A review by michellehenriereads
Elegie for Eddie by Jacqueline Winspear

3.0

Winspear has a unique way of capturing Europe during the bleak times surrounding the Great Wars. I find that I am fascinated by her stories and pulled in, and yet I wouldn't say the novels are uplifting or cheerful, but rather they are grey.

Elegy For Eddie was not my favorite in the Maisie Dobbs series, yet I was still enthralled while reading to better understand how all the threads would be woven together. Maisie's character is quite complex as she tries to sort out her feelings and learn how to work with others. I was hoping that she had put aside all her feelings of inadequacy and would be able to move forward with ease.I am very disappointed that Maisie is having second thoughts...

The previous books in the series are 1. Maisie Dobbs 2. Birds of a Feather 3. Pardonable Lies 4. Messenger of Truth 5. An Incomplete Revenge 6. Among the Mad 7. The Mapping of Love and Death 8. A Lesson in Secrets
