I just finished the first one, am debating whether to continue.

3. Did You Like the Book?
If, yes, definitely continue. I met the author a couple of years ago, after having read one book by chance. Listening to her speak gave me a new interest in WWI. I find her books to be interestng mysteries for those times. And the more I read, the more I admire Maisie. I do think the author took some liberties--Maisie is definitely a woman ahead of her times! :)

4. Yes, I enjoyed them
If you didn't like the first book, you shouldn't continue, but if you did, then you should. Does that make sense?

5. Yes
I like mysteries set between the wars
I just read the latest "The Mapping of Love and Death" and found it good
