One of the best wartime family saga books I've read
I borrowed this book from Swindon Libraries new books display.
This is the first book I've read by Jean Fullerton and I will now be looking to read more of The Ration Book series (this is number 3 in the series).
I have been choosing lots of historical fiction set during or after World War 2 (a period of history I studied for my O' Level History) and this is one of the best I have read.
Jean Fullerton brought the streets of London to life, so that you experience the sights, sounds and smells of the capital in 1941. The Brogan family are facing many challenges and I loved the way the story evolved - the family dynamics, the romances and the heartbreak. The ending suggested another book could follow and I have just seen that A Ration Book Wedding is due to be published in May 2020.
