Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The miracle man doesn't delivers.
Review: This novel was originally issued under the title "Coming Attractions." I have the feeling Flagg was trying to ride the wave of the success of "Fried Green Tomatoes..." and reissued this book under the new - and longer - title. Unfortunately, Fannie flags here, weaving a loose fabric of weak characters that never grabbed me or made me care about them. Full of mediocre plot twists, the story follows an old rainbow to an empty pot as Daisy Fay not so much hunts for but rides like a piece of driftwood into the stagnant and sluggish backwaters of success and acceptance.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I loved it!
Review: This book was great. It is hard to put it down once you get started. I found myself laughing out loud several times. Read it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful! What a Great Story!
Review: Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man was an easy book to get pulled into. With such interesting characters and the humorous visual imagery, I hated to put it down! I loved that it had me laughing outloud many times. I will certainly recommend Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man to friends.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A delight!
Review: At first I thought, "Why am I reading this book?" I just couldn't get interested in a sad, silly little girl and her family problems. After a little while, I couldn't put the book down. It's quirky, the characters are strange; yet, you really start to like Daisy Fae. You end up wanting the best for her. A good read, but not quite up to "Fried Green Tomatoes".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I didn't know whether to laugh or cry!
Review: Fannie Flag captured me with this book. Daisy Fay's adventures are wild and outlandish as well as real and ordinary. The people she meets in her life could be your next door neighbor or your best friend. Everyone will find a connection in this book!!!! I would rate it higher than five stars if I could.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Laugh-Out-Loud Funny!
Review: Just what I needed after finishing a couple of heavy novels. Journal-entry style is fun, and the girls Daisy Fay hooks up with toward the end remind me of friends I've had! This book is a scream.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best books I've ever read!
Review: If you love laughing out loud, this is a book for you. I read constantly: so many books, so little time. Some people want to compare Daisy Fay and the miracle Man with Fried Green Tomatoes. Don't! It's unfair to both of these great stories. I loved them both for entirely different reasons. That's what makes a super author. Read this -- you won't be sorry!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I loved this book
Review: This is one of the funniest books I have ever read! Some of the journal entries made me laugh so hard, I cried! This is a very enjoyable coming of age story, and I found I did not want to put the book down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than Prozac
Review: Whenever I am feeling down, I reread this book. It always cheers me up and makes me laugh out loud.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A delightful and easy to read book.
Review: To sum it up, if you want to read a light book that is funny and witty with interesting characters this is a great book. I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to reading another novel from Fannie Flagg. I really liked the character of Daisy Fay's father a real boozie get rich quick schemer and what lengths he goes too to try and achieve this. There are also some other wonderful and colourful characters in the story. An enjoyable read.
