Liked the honest review. The book sounds interesting from the perspective of the dad taking care of the kiddos. Congrats on being BOTD. I think the cover is cute.

I haven't read a truly funny book in a while. Maybe I should try this one.

This sounds like a funny book, despite the problems in pacing. A stay-at-home dad with unruly kids sounds sounds hilarious. I could use a comedic book to spice up my e-shelf. Great job on the review!

This sounds like a cute book, even though it has a few faults. I think that I'll have to add this one to my to read list. Thanks for the nice review.

Thanks for the honest review. One thing that makes this story uncommon is the "at home Dad." Seems that his wife is a little overbearing and makes him look like a wimp. I may read the whole book someday. Congratulations to the author for BOTD,

Thank you for such a well-written review. I am a stay at home mom to three kids under the age of five so I'm sure I can relate. However, my husband is supportive and sweet unlike Liz.

Daddy 3.0 was not very interesting. The different names of the parents and children. The subject changed so many times that I just lost interest. Supermom wasn't really super either. It made me want to just stop reading it.

Great review, bookowlie! I enjoyed reading your thoughts, as always.

Given the sample on Amazon, I think the novel delivers on the promises of laughs. It's not too often a book can make you literally lol.

Congratulations to Mr Armstrong for a job well done. I look forward to reading more of Daddy 3.0

Great Review, I actually won a print copy of this book on GoodReads. I cannot wait to read it. I just Love Comedy Genre books. It sounds like the wife will make me hate her. I have a friend getting ready to have a baby and even though Her Hubby works I can see her acting like you portrayed the wife in your review. Good thing she doesn't live near me LOL. I also hope the mistakes don't bother me while reading this I really think I'll enjoy it. Thanks for sharing a review of it.

I hate it when a character has 'money problems' but is always throwing it around :doh:

Despite the issues, this sounds like an entertaining read :)

I like your review on Daddy 3.0 by Rob Armstrong. The book has a great setting of the San Francisco area. Thanks for the details and having no spoiler.

I love a book that makes you laugh! This one sounds great. I think I will like it even with the scenes being drawn out too much.

Same here; I'm currently struggling to get a single book read!! LOL, so I don't think I can give this one a chance. I'm glad no gender is excluded from the forums though.
