Synopsis

Choose your way to a perfect day with this adventurous book full of personality, tongue-in-cheek wordplay, and gorgeous illustrations. 
From small-talk to dating to death, In A Daze Work is an exciting, playful new spin on the minute and mundane decisions that make up your daily life. 
Each flip of the page puts you in control of the story: 
Will you stay in or go out?
Do you wake up or sleep in?
How will you navigate a bad date, or a party full of cookie-cutter couples (available in vanilla flavor only)? 
More importantly, where will your decisions take you? 
Bringing humor and sly self-reflection to the humdrum details of adulthood with hand-drawn illustrations and sharp wit, this relatable visual journey will help you find the extraordinary (or at least hilarious) moments in any day of the week.

My Thoughts

IN A DAZE WORK is clever, hilarious, and spot-on. I loved that as I "chose my own adventure", a new option or obstacle presented itself. And as days have passed and choices are made, I still haven't seen all that this book has to offer. This reveals a bigger picture that, maybe I need to make some new choices and take some chances in my every day life. 

I appreciate the humor depicted in every day life or making seemingly simple choices and were that can lead you. What's really funny is that I see myself as a social person, but with every path I choose, I avoided people at every turn. Now I wonder, is that what I do in real life?!

Favorite Quote:
"Hit the snooze button you know you want to" - pretty much how I start EVERY DAY

This book cracked me up. I love the subtle gems of humor, the illustrations, and the nostalgic feeling of reading a "choose your own adventure" book. IN A DAZE WORK would make a great gift for friends who enjoy office humor, friends stuck in the daily grind, and friends who just need a good laugh.
