In an age where digital connection is constant, understanding the psychological effects of social media has never been more critical. Social Media Platforms are deeply embedded in everyday life, influencing how we connect, communicate, and perceive ourselves. The books recommended in this section are designed to spark meaningful conversations about the relationship between social media and mental health. These Reading Club topics invite readers to reflect on digital habits and explore strategies for cultivating healthier online experiences. We are pleased to be featuring three new books related to this topic:

• The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt
• Stolen Focus by Johann Hari
• Girls on the Brink by Donna Jackson Nakazawa

Books and health information resources are available on our Reading Club website.
