I didn't do much better in this than I usually do in the adventure books!. I did reach my goal of 8 books but as I ran in circles I only visited 6 different places.
October - November 2015
When I was kid, I loved the Choose Your Own Adventure books where I could go in different directions to get a different story. This challenge is a Rawkatier version with a Halloween theme.
Start at the front of the house and then explore the rest by the decisions made in your reading. Try to read your books in the order of your journey, but no one will be checking if you read something out of order. You can leave it up to fate by not looking ahead until you finish your current book or plan your path first.
Although this is getting posted late, any books started on or after October 1st will count for this challenge.
