Spare by Prince Harry

dark informative reflective sad tense slow-paced

---

This man be boring acell. This book gave Montague vs. Capulet lowkey. & Part 3 kinda ate too? 🧐

Honorable moments:

• long live lady Di. I only read this for her mentions initially. The tidbit about how Di was the only person in this godforsaken castle that treated the staff in the basement with warmth and kindness…she was such a baddie 
• In part three harry says about Botswana, “this is the world before the world was made” AHHHHH, NAHHHHH BRUH; this is the world before your fam colonized the globe to shit 😵‍💫
• Overall, the last third of the book really gave, “richest and most privileged white boy on earth learns what anti-Black racism is for the first time at the ripe age of pushing forty”, and even when he banishes himself, Meghan, and Archie to California, and still got plenty of bucks left (cause let’s not forget about Meg’s Suits residuals now!), harry still be all “woe is me”? 🫩
• I agree with harry tho that william is a childish asinine ass loser and kate most definitely set my homegirl Meg up with that one scandal. Fuck you william; and I just know lady Di wouldn’t tolerate your shenanigans, and is most definitely #TeamHarry 💯
