Paths Too Short
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
You make one or two choices and the book is over. They should only have a few endings and make each path longer.

My 9-year-old LOVES these
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
We bought these books for our son because we remembered how much we loved them at his age. They are much quicker reads than I remember, but he loves them, so they get 5 stars. One book takes him less than 45 minutes to get through. He hasn’t gotten to the stage where he goes back and makes different choices yet, but I’m sure he’ll become even more fond of them then.

NOT the original books
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
My children have been enjoying some of my old Choose Your Own Adventure books from the 80′s, so when I saw this rerelease of several classic books for such a reasonable price, I bought it for them. Well, apparently R.A. Montgomery wasn’t able to get the rights on the original illustrations, so he had a bunch of freelance designers from Thailand draw replacement pictures for each of them, and they are AWFUL. Not just ‘different,’ but shockingly, unignorably BAD — they look like cartoons drawn carelessly by teenagers, with no sense of proportion, anatomy, lighting, or anything else. The drawings in “Mystery of the Maya” are not bad but most of the others are so terrible they render the books unreadable. Leaving them unillustrated would have been better than this. Find used copies of the originals (most of which are for sale cheap on Amazon) or just pick something else to read.

The Never-Ending Adventure
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Choose your own Adventure books are unbelievably exciting! Who doesn’t love a book where you can choose what you want to do? And you can die twenty different ways! You can also triumph too! This is a great book series for kids of all ages- even adults who are kids at heart!

Really good choice for the older kids that dont like to read. My sons hate to read but, these books you cant keep them out of.

Great reading for people of all ages
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
We have read Choose Your Own Adventure 1-6, and our 7 year old son, my husband & I were glued to every book. The books are well written, interesting & intriguing. Not too scary but gripping. We highly reccomend these books to everyone. They can be read & reread, a real plus.

Happy but surprised

These are not quite the ‘choose your own adventures’ of MY youth, but they are still great for kids!

Choose Your Own Adventure
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
These books are fantastic – I have fond memories of them from my childhood. As a school teacher, they are a wonderful read aloud. I let the children vote everytime there is a choice. They think they’re great!
