Below is the winning review of Catch Me if I Fall

By Barry Jonsberg, presented by Hareem Ahmad in Year 8:

An Australian novel 'Catch Me if I Fall' is similar to my experiences of growing up in Sydney with a privileged life. Aidan and Ashley are Identical twins who rely on each other very much. The love they have for each other is like the love you will have for this book after you read it. After Aiden suffers a terrible injury trying to save Ashley, the twins will find out a truth that will change their lives forever. Each page you turn takes you on an adventure with suspense that unfolds into an imaginary place. There are only three words to describe this book: dramatic, emotional, and epic.
