Go Ask Alice
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.

Go Ask Alice
I loved this book. The emotion that the protagonist conveys throughout the book is clearly relatable from generation to generation. I recommend this book for every teenager out there.

we get it already...
There seem to be a lot of reviews written for this book bashing it. We get it...you're angry that this is a work of fiction and isn't, in all actuality, a true, bona fide account. Unfortunately for you, you will find that most books contain...

Thumbs up.
Definitely a book that evokes emotions and can be related to in some at least distant way, shape or form by most individuals. It's a quick and easy read, so even if one doesn't like it, he/she can't really regret reading it.

Who cares if it's a hoax!?!
What does it matter if this is book is a work of fiction (a "hoax" as some reviewers have called it)?! When I read it as a 13 y/o (back in the early 80's) it scared the crap out of me. It did its job of helping to keep me off drugs. What's...

Still a Classic and Unforgettable Tale!
Go Ask Alice was one of those novels that I grew up with remembering quite clearly. As a child who loved to read, Go Ask Alice was one of the best pre-teen novels of my generation. Of course, it's been 20 years since I last picked up the book but...

A comically, corny hoax and terrible read
I was killing time in a small bookstore when I came across this and remember vaguely hearing about it years before. As I paid for it, the clerk raved about what a great book it was. I couldn't disagree more and wonder if he actually read it...

stupid
This book is nothing but stupid anti-drug fiction. If you want to see that the biggest problem with drugs is the people against them, or if you are an idiot buy this book.
