by Simon Callow, P.G. Wodehouse
The best Jeeves volume I've read so far. I was giggling almost all the time. I love Bertie. He is so honest, and funny, and naive, and nice. He doesn't have an ounce of malice in his entire being. Since this volume is about Jeeves leaving Bertie because Bertie loves to play banjo, and Jeeves is like...
I listened to the audio version with Simon Templeman as Bertie and Paxton Whitehead as Jeeves, performing with L.A. Theatre Works. Initially, I was missing Hugh Laurie, whose Bertie I absolutely love, but honestly Templeman's Bertie was spot on. (It's hard not to talk like that after listening to t...
Thank You, Jeeves (Jeeves #5) by P.G. Wodehouse My rating: 5 of 5 stars This story was hilarious! What can I say, brilliant as always.
Jeeves and Wooster break up after Jeeves lays down an ultimatum and Bertie chooses his banjolele over his manservant. Hilarity ensues.The 2011-2012 re-read...After Jeeves and Wooster have a spat over a banjolele, Jeeves leaves Wooster for Lord Chuffnel, who is enamored with Bertie's ex-fiancee, Pau...
What a fun book! Jeeves is the epitome of the ideal British valet. Not only is he always ready with whatever item Bertie Wooster desires, he can quote Shakespeare, and in this story, he successfully gets Bertie out of some difficult romantic snafus. Perfect British comedy.
It is a true testament to how freaking hilarious P.G. Wodehouse is that I kind of want to read this book again despite its use of the 'n' word and Bertie's blackening his face to create the central mistaken-identity gags. I doubt this book will ever be on Oprah's Book Club list, and while I would u...
More tales of woe for Bertie Wooster, but this time he's on his own with no Jeeves to get him out of the soup. Perhaps that's why I felt this volume - though probably as good as the rest - didn't quite resonate the way others have. Wooster without Jeeves is like Laurel without Hardy, Abbot sans Cost...
PG Wodehouse has been on my list of authors to read for ages, and my only complaint is that I waited so long to give him a try. Before picking up Thank You, Jeeves, I had read several of the short stories that introduced the world to the indomitable literary pairing of Bertram Wooster and his faithf...
