About this listen

While most of her peers were obsessed with their iPhones, Instagramming and Snapchatting their lives, and glued to streaming TV, 19-year-old Amy Crouch was growing up with minimal technology. In My Tech-Wise Life, she and her father, Andy Crouch, share how intentional and controlled use of modern devices, apps, and services has helped her avoid many of the negative experiences of her peers and cultivate positive experiences interacting with the real world.

With writing that connects on a teen-to-teen level, Amy and Andy unpack tech temptations - such as the temptation to distract ourselves from any potentially boring or awkward situation or to stay up-to-date with every notification and trend - and then offer antidotes that lead to more patience, wisdom, honesty, and wonder in life.

If you're in high school or college and devices and social media are affecting your friendships and family life, your sense of self-worth, or even how well you think you know yourself, this book will help you reevaluate your relationship with technology - and renew your relationship with the world around you.

Overall I would say it is worth it to give this book a listen for the practical advice and tips you get from some of what is said. I would say sometimes she would be a bit too general about how people live and assuming but overall she made valid and true points. Definitely will use some of what I have heard and I already have as a matter of fact. But definitely some parts that could be condensed or just left out because they are too general or off topic.

Good Listen with Good Practical Tips

Lovely writing, and amazing narration! The book's progression was great, gradually moving deeper and deeper until talking about the Sabbath. And the narrators had really great and warm voices!

Amazing!
