I read this after finishing all seasons of The Crown in the past month, so I was craving hearing more about the royal family. I absolutely loved hearing Harry’s POV! The description was strong, the emotions were raw and I felt his pain and anxiety as if it was my own. I usually read non-fiction books quite slowly, only tackling small chunks at a time, but I couldn’t put this book down. I only gave it a 4 because at some points, his storytelling was all over the place. I kind of got used to the style though, and by the end he was more focused.

An enjoyable listen. I liked listening to Harry tell his own story. I feel sorry for how he has been treated by the media and his family. It was interesting to hear about his time in the army and about his love of Africa.

Strangely written and slightly immature, but also interesting to see into such a different life

“Whatever the cause, my memory is my memory, it does what it does, gathers and curates as it sees fit, and there’s just as much truth in what I remember and how I remember it as there is in so-called objective facts. Things like chronology and cause-and-effect are often just fables we tell ourselves about the past. The past is never dead. It’s not even past.”
