A review by millen13
Babysitter by Joyce Carol Oates

4.0

The backdrop maybe Babysitter, a real serial killer who has never been caught, however, the protagonist is almost as hair-raising. A white, entitled, rich woman who enters into an affair. This book comes with so many trigger-warnings. To mention them would give away too many spoilers, but think rape and racism.

Oates' writing is brilliant. I love her ways of storytelling. I didn't really like the ending, but thinking about it, it is so typical for entitled white people.
