Go Ask Alice (Anonymous Diaries)

A teen plunges into a downward spiral of addiction in this classic cautionary tale.

January 24th
After you've had it, there isn't even life without drugs...

It started when she was served a soft drink laced with LSD in a dangerous party game. Within months, she was hooked, trapped in a downward spiral that took her from her comfortable home and loving family to the mean streets of an unforgiving city. It was a journey that would rob her of her innocence, her youth--and ultimately her life.

Read her diary.
Enter her world.
You will never forget her.

For thirty-five years, the acclaimed, bestselling first-person account of a teenage girl's harrowing decent into the nightmarish world of drugs has left an indelible mark on generations of teen readers. As powerful--and as timely--today as ever, Go Ask Alice remains the definitive book on the horrors of addiction.

I love diaries. I couldn't put it down. So much was going on.
I feel bad for her. If she was actually a real person. I would hug her if I could.

Had to re-read this before reading Unmask Alice. If you didn't know, you wouldn't know...

Apparently, this is fake just-say-no propaganda, written by a “therapist” to deter teens from drugs. It does read as such. Disappointing and unsatisfying.

Woww... this book was one of the most depressing books i've ever read :\ but it was still pretty good.

I kind of liked this book, but a lot of it seemed a bit outdated. also, i hatee hatee ahtee how it ended!!!!!

from the other comments, i made the conclusion that if you read this as a teenager, you'll like it more than when your an adut, so i would recomend it for the teenagers.

Def had triggering warnings from the very beginning Was a very short read and told a story through realistic scenarios. Worth the read.
