A review by dayvyjones
Codename Villanelle by Luke Jennings

3.0

After watching Killing Eve and being so devastated by its ending, I felt I just had to read the book. After reading several reviews prior, I had very little expectation. While I may never read its sequels, I don't think this book deserves ALL of the flak that it gets. I definitely give credit to anyone who dislikes the book for all of its weird sexuality--I would be willing to state that Villanelle has sex at least once every time in her point-of-view. Sometimes, it felt a bit like Luke Jennings's fantasies. Regardless, for what this book is, a mystery/crime book, it served its purpose well enough. Being a short read, it was easy to get through and fast-paced.
If you just want to read more of Villanelle and Eve's nonsense, I can recommend. Although, I'll warn that they do not properly meet each other in this installment.
