women written by men. the way jennings writes about villanelle’s boobs is embarrassing for him. her characterisation is also bland and cliche, too much focus on her body and clothes. likewise with eve, she’s painted as this ugly nerd, with an overwhelming amount of references to her lack of style.
other than these criminal characterisation of women the writing is bland, uninspired and trite. struggled through it. i’m shocked they even decided to turn this into a show. thank god the show is infinitely better phoebe waller bridge did god’s work.
it’s been a while since ive been this disappointed in a book
