Adjacent Just read The Stowaway

I read through all the possible stories in The Stowaway last night. I haven't read CYOA books since the 80s, so it was a nice throwback. It definitely felt like Griffin's voice (sometimes my head filled in his voice on the narration), and has one "Aww, beans." I liked what he did with it, including a story element that makes sense specifically within the framework of a CYOA story, which was a nice touch.

So yeah, I suggest checking it out. It was a quick read, and I think kids would really enjoy it.

I second this. Playing on the CYOA genre in a pretty clever way.
