she also coached a softball team and occasionally solved mysteries, all before taking the SATs

Ann M. Martin’s pen was on fire. The Babysitter’s Club had over 200 books in the series and that’s just the regular line. We’re not even talking specials, mysteries, or spin-offs ☝🏾

@future_liz SHE WAS NOT PLAYING!!!!!!!

@wyntermitchell not at all!

@future_liz Yup….and I’m upset they canceled that series

@Leti9901 it’s so weird that both the 90’s show and the more recent Netflix version only lasted 1 season each considering how popular the books are

@future_liz SAY HELLO TO YOUR FRIENDS

@SoGoodWeNamedlt 🫡

@future_liz Kristy said you will not catch me or these other 12 year olds lacking! Better benefits than a daycare

@Akitron the collective power of the worker was alive and well in Stoneybrook Connecticut ☝🏾

@future_liz @isimpanimeguys And if you met her and you weren't a part of that babysitter's Club😒

@sweetjoy26_ @isimpanimeguys she would sign up your boyfriend, your middle school opp, your cousin visiting from another city, anybody 😭

@future_liz And they used to always stick poor Mary Ann with the bad ass kids. Also … I have seriously found my tribe in this thread. Cause my 46 year old ass was definitely at Barnes and Noble the DAY they released this.

@Imbeinserious I’ve had this sitting in my wishlist for a minute! I gladly donated and passed on my og copies but I think I might finally cop

@future_liz I bought my daughter all the books hoping she would be motivated by Kristy or Jessi...or even Maryanne or Mallory. It's not worked so far. Maybe I just need to buy her more books.

@TeeMBrown Maybe she’d like the new graphic novel editions? What other kind of books does she like?

@future_liz BSC girly for life. Dawn is by and far the basis for my obsession with all this CA/LA. I even managed to snag one of the original oil paintings that Hodges was selling of Dawn and Claudia.

@ohnah_ Which one if you don’t mind sharing?!

@future_liz My husband worked on the show both seasons. I will be charishing this forever! It was so sad when they decided to not shoot season 3-5 last min.

@aleahmeehan Ahh, that’s so cool. It’s Netflix’s loss really, it was a great revamp
