The inimitable Jeeves
by P G Wodehouse
Review of books read recently:
1) Ring for Jeeves: A novel that has Jeeves but no Bertram Wooster. Set in a dilapidated castle with new characters but the usual romantic entanglements!
2) Jeeves in the offing: A novel that has less of Jeeves and more of Wooster but then Jeeves is the one who scores more points, as usual, in Brinkley Court. Jovial references to Bertie’s prep school days as one of the principle characters is Bertie’s prep school principal!

Stiff Upper Lip, Jeeves
by P G Wodehouse
Ring for Jeeves
by P G Wodehouse
Reviews of books read recently:
1) Full Moon: A Blandings Castle story. Tipton seeing Bill's gorilla-like face every now and then, and thinking it to be an apparition brought about by too much drink is the best part in the novel.
2) Heavy Weather: One of the best books ever. Extremely hilarious. Rather prolongated but thoroughly enjoyable. Sequel to Summer Lightning (aka Fish Preferred). A Blandings Castle story.
3) Stiff Upper Lip, Jeeves: Sequel to The Code of the Woosters. Runs on similar lines and humorous, as always. A Totleigh Towers story.
