The Mobile Rehab

By Winnie D. Pagora

Four teenagers are stranded in a foreign land-without their mobile devices. Can they survive?

Nineteen-year-old Rory Matthews is a self-proclaimed cell phone addict. When his unhealthy attachment to smartphones gets out of hand, he signs up for the viral "Mobile Rehab" in Hong Kong.

Nineteen-year-old Keira Delgado catches her boyfriend of three years cheating on her. Angry and upset, she impulsively books a ticket to Hong Kong forgetting her mobile phone at home.

When Rory witnesses Keira struggling to manage alone without her phone in the foreign land, he convinces her to join the Mobile Rehab program with him and two other teenagers.

Soon, the four realize that the program is not as shiny as it seems in its social media advertisement. Stranded in an unknown country, the four teenagers must learn to adapt to their new nondigital lives without any help for two weeks.

Can they survive all the challenges on their own? Or will they give up and run back home to their cushy lives? Can they see this "rehab" as an opportunity to overcome their device attachments and learn to rely on each other and themselves?

Navigating the awkward truths of offline life, The Mobile Rehab is a fun read packed with laugh-out-loud humor, heart-warming friendships, swoon-worthy crushes, and triumphant moments of self-discovery.
