Lots of unfinished business. But it seems like Maisie is finally taking steps to find herself and move forward with her life. Interested to see her character development grow.

Disappointing resolution, but neat to see a non-white side of London in the era.
Still enjoy following the main characters and their development within this series. The next book will certainly show some changes in the plot - looking forward to it.
Exactly what I've come to expect from Miss Maisie. Sometimes I wonder why I continue to read this series. Maisie drives me a little nuts at times. She's like a friend who asks you for advice and against your better judgement you give it to her, she nods her head intelligently and tells you what a good point you've made and then proceeds to change not a blasted thing! But a friend is a friend after all and no matter how insane they make you (and in this instance it's a bit one-sided because usually if it's one of the better relationships you make each other insane) you just have to stick around for more... and odds are I will stick around for more.
