I am participating in the blog tour of I, Spy, and Mr. Nice Spy by Jordan McCollum. I am so excited about these books. If you want a fun and sassy heroine who's juggling her spy life with real life, then this is the series for you. I love the voice of the main character Talia in I, Spy, because she feels so real and yet someone that I could be friends with. You all know how I loved the TV series, Alias, and this reminds me a bit of that. It's also set in Canada and since I'm Canadian, well, it's like two perfect worlds have collided for me.
Her partner, Elliott, is also trying to juggle real life with his spy life and I was pleasantly surprised to find out what makes him tick and how his partnership with Talia figures into his life in the prequel novella, Mr. Nice Spy. (I read the book, I Spy, first.) Ms. McCollum has created a cast of characters that are memorable and make me anxious to see the series continue just so I can find out what happens to them!
And, on the spur of the moment side, I submitted a question for a spy tip and it was, "How can a mom enjoy candy without her kids noticing and wanting her to share?" which spy novelist, Jordan McCollum answered below in the video. So fun!
Point of this story? If you're looking for the perfect summer read, then this is it. I loved these books and highly recommend them to anyone. You can read more about the blog tour and launch, get a cool spy tip for your daily life and download a free copy below! (For the launch, you can also find Mr. Nice Spy on Amazon, Kobo, and JordanMcCollum.com!)
