From the publisher

“January 24thAfter 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.
