Baby-sitters' Christmas Chiller by Nola Thacker, Ann M. Martin
3.0
Pretty far-fetched and not terribly Christmassy.
— Stacey’s mystery was very anticlimactic in its resolution, especially given how serious the situation was.
— the break-ins in Kristy’s neighborhood plotline was interesting and I liked the neighborhood watch idea. I also liked the inclusion of the Hanukkah party at Abby’s house. The motivation for the crime was a bit odd though. As was the “naughty” and “nice” signs left behind. I guess it was thrown in to make it seem Christmassy?
— Mal, Jessi, and Mary-Anne’s amnesiac woman story was okay, but I don’t think jewelers and shopkeepers would give out information about a customer over the phone like that. I really liked how the Pike family welcomed the woman into their home though. On a side note, calling her “Mary” and then having Mary-Anne be one of the characters involved in this storyline made it confusing, and several times I thought everyone had started calling Mary-Anne by the shortened version of her name.
