A Ration Book Daughter is focused around Cathy Brogan, who if you have read the previous books, will know has an unhappy marriage and a horrible mother-in-law. When Cathy's husband Stanley is declared missing in action, Cathy begins counting down the days until she can be declared a widow and be free of her violent husband. Cathy dreams of a big family, like the one she herself grew up in and has given up on this dream, but then she meets Sergeant McIntosh and well can she find the love she deserves?
Having previously read A Ration Book Wedding I was very excited to read A Ration Book Daughter and was certainly not disappointed. I was already invested in the characters, and was excited to continue my journey with them. I love the authors style and she has really made me grow on historical fiction as a genre.
Themes touched on in the book include war, racism, abuse, relationships and love.
Overall, a great read. I must go back and read the first few books of the series.
