This game is bringing back all the childhood feels. I loved these books as a kid! Have you seen/played this game?

I'm excited to do the #booked2019 challenge! Thanks to @Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft and @BarbaraTheBibliophage for hosting! Want to join the fun? Sign up here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSceXqDkF5zLj75CJucLw1d6gq_s7PLK7OR-mmV6...
I'm joining @LazyDays for #thegreatwideopen swap! Camping is my jam (when I can drag my husband out to go with me). And yes, I've read Wild. 😂😂
The boys got these books - and also received a free book (the Mountain Bike Mania) - from Gold Beach Books
@cobwebmoth has a really cool #chooseyourowngiveway! I choose the box of goodies because it sounds fun! Thanks for the chance!
Talk about generous @cobwebmoth ! What a sweet idea. If I won this #chooseyourowngiveaway I‘d want a box of goodies, I love surprises and getting to know people better through the things they love ♥️ far better than me having to narrow down my own book selections 🤣
Eeek! @cobwebmoth is doing an awesome #chooseyourowngiveaway! I would love 2 books from Book Depository. Thank you for doing this!! 😘😘😘
@cobwebmoth #chooseyourowngiveaway Wow! What a generous and fun giveaway, it‘s fun to imagine, for me, what might be in a box of goodies🤔 thank you for a chance!
Such a fantastic idea! I used to love those books when I was growing up too. I'll pick the goodies I think. I love a good surprise! #chooseyourowngiveaway @cobwebmoth
What a great idea for a giveaway, @cobwebmoth ! Hmm... I would choose 2 books from The Book Depository. 😘😘

I too loved the Choose Your Own Adventure books when I was growing up. I can‘t believe I never introduced my own girls to them. 🤦🏻♀️ I should remedy that now if I can; must call up the library‘s catalog and see. 👍
I‘d love to throw my name in the hat for this draw, but I‘d leave the prize determination up to you @cobwebmoth as I can‘t seem to decide between a gc or bookish goodies. Yes, such a clever and fun idea! 😁
Dark chocolate is the only choice

Fun article for those of you of a certain vintage who enjoyed reading in the Garden of Forking Paths.

Have too many books already from the library at home so stopped myself at just 1. Excited for my 8 year old to read his first choose your own adventure .... loved those books as a kid!
Finally got around to laminating all of my postcards from everyone. So grateful for the love I've been shown from people all around the world. I appreciate it so much and I really hope I can visit and meet all of you! 😄😄❤️ #postcardsaroundtheworld

#postcardsaroundtheworld
Yay! Can I get everyone to welcome my beautiful daughter @Ciara_Rosey to Litsy! This is my adventurous one, the lovely lady you all have been sending postcards to. I'm so proud of her, and so so happy that all of my babies love to read too (though I'm working on making them fanatical like me!) Welcome to Litsy baby.😘😘😘😘
Some more postcards for my baby girl from some of the most wonderful littens in the world! We have Singapore from @sisilia Rhein area of Germany from @Heideschrampf Hawaii from @DebinHawaii & Pennsylvania from our fearless #litmail leader @Robothugs She wants me to say she is so grateful & thankful for all your kindness, and she hopes to be able to meet you all one day. Much love from a humble sydneysider❤️❤️❤️❤️

This weekend was a blast for me. I house manage for a theatre and we are doing an adaptation of the choose your own adventure book Space Vampire. It was a great time and out of 12 chances (over the course of 3 performances), we only had one good ending. I cannot wait to see what happens next weekend. #chooseyourownadventure
#FunFridayPhoto - #middleschool #books I loved. I would curl up with my favourite #quilt that my great grandmother had made and #read these #books for hours. So many #endings. So many #adventures. #chooseyourownadventure #youngadult #classic #bookstagram @FranzenComesAlive #ListyFeature
Okay Littens, I need help! Do I read Hex by Thomas Olde Heuvelt, or Bird Box by Josh Malerman? #upnext #scaretober
And as long as I'm thinking about the 80's, how about the best 80's books that were #FullofAdventure and as great as any toy! You could get a different adventure ever time you read them, with outcomes personalized to the choices you made!
*Personally I'm still mad at the book testing/AR systems that essentially removed these popular reading motivators out of children's lives, they need a comeback with all the other 80's fades!

my 8 year old brought this home from school the other day. I never read these books when I was little so it was a lot of fun experiencing it with him for the first time. There is a bit of vandalism on the cover which made me sad, but at least this book survived 30 years in the public school system. I wonder if I can keep it???
Plus this awesomely cool heat-reactive redacted mug. Just add hot water and all the banned books can be read! 😉. @outofprint www.outofprintclothing.com
Plus what an awesome tote bag! Thanks so much @outofprint @24in48 Www.outofprintclothing.com
Got a wonderful package from @outofprint today. I can't wait to wear them!😀 Thank you so much @outofprint and @24in48 www.outofprintclothing.com
#augustofpages All Time Favorite books? That's almost impossible! I have so much love for so many different types of books. But I'm going with my first instinct here. The 1st books I absolutely LOVED, just had to COLLECT, & haven't been able to part with since, despite purging lots of books over the years. Book 1, I remember getting when they did a special presentation at school & searching every RIF table, Scholastic Sale flyer for yrs afterwards
My most unique shelf is probably this little table I found at a community sale awhile back. I have a bunch of my old childhood books shelved around its sides. #24in48 #readathon @Litsy #shelves
These are not Choose Your Own Adventure (although I loved those too when I was a bit older), but the "Read About Me" books weren't in the catalog to pick. For #funphotofriday these were my favorites as a youngster. My mom signed me up, gave them basic info about me, and they wrote me into the stories and adventures of the books that arrived each month. And strangely enough I was just talking about these with @KVanRead yesterday on Litsy!
