BSC cosmetics--Perfume? I want to say I had it. Wasn't it a rollerball type of perfume with a see through container with a pink cap?

Jean didn’t know she was hiring “just about the best baby-sitter in the whole world”
I'm in two minds about whether I want to watch Ann babysitting real kids. On the one hand, if her characters are anything to go by, it'd be hilarious. On the other hand, if her characters are anything to go by, I feel really sorry for the kids.

Karen was always a shining light in the Baby-sitters Club series.”
As in, something that gives people migraines? That's a pretty good description for Karen.

You did such an awesome job snarking this! You really called it when you described the way Ann treats people like objects...I think this has actually made the BSC books a lot darker for me.
