She starts to find this all out when she goes to a club one night and sees some people that no one else can see. Soon her mom is kidnapped and it is up to her to learn everything she has to about this new world and of her mother's past. In this book you watch as a seemingly normal girl gets her world flipped upside down. It's a fast read, lots of action and drama. It is very interesting and has a lot of twists. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to get out and see different types of worlds.

Go Ask Alice

Go Ask Alice is an actual diary from a girl in her teens. This book takes you into this young girl's life for a couple years as her diary and best friend. It shows you the life of drugs and what it's like to take them. As well as what can happen when you take them. Many bad things have happened to this girl because of her taking drugs. Some of the time she was even tricked into taking them. It is horrible to read how people can destroy someone while they are high. But it's because it's a horrifyingly true story that makes it appeal to people to read. I enjoyed this book because of how real it is, it isn't just some fanatsy story it is real life which helps you relate more to the book while reading it. It is sad to read how badly drugs affect her. But i would deffiantly recomend this book to anyone.
