Go Ask Alice

By: uncredited

Narrated by: Christina Moore

Celebrate the anniversary of the acclaimed, bestselling first-person account of a teen girl’s harrowing descent into drug addiction—as heart-wrenching, shocking, and timely as ever.

January 24th

After you’ve had it, there isn’t even life without drugs …

It started when she was served a 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 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.

Critic reviews

"An extraordinary work....a document of horrifying reality." (The New York Times Book Review)

A tragic and enlightening ride

My son borrowed this book from school and so I got the audio book to follow along. It tugged on so many different heartstrings as an educator, parent, and sibling. I kept hoping all the way to the end.

Flash Back

Reminded me of my flower child/hippy days.
I could relate to almost everything she wrote in her diary.

Left wanting more....great read

For a journal turned into a novel , this book was edited quite well. I was able to place myself into the characters struggles and turmoil. The details of specific places were added in a way where it seemed like a natural description of the scenery from the journal author not an editor adding them later to help draw in the reader. I would recommend to most. However, I think it may have a trigger effect on certain people. I suggest caution when ther reader is struggling with early sobriety and being treated for mental illness diagnoses or disorders. I think a quick consult with your doctor or health specialist may be helpful before you begin ther book.

Just ok

the writer seems to have done a fairly good job of capture early teenage drug use but the overall tone of the book came off as a warning story for middle class youth

amazing

I think every teen should read this it shows just how easy it is to fall and the emotional roller-coaster of being a teen and over thinking things a teen shouldn't have to do alone I give it a 5 through and through ill never forget Alice
