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. Although there is still some question as to whether this diary is real or fictional, there is no question that it has made a profound impact on millions of readers during the more than 25 years it has been in print. Despite a few dated references to hippies and some expired slang, Go Ask Alice still offers a jolting chronicle of a teenager's life spinning out of control. Product Description: This groundbreaking classic is more compelling than ever for today's readers. A sensation when it was first published and a perennial bestseller ever since, this real-life diary charts an anonymous teenage girl's struggle with the seductive--and often fatal--world of drugs. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - I think she was murderedOn reading this book a few years ago, it was my -- 'hit', hunch, or opinion -- that the protagonist did not die from an accidental overdose, as the editor implied, but was murdered for having informed upon several high school students who were selling drugs to other students, likely as 'foot_soldiers' in an organized crime ring. \ Rating:  - Everyone should read this bookI am seventeen year old high school student. I have read many books and this by far is one of the best I have ever read. I finished it in two days, I only stopped to sleep and go to school, where one of my friends picked it up to look at it, and demanded I finish it as soon as possible so he could read it. This book is a must read for everyone, it will help high school students make better decisions and parents understand their children, this book has something to offer everyone. Rating:  - Not ImpressedI read this book in college for a children's lit class. I was not impressed. It is a melodramatic look at the evils of drugs. It reads like a bad after school special, created to frighten teenagers and warn them never to experiment with drugs of any kind. Also, despite the lore following this novel, it was not written by a teenager. Read the novel if must, but there are definitely better books out there about drug usage. Rating:  - Semi Compelling...This book was kind of interesting. It is NOT written by a teenager. The story is about a girls struggle with drug addiction and personal identity. The things that give away this not so anonymous book is the content. There are several "big" words that are used by te author to suggest that this isnt written by a 14 year old addict. Throughout the story, the narrator spends her time raving about the drugs she uses but spends a little amount of time talking about boys and other "normal" teenage expierecnes. ...

I recommend this book for every teenager out there.
