Waterstones says it sold out of its more than 100 copies of Prince Harry's controversial new memoir within just three days of it hitting the shelves - though there are still 'spare' copies elsewhere.
Sophia Skimming, a staff member at the King Street book store, said: "It's quite unusual for us to be selling that many copies already but we are really excited a book has finally made it into the world of news and its doing this well."
She added: "There's a new Harry on the block, other than Harry Potter."
The shop has confirmed that more copies are already on the way, so shop regulars won't find themselves going spare.
At the time of writing, there are still more than a dozen copies available at WHSmith too.
According to the book's publisher, Penguin Random House, the 410-page memoir sold more than 1.4m copies worldwide on its first day of publication. In comparison, Barack Obama's memoir 'Becoming', also published by Penguin, took a full week to sell the same number of copies when it was released in 2018.
