Such a fun book. Typical Wodehouse tale. Complicated, confusing and utterly convoluted- in a really, really funny kind-of-way. Lovely ladies, dapper gents, a few mischief-makers, and of course, the charmingly clueless Lords of the manors with a battalion of interfering sisters, aunts and cousins. Loved the story, as always. Wodehouse never disappoints.
An early effort that hints at better things to come, after Wodehouse had honed his style and plotting further. This was pleasantly diverting but completely forgettable. In fact, I started to suspect I had read it already and forgotten it (but I'm not sure whether I had, or was just reminded of episodes from other PGW books).
Definitely a funny read. PG Wodehouse is one of the rare authors that make me laugh out loud. It's absurd, and random and good story telling.
