In one CYOA, in which you were abducted by aliens, you kept hearing that the aliens were actually searching for some sort of paradise, but you could never find it “by making a decision or by following directions”. Instead, there were a couple of pages describing arriving at this paradise, in the middle of the book, disconnected from the linked pages.
Oh my god, I was going to mention that very book. I went through the entire thing page-by-page and there was indeed, no choice that would lead you to the pages about Paradise.
It made me mad, because one, the book broke the rules; and two, because deciding to break the rules yourself to get there was making a decision.
