The Babysitter: My Summers with a Serial Killer by Jennifer Jordan, Liza Rodman
4.0
challenging dark tense medium-paced

Thank you to NetGalley for this copy. 

I gotta start by saying I'm a huge true crime fan. If you don't like true crime you likely won't like this book. 

I'd never heard of Tony Costa but man was he fascinating. I also just find it SO UNREAL how easy it was for someone to murder a person back in the day. He got questioned and would just be like "nah, they just left town" and the cops would be like "oh aight cool!" 😐

His cockiness about not getting caught drove me insane, especially with how gruesome these murders were. The fact that he really was just driving around in the dead girls car .... like what?!? 

It also blows my mind that Liza was just chillin' with a serial killer at 9 years old and had no idea. Sheesh 

Giving it four stars just because there are SO MANY people to keep track of I truly couldn't tell you who some of them are 😂
