shhh.. dont tell.... I Am An ... ADDICTTT =X

I am an official addict. Ever since i grabbed this book i have not stopped reading.. of course until i began writing this blog. =) This book is approximately 500 pages and i cant wait to find out its ending. As i entered Barnes and Noble i was on a quest to find a book that i would fall in love with. Then we met eye to eye.. or in this case eye to cover. I had several flashbacks and remembered several times in which i had heard about how great this series by Stephanie Meyer was amazing. As i thought about whether i should buy the book or not.. my friend walked over and excitedly told me that i should definetely get the book. I have had a few days reading the book and i am already hooked. It is about a girl named Bella who has just moved in with her father. She is now in love with a beautiful young gentleman.. yet she knows that e is hiding something. Suprisingly, the teen- Edward is a bloodthirsty vampire! He keeps reminding her about how she should stay away and that he is dangerous. Still, she keeps speaking with him and is anxious to know what he is hiding. I, as well, am anxious to know about Edward and what his plans are with Bella. Will he fall in love with her or will he just hunger for her blood until he reaches his goal of murder. I guess i will have to keep reading ad find out. Cant Wait =). I would ask you guys that have previously read this fascinating book to let me in on what will happen.. but i think ill enjoy the suspense a bit longer. =D

hmmmhmm

I have continued to read the book Go Ask Alice and it continues to be just as good as the first day. At the moment, Alice is staying away from drugs and is in love with a good young gentleman named Joel, who has just started college. She has had many temptations and people that keep trying to get her to start taking drugs again. There are people that put drugs into her bag. Still, she has stayed strong and has a great support from her parents. They are the only people that support her because she has no friends and everyone is against her just because she is trying to change.

Also, many other things have happened, such as the death of her Gramps and her Gran becoming ill. Also, Alice has become very studious and is starting to think that maybe she really is in love with Joel and they can have a great future together. For the most part, she is enjoying her new life. The only thing that is bothering her are her old friends and peers that keep trying to get her to do drugs and threatning her that they will put drugs in candy and offer it to her younger sister. I find this so sad that people dont get happy for other people that are doing what is right but instead try to convince them to do wrong along with them.

I hope that Alice continues to be strong and does not fall into the temptation because if this does happen she will most likely end up overdosing. Also, she will ruin the possibility of having a relationship with Joel.

In the story of "The Rice Husband- Lena St. Clair" , Amy Tan describes the mother and daughter realtionship as a deep bond because they both have this strange ability to sense when something is wrong or know in advance before something actually happens. While reading this, i thought about how i have sometimes heard mothers say they have a sixth sense. I believe this is true and mothers know what is wrong and right for you.

Specifically, there is a part in the story in which Lena is eight years old and her mother looks at her bowl of rice and tells her that she will have marry a bad man. Although my mother has never told me something like this, we have talked about when i get older and how she expects him, or imagines him to be. I think this is how every mom is with their daughter- they have certain expectations and hopes for their child.

The book Go Ask Alice is written in a diary form. So far, this book has been rather interesting and has kept me hooked. It is said to be the real diary of a young 15 year old girl that died from drug addiction. At first, the girl is a calm, studious- yet lonely girl. She has almost no friends and feels as if no one notices her. Then, she is invited to a party and has a drug (LSD) putten into her drink. After this, she begins to try out all sorts of drugs and is hooked. She quicly becomes an addict.

Next, as a result she runs away from home twice and does everything and anything she needs to in order to get the drugs she needs. At one point she was even a pusher- which sells the drugs.

Now, she has promised herself (for the second time) that she will stay away from drugs and try to go back to her normal life. Still, i think that she will only be able to stay without drugs for a short time.. because she alwas talk about how she misses them.

This book has really left me wondering if theyre are really young teens that are addcits and go through the struggles that this girl is facing. I never thought that young people would actually go to drugs for help and not realize that what they are doing is wrong. I just hope that from this book many teens learn tat drugs can only help you escape for a short time- and can later on cause serious consequences such as pregnancy, addiction and even death.

I also think that this book touches very delicate deep points and that if you are reading this book you must be mature and understand that drugs are not what they seem.

I hope that others and I can learn something from this book and pass it on to others.
