Jeeves and the Feudal Spirit
by P.G. Wodehouse
Blurb:
When Bertie Wooster goes to stay with his Aunt Dahlia at Brinkley Court and finds himself engaged to the imperious Lady Florence Craye, disaster threatens from all sides. While Florence tries to cultivate his mind, her former fiancé, hefty ex-policeman 'Stilton' Cheesewright, threatens to beat his body to a pulp, and her new admirer, the bleating poet Percy Gorringe, tries to borrow a thousand pounds. To cap it all, Bertie has incurred the disapproval of Jeeves by growing a moustache. Throw in a disappearing pearl necklace, Aunt Dahlia's magazine Milady's Boudoir, her cook Anatole, the Drones Club Darts match and Mr and Mrs L.G. Trotter from Liverpool, and you have all the ingredients for a classic Wodehouse farce.
My Reaction:
We needed another in-between book, so we chose to re-read a Jeeves & Wooster book. I never have anything specific to say about these (because I don't bother to take notes), but I do love them. They're perfect for light reading—the literary equivalent of your favorite cuddly comfort blanket. You can wrap yourself up in them for a while, enjoy some good laughs, and forget your worries for a moment.
