So as you know, I’ve started reading Spare and I’m taking my time on it as to protect my mental health.
In an update, I’ve read another fifty pages of it today and I’m still enjoying it, though I can’t shake the feelings of heartbreak and sorry I have towards Prince Harry- as I said yesterday he’s a a very traumatised individual .
I was reading it today and I was also pondering on it- which is good. I am sure we’re all aware of the fact the the media are sensationalising the book by taking quotes out of context and use for the “shock” factor- I mean look at how they mentioned his loss of virginity etc.
But what they don’t say or provide is the context of the quotes taken- reading the large part of where the quotes are it makes me realise that there’s nothing all that salacious really- I mean yes him mentioning his loss of virginity could be considered vulgar, but in the context of the paragraph and his narrative people aren’t looking at the bigger picture.
Which is you may ask?
In my view, Harry is dealing with serious life long trauma and he’s trying his best to cope with it. So far his story is telling me he’s had to put up wit ha way of life that is more about “The Fir,” then the fact that Harry et al are people and humans; instead The Firm insist that their way of life is better then any one individual and that’s how it was and how it should be, people and their nasty emotions should just go away.
Anyway, it’s still a good read.
