Spare by Prince Harry


Star Rating: ★★★★★

I don't know if there is any other way to read 'Spare' other than to have Prince Harry narrating it for you. It was the only palatable aspect of the story, frankly. While I wasn't looking for a dirty, behind-the-scenes tell-all, I also wasn't looking for what seems to be a continuous paradox he faces - endlessly drawing attention to himself while condemning the fame he has. I admire how frank he is in his memoir, especially given how private The Royal Family is. But, the whole time I listened, I wondered if he maybe should have continued self-improvement and therapy before finalizing this memoir. I suspect in due time he will regret sharing many of these stories, and I also question if the motive for sharing now in haste is due to the aforementioned paradox he seems to find himself in.
