If you've finished watching House of Guinness, then this is the book for you

If you've flown through all eight episodes of the addictive House of Guinness, then we have found a book you need to read.

I was introduced to the story and history of the Guinness family through the work of Irish author Emily Hourican.

Her novel The Glorious Guinness Girls is inspired by the life of the Guinness family, but focuses on the Guinness women. The historical fiction novel is a thoroughly fascinating and beautifully written read that will take you back to the lives of the Guinness girls in the 1920s.

Her novel The Glorious Guinness Girls is a must-read for fans of the hit Netflix show. You can buy it here.

The Kindle version is also on sale now, part of Amazon's major Kindle book sale, for just €1.13. You can buy it here.

What is The Glorious Guinness Girls about?

Descendants of the founder of the Guinness beer empire, they were the toast of 1920s high society, darlings of the press, with not a care in the world. But Felicity knows better. Sent to live with them as a child because her mother could no longer care for her, she grew up as the sisters’ companion.

Both an outsider and a part of the family, she witnesses the complex lives upstairs and downstairs, sees the compromises and sacrifices beneath the glamorous surface.

Then, at a party one summer’s evening, something happens that sends shock waves through the entire household.

This is an unforgettable novel about the haves and have-nots, and a story that'll make you wonder if you're truly where you belong.
