Will you be buying Prince Harry's book, Spare? Have your say in our poll

Prince Harry's controversial memoir, Spare, has been released in the UK. Some queued overnight to get their hands on a copy of the book - but there didn't seem to be much interest in it in Nottingham earlier on Tuesday (January 10).

Spare is being sold for £14, not the recommended retail price of £28, in bookshops such as Waterstones and WHSmith as well as online at Amazon. The memoir was first leaked in Spain, where it mistakenly went on sale last week, and a host of revelations and private details about Harry's life and family have since emerged.

The book includes allegations that Harry's brother, the Prince of Wales, physically attacked him. Philip Jones, editor of The Bookseller, told the PA news agency that Spare is set to become one of the biggest books of the year 'in terms of sales and impact'.

Asked how many copies a book has to sell to do well, Mr Jones said if it reaches 50,000 it will be 'number one' and a 'success'. On Tuesday (January 10), Spare was number one in the UK Amazon chart and was listed as a bestseller on the company's audiobook arm Audible and on Waterstones' website.
