Amy's Secret — Royce Ellie

You can write anything in a letterbook. there's just one rule: you can't tell anyone else what's in it. Dear Ames, I was wondering if you wanna start a letterbook with me? While I was on hols in tassie, my cousin Hannah showed me this book. It was just a school exercise book, okay, but it was all decorated and glittered up. Inside, she and her friend Olivia had taken turns writing letters to each other, but not just letters - there were photos, stuff cut out from magazines, tickets from movies they saw together, even choccie wrappers! Jess and Amy haven't always been close. But when they start a letterbook, dark secrets are revealed and a deep friendship is forged. 'I really loved the book. I especially liked that it was written in letters, which made it really different. It was also believable ... you could imagine the story happening. When is the next one coming out?' - tegan, age 14 'I loved it. It's a little bit like the Cath Cassidy books, which I like to read. So if you like Cath Cassidy you'll really like the Letterbook as well. I learnt quite a bit from the book too - I wouldn't let a friend be alone like Amy - I'd tell mum.' - Jordan, age 13.
