Summary
Dit is het verhaal van Harry， eindelijk door hemzelf verteld。
Het was een van de meest aangrijpende beelden van de twintigste eeuw: twee jongetjes， twee prinsen， lopen achter de lijkkist van hun moeder aan terwijl de wereld vol verdriet en afschuw toekijkt。 Toen Diana， prinses van Wales， te ruste werd gelegd， vroegen miljarden mensen zich af wat de twee prinsen dachten en voelden， en hoe hun levens zich vanaf dat moment zouden ontwikkelen。
Met zijn rauwe， nietsontziende eerlijkheid is Reserve een grensverleggend boek vol inzichten， onthullingen， zelfonderzoek en zwaarbevochten wijsheid over hoe liefde het uiteindelijk wint van verdriet。

Did anyone else read the Prologue to this and think they had accidentally picked up the wrong book and was about to embark on a murder-mystery thriller？

I love books about royle family， but this was not one of them。 I waited for so long to buy an actual copy but so gonna sell it afterwards， no worth it。 There is nothing there about him， only his family

I live in Spain， so I bought this book。 In all honesty， I'm not impressed。 The easiest thing in the world is to trash your family， knowing they will not respond。Personally， I think it is vindictive， and unnecessary written from a spoiled， petulant prince。 Not good。Not particularly well-written。 A 10-day wonder。 I live in Spain， so I bought this book。 In all honesty， I'm not impressed。 The easiest thing in the world is to trash your family， knowing they will not respond。Personally， I think it is vindictive， and unnecessary written from a spoiled， petulant prince。 Not good。Not particularly well-written。 A 10-day wonder。 。。。more

When I read Spare by Prince Harry （online link）， my heart sinks。 I remember sitting with my family in front of the TV and we heard the news about his mother。 My father said at the time - this guy is not lost， but I felt sorry for him。 Years later and now his book is a revelation。 I love it so far！ When I read Spare by Prince Harry （online link）， my heart sinks。 I remember sitting with my family in front of the TV and we heard the news about his mother。 My father said at the time - this guy is not lost， but I felt sorry for him。 Years later and now his book is a revelation。 I love it so far！ 。。。more

Got the audio copy。I expected to hear about the family clashes and I did expect for the curtain to be pulled back on how things work in the foldI enjoyed the honesty of some of his mistakes made at young age but then the book made a U turn。He was mocking everyone and revealing very private details 。 I won't say to give others a chance， but the book should be retitled as "Angry spare" Got the audio copy。I expected to hear about the family clashes and I did expect for the curtain to be pulled back on how things work in the foldI enjoyed the honesty of some of his mistakes made at young age but then the book made a U turn。He was mocking everyone and revealing very private details 。 I won't say to give others a chance， but the book should be retitled as "Angry spare" 。。。more

Currently reading it just because I wanted to see if those leaks are true and it's not looking very bright for Harry。A person that wants privacy somehow has zero problems to share about his frostbitten jewels （amoung other NSFW revaluations） that nobody sane would have asked him about in the first place。 The book feels like a desperate attack towards an ex that is not picking up their phone， personal dossier of an Oedipus complex patient and what a drunkard would say to himself in the mirror to Currently reading it just because I wanted to see if those leaks are true and it's not looking very bright for Harry。A person that wants privacy somehow has zero problems to share about his frostbitten jewels （amoung other NSFW revaluations） that nobody sane would have asked him about in the first place。 The book feels like a desperate attack towards an ex that is not picking up their phone， personal dossier of an Oedipus complex patient and what a drunkard would say to himself in the mirror to prove that he doesn't have a problem。This book is a waste of time。 I felt more pride in reading Taken by the T-Rex compared to this。 If you support the Sussexes read Finding Freedom; if you don't - read Revenge， in both cases miss this one。 。。。more

Amazed that the book even made it to Goodreads。 The chap is obviously ill。 No rational individual would contradict themselves by almost each utterance。 The man is to be pitied and not criticised。 My heart goes out to him even more。

Complete lack of self awareness。 Where do I begin？ I doubt very much Harry actually wrote this book。 The style is very similar to a bad romantic novel， with shades of a thriller thrown in。Indeed， the book is at its best when describing Harry's military service， a time in his life where he appeared to be genuinely happy。But overall the reader is left with the impression of resentment （that Harry is the spare， not heir）。 William is cast in a bad light， Charles and Camelia not much better。 The desc Complete lack of self awareness。 Where do I begin？ I doubt very much Harry actually wrote this book。 The style is very similar to a bad romantic novel， with shades of a thriller thrown in。Indeed， the book is at its best when describing Harry's military service， a time in his life where he appeared to be genuinely happy。But overall the reader is left with the impression of resentment （that Harry is the spare， not heir）。 William is cast in a bad light， Charles and Camelia not much better。 The description of Charles doing handstands in his boxer shorts is not one I will forget in a hurry。 Neither， for that matter， reading about how Harry suffered from a frost bitten penis！Not a biography I would recommend。 。。。more

A bit tonedeaf to release a book about how difficult your lavish and very privileged life is （which I am sure it is in its own respect） while lower and working class Britain is left freezing this winter。You didnt choose this life but neither did anyone else here。Not reading this， just wanted to share my thoughts。

