The Perfect Nanny by Leïla Slimani



When Myriam, a French-Moroccan lawyer, decides to return to work after having children, she and her husband look for the perfect nanny for their two young children. They never dreamed they would find Louise: a quiet, polite, devoted woman who sings to the children, cleans the family's chic apartment in Paris's upscale tenth arrondissement, stays late without complaint, and hosts enviable kiddie parties. But as the couple and the nanny become more dependent on one another, jealousy, resentment, and suspicions mount, shattering the idyllic tableau 

MY REVIEW: 3 Stars ⭐️ 

What the literal hell!! I had to read a nanny book for a challenge and thought, "Oh the library has this book! This sounds good!" I’m binge reading it because it reeled me in, I’m all like, HOLY EVIL GINGERBREAD MEN, THIS IS GOOD! 



Then I come to the end!! I turn the page and there were the acknowledgements! I’m like what the hell! I sat here all excited and you gonna end like that! I’m stumped! 



I was about to toss my tablet, but no, not the tablet. Then I thought, 1 ass Star I’m giving you!!! Then, fine, 3 stars because you had me going the whole way through the book! You rat bastard!! 

Happy Reading!
