An Incomplete Revenge (2008)

I know I've said this about the other Maisie Dobbs books but this really is my favorite so far. The mystery was very complex and interesting. We got to know more about Maisie family history. Maisie was able to release some of the pain of her past and embrace her future. And Pris was back.I always...

Birds of a Feather (2015)

When I was recently invited to join a small book club under the auspices of something of a celebrity librarian where I live--she organizes successful events and authors readings, many of which I have attended over the years--I couldn't resist accepting. What kind of books might this small and int...

Messenger of Truth (2006)

For months now I've been reading other bloggers' reviews of Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs mysteries. Everyone likes them. So, I looked in the box of books given to me a while ago and found Messenger of Truth. This isn't the first in the series, but I don't usually have the opportunity to rea...

Maisie Dobbs (2004)

Well. This was a waste of time. I don't think there was an aspect of this book I did not hate. Starting from the holier-than-thou main character, to the non-existent mystery, to the amazing (not) resolution of the non-mystery, to the abrupt hundred pages worth of tedious flashback in the middle o...

Leaving Everything Most Loved LP: A Maisie Dobbs Novel (2013)

Is this series really ending? Say it's not so. I was looking forward to Maisie being somehow involved in World War II, the beginning of which is overshadowed in the 10th mystery in this wonderful series.Winspear takes her usual thoughtful, methodical, slow approach to Maisie Dobbs' crime solving ...

It can become overbearing, intimidating, even humiliating – and no one likes to think someone else is pulling the strings….”Elegy For Eddie is the ninth book in the Maisie Dobbs series by British-born American author, Jacqueline Winspear.

A Lesson in Secrets (2011)

The series is moving on, and there have been several important changes in Maisie's life. Fittingly, this volume leaves the War behind, and is moving into the 1930s. The rise of early fascist movements is important in this book, which points ominously to developments to come. This book has her ...

The Mapping of Love and Death (2010)

I really enjoyed this installment in the story. The story starts with a cartographer in CA right before WWI breaks out. He has purchased a large chunk of land that he feels has oil on it but he also loves the area. Fast forward to roughly 10 years later and his body is found in a battlefield b...
