An obvious work of fiction, Jay's Journal describes the downward spiral of a teenage drug addict/Satanist who descends into madness &amp; finally kills himself.

Unlike GAA, this one has an actual kid's journal behind it--but the real one had nothing about the occult in it.

    <body><![CDATA[WOOOOOOW....... I truly love this book, It is about<br/>a boy named Jay who wants everything, He is not sure <br/>if he wants it or not but just the idea of doing something<br/>overpowers him to do things he may not be proud of. <br/>His life begins as many 14 year old boys would, Bearly<br/>kn...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72717596">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Since Sparks edited both this and <em> Go Ask Alice </em>, I expected a little more depth to this journal of a young man drawn into the realm of the occult.  While many of the recounted events do beg the question of supernatural forces at work, I felt like I was missing out on the nitty gritty of the truth b...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/79460923">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Jay's Journal was sensational and freaky.. Both times I read it..<br/>I would give it higher marks if it were actually a true story..<br/><br/>I have done some research on the book's authenticity and it seems that the auther Beatrice Sparks has had some serious serious credibility issues.

    <body><![CDATA[This book is the true narrative of an adolescent who dabbles in Satanism and gets pulled into a world he never imagined, taken from the boy's own journals.  The drugs he takes might explain the unbelievable encounters with the supernatural.  His descent is explicit and disturbing.  This narrative is...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/69597475">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I think this book has some really strong subject matter for it's intended audience.  I really recommend parents should read it before their YA reader reads it.  It has a strong message and a little &quot;worst case scenario&quot; but darkly entertaining. I read it almost 20 years ago and still remem...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/62510590">more...</a>]]></body>
