Go Ask Alice

I decided that I would quit Go Ask Alice, it was not written in my general style and I didn't really read it with pleasure. It was a good book, and lots of people recommend it, but Alice's extremely realistic teenage wonderland is something that not many of us want to relate to, but somehow understand.

Alice had this impressive way of connecting with the reader at the beginning so it was easy to get immersed in it, I had doubts about the book in the beginning, and it seems they were right, it's written in the blandness that usually only present day books are written, of course, not all books are masterpieces like Nineteen Eighty-Four, however, I expected a little more... detail? Depth? Or understanding from the writer in what Alice was really going through. The story is well planned out and structured, what happens to her is awful, but it just doesn't catch my attention with any inferred details, stressing moments, the sort of cliff hangers at the end of the chapter that make you catch your breath and what to immediately read more and find out more.

An example of a book that caught my attention in a really special way, and was written in the recent years is The Perks of being a Wallflower where it is written in diary form, and still conveys a deep message. (I am not saying that it was written in the perfection books in the olden days seem to have where they became masterpieces that students are taught in English class).

For short, I stopped reading Alice, and I'm in search for a book to my liking.
