Good but not memorable
I really struggle with books like this. It's well written with a fairly engaging plot, but is just ultimately unforgettable. It probably doesn't help that it's a book about spies which has been done better by someone like John Le Carre. Don't get me wrong this isn't a bad spy novel, it just doesn't build any real intrigue or tension. Juliet is a likeable main character if not as fully developed as she should be, and overall I did enjoy reading this book. But for me it's a sign of how unremarkable it is that I wouldn't ever go out of my way to recommend it to someone, and will likely have forgotten all about it by next week.

Rowan Atkinson (0 more)
Not the best action packed movie, but if you're here because of Rowan Atkinson, you will definitely not be dissapointed.

Imagine James Bond. Now imagine a guy that thinks he is James Bond, but actually, he is a below-average anything, let alone a spy. And when all the other spies somehow end up not available (perhaps due to his inability to do his job properly), now he's the only spy they have left. Good luck to us all with such a guy protecting us.

This is like watching an average person be a spy, with the humour that follows Mr. Bean. Definitely a movie that will have you in stitches (from laughing) and will leave a positive mood after it's finished.
