About this listen

Spanning from 1980s London and the royal wedding of a century to a present-day reality TV show, A House Full of Windsor explores how one woman’s messy past shapes her family’s future.

Sarah Percy’s career depends on New Yorkers taking her household advice as gospel. “Sarah Says” used to be the most popular segment on the city’s top morning show, but ratings are down and it looks like Sarah might not have a tip for everything, after all—especially when her mother gets involved.

Debbie Windsor, Sarah’s mother, is a shopaholic and compulsive hoarder, a secret Sarah has worked tirelessly to hide her entire life. Debbie was always fascinated by royalty, but when her real-life love story started to parallel Princess Diana’s, she turned to collecting royal souvenirs to fill the void. Leaving her husband’s native England and relocating the family to her hometown in Pennsylvania doesn’t help the situation, and two decades later the house is a royal mess. Debbie’s safety is on the line, but she brushes off any attempts her family makes to help.

When Sarah’s brother gets a job on Stuff, a TV show about compulsive hoarding, he nominates their mother for an episode and promises his famous sister’s participation. Backed into a corner, Sarah and Debbie agree, but everyone has something at stake whether the episode does or doesn’t go off without a hitch. With both family and romantic relationships on the line—including the connection between Sarah and the show’s sexy host, and Debbie’s budding romance with a local shopkeeper—long-buried secrets and resentment must come to the surface for the family to move on.

Great book

I initially won a signed paperback copy of this book. I started reading it & decided that the audiobook edition is the better option for me. I’m so happy I switched! The accents to go with the characters in this book is amazing!
I love how the author approaches a hoarding situation & helps the reader understand hoarding more. I am a recovering hoarder so this book hit home for me!

A Fun Read

The narrator was very good for the most part, but the voice she used for Debbie made me dislike the character even more. I did have to suspend my belief of some things to just enjoy the story for what it was and not dig too deep. If you are a royal lover I definitely suggest you give it a go!

Weirdly satisfying

Who would think a book about hoarding would be so engaging ? This is a tale of reality tv helping out a disfunction family straddling the ‘pond’.
Kreinick’s warehouse of accents is fully employed here- she is a pro at voices and accents.

The amount of research that must have been done to write this very believable story.

I really liked this book. I listened on auditable and felt fully immersed in the story. Looking forward to more stories by this author.
