I love that the author wrote with this unique perspective! We don't see books that come from the perspective of fathers much in literature, let alone the perspective of someone who does not actually want to be a father. It is definitely a serious topic, but it's nice that it still is humorous. This sounds like an interesting book! Great job on the review!

Great job on the review :) The plot of this book certainly seems unique. I've never heard of a book that is from the guy's perspective in this type of situation, although after reading the free sample, I don't think this is my cup of tea, but I'm glad you enjoyed it.

The Daddy Game by Shadez is a Fiction which looks lengthy at times but interesting because of its unique style of writing. Looking forward to read it soon. Congrats on being the BOTD..:)

Thank you for this review! I'm not into that type of book so I probably won't be reading it though.

What an interesting concept for the book. Being dragged into being a father by essentially a crazy woman, but keeping the story light and numerous sounds like a recipe for a fun read. I'm sure it can't be easy to maintain that throughout a story. Congrats on the great review and thank you!

Great review. I love how in depth you got and how you laid out the good the bad etc. This doesn't sound like a book that will be my cup of tea but I can think of some fellow readers who will. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for the honest review! This isn't a typical book for me but having a thorough review is very helpful in deciding whether to branch out. I am always interested in stories with unreliable or unlikeable narrators. :)

Sorry this book isn't for me. The man is just as at fault as the woman. If he didn't want any children he should have kept it in his pants. He knew from the start she wanted a relationship and lied to her just to get into her pants. This is just two stupid people not safe guarding their life.

This review was very good as well as very honest. I did get this one to put on my TBR shelf. Just from reading the sample the hero came across as irritating. I do want to read more to see what kind of attitude the mom had.
Congrats to the author on BOTD.

This definitely sounds like an entertaining and humorous read. I agree with you about the originality of the storyline as I haven't seen too many books around about this kind of situation. Great review!

I'm interested in how the humor in this book plays out for the subject matter being so serious. Sounds like an entertaining book. Thanks for the great review.

Definitely interesting to hear the other side of the equation when it comes to an unplanned pregnancy. It is rare that we read about the males point of view. Nicely done!
