Dystopia
I was very late to the party in reading this book and trilogy and all I can ask is why did I not read it before? This was outstanding, and I adored the characters, it does make you really try to choose who Katniss should be with in the love triangle and I could not recommend it more.
This book is a collection of silly questions that present two options and ask you to choose one. It is structured into ten chapters, and the author provides some questions that are easier to answer.
Children will enjoy this book as they can ask others their responses. The author also includes some ridiculous questions you may or may not want to choose between.
I enjoyed this book and believe it's not just for kids. While some silly questions provoke thought and can lead to exciting discussions with your children. There's also plenty of laughter to be had with this book.
Some questions made me think, and I explained the reasoning behind my choices. Other times, I would explain why I wouldn't choose either option. While there were some questions I liked, there were also some that I wouldn't say I liked either answer for.
This book is perfect for fun holidays and other occasions. If you're having a dull day, you can pick up this book and ask someone around you what they would choose.

May 24, 2022
Choose or Die has a decent premise, and some good ideas, but it suffers from a sloppy execution that results in a forgettable horror that fails to excite. After an intriguing opening scene and a first act that sets up proceedings well enough, the narrative falls off the rails a bit. It kind of explains why all this bad shit is happening but simultaneously peaces out with a conclusion that doesn't make sense or even matters to be honest. It's like the movie gets bored of itself around the halfway point. The only real saving grace is the disorientating as fuck soundtrack from Liam Howlett (The Prodigy), but otherwise, Choose or Die kind of gives it a go, but is ultimately a flaccid disappointment.

This book starts about a month
after the second book ends. It really plays up the love triangle thing but still has the adventure parts too. Unfortunatly, Kelsey is distracted by who to choose and why that she gets distracted easily. Kudos to her though because she doesn't "check out" when Ren doesn't remember her and her heart is broken (unlike the girl who has to choose between the sparkly vampire and the not werewolf because- he is Native American and the European rules of werewolf don't apply and he really could have shapechanged into a bear or cougar....)
I think the dragon's are fun characters and the gold dragon reminds me of Frank Burns but that might be because I was watching a MASH marathon while reading this.
I also enjoy the diving instructor. I know people whose accent will disappear or get thicker to tease, confuse, or disarm someone.
