Why Do All the Nice Girls End Up Getting Kidnapped and Held
for Ransom? In this book, YOU, the reader, are a thirtysomething part-
time actor/full-time waiter suddenly caught up in a
kidnapping. Julia, the girl you went out with last night,
has been TAKEN HOSTAGE. What will you do? Will you go to
the police and ask for help? Will you burst into the
hideout, killing everyone in sight, then tell Julia that
she shouldn’t misinterpret this as some sort of big
commitment? Or will you unplug your phone and just get
really, really drunk? The choice is yours! You awake to the sound of the phone ringing. “Hello?” You hear a man’s voice. It is muffled. “We’ve got Julia.” “Wait, what do you mean?” “We have kidnapped your girlfriend. If you ever want to see
her again---” “Whoa, she’s not my girlfriend,” you say. “I just met her.
I mean, I had a good time with her and all, but I wanna
take it slow with this one, I think.” “We understand,” the voice says. “But she’s new to the
city, and presently, you’re all she has. Give us fifty
thousand dollars by tomorrow or we’ll blow her head off.” If you want to go and ask your parents if you can borrow
fifty thousand dollars, go to page 173. If you want to have sex with your ex-girlfriend, consider
getting back together with her, then think better of it, go
to page 183. BE VERY CAREFUL! You’re directing the story and the CHOICES
you make can result in MURDER, GRADUATE SCHOOL ENROLLMENT,
TORTURE, MARRIAGE, POST-APOCALYPTIC SLAVERY, UNWANTED
PREGNANCY, even TEMPING! It’s YOUR STORY and YOUR LIFE. All
you’ve got to do is decide which page you want to turn to.
