I did really like the concept of this book where you get to choose your own storyline and it’s a much more immersive reading experience. There are many options on how to make the story come together and I found myself going back and forth at certain points to see who it would’ve turned out if I choose something else. Here we start the story going to WoodsWorld on an annual family holiday but it seems you’re gonna be stuck with your parent’s friends and their needy son Todd. The WoodsWorld bullies takes Todd’s red box of something (don’t remember, don’t care) so you decide to go and look for it. The choices aren’t as in your own control as the others in the series I feel and more just like ohh this is happening instead. The plot was quite confusing, hard to follow and I dunno just not very rational (for the context, obvs it’s not rational as about werewolves). So Yhh, the writing wasn’t good, the characters all quite unlikable and weren’t realised so not for me.
