No Tomorrow | Luke Jennings

Title: No Tomorrow Author: Luke Jennings Ho...ly....crap. If you refer back to my review of the first Killing Eve book , you will know that I was not a fan. And I'll have to say that, in spite of the fact that this book was altogether much better written than the first, I still wasn't feeling it at all. But the last third of the book really hooked me. I am absolutely obsessed now. I'm still in the middle of watching Season 2 of the show. I'm interested to see if they take this turn with it. If not, I'm still in. I'm still amazed that they turned such a mediocre Book 1 and turned it into one of the best shows I've ever watched. I really enjoyed how Jennings fleshed out the characters and finally brought them together. My head is still spinning. I don't know what to say! This was going to be a three-star book for me, but, like I said, the last third of the book really reeled me in. I have to give it four out of five stars. Well done, Mr. Jen...

Codename Villanelle | Luke Jennings

Title: Codename Villanelle Author: Luke Jennings I was really excited to read this book, and I was extremely disappointed. I really enjoyed the first season of the show, but this is one of those cases where the show is better than the book. I found the sparse writing style to be ineffective and honestly boring. I felt like the story didn't go very far. It was a chore to read, and that made me sad since I was so eager to read it. I'm going to continue with Book 2 later, hoping that it gets better. But, for now, I give Book 1 two out of five stars. ----------------------- QUOTE: "Someone who could get up in the morning, make coffee, choose what to wear, and then go out and cold-bloodedly put a total stranger to death.
