Description

This art-driven choose-your-own-path book for Millennials is a nostalgia-inspired journey full of personality, tongue-in-cheek wordplay, and hip illustrations. It begins with a simple question: "Is it a weekend or a week day?" From there, each page leads readers down a clever, humorous path of their own making: Can they find a seat in the human Tetris of the subway? How will they navigate a sidewalk maze, a bad date, or a party full of cookie-cutter couples-and where will those decisions lead them? Bringing levity and sly self-reflection to the humdrum details of "adulting," IN A DAZE WORK encourages readers to find the extraordinary (or at least hilarious) in the seemingly unremarkable.
