The book did not fail to impress me with its depth of meaning and a lesson you can learn from each chapter. That's how I look at this book, and it helped me to see beyond the obvious. Since this was my first exposure to Nick Spill, as well as my first book by the author, I can say that he left me speechless. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><i>from: Bookish Babe</i></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">I was pretty surprised by the stories within this book. This book consists of 9 love stories during the post-pandemic. Some of these stories contain some trigger warnings such as adult content, violence, and incest.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><br />I will have to say that the one story that I truly enjoyed was <i>The Sense of Blood</i>. I was shocked by the ending, but I had a feeling that there was going to be a twist. However, I did not expect the twist that I read. From the beginning of the story, I was hooked and wanted to find out if their love was just fate.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><br /><br />I still however really enjoyed the combination of each story, especially Forbidden Love. I felt like that story was something many of us could find relatable when it comes to dating. Especially in these times when many of us just don’t know how to express feelings understand how the other feels, and just are waiting for the other to finally give us the green light.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span class="apple-converted-space"><br /></span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span class="apple-converted-space"><i>from dolcelibri</i></span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><i></i></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in; text-align: start;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>Content Warning: adult situations, violence, and incest.</b><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in; text-align: start;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">This is a book that contains 9 very unique short stories about love during and post pandemic. And when I say unique I mean unique, nothing like I had read before. Out of the nine stories my most favorite was <i>The Sense of Blood Ink</i>… But oh! my did this story have a twisted ending I was not expecting! This short story was the longest one of all nine and it was worth every word I read, even though it left me with bittersweet after thoughts. I also enjoyed Forbidden Love and Amanda, Goya, St. Francis, Joni Mitchell, and Ma Bell. The whole green light theory intrigued me, and I think its a concept that totally applies to courting and dating in todays world. But I enjoyed reading romance from a different angle, it was definitely a first for me.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in; text-align: start;"><span style="background: rgb(250, 250, 250);

<b>The Jaded Spy</b> just reviewed in New Zealand's premier (and now defunct) magazine North & South. The last book review there. Hope someone buys the magazine and all the other former properties and works out how to monetize digital information. So many other entrepreneurs have worked it out (excluding most of the largest newspapers and media companies.)</div>

Been selected for the long (read very long) list of entrants to the Ngaio Marsh Award for Best Novel 2020. There is a long list of very talented writers. Somewhere in this image is my insane kiwi spy novel.<br />
<br />
Not sure how this works with the whole of NZ on lockdown, but I know kiwis read a lot and have access to the internet. So someone is reading the Jaded Spy.<br />
<br />
You can read it on <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07YYL5WVC/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_taft_p1_i2" target="_blank">Amazon or order it as a paperback </a>(print on demand - its got an ISBN # so any bookstore can order it.<br />
<br />
You can even order it from our own Miami based <a href="https://shop.booksandbooks.com/book/9780578569376" target="_blank">Books & Books through this link here.</a><br />

Today I am honoring them. My grandfather Harry Spill was in the Battle of the Somme in 1916. He is pictured on the right of his son George Henry Spill on George's wedding day Dec 26, 1938. Olive and her parents are on her left. It was a white Boxing Day.</span><br />

He would not see his family for nearly 5 years. At the age of 30 he thought he would not be called up, but he was and he managed to see his son Peter before he was shipped out East.</span><br />
