The Mapping of Love and Death

A solid 2.6 rating on the 7th Maisie Dobbs installment.

In my opinion, this is the least enjoyable book in the series to date. I didn't find the mystery very compelling, and I guessed much of the outcome early on. Even the ending, which should've been rather harrowing as it affects one of the series' ongoing characters felt rather flat.

It's been a while since I've read one of these books, but it seems like the author is over explaining some of the day today activities to fill pages. (I can certainly understand add an explanation for customs that we no longer follow, but that didn't seem to be the case here).

Will I continue with the series? Sure, but I probably will stay with the audiobook versions to satisfy my completist self. My mom also love this series until around this point in the story.
