    [​IMG] I think the book "Go Ask Alice" is really fun, because it's a book reading by a girl.
    This girl dead at the age of 17, this book was here own diary!

    You do realize that "Go Ask Alice" is a work of FICTION, don't you? And "fun" is the last adjective I'd ever use for a novel about someone's slow descent into insanity through neglect.

    From the words of my English teacher:

    "I cried at the end, because it was finally over. I have yet to clean the remains from my yard."

    I know, in the end she is going better.
    But in the very end she dies, a bit to much drugs.
    And I typed fun but I didn't really mean it.

    Boo the Great,

    Don't take this the wrong way, but ...

    Saying things you don't mean is often a sure way to cost you the respect of some of your peers here at SP. There's been plenty who've come and have then been permanently banished (e.g. Shakrazj), so that many of us SPers can't really tell when this kind of remark is a joke or a serious effort to offend.

    From what I gather from Rallymama's post, the book in question deals with a serious and tragic subject matter, so the use of the word "fun" was bound to to garner a response in kind.

    [​IMG] Sorry, I didn't really meant it that way, so I'm going to look more on the words that I use.
    By the way:Did you read the book?
    Yes, what did you thought of the book?

    Ok, but I think I'm going to read more books.
    I hear a lot of funny things about some books, so I think I'm going to read them.
