You scroll across an article, realizing not long after the
beginning that it’s written in second person. You scratch your head, wondering
who in their right mind would ever do that. That’s against the Geneva
Convention, you recall.
Okay, I’ll stop. But I do want to talk second person. Just
for a bit. You can shoot me later. But I’ve always had a soft spot for one
thing that came from second person. I think you know what it is: Choose Your
Own Adventure books. I loved them. I still do, actually. It’s just hard to find
them written for adults. And by hard, I mean nearly impossible.
But what do you think? Do you think it’s time for a Choose
Your Own Adventure comeback? I’d like to see that. Heck, I may even try my hand
at it. In a couple years. When I get through everything else I’m already
working on.
Cheers,
Voss

Hear, hear! I loved those books, too. :-)
Woot! Glad to know I'm not alone!
I've looked at the CYOA style books for older readers (YA-Adult), and they just aren't as good.
