I genuinely enjoyed reading this. Yes, at times it felt like a cry for pity heard from the literal palace, but privilege in one aspect of life does not ensure privilege in all aspects of life. Imagine being chased at all times by the very people who's pursuit killed your mother. I found his childhood stories interesting and enjoyable. The stories of travel, hiking, war, were all wonderful. I'm really glad he spoke his truth when it came to what happened with the Media and Meghan, howvwr unfortunately due to the nature of the content, the book because very heavy at that point, and I'm not quite sure the ending left me feeling resolved, but I guess that's the point.
