Death's Half Acre Audiobook

" Another brilliant book by the author. Loved it. Can't wait to read the next. And Kezzie Knot is so amusing, I really love that about the books, how real the characters are. "

" Pretty good story. It's not one of her better ones. It was way too political for my tastes...must have been an election year where she wrote it. I agree with another review that it ended a bit abruptly. Still and all, a good read. "

" I liked most of the plot, but got bored with the writer's personal politics. Won't get any more of her books. "

" As I'm not reading the Deborah Knott series in order, I've lost track of which number this book is. Once again, however, Judge Knott is drawn into the investigation of murder, this time by self interest. The gambit at the end of the first book has come back to haunt her. Perhaps this is intentional as the side plot is a flawed minister. Yet it's irritating as a plot device. "

" Another very enjoyable book in this series. "

" The latests for Judge Deborah Knott. Not the greatest, but i enjoyed it. "

" One of my favorite mystery writers "

" Routine mystery. I do find the lead character's (a Judge) disregard for the rule of law (when convenient) rather jarring. However it is a light summer read. "

" Judge Knott is always a good read - focused on farms selling out to big developers and the repercussions. Her large family is filled with very different characters and situations. Lots of info about living in NC. "

" Don't like books laced with a slanted political agenda. Didn't finish. will not read more of this author. "

" I liked this better than the last book in the series. "

" Fluff only. But I like to read her. Love her descriptions of North Carolina "

" I wish I could give half stars. This is better than the average 3 but not quite a 4. "

" I was pleasantly surprised by how good and entertaining this book Is. "

" I found it not as good or as much fun to read as earlier Maron books. Still, for a beach/airplane read, not bad. I recommend this series overall. Try the first book- the Bootlegger's Daughter. "

" Enjoyable, fast-paced read. Shelby Stephenson's lyrical poems are included. Loved the vibrant North Carolina setting and family situations. Series has grown so much from BOOTLEGGER'S DAUGHTER. "

" A sexy county commissioner is found dead, did she commit suicide or was she murdered. Does it have something to do with the rampant development in the county. A good read. "

" I love this author. I feel like the family in this book are old friends. "

" I'm afraid I couldn't read the book because it's written in present tense. I'm a bad girl, I know, but I just can't abide present tense. It makes my head hurt. Sorry. Bad Amy. "

" Another brilliant book by the author. Loved it. Can't wait to read the next. And Kezzie Knot is so amusing, I really love that about the books, how real the characters are. "

" This was well done as are all her books and a fabulous read! "

" Good book, I enjoy this entire series. "

" Nice addition to the Deborah Knott series; lots of family color, whice is always nice. "

" A lovely little mystery set in housing boom North Carolina. Downsides: classism, racial/ethnic discomforts, and yet another preacher as a foil. But county politics, personal intrigues, and southern gothic in the contemporary age is a professional yarn and good read. "

" Different, I never really figured out the good and bad guys. "

" Don't like books laced with a slanted political agenda. Didn't finish. will not read more of this author. "

" I just love the Deborah Knott mystery series. Not so much for the mysteries or plot, but because there is such great character development. "

" I enjoy the Southern settings of this series. The large family gatherings and contemporary story lines make them an easy read. "
