Spare

by Prince Harry

Harry's memoir, ghostwritten by J. R. Moehringer: his mother's death, the army, the press, his brother, Meghan and the break from the family. Well-written, self-justifying in places, and revealing about grief and institutions.

Three things you will actually use

  1. Unprocessed grief shapes decades.
  2. Institutions protect themselves.
  3. Leaving has costs and freedoms.

Do this first

Read the chapters on his mother's death and his years of not grieving.

Our verdict

Well-crafted, self-justifying.
