Readers' Most Anticipated Books for Fall 2025
Dana
Dana asked Jacqueline Winspear:

Hi Ms. Jacqueline Winspear, In the last book of the Maise Dobbs series, Leaving Everything Most Loved do you think the various partners for separated "twin loves" is what truly happens to most people? Did you create the portion about some souls having different destinations or is this based on some specific twin myth? If so which version?

Jacqueline Winspear I don't have any belief either way, regarding twin loves. I didn't create the story based upon any given myth in this regard.

Lois Church asked Jacqueline Winspear:

I love the Maisie Dobbs books: I have read all and keep them to reread. One thing I wonder, though: what value do long descriptions of Maisie's (etc.) outfits add? Sometimes these bog down the story's progress. Significant sensory details are indeed important to atmosphere--they help bring a story alive--but I wonder if there is a way to intersperse sartorial specifics instead of presenting them in "chunks."
