Description

Amelia and Riley are bad kids from the bad crowd at bad Brookfield High, and they've just transferred to Ashbury. Brilliant, mysterious and probably evil, they have the rich kids at Ashbury spellbound. Tantalisingly aloof, they are somehow managing to have an extraordinary impact on all the HSC Ashbury students and staff. Told through memoirs written as part of the gothic fiction elective in the HSC English exam, Falling for Amelia is a story about ghosts, secrets, madness, passion, locked doors, femme fatales - and that terrifying moment in the final year of high school when you realise that the future's come to get you.
