Stop Looking at Your Phone by Son of Alan

DNF

Stop Looking at Your Phone by Son of Alan wasn’t quite what I was expecting. It’s literally panels of correct and incorrect mobile device etiquette (as envisioned by the author). I thought there would be more humour involved, but it fell flat for me. Everything felt too cut and dried, and the art seemed fuzzy, lacking sharp edges. Part of that nay have been the egalley formatting though.

I kinda felt judged at times. Yes, I agree people can get too involved with their phones/ devices, but this made it feel we should never use them. I disagree. My entire current nuclear family are introverts to some degree or another. We can sit in comfortable silence, reading, working, playing games. We do set limits. Meals are for conversing, for one. Overall, this just wasn’t my cuppa, and falls under the rarely used ‘DNF’ category for me.

***Many thanks to Netgalley and Andrews McMeel for providing an egalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.
