guyc 's review for:
Codename Villanelle
by Luke Jennings
I'd seen the TV series and thought, particularly after series 1, I had to read this book.
I'm afraid the TV version is better. Without spoilering anything, by the end of the second chapter of the book you know Villanelle's background (it takes until the end of the first series on TV before you have any idea) and the humour - where's the dark humour of the TV version?
Bit of a comedown I'm afraid - it just reinforced my belief that Phoebe Waller-Bridge is some sort of genius.
