Oltre ai personaggi, direi che non c'è proprio nient'altro di interessante da dire. La trama l'ho trovata scialba, il racconto lento. Un libro di 468 pagine che poteva benissimo essere tagliato e compresso in metà spazio.
Niente di che, un grande Blah!!

This book left me a bit speechless. To be honest, I imagined something more. The Italian title, instead, has nothing to do with it. You can't understand who is this "bad girl" and this "right man", just because the only two right men in the book are both under the age of 10. Apart the lady of the house, more than bad she is determined, I can't see bad girls. And the main character is definitely not bad, Ali. Student of English literature, to pay her university rates she accepts a job as babysitter for family Skinner. The parents, Byrony and Nick, are something like two billionare financial and public relations genius. Jack, the oldest son, is some kind of genius too, solitary and sarcastic. Izzie, the teenage daughter, close to anorexia. Then, the twins Hector and Alfie, so united to look freak. Maybe more interesting, Byrony parents, Foy and Tita. He, a sprightly old man that loves being the centre of attention and telling stories about his past. She, a sort of Marella Agnelli, elegant and posh, but determined and with an iron will.
Beyond the characters, there isn't much more interesting to tell. The plot is dull, the story slow. A book of 468 wasted pages.
A big Blah!
