Gotta get through this one so I can prep for book club next week. It's okay, but not amazing, and I really would rather be reading my other book, which IS amazing. So I'm rewarding myself with chocolate for doing the reading i should be doing instead of the reading i want to be doing. Toblerone season is here!
so-soAs amazing as the show (Killing Eve) based on this book is, the book is quite dull in comparison. It's really great to see how the makers of the show turned a not-so-great book into a totally binge-worthy show.
I am definitely gonna continue watching the show, but not the books.
Show - 5/5🌟
Book - 3/5🌟
so-soLoosely based on the real-life experiences of the comic artist David Mack, this tale of undercover espionage in the art world is very intriguing. It doesn‘t get a high endorsement from me mostly because the art (though gorgeous) doesn‘t quite match the story. Others may be able to overlook this and enjoy the book, however it was too distracting for me.
pickI enjoyed this one a lot! The first half started a little slow for me, but once I got to the second half, I finished it in a day! It‘s about four retired women who had a long career as assassins — and now someone is trying to assassinate them. Very entertaining!
I got on 'Nessa's choice' on my #BookishMonopoly and what did she choose? Yes, you guessed right 😄

Ugh. I read 200 pages of this even though the main character made me uncomfortable in how he treated women. After he broke a woman through horrible interrogation then took her to bed that was more than I could stand.

I‘m only reading this book. Simon & Schuster sent me a physical ARC of this book when I was in their influencer program but I never read it. I‘m listening to it on audio right now. I‘m not enjoying this book. I don‘t think it‘s for me but I‘ll keep reading it. If I can‘t get into it then I‘ll DNF it.

I've been on a roll with spy stories so thought I'd get to this one that has been in my tbr for some time. Fun story about a 14 year old recruited by MI6. Lots of action, and a character you can like.
