Here's an [@AtlasObscura](https://flipboard.com/@AtlasObscura ) article for if you have fond memories of the "Choose Your Own Adventure" series (The one where you were at summer camp and then suddenly, in a Robin Hood story!

Back in 2017, Sarah Laskow wrote about projects to map the forking structure of the stories, in doing so, revealing how the series evolved, its connection to modern interactive fiction, and the most complex, straightforward, and frustrating books.
