Go Ask Alice by Anonymous

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."... Review -- "The torture and hell of adolescence has rarely been captured as clearly as it is in this classic diary by an anonymous, addicted teen. Lonely, awkward, and under extreme pressure from her "perfect" parents, "Anonymous" swings madly between optimism and despair. When one of her new friends spikes her drink with LSD, this diarist begins a frightening journey into darkness. The drugs take the edge off her loneliness and self-hate, but they also turn her life into a nightmare of exalting highs and excruciating lows. Go Ask Alice still offers a jolting chronicle of a teenager's life spinning out of control"... Review
-- The Boston Globe "...a book that all teenagers and parents of teenagers should really read."
--The New York Times "extraordinary work for teenagers is a document of horrifying reality and literary quality."
