Prince Harry's tell-all memoir "Spare" has become the fastest-selling non-fiction book of all time, according to Guinness World Records.
It came after 1.43 million copies were sold during its first-day sale in the UK, US, and Canada.
Penguin Random House announced Wednesday that first-day sales for the Harry’s tell-all memoir topped 1.4 million copies, a record pace for non-fiction from a company that also publishes Barack and Michelle Obama, whose "Becoming" needed a week to reach 1.4 million when it was released in 2018.
The sales figures for "Spare" include hardcover, audiobook and e-book editions sold in the U.S., Canada and the United Kingdom.

I doubt this. What has likely happened is the same thing with Obama’s books. The vested interest fronted Harry all the money on presumed sales and the real sales are being used to pay back the front mkney. I don’t believe for a second that 1.43 million people bought this book.
The Montecito duo probably bought many of them.
Well said.
Obama was understandable as they were grooming him for the POTUS run, and it’s a nice way to launder campaign money. I’m not sure what the incentive is for this guy?
People also like to stop and view wrecks on the highway.
Harry’s book is all about him, the wrecked royal.
This is the most disturbing part. Especially to hear it narrated in his own voice.
Gossip sells.
Thanks. Sounds like a “must miss”. Somehow I think I’ll get by just fine without reading the whole thing.
Wut? Is there a toilet paper shortage?
And you are gosdiping like a little school girl.
There is no such thing as bad publicity.
You’re probably right. They inflate the sales, which drives the press and public curiosity, which drives actual sales.
Even then, vendors must mark down steeply. In six months they’ll fill up the Dollar Tree bins.
And nobody will remember a single word of it.
I’m not purchasing the book, nor am I posting threads here or anywhere.
Nice try skirt…
Non-Fiction??
Destruction of the Royal Family, as a step to bring nack Britain into the EU.
Harry makes a living(a good living) bashing his own family.
That is all he has to offer.
I would find it more interesting if his wife posed nude for Playboy. That way the little pimp could also make some cash and I would actually have an interest.
If you saw the wedding and saw the “rockin’ black choir” you’d know this thing was going too fast for the curve.
What? Where did you hear that?
Maybe he can do that because he can do what he wants and he knows that the family will never tell.
Come to think of it, the Palace had to know about Andrew a long time ago. Coverups are a way of life with this family.
