Choose and lose

For some reason today (maybe gym-related exhaustion?) my mind wandered back to Choose Your Own Adventures. They were books in which you had to make choices (go down the dark, spooky hall or return to camp?) and the choices would lead to different outcomes. Most of the outcomes were death. No really. We were hardy kids back then, lemme tell you. A little grim dismemberment never stopped us from picking the book right back up and going down the(creepy, ghost littered) garden path again! No sir.

So I went online to see what I could find in the Choose Your Own Adventure empire nowadays and I found a site dedicated to the books' covers, creatively reimagined.

I think this is my favorite thus far.
