An Embarrassing Odour was a free Kindle download, and a fun read, by Andrew Biss.  Like some other reviewers, I saw in what direction the story was headed, and thought that I had correctly predicted the ending pretty early on, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that the story takes a bit of a turn that I didn't expect.In my opinion, the characters were well written, the dialogue was humorous, and Ethel's naivete (which even the thuggish burglar found a bit intriguing) made the story flow smoothly and propelled the reader along nicely.Keeping in mind that this is a *short* story, written by a British author, I would recommend An Embarrassing Odour to people who enjoy a light, quirky read.
