Choose Your Own Adventure Books

We had the assignment of reading a choose your own adventure book over the weekend. We had to read it three times. Not as exciting as I had hoped. I read Escape by R.A. Montgomery. The book was in the first person, so, "I" was a leader of a spy mission in the year 2035, and I had to escape from behind enemy lines with 3 other people. The first time I read it, I was out of food in these mountains in enemy territory, and I was about to die. But, in two sentences, I was rescued and the story was over. The story took me about ten minutes to read. The second time through a similar ending occurred. I was saved in the last two sentences I read. I tried to make a few bad decisions, but no matter what I chose, I always made it out. The books were fun though, and they were interactive because I was participating in creating the story. The story couldn't finish without my help. The ending couldn't happen unless I chose how it happened.
