| Summary: | "When you consider how many quadrillions of hours of human drudgery have been eradicated by the invention of the dishwasher, the washing machine, and (ahem) the fridge, is it absurd to imagine household appliances employing that same genius to fix the messy romantic lives of their hopless human owners? Daisy Parsloe is a mess. Her job's going badly, her love life is haphazard at best, and her elderly mother seems to be losing her mind. Even Daisy's smart technology appears to be judging her - the last text she received was from her fridge about some moldy potato salad. What Daisy doesn't know is that her appliances are also plotting. They've joined together, across the Internet of Things, to nudge Daisy in the right direction. But it isn't long before their well-meaning interference starts to get noticed and the race is on to find Daisy's Mr. Right before the plugs are pulled."-- |
