los primeros capitulos no los disfrute tanto, fueron un poco caoticos pero la parte de los textos sobre todo fue lo que más me gustó, lo recomiendo harto es entrete, rápido de leer.

really short but it reminds me a lot of interactive fiction games. a few of the questions here even reminded me of my own writing style when i write games. it was cute that there’s an answer sheet included. i think the fill in the blank section was my favorite, just because of how small choices could change the way a sentence read completely. if it were longer, i might not see myself showing it to other people to read; however since it’s so short i would recommend it to anyone. and then point them in the direction of interactive fiction hahaha

favorite line:

“50. Last night I dreamed that you were a dog, and I was a dog, and we were barking together.”

Multiple Choice gives readers the ability to play with reading. Each read through with different multiple choice options is like going through alternate universes.

This was the kind of book I needed, just to float in a space for a short while
