I loved the first couple of books in the series by Jacqueline Winspear, and now I'll be reading them all in preparation for the release this spring of A LESSON IN SECRETS.
This is more than a reading challenge - it's an ongoing reading event! There will be discussions, contests, prizes - even (hopefully) a visit from Jaqueline Winspear to Book Club Girl on the Air. You can get all the details on Book Club Girl's website.

Wow, that's quite a marathon of Maisie Dobbs! I read the first book this year and loved it (and have the next three), but I don't think I want to rush through all of her books in one year (although I admit to being tempted!). Anyway, good luck with the readalong!
I read the first Maisie Dobbs book for a lark, and while there were some definite things I liked about both the series and the character, I am not sure if I would like to continue on with them like you are doing. I haven't made up my mind yet, so I will be watching your posts with a lot of excitement and seeing if these books might be for me. Good Luck!!
I'm so glad that you're joining us!!
I haven't heard of these before.
My husband loves this series, so I'm glad to hear there is a new one coming out in the Spring.
Enjoy yourself with this event!
Sounds like a good plan. I tried reading one of these books but the constant point of view shifts drove me crazy. Good stories though.
