Choose Your Own Post

The Choose Your Own Adventure book was interactive because it was the reader of the book who got to decide plot changes and make choices that affected how it would turn out. You, the reader, could choose different endings different times and see where different choices led you. Not all of the endings were happy though none of the endings were thoroughly happy or thoroughly unhappy. For example some people would be horrified by the ending where you die and turn into a vampire but other people would find it badass.

The two kinds of space are 3D (it's a book) and inner space (of the mental variety). Within the 3D space, it isn't linear there are many different story lines and several possible endings. These different parts of the book are usually not read once but several times. It is also outer space because that's something the book deals with (The title is Space Vampire)

This is a really cool experience because i saw what would happen if I did certain choices and the first time I usually did what I myself would do in this situation, and after that, I did things that were increasingly less in character for me. It was very fun but I don't think that I will pursue reading more of these choose your own adventure book just because I probably won't get around to it but who knows? I have rediscovered a lot of other interests I had as a boy.


This got me to think about the choices I make in life and how they affect me. It also got me to think about the fact that authors sometimes choose different consequences for different actions depending on the author's belief. So what you choose may be considered a good thing or a bad thing depending on a person's belief. And even if someone makes a good choice, sometimes life isn't fair, but other times it is.
