Festival

The day after the event, Louisa will also be holding a book signing at local independent bookshop Blue Sheep Books in Wednesbury where you can either purchase books in the shop or pre-order via bookshop.org.

How to Leave a Group Chat is a book about communication and instant messengers. This ground-breaking popular psychology book helps you understand your relationship with your phone better, and in turn improve it so that you can become your best self. Smartphones and their use is a hot topic at the moment with schools banning phones in class, a campaign group Smartphone Free Childhood established earlier this year to ban children from using social media and reports of people increasingly turning away from more modern technology and instead buying simpler phones or even reverting back to polaroids and postcards. The book looks at changes in communication and behaviour, and why we have the relationship with our devices that we do.

At the Wolverhampton Literature Festival’s Meet the Author Event, Louisa will introduce herself and to talk about How to Leave a Group Chat as well as the issues raised within the book and how you can balance your relationship with your own smartphone. There will of course be plenty of time at the end to answer questions.

You can sign up to attend Louisa’s Meet the Author event at Wolverhampton Central Library (1.30pm) for free via the Wolverhampton Literature Festival’s website, and books are available to purchase from Waterstones.
