If you don't know what choose your own adventure books are(it literally in the name), they are books that tell a story, but it is you who controls how it goes. The mechanics of the book is simple, you only need to follow the page of the corresponding action. To better clarify, you read a paragraph then you are presented actions you can take. You decide what to do and once you finally decide there will be a page number connected to the action taken, that will then take you to a page of the book where it will say the result of your action. Pretty cool huh?
There have been a lot of Choose your own adventure or Game books. The most popular ones are written by Ian Livingstone and Steve Jackson , creator of the Fighting Fantasy series. Those books range from horrific titles like "House of Hell" to to whimsical fantasy like "Sorcery!". Lately some titles have been imported to phones, I personally recommend "Sorcery!" by Steve Jackson. By the books it has four parts, by the phone apps its still only at its third book, "The Seven Serpents"
