Im my family it's all factual stuff, I can't ever remember my parents owning a single novelDerail but it’s so interesting how ADHD brains differ. I’m completely the opposite- give me a narrative that I’m interested in and I’m fine. But I really struggle with factual books including (auto)biographies. I think the only biography I’ve managed to finish was Douglas Adams, and that was written by Neil Gaiman iirc so written well and really entertaining.
Harry’s does sound like it’s got quite a narrative though
I wonder if it'll end up like 50 shades- charity shops jut fling those into the skip out the back, no point trying to sell them.

Regarding EII's popularity, for people of a certain age, the Queen had a 'did her duty during the war' thing going on as well. For younger people, I think she had just been there for so long, they weren't in the habit of thinking about alternatives. I got that impression when I said 'fuck the queen' in conversations with random people. 'You can't say that.' 'I just did.'

Yes, I remember. Then she explained that her first priority had been looking after the two bereaved kids in the immediate aftermath, and the antipathy seemed to melt away.
I don't think Charles and Camilla are particularly popular even now.

I accept the polls that on
I do think there's a difference between (a) reading and posting on this thread and taking an interest in the absurd soap antics of these mediocre people, and (b) actually spending money on the book.
To my mind, it's worse if Brits (or perhaps just the English) are buying this tosh (rather then people from other countries) - to me it suggests a nation of fawning lickspittles, doffing their caps at these dysfunctional toffs who can't even put toothpaste on their brushes without the aid of a flunkie.
Isn't this deferential balderdash the mentality whereby fuckpigs like Cameron or Johnson are deemed to be suitable leaders of the country - whereas surely a sane electorate would rule them out precisely because as old Etonians, old Oxfordians etc, they come from an uber-privileged bubble and therefore have no grasp of real life as lived by ordinary people?
Nation of toadies. It makes me seethe with rage
I expect you're right, especially if it's Amazon's no.1. It's rather disheartening nonetheless, to think there are millions of people prepared to shell out hard-earned cash on Harold's dismal memoirs. I don't suppose these customers are all fawning toadies, but big sales will only encourage him to write another tawdry tome, wallowing in his anguish.

I remember that.
I didnt believe it at the time. It felt like all of them were hiding.
I wonder if Harry says anything about it in the book?

A bit like my pawn shop movie rating system. I used to shop for videos at pawn shops and you could tell the good from the bad by starting with the number 10 and subtracting the number of copies on the shelf from that to get a fairly reasonable rating of the movie.

Yup, like Charles wasn't really to blame. It was the wicked woman who turned the prince into a tampon.

It’s just celeb gossip with a royal coat of arms. Of course it’s going to sell like hot cakes. People love gossip. Even this hive of baby eating anarchists is creaming themselves over It’s Royal Jeremy Kyle Show
I think you're focusing on all the trivial shit like his fucked up childhood. Not the important issues like being ridden like a stallion out the back of the pub and almost losing his cock in the arctic. Or...

I have no interest in reading his book but my god he seems to have covered a whole lot of shit.

British charity shops are normally stuffed full of third rate biographies, there's always at least one Spice Girl biog in here.

I blame their rigid family system partly for that. Its ok to marry a virginal girl you don't love, but god forbid you marry a divorced woman you do.

They have a "Clearance" which amounts to the same thing, I think.

Given all the publicity, I'd have been amazed if it hadn't gone straight to number 1, tbh. It's going to sell millions. They won't care if it eventually ends up in a skip behind a charity shop, just as the author of 50 Shades won't lose sleep over that.
I've never shopped there but his tips do sound good to help with the cost of living crisis.. Tbh these stories sound like satire but they're all real quotes from this book. Priceless.
Nandos. TkMaxx, talking to bins on shrooms. It's got it all.

its a pity he's been booted, imagine TK with a Royal Warrant over the doors, what would it say? 'Suppliers of Deadstock, end of lines and faulty goods to'
