Has anyone read Margaret Maron's Deborah Knott series?

[MaineDem]

Deborah's a judge and part-time sleuth in North Carolina.

I've been reading many British detective stories lately and I'm looking for other good series.

Does anyone recommend this series?

Thanks.

1. Yes, I liked it.

Mostly light, pleasant, romantic read.
I think I read the whole series. I read a lot, so if I read a full series that is a good sign.

It has enough twist to keep me interested.

2. I liked them

Read them in order if you can, Uncommon Clay was my favorite

3. Excellent! Thank you.

I have the first one on my wish list.

4. I think I've only read one book out of that series...

I liked it and intend to read more at some point.

5. Yes, I've read them all and liked them a lot.

My favorite was "Up Jumps The Devil." Read them in order, if possible. The settings of most of the books are within a few miles of where I grew up, so that was part of why I liked them, but she has wide appeal judging from the awards she's won for her novels.

6. Again, thanks.

I love the recommendations from you all.

7. She just won an Agatha Award
