If you like Neil Patrick Harris, he wrote a super unique and quirky Choose Your Own Autobiography! I loved it!

There are a bunch you can get either through amazon or through used booksellers. I got my husband a set for Christmas since they were his favorites as a kid. Didn’t cost me much at all!

This one is basically a choose your own adventure for adults. It’s been years since I read it, but I remember enjoying it 🙂

@Leann have you read any choose your own adventure books?

@Andrew i have not, which is why I’m following this post! I didn’t even know they were a thing (I’ve seen some tv shows but never in books), which is why if there’s a popular one a lot of people recommend and really liked, I’d start with that one first!

@Leann
Seriously, you’ll get a pretty good idea of if you’ll be interested in a given CYOA from the title.
Some plot lines are better than others, and there are a lot of … well, choices.
Recommending any given CYOA is like reccomending any ten books, sone of which are straight trash, some of which are great.

@Andrew I’d just much rather go for one that’s well loved if I have the option. If I pick one and hate it then it’ll turn me off CYOA, but it could just be that I picked a super shitty one! If I pick one that most people love (and I’m pretty generic, I usually love what the majority loves) and I still hate it then at least I know CYOA just isn’t for me, rather than just picking a really shitty CYOA. Idk if that made sense, I exhausted ?

Goosebumps had those. I remember our teacher wouldn’t let them count toward our yearly book goal.

My colleague wrote a book called Choose your Own Disaster and it’s part-memoir, part-Choose your own adventure book. Supposed to be very funny
