Summer after their 6th repeat
Plot
Dawn and Jeff head to Stoneybrook to spend the summer. Right away the BSC learns about a trip to Hawaii, sponsored by the school, that will allow SMS students to go to $500. Non-SMS students can sign up on a waiting list.
They all decide they want to go, and they convince their parents to let them. Even Dawn’s mom, who just paid to fly her daughter home for the summer. The catch is they have to pay for half the trip themselves. They start babysitting like crazy and selling all their shit. Finally, a 4th of July carnival puts them over the top. They all get a spot, even Dawn.
The ten year old triplets and Jeff decide that they want to be Baby-Sitters and ask the girls if they can go in jobs and train. The BSC agrees, but it’s a disaster. The boys act like fucking immature morons and make the jobs harder for the girls. Finally the club decides to fire them, but the boys quit first.
Takeaways
When I saw this was a Dawn book I was so annoyed. Thank God she was in Stoneybrook almost the whole time.
Stacey says “what am I, chopped liver?” And Dawn explains that Stacey picked up that expression in New York...nope.
I can’t believe how immature the boys act on the sitting jobs and I don’t understand why this stupid arrangement didn’t get cancelled right away.
Also, Dawn continues to be the most selfish person alive. As soon as she gets to her moms she is begging to leave again.
On a side note, $500 for a trip to Hawaii, and that includes airfare and hotel? Nope.
Best Character
Kristy and Mallory, because even though they can’t go on the trip, they still help the girls raise money.
Worst Character
The boys for thinking they could be Baby-Sitters when they are still little jerky ten year old boys.
