Feeding the Squirrels

Rating: 3 Cups
Michael is a writer and wishes to write the great American
Novel. For now his conquest is finding the right woman to
fit in and out of his life.
Dawn met Michael while out walking her Cocker Spaniel. Just
like him, she inherited early in life, helping with her finances,
and she too dedicates her life to the arts.
Michael lost his father when he was in his teens, leaving
him independently comfortable and spending his time writing.
Because of his father’s infidelity, he wonders if it
messed up his life growing up. For a long time he held his
father to blame for not giving his mother the happy paradise
she wanted in her life. Michael soon grows desire for many
women. When he sees a woman that strikes a sensation in him,
they normally end up together. With each woman, he learns
a lesson in itself. After meeting Dawn, he feels she might
just be the perfect soul mate for him. As Michael lives each
day he soon learns life and love hold its own little secret
that one must discover on their own.
Feeding the Squirrels is a story of a man’s
quest to find something absent in his life. Even though Michael
searches with many women to find that one link, the reader
wonders if his father had been more sensitive to his family’s
needs and not been unfaithful, would Michael have been different.
Roy L. Pickering Jr. paints a picture of a man trying to find
his own identity, while giving thought to what is really important
in life. Even though I do not agree with Michael’s promiscuous
ways, there were many women that Michael met along the way
that left a lesson in itself.

Feeding the Squirrels by Roy L. Pickering Jr. is
a short E-book surrounding the interesting but realistic dating
life of Michael. As much as we as woman don’t want to
encounter a man like Michael, many of us do…not always
being aware that it’s all about the “dating game”
with no desire of commitment. Then there are those of us that
are aware and think we can settle a man like Michael down
to being with only “us.” Yes, Michael is a worldly
man when it comes to women. Michael is a handsome and successful
man afforded the opportunities to live life as he wants due
to an inheritance left to him after the death of his father.
Michael introduces you to several of the woman that he comes
across in life as an eligible bachelor. From Natalie, a Spanish
speaking housekeeper to Jennifer, his high school sweetheart
to Sally an online dating encounter. You will either hate
Michael, be amused or say…once upon a time, I knew a
man just like him.
Michael is calculating, not willing to be committed to one
woman…enjoying the challenge of the chase of his target,
then after his thirst is quench…finding the right way
to walk away…this is the story of Michael.
Feeding The Squirrels is a great read in opening
the doors to discussions on the reasoning behind this kind
of approach to dating…is there true fulfillment from
stepping into relationships this way or is there something
missing and is Michael over compensating for… Come meet
Michael and the women he has charmed.

Ever wondered what goes through the mind of a single man
who seems to be afraid of commitment? I believe that you will
find the answer in Feeding the Squirrels by Roy L.
Pickering Jr. One man, Michael, recalls some of the many trysts
he had with women. In his mind, he likes to make sure a woman
is pleasured the right way, but once they start showing signs
of someone who wants more, they are shown to his revolving
bedroom door. When it seems like Ms. Right has finally dawned
his doorstep, his actions catch up with him. The outcome will
leave you speechless.
Feeding The Squirrels will have you shaking your
head from side to side, all the while wanting to know more.
My reading experience was impacted by a few editing mistakes
and I wished the women were more vocal. If you are looking
for a quick read to enjoy, this e-book, novella, with a little
more than sixty pages, would be my recommendation.

No Limits for Pleasure
The novella, FEEDING THE SQUIRRELS, penned by Roy L. Pickering,
Jr. is a glimpse into the mind of a man whose sexual desires
know no limits or boundaries where women are concerned. The
main character, Michael, is a writer, philanderer, conceited
and wealthy playboy who spends his time searching for his
next conquest while attempting to pen the greatest novel.
Chapter by chapter he details the different women he conquered
and the roles he plays to win his next lay.
FEEDING THE SQUIRRELS is an interesting account of one man's
deception in manipulating women for sexual satisfaction, until
he is faced with devastating consequences. This book will
enlighten women to the games some men play and will hopefully
encourage women to take better care of their hearts. It is
an enjoyable, funny, serious and revealing read. Although
the story is well-developed and the characterization is strong,
the novella can greatly benefit from another edit, as there
are some minor grammatical problems that hinder the flow in
some areas. Single women can benefit from this author's account
of what it takes to bed a woman before moving to the next
victim.
