Not blaming just explaining

Can’t wait to read it. He’s the smartest and best Royal.

Fastest selling pile of garbage.

An useless man who betrayed his for money.

Puleeze!!! Uuuugggghhhhh!!!

This is one book that will never come through my door!

Bring back the stocks. Or the Inquisition for that matter. 'Anyone buying this will trash spend a day being pelted with garbage.'

Strange as I haven’t bought it and no one I know has bought it!

Congratulations to Harry. It has not only sold at those record levels but highly rated by readers , 4.5 stars on Amazon worldwide. The only low ratings are from the English 😉

Why give that sot your money

Stop making news out of it. This guy do not deserve being in the top. Disgraces the thouthands years of history. Shame

Non-fiction? Interesting, not.

Everyone wanted to know what happened to his penis! ThePrinceAndHisPenis

I'm buying 👌🏾

Why is Harry’s book called non-fiction? Spare a thought

Good on him

Money is still about to waste on this then? Thought everyone was broke according to you.?

🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊

Maybe the British will realize it is time to defund the royals

Strange how the BBC seem to be the only news outlet in the UK not to have reported on the Iran response to this entitled little dharlings boasting of killing 25 people… unless I missed it of course. Impartial reporting 👍

Great Book! I am currently reading it! WELL DONE Harry!!!!!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

..it’s brilliant.. I threatened to read it to my son if he doesn’t pull his finger out at school.. he’s currently triple checking his maths.. 👏

🥱

Great book, nice to hear the truth for once and not the lies the daily fail print

Who on earth bought it?

Every shop I have seen has it on sale for half price

Oh good

Boring next

From royalty to entertainment personality is complete. Now we just have to wait for some manufactured bullshit for Harry and Meghan to split up, like some American reality show. Wait for it

Fiction drama you mean

No, surely categorised as ‘fiction’😁

This book should not have come on the market and it should have been burnt.

Non fiction you say? 🤔

He sold his family in order get attention and publicity

Stop calling it non-fiction since chunks of it clearly are fiction.

Well that will make his pockets a ego even bigger

Haha Perfect.

Be that as it may, it went on pre-order sale before Christmas at half price. Personally I would not use it as toilet paper or line my cats tray with it. Anyone paying for their toxic rhetoric are as bad as the Duke & Duchess of Duplicity. Have a TOTAL media blackout.

Yes it is and selling fast in Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️

😴😴😴😴😴😴

Can’t believe anybody would buy it!

Who said it’s not fiction Bony and Clyde ride again

Fiction more like.

Already got some in charity shop ☺️

But it's full of holes and lies so surely it's a book of fiction 🤔🤔🤔

Having had it FACTCHECKED shouldn't it now be in the FICTION Section?

Yes cheaper than toilet rolls 😂

Fastest selling book? Who the hell is buying it? I wouldn’t have one given!

DougStanhope bad news, Lad

So it doesn’t matter what type of publicity as long as it achieved the goal! It’s done Harry has made enough out of his own family and joined the bandwagon of the reality show industry.

Non-fiction? Really?

Harry becomes an very evil man. Desperately seeking attention in every way he can get it.

Do sales at WH Smith, and other retailers selling their stock at half price, qualify in record attempts?

So many claiming it’s fiction, acting like they’ve spent time with the royal family and have insight others don’t. 🤣

Most of it is fiction though HarryandMeghanExposed

'I want privacy' then has multiple interviews 🤦‍♂️

Non-fiction?!

How Sad

None fiction book?

I didn't buy it and won't.

Is that spare parts needed

Didn’t you mean fiction book?

I'll buy one if there's ever a toilet paper shortage.

Money into ghostwriting didn't go to waste I guess

I do hope Harry has signed a water-tight pre nup !!

Ha ha, but it’s total Fiction!!!! 😁

A sad day for reading indeed.

This is last week's news. Keep up.

Truth prevails

‘Non fiction’ 🤪 Next you will be saying Greta’s latest stunt was not staged.

*Fiction

Non fiction? Really 🤔

Seriously

A one sided story is only half of story

Don’t believe for one second fastest selling etc..they are giving the book for free, I ordered 1 and received 2, the publisher just keep on promoting the book as if it’s mana from heaven but truth be told they’ve lost money. . Stop the lies now.

being used for toilet paper?

Lie!

Non- Fiction

So, after saying all manners of Bull-shit, they still bought the book making him richer.

💤💤💤 it’s all over now let it rest in peace. Who is actually bothered

Classifying his “truth” as non fiction has to be a case of mis selling!

Except it’s fiction.

Will's pulling his hair out. Nm..

So disappointed in the general public. Unless there's a toilet paper shortage.

fastest selling on fb marketplace for a fiver

Fiction more so

Do you mean Fiction

People must be short of heating fuel.

So happy for him! Owning your voice, and making it known is a bold step for any victim of childhood trauma. Proud of him!

I know we all love a bargain & 50% off on day of release a massive discount but as all we hear is ppl on over average salary r using food banks, can't afford a 20p bar of soap & r freezing in their homes how hv so many got the cash 2 spend on a book already PROVEN 2 b lies ?

Brilliant!

Meanwhile...

Don't tell Piers Morgan he'll have a heart attack brought on by pure rage 🤣

What about Nadahim Zahawi and his tax avoidance? I'd argue that's a bigger story getting a lot less attention. From the BBC at least!

Spare me please

My book to it is being written, it is called Spare Me !

Non fiction did you say?

Are you sure it’s non-fiction?

Numbers don't lie👏👏👏 Prince Harry keeps winning. At least the haters get to pay for all the hatred he endured with his wife. SparebyPrinceHarry shows that truth will always win over lies by palace faceless sources. Cowards hide behind sources while heroes speak boldly.

