I am interested in the anti-smartphone topic, but you did the best job I have ever seen. Now I understand more about the shift happened to the generation.
I know exactly that if the one used to not read for pleasure, he will never start doing this in adulthood. When I see this disaster and my country Ukraine closes libraries and burn Russian literature I want to cry. I do not believe it is possible to read a book on a smartphone which tends to pop up random notifications at least several times a day.
