Not yet listened to the book, will add short review when I have done so. This might not be the best book but it's the one I could purchase and was available in my region.
I have been struggling on my video entertainment detox challenge for months now because I can't seem to stop watching youtube, reels, and many other things that I say I will. Dropping gaming was easiest but reels and especially specific youtube content has been a nightmare and I even failed my latest challenge on 17th Oct 2026.
So, this time, I am, reluctantly reading up on it instead of just brute forcing my way to getting rid of all video entertainment with books like these.
