review 1: Some pretty funny moments in this compilation of stories of a stay-at-home Dad, adjusting to getting older. The author's unique voice made the tales fun to listen to.However, there were some entries which were repetitious (Aloof Hipster Dad, Dear Lower Extremity or something like that - I listened on audio and can't look it up, and continuous mention of a blog) and after awhile I just found them annoying.But, for the most part the stories were enjoyable, funny and let me have a peek into the author's day to day adventures of trying to cope, just like the rest of us.
review 2: I quite enjoyed this. I actually listened to it as an audiobook, and I really dislike audiobooks. Listened while on a long drive, (returning from Florida in our new minivan) and it held ... moremy attention. As a part-time and wannabe stay-at-home dad, lots of the stories I found funny and very relevant. It definitely has something of a New York-centric bent to it, but its fairly clear that it is going to from the beginning. less
