Make sure to read Three Sisters first in this series to be introduced to Emily as Showstoppers will leap right in. Three Sisters and Showstoppers were stories that were fast-paced from the beginning, light-hearted, and complete with quirky British humor.  Smith's mysteries were set-up with precise thought and executed with twists and turns that made them both very entertaining reads. I think that Emily Castles is the newest proverbial nosey eccentric character that British cozy mysteries are so popular for creating.I chose to feature these books because I am a big fan of British mysteries and their subtle humor, clues, and spunky dialogue. Smith's books delivered all this to me; they were the perfect 'snuggle on my end of the couch with a cup of English Breakfast Tea' type of mysteries.Anyone who is a fan of British mysteries will enjoy reading these novellas just in time for the first full-length Emily Castles Mystery to publish. This is one book series worth following as you'll fall in love with Emily's commentary, humor, and energy.  The character of Emily, as well as her supporting cast, will keep you wanting to make them a consistent part of your reading pursuits.
