Book Report on Spare
By Nancy Lake
Spare was very interesting. I listened to the whole book on Audible. There were hills and valleys of interest in
the telling of Harrys life. I especially
liked the whole “tell all” Gossipy type sections. It reminded me of Bonfire of
the Vanities. That is a current day
drama. There is such history and
tradition in Harry’s life but after his mother dies, he was alone and insecure.
He refused to belief his mother was dead, she was just hiding. Harry felt her presence and experienced
animals that seemed to act as an avatar for Diana. I agree with Harry. There is no such thing as death. We drop our body and continue in an energy
form.
The relationship with his dad was not
as soul felt. There was lots of rivalry between him and his brother. It was such a lovely portrayal of the Queen “Granny”.
There was a deep and loving relationship between the Queen and Harry. He might
have been her favorite and as such got away with certain requests. Harry
was honest and had a no filter approach with his Granny. She liked that.
Harry gained such benefit from his mentors in
the military. He was liking military
life but when the Taliban learned of his presence in Afghanistan, he became
their target. He was constantly being
moved for his sake and everyone elses.
He is thorough with his horror stories of the Paparazzi. They are allowed to be very aggressive in the
UK. They look for spicy stories and if
there are none, they will invent them. It seems that Meghan ruffles feathers
but not by her design. She was trying to
fit in. It seems that Kate was not as adventurous or fun loving in comparison. Those
two royals are so different in personalities. One gets the sense that Meghan was an expert at
reading Harry. He was open with her and adored
her. Those two are not ever going to
part. “The Rockies may crumble, Gibraltar will tumble, they’re only made of
clay but, Harry and Meghan’s love is here to stay.” Amen.
Good read (or listen).
