Actually, I'd give it a 3.5 if possible. A very cute story by an author I hadn't heard of, but will now follow. Daisy, a precocious 12 year old, decides to test her family on how they behave when they don't understand something out of the ordinary. From there, she becomes a blogger to follow as she blogs about how to get people to stop being so greedy, following her dad's advice about his pet peeve. He sold out his company to make a lot of money and now feels guilty about it. He points out to her situations where others in corporations hurt many to enrich a few. Daisy takes it from there.

Definitely cute if you are not one who is being called out here. A bit simplistic, but look past that and enjoy. Thanks NetGalley for an advance reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

Good read. The author wrote a story that was interesting and moved at a pace that kept me engaged. The characters were easy to invest in.

Where do I start?! I tried liking this book, it seemed to be more of an amateurish book, and a bit corny.

Thanks to author,publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read this book. While I got the book for free,it had no bearing on the rating I gave it.

Overall Rating = 4.75

Daisy in the Doghouse by Joe Barrett (Managed Care, 2018) is a story revolving primarily around Daisy, a twelve-year-old girl, and her father Jack, currently a stay-at-home dad. The chemistry between the two is amazing and sets up some great humor throughout the story as they explore the limits of a blog, created by none other than Daisy herself. The blog was set up as a way for Daisy to create some sly little experiments targeted at her family to show some social awkwardness and silly humor. It is briefly used for just that purpose until her father, Jack, and the rest of the family find out. Her father hijacks the following his daughter has established as a platform to communicate the disgust he has for the corporate world to the American youth. This ultimately leads to a system that allows visibility and accountability to those that offer help and those that don’t.
Sublime Line: “This is an amazingly well-written novel that gives the reader a good dose of laughter and reminds us that greed should take a back seat to helping others.”
