amyt1992 's review for:

Spare by Prince Harry
2.75
emotional informative reflective tense slow-paced

I started this book thinking it might change the perception of Harry and Meghan as wanting their cake and eating it too- wanting to have privacy but also wanting to work in media writing a book and making shows,  thought seeing the other side of the story might change my perspective but it's only reinforced what I thought. Harry has taken no responsibility and makes excuses and blames everyone else; saying he didn't know a Hitler uniform was offensive and inappropriate for instance and saying that Meghan never said a bad word about anyone ever, which is hard to believe especially when in key moments he vividly describes the sights, sounds and smells in vivid detail but can't remember the conversation.  To me it very much reads as someone telling you what he wants you to believe and though I dont think it is all false or that the monarchy is blameless I also dont think he us an innocent victim. It was a boring, slow read.
