Murder in Tinseltown: A Choose-Your-Own-Story Mystery by Max Nightingale

3.0

These type of books were my jam back in primary school and the premise of an adult choose your own adventure murder mystery was really intriguing.

The storyline and the characters were what I'd expect in a Hollywood set Crime-Noir.  However, something was just missing.  When you chose the path you wanted to take the chapters didn't flow well, sometimes people came back to life or evidence was rediscovered.  And sadly the main character was less than effective - it sometimes felt like it was their first day on the job!

It may have been a better experience if I hadn't read the ebook version but I really think this could a great nostalgia-soaked idea for the gen x crowd who grew up with these kind of books, it just needs finessed a bit and the MC to be given a bit of oomph!
