Prince Harry continues to drive sales of his first book Spare as sales break first day records – 1.43 million copies sold so far in US, UK, Canada & the UK
Spare – the tell all memoirs of the Prince that walked away from a Royal family continues to astound global sales records as it crosses all expectations. Word has it, the book is flying off shelves faster than you can blink and due to the divisive nature of the conversations, there are as many people for the narrative as against it, depending upon which side of the royal debate you vibe with!
Harry and Meghan’s supporters – Camp Harry and Meghan couldn’t be more delighted and while the book is being censured for revealing too much, it has garnered support from those who see him wronged as well as Die hard Princess Diana supporters who feel the Royals have finally met their match, and from one within them.
Here’s a recap of twitter celebrations at present. Join the party if you’re one of them, or opt out and pick up another read if you’re not. This one’s not going away so fast and Prince Harry’s stint on the late night Stephen Colbert show was certainly the cherry on top for his fans – he was more candid, relaxed and brought along his signature sense of humour which seemed to be greatly lacking in the past UK based interviews he had done earlier – anybody’s guess why?
Drum roll – here’s the big, breaking news!
1.43 MILLION copies (all formats) first day sales in the US, Canada, & the UK!!! #CongratulationsPrinceHarry #GoodKingHarry The New York Times: Prince Harry’s ‘Spare’ Memoir Breaks Sales Records.
So it’s all in the reporting – but perspectives matter, or they don’t anymore perhaps?
On your best selling Autobiography Keep on being your AUTHENTIC self. We love you for this! You are a true KING & fierce warrior taking on the sleaze of Fleet Street via Murdoch/Rothermere publications. #IBelievePrinceHarry
And that’s a large feather in your cap Prince Harry! Penguin House is pleased, very pleased!
And @PenguinRandom House have just announced that the English language edition of Prince Harry’s #SPARE has now sold more than 1.4 million copies (across all formats) in the US, Canada and UK. After printing two million hardbacks in the US, it’s already in its second run.
Fasting selling indeed! More than the very fast selling Atomic Habits we hear. Non Fiction just got an industry boost!
Though some argue (from the other camp), if it’s non fiction?
Princess Diana supporters spotted!
Diana started it. Harry finished it. Congratulations Prince Harry you absolute hero. #Spare #SparebyPrinceHarry
Yes, it’s a dream haul – best seller is an understatement!
So, if I’m not mistaken, Harry has sold over 1,610,000 books in the U.S., the U.K., Canada, France, and Ireland in 1 freaking day! #CongratulationsPrinceHarry
The Late Night Stephen Colbert Show was a sure winner btw!
In France,#Spare sold out all the 200,000 copied printed in French in a single day. They are publishing 50,000 more copies of Prince Harry’s memoir to meet demand . #SparebyPrinceHarry Don’t forget to watch him on The Late show with Stephen #Colbert
listen to that introduction and the cheers that follow from the audience chanting HARRY HARRY #SparebyPrinceHarry(
Hmmm, Bachelor woes here
If I don’t get a man like Prince Harry….forget it, it might not be worth it. His courage to fight a whole system for his lady love and children is admirable. He truly has the ginger gene, his mom has been channeled in him. Congratulations Prince Harry
Oops, King Charles makes his first public appearance today after the book launch, that’s tough!
“Harry is almost 40 and he’s still whining.” Here’s a 50 year old man whining about mummy & being bullied in school. BTW, he had both of his parents. #CongratulationsPrinceHarry
And Congratulations Prince Harry Trends!
Congratulations Prince Harry. You Should Be Proud of The Man You Have Become. One That Stands Up For What’s Right & Not Afraid To Have Those Difficult Conversations. Empathy, Humbleness, Giving & Caring About The World Around Us. #PrinceHarry #SparebyPrinceHarry #GoodKingHarry
And that’s all folks, if you haven’t bought a copy yet, or wondering what’s the buzz all about, go ahead and give this a read, it might convince you to know more about the ral life stories of the rich and famous with a sprinkling of truth, or fiction – whichever side you’re on. Or maybe, if you don’t take sides, you might get the most out of the memoirs of a prince, a collector’s item from the times we live in?
