Go Ask Alice by Beatrice Sparks Entry One


I don't know much going into this book.  It was recommended to me so I decided to give it a shot because it looks pretty interesting.  The author is anonymous but the main editor is Beatrice Sparks so she gets the credits.  So far, I know that the diary is from the perspective of a 1960's teenager.  The 60's were a time when in which the idea of hippies and everything they coincide with debuted.  I'm interested to see how Alice, whom I believe to be the protagonist, reacts to this pop culture.  I think she most likely will not as that will make for a good storyline for sure.  This book makes me specifically interested in the history of what was going on during the time it was written and how that affects the novel.  This looks like yet another promising book!
