this book thinks its killing eve... but the only thing it has in common with that sexy show is how it ruined the whole story with a last gasp plot twist in an attempt to shock its audience. (rip villanelle you will always be famous to me)
such a mixed bag of a book? some of its really good like i did enjoy the tense parts of her killing each person, however some of it is also so boring she goes off on tangents for pages and pages, i especially didnt like the "hot takes" with the social commentary.. grace if youre that woke you probs wouldnt be a serial killer
ultimately the ending has ruined the whole story imo and its such a waste
