Go Ask Alice Blog 3

The narrator's personality is changing with every diary entry that she writes. She thinks things are wrong that she does like, drugs , sex, and running away, and then she thinks that those things are bad. She is having weird encounters with things. For example, when she was doing her homework and then all of a sudden she had this flashback of when she was doing drugs and then the next thing you know, she is on the floor of her bedroom naked. It was a little bit sketchy to me. I also kind of think that she is improving though. When she is at home with her family, she seems to do better. Then again, I also think that maybe the school environment is going to drive her to do drugs again. It will be sad if that happens, because it seems as if she is getting her life back on track again. I didn't mention this in my last blog, but I thought that the last entry of her first diary was weird. She was saying how she would either commit suicide or become a social worker. They are not even similar to each other in any way. It seemed kind of crazy to me. Anyways, I think that the book is good and I can't wait to finish it.

Good job! I also agree that the school environment is going to pressure the narrator a lot into going back on the drug track again. And the scene in her bed room was very, very sketchy, no doubt about that! I think the book is finally showing the bad side of using drugs, compared to just saying all of the good... Good job, again! Keep up the good work Maddy! :)
