After an introduction, the reader is asked to determine the protagonist's next action. From that choice, the plot branches out, leading to more decisions and eventually multiple possible endings. Endings include the death of the protagonist and/or their companions.{{Cite web|url=https://www.abebooks.com/9780061133220/Pretty-Little-Mistakes-Do-Over-Novel-0061133221/plp|title=9780061133220: Pretty Little Mistakes: A Do-Over Novel - AbeBooks - Mcelhatton, Heather: 0061133221|website=www.abebooks.com|language=en|access-date=2020-01-20}}
