A: I honestly didn't think that this book would be so "emotionally challenging" as everybody said it would be, but it really is. I just think it is so terrible that just one time with LSD can hook you like that. It's insane. Although I think it's so bad that she is on drugs, I have to gives her props on her writing. The description of her trips on all of the various drugs are amazing. It's a shame she dies in the end because she really could have been an incredible writer.
I also think it is so sad that when she does want to give up the drugs and does for the time she does, people give her a hard time. Once you start, you cannot get away from it. Therefore, the only way she sees out of it is just starting back up with the drugs. It's basically a never ending cycle.
All in all, drugs mess up people's lives for the worse. There is absolutely no point to them. Yeah, the time you do them is great as you see from the book, but after the fact she feels terribly. It's a shame that this downward spiral of drugs caused an amazing girl to lose her life.
