A Ration Book Victory

Loved it! Sadly the last in the Ration Book series, but Jean Fullerton saved the best for last. A wonderful read, finishing the story of the Ration Books between England 1940’s and Ireland 1800’s telling the love story of Father Mahon (Patrick) and Quennie Brogan (Philomena), childhood sweethearts. The book is filled with love, heartbreak and even a mention of the Kray twins! I’ve loved this series and I’m sad that the story has come to an end. Wonderful series and a must read. I wish I could give it 10 stars.

From A Ration Book Dream to this book A Ration Book Victory I have lived along side the Brogan Family and their fight to survive the war.I have to say that out of all the Brogans Queenie is my favourite as she is such a strong lady but she won't have her family hurt.Through the series we have gone through so many emotions as the Brogans live their lives as they always do but with determination to all be together again when war ends,I have so loved this book even though it had me spitting feathers or crying and I will miss the Brogans but i can re-read them all.Thank you Jean Fullerton for a terrific journey with Queenie and the family.5*

I Was so lookng forward to reading this latest book in the Ration book series by Jean Fullerton. All I can say is this does not disappoint. Follow the Brogan family on there latest family chaos through to the end of the war. The characters as always come to life on the page and leave you wanting the best for them.
Excellent as always.
Thanks to#NetGalley for the advance copy in return for an honest review.

A bangin read, grab the hankies,
The Brogan Family in the final days of WW2 February 1945 Book six sadly the end of this wonderful series what a journey it's been.
Mafeking Terrace, London. Queenie Philomena Brogan loves her brood that are all still growing giving her sweet balm of old age. The war with Hitler and Germany is ending,
she has lived here with her son Jeremiah and Ida for thirteen years sailing over from Kinsale Ireland as a widow.
This book is a cracking ending and Queenie Philomena Dooley takes us back to 1880 as a fifteen years old as we learn the true story and its not one to be missed.
I do phrase the author for all her hard work for creation this wonderful series that we grow to love the Brogan family as our friends and neighbours. It brought so much comfort to me reading all the characters own stories and the changes that will happen in the coming months for them.
this book made me laugh and cry, an incredible heart-warming read right through to the end. And its a final goodbye to the series but the books will live on and give enjoyment to read again and again. I will miss the Brogan's and look forward to hopefully a new series to come from this author. Loved it all.

What a wonderful finish to a fantastic series! I have loved being with the Brogan family from the very beginning. The highs, the lows, the love affairs and the disasters, all were intriguing and thoroughly enjoyable. All of us know or knew families like this at one time or another which makes it so real. Indeed, my own Great Grandmother was a bit of a 'Queenie'.
All the family are here again but make no mistake, this is Queenie's and Father Mahon's story from start to finish. There are flash back chapters to Kinsale, in Ireland, in the eighteen hundreds which tell their story from the beginning and it works really well.
A thread of sadness runs through this book and at times I outright cried. Queenie is a great character and I loved discovering what the bond between herself and Patrick was.
I'm only sorry I won't get to spend time with the Brogans anymore but I can't wait to see what this author serves us up next!

Loved catching up with all the characters from this series and reading about how Queenie and the father were childhood sweethearts, as usual a well written and descriptive storyline which I couldn't put down, can't wait to read more

Another great instalment of the ration book series. Loving these novellas and hoping for further instalments.
Fantastic read
