How to Leave a Group Chat by Louisa Guise is published as an audiobook

How to Leave a Group Chat is Louisa’s first published book about communication and instant messengers. This ground-breaking non-fiction 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 school after school banning phones in class, a campaign group Smartphone Free Childhood established last year to discourage 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.

Louisa has been working hard to promote her debut book. Starting with the Abergavenny Writing Festival before How to Leave a Group Chat was even published, Louisa launched the book at an Ask the Author Event at her local bookshop Fourbears Books, and has since held talks at libraries, including her childhood haunt Cardiff Central Library where How to Leave a Group Chat is available to loan, literary festivals including the Wolverhampton Literature Festival and she spoke as part of a lineup alongside Mike Berners Lee and Stuart Gillespie at the prestigious Berwins Salon North Event in Harrogate last April.

How to Leave a Group Chat was first published as a paperback and e-book by the Book Guild on Friday 28th June 2024. Get your audiobook copy from all good streaming sites including Libro.fm.
