    This is a fantastic period novel [added to my bookshelf]. The author's writing is exquisite, bringing the imagery to life. Prices are incredibly accurate, down to the cent. [Thumbs up] It subverts tropes, there's no military marriage or stepmother, just everyday family life. The female lead attends a vocational school and doesn't go to the countryside. [Already added to my wishlist] The only downside is the low rating due to the limited number of reviews. [Added to my bookshelf] Another great thing about this book is its strong sense of the era. Life was tough, and you needed ration coupons for everything, unlike some period novels that are practically indistinguishable from today. You can read it as a period novel combined with a farming story.
