Hating Alison Ashley is an Australian children's / young adult novel written by Robin Klein, later turned into a movie starring Australian pop star Delta Goodrem and a young Saskia Burmeister.Erica "Yuk" Yurken is a precocious (and slightly snotty) lower-middle class adolescent who belongs to a family she considers to be freaks and goes to what's widely considered to be the worst school in Australia. Dreaming of future stardom and considering herself on a higher level than most of her schoolmates, her parade is quite heavily rained on when new girl Alison Ashley is put in her class. Alison, from a wealthy family, is richer, prettier and more talented and quickly gains more interest from the other students than Erica, who quickly finds herself being consumed with envy and engaged in increasingly desperate attempts to one-up Alison, not realizing that Alison's life isn't as great as Erica thinks it is.A film version was released in 2005. | |

Unreliable Narrator | |
| Hating Alison Ashley / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Unreliable Narrator: Erica, as well as misjudging Alison, tends to overestimate her own wit and popularity. | |

The Bully: Barry Hollis is both a bully and a delinquent. Funnily enough, Erica is not remotely afraid of him and has no problem telling him off. | |

Save Our Students | |
| Hating Alison Ashley / int_2565ac2 | comment |
Save Our Students: Played for laughs; Erica's teacher, a new, young, inexperienced teacher gets put in charge of Erica's class, one of the rowdiest in the school, and much to everyone's astonishment manages to turn them around. It's not because she inspires them, however; it's because her surly, sarcastic manner and refusal to take any bullshit from any of the little bastards she's put in charge of ends up with everyone terrified of her. | |

Academic Alpha Bitch | |
| Hating Alison Ashley / int_74b34280 | comment |
Academic Alpha Bitch: Erica. Probably the only smart student in her ill-famed school, she is an ambitious and extremely arrogant girl who believes herself superior to all her stupid classmates. When Alison is placed in her class, Erica starts hating and antagonizing her because she is jealous of how Alison outshines her academically (not just because she's rich) and is loved by all the teachers. | |

The Beautiful Elite: Played with; Erica thinks that Alison's one of these, but it's mostly her own jealousy blowing things out of proportion; Alison is actually genuinely nice and only wants to be Erica's friend. | |

Dysfunctional Family: What Erica believes her family is - she shares a room with a sister that thinks she's a horse, has an older goth sister and a deadbeat brother to just name a few. To Erica, they are this trope; to everyone else in the family, they are merely a Quirky Household. | |