It's not an autobiography - it's a kind of PR self-suicide。 Harry's allegations against the family， in the book， he described in such a bizarre and petty way that readers can only laugh。 Seriously， is it a problem that the older brother took up most of the room？ How many families are like this？ Would you consider writing it in your own book？ No， but Harry thought。 After reading， I can say one thing - the author is devoid of self-criticism。 He's a hypocrite （he talks about privacy and he violates It's not an autobiography - it's a kind of PR self-suicide。 Harry's allegations against the family， in the book， he described in such a bizarre and petty way that readers can only laugh。 Seriously， is it a problem that the older brother took up most of the room？ How many families are like this？ Would you consider writing it in your own book？ No， but Harry thought。 After reading， I can say one thing - the author is devoid of self-criticism。 He's a hypocrite （he talks about privacy and he violates his family's privacy - he mentions that Will is circumcised（！！！！） WTF？！）。 Waste of money。 If you're going to spend money， buy a book by a gifted writer， not a guy who makes his living smearing his family。 In times of global crisis， there's nothing more irritating than a privileged guy complaining that his big brother took up most of the room！ Yes， such regrets were described by Harry in his book。 I have shivers of embarrassment down my spine。。。 。。。more

2。5 Stars。 I read this for the tea ofcourse。 I have never assumed this very public family spat to be some anti monarchist take down of a colonialist family， unlike many who did。 Nobody was surprised when it was revealed that the British Royal Family is racist。 Centuries of colonialism， imperialism and oppression， blood and slavery is what their wealth and legacy is built upon。 Sure Harry is allowed to tell his story but his woes are a tale as old as age。 The poor， neglected second son of the Pri 2。5 Stars。 I read this for the tea ofcourse。 I have never assumed this very public family spat to be some anti monarchist take down of a colonialist family， unlike many who did。 Nobody was surprised when it was revealed that the British Royal Family is racist。 Centuries of colonialism， imperialism and oppression， blood and slavery is what their wealth and legacy is built upon。 Sure Harry is allowed to tell his story but his woes are a tale as old as age。 The poor， neglected second son of the Prince of England， his sibling rivalry with his older brother who is supposed to be the king one day， his wayward cheating father， a mistreated mother who is more of an iconized entity to him and the pop culture than a humane figure and basically a very cold life that is centered around trying to uphold a system， an institution。 William is just another side of the same coin。 Both him and his brother are bound by the institution to do a job and both of them made their own choices to do so in their own ways。 William is willing to uphold the tradition and Harry isn't。 Not in the way HE wanted to。And it's also not surprising at all that Charles and Camilla would try to use other family members to reinstate their image in front of the public。 Charles would likely have a considerably short rule， the highlight of his royal career being his scandals with wife and mistress。 It doesn't help him that the monarchy is losing its shine more and more with time where in the 21st century they are just a symbol for the decadence of the old regimes （also against the claims of them boosting tourism for UK， they don't actually）。I don't understand what kind of reaction Harry expects from the public。 He isn't trying to take a stance against a colonialist institution， he is just lamenting at not being allowed to take part in the institution the way he wanted。 He isn't really a sympathetic figure。 He is a jilted figure who has bitterness against the family for not putting him on a pedestal。 All of Harry's promises of "reforming" the British media are painfully empty when there is not a single reproach from him towards "The Firm"。 You cannot reform such institutions you can only destroy and if you reform then you will just mold them to suit your agendas。 Harry's problems with the British media is that it doesn't make him into an icon the way he wants to be made。 Needless to say Prince Harry isn't a writer。 I won't be surprised if there is some ghostwriting involved here。 He goes into details of all his youthful dalliances and physical altercations with his brother but is neglectful （purposeful？） in the way he dismisses the racism。 He says his family isn't racist but that it's an unconscious bias which is enough to show me that Harry himself isn't really well versed with how racism really works because little microaggressions also constitute as racism。 Apart from that there isn't much to talk about in this book。 He isn't as much of a sympathetic figure as he portrays himself to be。 Overall this book was as memoirs always go for me。 I have never been their biggest fan unless they provide insight to extraordinary experiences of an extraordinary human being。 The Royal Family simply doesn't have that kind of interest from me。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 I skimmed this as a lot of the book has been leaked ahead of its release。 I feel readers will benefit from getting ‘the complete picture’。 Chapter 11 goes into great detail and gives reasons as to why Prince Harry is so angry。 Harry tells of yearly trips to his local AMF bowling alley on his birthday and how every year he never got the strike he so desperately desired。 Even with the bumpers up he just couldn’t get all the pins down on his first go。 This happened every year from ages 6 to 15。 I t I skimmed this as a lot of the book has been leaked ahead of its release。 I feel readers will benefit from getting ‘the complete picture’。 Chapter 11 goes into great detail and gives reasons as to why Prince Harry is so angry。 Harry tells of yearly trips to his local AMF bowling alley on his birthday and how every year he never got the strike he so desperately desired。 Even with the bumpers up he just couldn’t get all the pins down on his first go。 This happened every year from ages 6 to 15。 I think people need to read this before being so quick to judge。 。。。more
