Have you ever tried using Doran's Rings on Ahri? Just because they don't build into anything doesn't mean that buying them would delay your final item build. In fact, they could speed it up.
With an Amplifying Tome as start item, you might be able to build an early Hextech Revolver but chances aren't likely for you to get kills with just the Amplifying Tome. Plus, you're either going to run out of HP or mana, forcing you to recall or making you utterly defenseless in lane. This results in an early recall which you could have avoided with a Doran's Ring or Boots and Health Potions.
Starting items are a tough topic and many people underestimate their importance. I would never start with an Amplifying Tome. You can still win a lane with it in lower level matches but you'll never know when you will meet an opponent who will crush you because of the lack of sustain with the Amplifying Tome.
Counting on Spell Vamp for lane sustain isn't a good idea, in my opinion. It forces you to use spells on minions which pushes your lane and makes you easily gankable. (Plus, you won't receive any help from your own jugler like this.)
By the way, you lack a sixth item. If you want a second Spell Vamp item so bad, at least upgrade it into gunblade revolver. Or pick another damage item (which I think is the better choice for more damage output.)
