Harry proves he's a fallible man full of compassion, intelligence, integrity, character, and love. incredible considering the environment he grew up in. he has nothing but my respect.

4.5

I found this book to be extremely interesting, even as someone who hasn’t paid much prior attention to the royal family. It provided a lot of insight and was full of emotional moments and funny stories alike. I would highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for an intriguing memoir.

informative reflective medium-paced

3.5

A little long and rambly in parts. I felt like some things weren’t necessary and it could’ve been tightened up but who am I to tell Prince Harry how to tell his story? Well narrated (didn’t give me the ick or put me to sleep). Interesting, compelling, easy to follow. The descriptions of hunting were gory and did seem excessive. I also found the way he talked about war in Afghanistan difficult but that is due to a difference in opinion not the writing. Men will really repeatedly ask to go to an active war zone instead of going to therapy.
