My Thoughts:

Who Are You Following by Sadie Robertson Huff is an eye-opening read on how social media affects confidence, happiness, and faith. While this isn’t a new revelation, Sadie’s approach to being more intentional about social media consumption is life-changing. Throughout Who Are You Following, Sadie encourages readers to think twice about the world they’re viewing through the social media lens. If you’re in need of a social media and soul cleanse, Who Are You Following is the perfect book for becoming a happier and more authentic you.

“The journey to being loved comes through being known. When we keep up the facade, when we present the best, filtered versions of ourselves, we prevent others from really knowing who we are. We are seen but not known.” (Who Are You Following, pg 50)
