A review by jordanelliotbeaven
The Babysitter by Sheryl Browne

3.0

As someone who likes remarkably fast paced, heart racing and breathtaking psychological thrillers this book was too slow for me. However, the story line and character’s perspective varying from chapter to chapter was great!

Overall the whole storyline is good, the plot, and the twists held my curiosity and wanted me to fray on to reach the end in order to find out what happened and how ‘the babysitter’ worked her ways.

I loved that each chapter was from the perspective of one of the three characters (Mel, Mark & Jade). It was very obvious from the start that Jade (the babysitter) wasn’t going to be nice, however I couldn’t take any liking to her which normally I do end up becoming quiet attached to the ‘baddie’ this time I couldn’t stand the character,and wanted everything coming her way to happen!

The author managed to keep grip of my interest although I did find the book becoming slow in parts and it took until a long way in for the pace to pick up however this book has been well written.

I’m a bit confused as to the last ‘chapter’ and if that means there is another book to come out as a follow.

I wouldn’t take just my views on this book written by Sheryl Browne in a way that should stop you from reading as you may read this book and think it held you at the edge of the seat. For me it didn’t but I would love to hear your views on ‘The Babysitter’
