(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 7/11/2018 12:14 AM EDT Remember those books where the ending you got depended on which plot you chose? Imagine being able to do the same thing with a television show. HBO took that concept and while they didn't completely transfer it, they certainly updated it to incorporate today's technology. Imagine an app for your phone that allows you to choose dif...
