Funniest book, easy read

Great for the single party gal who needs a light, short read. And you can read it over and over for a different laugh every time.

wildly entertaining

A fan of Choose Your Own Adventure books as a girl, I had high hopes for Big Night Out, which fulfilled and exceeded all of my expectations.The set-up of the story allows you to navigate through either a male or female perspective, totaling 241 different possibilities. While structurally the concept is the same as the Choose Your Own Adventure books, the plot is much different: it takes the child-like sense of adventure with a grown-up context. Instead of searching haunted houses and the such, the narrator must negotiate bars, clubs, parties, and city streets in an attempt to find their desired guy/girl and get laid. Many different complications can arise, including paying attention to your alcohol intake to avoid getting sick or into trouble.Hysterical twists and turns, as well as a large variety of supporting characters, makes Big Night Out a laugh-out-loud funny book. It will keep you entertained for hours.

Fun Read, Great Entertainment!

The concept of this book is a winner--and the 241 possible storylines--make it a hit! Reminiscent of those "choose your own adventure" books of long ago, it is just pure entertainment.A great feature of this book is that you start with a male and female that room together. Depending on your mood, you can choose to "be" either gender, and have a great time navagating throughout the evening.It is a great book to take on subways or any other type of commute--giving you a relatively quick fix of entertainment on the road!

LOTS of FUN!

When I first heard of this book, I knew I had to have it. The choose your own adventure books were some of my childhood favorites! And, to have one for adults! You can play it safe, or lose yourself in a world you only have the nerve to live in fantasy. And, it's never the same story twice!

Reading has never been this much fun!

What a blast! Just like the Choose Your Own Adventure books I read when I was a kid, this book zips along through the streets of NY like a bat out of hell. The object is to find your love interest and get laid and after several readings, I still haven't achieved my objective. But that is what makes this book so much fun. You can read it and read it and it never gets old. Highly recommended!
