Following the wildly popular BBC America adaption of Codename Villanelle, a high-stakes, addictive new installment of Jennings's acclaimed Killing Eve series Though the cat and mouse chase between these two lethal adversaries has seemingly ended, the sophisticated, deadly thrill of Eve and Villanelle's relationship is far from over. Told in Jenning's stylish prose, Killing Eve: Endgame is another page turning chapter in the espionage exploits of Eve and Villanelle.

In the last book of this series (I just realised I don't know what the series is called. Well, now it is called the Killing Eve series because clearly the show is better and with that name it would attract readers, like it did me, but I have no clue what it was originally called) it feels like Luke Jennings has no idea what he was writing anymore. After Codename Villanelle and No Tomorrow, in Endgame (or Die For Me, can't figure out why this one has two different titles) the story telling is changed to first person. I don't think I ever came across a series that changes the writing style in the last book and I was so confused. Did Luke Jennings really forget what he was writing? Did he really think he could pull this off? Was there anything he felt he couldn't accurately write in 3rd person?
Anyway, I couldn't get past the first chapter.
gonna organise a search party for eve polastri because she was nowhere to be seen in this book
but then again I did get an entire book of canon villaneve which is more than what I can say about the show
These Killing Eve novels are super-fast reads. They're like going through candy. The author has a way of propelling the story along without any boring parts. Just zips along. And this book concludes the crazy character arcs of both Eve Polastri (the MI-6 agent) and Villanelle (the psychopath assassin). Each book moves the story along in ways you wouldn't expect. It's all kinda nuts, really. And exciting. I've only seen the first two episodes of the TV show, that's what got me into this trilogy. I've read the whole thing this year. Maybe at some point I'll finish watching the show.
