Prince Harry has become one of the best-selling authors in 2023, thanks to his memoir Spare. In his book, the Duke of Sussex shared many instances that scarred his relationship with his brother and father. It was indeed this honesty that the book became an instant success, even making its place in the Guinness Book of World Records. With this, there also came hopes for Grammy nominations. Even quite recently, Penguin Random House also listed its audiobook for a Grammy Consideration for the Best Audio Book, Narration & Storytelling Recording award.

While all eyes were on Spare to get a Grammy nomination, it did not make it to the list of 2023 nominees. Despite this, the former working royal and his memoir achieved yet another nomination along with many others from this year.

Spare nominated for this category

Goodreads recently announced the final round of voting for the Goodreads Choice Award of 2023, which will end in five days. The nomination list for it included the Prince Harry’s Spare in the list. The memoir got a nomination under the category of Best Memoir & Autobiography. Upon its release, this bombshell book made countless headlines in the media. From revelations about the growing distance between him and his brother, Prince William, to the treatment of the royal family, the Royal Highness left no pebble unturned in his memoir.

While the Prince’s memoir made it to the list, it is not ‘spared’ as it competes against many other celebrities who launched their memoirs this year. The list includes Britney Spears’ The Woman in Me, Paris: The Memoir by Paris Hilton, and Elliot Page’s Pageboy. Despite meeting with a great reception, Jada Pinkett’s Smith, Worthy was not seen on the list despite also overpowering Spare after its release.

While Spare was released to record-breaking success, becoming one of the top three bestsellers in its first week, it has still maintained its winning streak with many titles to its name.

Prince Harry did a great job in penning down his life history 

Published in January, Spare has held the attention of people around the globe to this moment. Times has listed it among the top 100 Must-Read books of 2023. The Washington Post noted it as the most talked-about book of 2023 and added it to the 50 notable works of nonfiction on their outlet. Also, the famed magazine in the UK, The New Statesman chose it among their favorite readings of the year. The Sunday Times regarded Spare as Memoir of the Year.

Not just that, Amazon-led Audible named it one of the best celebrity memoirs of 2023. According to them, Prince Harry’s narration would remind listeners of his late mother Princess Diana, and how much he was like her. Despite the memoir’s shocking revelations, Spare continues to stay true to its winning streak!
