‘Go Ask Alice’ by anonymous author

This month I finished reading this book. It is a diary of a girl in America. It’s a true story. The story of a girl who started using drugs.

The girl was only fifteen when she started using drugs. She went at her grandparent’s house and there a girl, Jill invited her to a party. That’s when she used drugs the first time. The girl liked it and she decided that she wants to have more.

She returned back to her house. School started and she sold drugs to small children. She took more drugs.

Then she made a friend, Chris. After her parents found out that she was using drugs, the girls decided to run away from home. They went in San Francisco and stayed in a studio apartment. Of course they didn’t have much money. They worked at a store. The owner of the store, Shelia invited them to a party. The girls were drugged there.

They decided to open their own store. They found a house and opened a store. They missed their parents and decided to go home.

The girl’s parents didn’t do anything, of course.

The girl ran away from home again. The second time… wasn’t so good. She didn’t had any money. She didn’t want to use drugs again but obviously she used some. She got sick. Very sick. Then she managed to return home.

Her parents didn’t do anything.

One night she was babysitting a little child and she was drugged. She almost killed herself. She waked up in a hospital. Then some girls from her school told the police that she was selling drugs. She had lots of problems with the police. Then the authorities decided that she must go to a hospital for insane people.

After she stayed there, she could go home.

Three weeks later she died. Of drugs, of course.

My opinion: Her parents were STUPID!!!! Why didn’t they do anything?!! Are they insane or what!? The girl was using drugs for two years! She ran away from home! Twice! I mean, hello, she’s your child! Why didn’t you do something!? Why!? I mean I knew she was going to die. She was taking drugs! But still!

Anyway. I enjoyed reading this book. I like reading diaries. I can’t say if the book was written well or not because it is a diary and a diary can’t be written badly or well.
