Book Rating

My Man Jeeves is the first book I’ve read by P. G. Wodehouse, and I very much enjoyed it. They were very amusing stories, and there were lots of laugh out loud moments. They had a cartoonish quality to them, and it was as if the characters came from another world entirely - perhaps that’s just what it was like for the aristocracy at this time 🤷🏼‍♀️
I had avoided Wodehouse, thinking that he didn’t write ‘my kind of books’. How wrong I was!

Many thanks to The Pigeonhole for giving me the chance to read these short stories.

I was truly excited when this book was released from Obverse Press. It was the "mate" to the previous release, THE BOOK OF THE ENEMY. Unfortunately, the excitement soon dissolved, as the stories inside were just not that interesting, hence the reason it took so long for me to finish it! I was looking forward to the upcoming Faction Paradox release HYPONORMALISATION: A FACTION HOLLYWOOD PRODUCTION, but I am starting to waver. I may still get it, though, as Faction Paradox seems to fare better as individual novels, rather than a mixed bag of short stories.
