Memoirs are a little hard to rate ... I don't want to say a person's LIFE is good/bad. Even with so much going on ... it's not  a "story" per se, with characters and an arc and a resolution to the action. Here, while of course I've heard of Harry, I remember where we were when Princess Diana was killed. I sort of followed the romance with Meghan (had seen her in suits) and their exit from Royal life ... I'm not a big fan/follower of British royalty.  Still, this book had enough buzz, and as I'm attempting to get more non-fiction into my monthly repertoire, I figured I'd give this a go. I liked it fine, learned a little... I'm not sure how much I'll really remember. 

It was very slow to start ... I was almost wondering if it would be a DNF for me. I went ahead and kept listening and eventually got pulled in enough to keep going and finish.  A memoir is personal, it's that individuals recollection of how things happened, how they perceive events and emotions. It isn't always the truth, even if they believe it to me. I always have to take things with a grain of salt, and wonder what others would say in rebuttal to how things are presented. Wonder how even the author (I know this was ghost-written, but still consider Harry the "author" of the main ideas and presentation) would change the "story" if written later in life, with more time passed. 

Our family is a big fan of The It Crowd TV series ... as Harry started speaking, he sounded so much like Richmond from the show (a goth recluse). And then he'd say things like "we were bonking off" which is SO Moss (an IT nerd). My brain struggled a little with that. 

I also have some issues with drinking/drugs and relating to people who use/abuse them. There's just a wall, a disconnect. It's just another world, it's not something I do. Sometimes I struggle feeling compassion when people get into trouble because of the drugs/drinking ...  I just dislike it so much. It's hard to read about it when it seems to be such a big part of the person's life. 

There was proFanity (x19).  First person/past tense.  Three parts, with chapters that restarted numerically in each part. LOTS of chapters.
