5.0 out of 5 stars It is the kind of book that you don't want to put down., January 9, 1998

This review is from: Babysitter's Nightmare (Paperback)

I believe that this book was very intreaging. I liked how the author kept you in suspense. It was like a Sunday night movie, Kate Daniel's made you feel like you were there in the same room. As I was reading it I could relate to each character as if I was going through it at the same time. To tell you the truth, I really hated reading until I read Babysitter's Nightmare. Thankfully it is also very easy to read. It is a very good book for teenagers like me.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Someone is setting her up...", June 29, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Babysitter's Nightmare (Paperback)

Recently, 17-year-old Alice Fleming's hometown (Anslow, Colorado) has been the target of numerous, random burglaries--and soon Alice becomes the leading suspect when the victims are identified as baby-sitting clients of hers. Things become even worse for her, though, when Alice's baby-sitting replacement (Nancy Ettinger) is murdered during a break-in. Now, not only is Alice thought to be a thief and liar, but also a killer. Alice knows she's innocent, but what can she do to convince everyone else otherwise? And can she do it before the burglar decides to visit her next?

"Baby-sitter's Nightmare" was a pretty good young adult thriller, even though I thought some of the suspicion went a bit overboard. I mean, I can see how maybe her friends or the detective would doubt Alice, but her parents--that was slightly unbelievable. Most parents will defend their children, guilty of a crime or not. Anyway, if you liked this book, then don't miss the sequel: "Baby-sitter's Nightmare II", which follows another teen's baby-sitting terror. Recommended for girls age 12 and up.
