shweissman 's review for:

Codename Villanelle by Luke Jennings
3.0

This lacks the sheer excellence of the KILLING EVE television series (sorely missed if you saw the show first are Carolyn Martens and Bill Pargrave), but it's still a fun, zippy, addictive read. A palate cleanser, in a way.

I don't know if I'd think this if I hadn't heard it, but you can sort of tell it's written by a man. I also agree with what someone posted under CODENAME VILLANELLE: SHANGHAI that there's a disappointing bout of transphobia (that starts out promisingly).
