Author Louisa Guise is holding a book signing at Book-ish in Abergavenny
Just after the release of her first non-fiction book How to Leave a Group Chat on Friday 28th June, Welsh author Louisa Guise will be headed to Abergavenny to do a book signing at independent bookshop Book-ish.
Book-ish have been very supportive of Louisa since she appeared at the 2024 Abergavenny Writing Festival on Saturday 20th April. Owen Lewis from Book-ish came to Louisa’s talk about How to Leave a Group chat and invited her to do the signing afterwards.
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 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.
This free event will be taking place at Book-ish Abergavenny on Saturday 6th July between 1pm and 3pm.
Order your copy of How to Leave a Group Chat from Book-ish and come along for the signing. Even if you can’t make it, Louisa will sign any copies that are ordered ahead of that date.
How to Leave a Group Chat is being published by the Book Guild on Friday 28th June 2024.