I thought 90% was not interested ? Anyway 💅

None fiction?

It's probably because it's cheaper than toilet roll

Well toilet paper is pretty expensive nowadays so as an alternative...?

Thank UK! We know u got this 😂

who want to spend money in such rubbish? Oh yes, the non brits

Only read to be mocked.

Non fiction 😂😂😂😂😂

Harry Potter is more non fiction than this 🤣😂🤣

So the publisher is buying em all back then

randomhouse This SPARE cover needs color correcting!! Why is Harry the same color as the background?

Why is BBC saying anything nice about Prince Harry, because I put them in the same light of the other BP. They are out to make money on telling negative stories against Prince Harry and Meghan. What is the world coming to when the BBC is no better than the Daily Fail.

Amazing book, I bought 3 of them

Thought it was a box of hair dye.

How to auto-sabotage yourself fast! 🤣

Non fiction ?

Should be in the fiction section

If he isn’t Royal, I don’t think that books can’t sell much? He is a traitor.

Congratulations ✌🏽❤️

Sell a book. Sell out your family. Enjoy the view of a bridge burnt for a little money.

Enooooouuugh 🙄

Toilet paper still running low post pandemic

“Non-fiction” 😂

You told us that last week so why is it news again now

Horrible little man

Don’t fund these shameless feeeloaders. Ask him to find a REAL job

Pretty sure danwootton said it was in the bargain bin. Looks like Dan knows sweet fk all.

How maddening to real authors everywhere

Don’t think so.

Non-fiction?

Don’t need Royal money now. Nuh!

Can’t wait to see what happens. This is just like watching soap.

I'm sure it pains you to say it. Smashing records within a week of release

If only Harry could stay in touch with himself. Focus his Zen and centre his chakras. (Which can help with chafing) This would help with his inner turmoil of being born the spare. But whoami to say.

Congratulations Prince Harry. Thank you for your work and humanity. You are an inspiration. We love you.

The thing is that if Satan published a manifesto too people would buy it to see what it said. It doesnt mean they agree with it. The Bible - all time best seller but little evidence many people take it seriously unless an out of context quote justifies what they were doing anyway

The most important customer might be people in the palace 😁. Kidding 😄

Love It ❤️

They will hide him away in a mental institution

The same people that buy Kardashians items.

Everyone needs cheap fuel for fireplaces

What a surprise 😲 i thought UK tabloids wrote no one is interested to read?

I feels sad for all the bird cage bottoms these will cover. Birds deserve better.

Goaway BBC news about the royal family I don't care

Cannot believe this is coming from the BBC. They are the obedient and subservient mouthpiece of the RF, and they are public funded!

You mean fiction?

Standing ovation! Should be a huge source of pride for every person in the U.K.

DEAR HARRY AND MEGHAN. I WILL LAY A COMMEMORATIVE WREATH FOR YOU ANYWHERE ANYTIME. JUST ASK. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙Layawreathforharry

Cheaper fuel than gas to heat your home.

😁

From what I hear there is more Fiction than Non Fiction in his story

Ughh why Britain, whyyy?!

* Arguably Fiction

institutions and families that have survived thousands of years are trying to be dwarfed by the upper class. poor The prince , where are the guardians and knights of this family, are they just silent.

Harry you needed to write your story for the history books not tabloid fodder. Would you like someone you have never met, never ever spoke with you, Never been to your home or hung out with you and your friends write your story. I absolutely wouldn’t! Would you?

Misprint. It is fiction!

Why? Who is wasting their money on this?

FAKE NEWS ! It is FICTION!! So it does not count ...

Flying onto the shelves of your local charity shops in a couple of months when winter ends

Some of it is fiction 😋

Prince Harry's SparebyPrinceHarry non fiction? What ever makes you think that !!!

And it's wound the gammons up hahahahahahahahaha good lad Harry

Wouldn't buy that book

I would rather read directly from Harry than listening to sycophantic media that attacks him with an agenda to harm him.

Serial killer in the making. Vile man

Keep it over there, please.

Non fiction? Okay...

They need to redefine ‘non-fiction’ then.

As no proof offered clearly a fiction book

Revenge Served Sizzling 🥵🙌🏾

I thought it had been established that it was fiction?

Who is daft enough to buy such rubbish?

Haven't read the book..but glad it's out in the open..nothing wrong with brothers having a go at each other..shows normal family life..but one name comes to mind..that could explain a lot..the exquisitely beautiful Diana...

Excellent. He deserves success after such vile bullying in the right wing press.

And really good 🧻

PearlKadupul CongratulationsPrinceHarry 🎉🎉🎉 and thats just physical book sales + 250,000 in audio and E-sales in the UK

I’d argue whether it’s non fiction

I was told on twitter that no one cared what he had to say 😱

'Non-fiction' you say!

It’s an extraordinary book. Honest, sensitive, moving. The liars of the British gutter press are absolutely odious and have blood on their hands. I recommend listening to him narrate his book on audible. The vile and dangerous bots and trolls are the foulest liars.

Charity shops will be plagued by them in a few months.

Looooooool 'non fiction'

Are you sure it’s non fiction?I thought it belonged in the fiction or a fictional theatre production?least then he might be contributing to some British culture- honestly king should strip his title already 100years ago he would have ended up in the Tower…bloody woke laws 🤣

Yes but is it non fiction

Don’t believe that

After that, he now calmly puts his head to sleep every night...

Fuel shortage heard it burns well in a wood burner

Non-fiction

Who wrote it.

Rubbish seen loads on shelves

Non fiction?
