Harry's Spare book, now half price at Waterstones.

[username8888]

£14 and not even released yet. Probably six pre book sales. 🤣

But I do! I intend to order a copy! Just sharing the joy here amongst fellow lovers of the RF

How can a strangers book bother you so much? It's batshit! 😁

How kind of you to think of others like that OP. I think that you are performing a terrific public service by doing so.

Michelle Obama's new book The Light We Carry.

That was to @Miss03852

Sometimes I think the dross of the world congregate on Mumsnet. What a saddo

I'm not necessarily a lover of the RF but I recognise snide remarks when I see them.

Any snide remarks for Michelle Obama, OP? As pps say, her new book is half price and is going to be another bestseller too. I have read an extract and it was excellent.

Michelle Obama is an astonishingly accomplished woman and a true and good representative of African American people. I love her and her DH even more. Inspiring couple.

The OP is showing themselves up with every post.

I'm sorry you have a low opinion of others. Just why are you here too? Or don't you count yourself as a poster?

Pot, kettle, black springs to mind.
Your second post of So much for a world publishing phenomenon spoke volumes, yet now you are all ‘I love PH’ 🙄

Exactly. PH's book is being sold in exactly the same way as Michelle Obama's and others, yet everyone else is spared the OP's sniping.

New books are not marked down to half price so soon unless they’re not selling/market indicators show they’re not going to sell at higher price. Use your common sense.

That goes for all the brand new but half price (not 10% off but half price) books mentioned on this thread. They’re all by public figures with the same far leftist ideology. Same ones pushing the trans agenda to erase women’s rights, and a lot of other controlling agendas. Harry, the Obamas, Jamie Oliver, they all are in with it.

People are seeing that and they’re not buying their books in droves anymore. There is a lot of corruption going on around us, how issues are framed, everything.

How many pages? I will consider it if the price of loo paper keeps going up.

It’s half price (per-order) in WH Smith’s too. I think it’s a marketing ploy for highly anticipated releases to boost the pre order sales.

I’m actually tempted to get it for that price. No way am I paying full price for it! Otherwise I will wait for it to come out at the library.

Also, Michelle Obama is releasing a new book??? 🤩🤩🤩 Thank you for this information! Another book I need to smuggle in and hide from hubby (he thinks I already have too many books and banned me from buying any more 🙄)

I think a lot of books sell at a reduced rate if you pre-order before the release date.

New books are not marked down to half price so soon unless they’re not selling/market indicators show they’re not going to sell at higher price. Use your common sense

Not true. It’s half price because the sales are a given, it’s just a question of where a person is going to buy it from. And each retailer wants it to be from them.

A publishing conspiracy theorist, love it!

It's a sales tactic. PH's book will sell like hot cakes.

Why does she have to represent African American people? Do you think a white person you like (presumably not PH) is a good representative of white people?

This alone tells me what may be influencing your views of PH and MM

Agree with you there @PinkFrogss. The sheer venom directed at the couple on MN is ridiculous. It sometimes feels like posters are waiting with baited breath for them to split up so that they could say I told you so. Unfortunately for them Harry and Meghan seem perfectly content with each other.

Like pretty much eery other hard back autobiography in my experience.
I normally buy via Amazon but sometimes by in stores. I can't remember the last time I paid full price for a new book of that type. Even pre orders for those kind of books are normally starting off at half price. the RRP means nothing in my experience of book buying.

Can all the diversity of black Americans be represented by one woman?

Michelle Obamas book is four years old though, obviously the price will go down, Harry’s is brand new.

Isn't it her new one?

So if no one are buying this ebooks, how come they are so high in the book charts already?
