"I'm so glad to have finally stumbled across P.G Wodehouse and his Jeeves series. I only wish it hadn't taken me this long. These overlapping short stories were lighthearted, witty and very funny... classic British humor at its best. I will be working my way through more of these stories very soon."
— Kerri (4 out of 5 stars)
“Sheer bliss…Wodehouse’s brilliant mix of sweetness, wit, and innocence make this one of the best audios ever for a family vacation.”
— USA Today (audio review)“Jonathan Cecil impersonates Wooster with aplomb.”
— AudioFile" Wodehouse was a genius at capturing the frolics of the upperclass bright young things. I am by far the most appreciative of his Wooster and Jeeves series. His writing style is easy to read and always entertaining! "
— Celeste, 2/20/2014" Loosely connected set of stories, most of which deal with Bertie and Jeeves assisting Bingo Little with various love and/or betting schemes. Occasional moments of brilliance sprinkled throughout, but lacking the writing and humor found in later J&B stories that made me laugh out loud in restaurants. Mostly makes me want to re-read other Wodehouse books. "
— P, 2/18/2014" As usual, hilarious. Am an ardent fan of Jeeves. Pick up a Jeeves book and u would not want to keep it down till u finish it. "
— Lakshmy, 2/12/2014" This was a classic! I've seen the whole series on dvd and this was the basis for many episodes! Can't wait to read the next one! "
— Jill, 2/6/2014" These stories are more well developed than My Man Jeeves. Bingo is a fun foil for Bertie to get in trouble and Jeeves have to pull the two of them out. Fun romp and enjoyable read. "
— Joanna, 2/5/2014" I like British fiction, perhaps I just don't get British humor. "
— Donna, 1/28/2014" Light & fluffy, as expected. Obviously the style is rather dated but it remains wonderfully evocative of the period it describes. Each short story has a predictable ending - but for easy reading that is part of the charm. Robert Davidson THe Tuzla Run "
— Bob, 1/24/2014" This one doesn't flow quite as well as some of Wodehouse's others, in my opinion, but I still found it quite funny. There were definitely some laugh-out-loud moments. I listened to it in the car on the way to and from work, and found it a rather good way to lessen the pain of rush-hour traffic. ;) "
— Eliz, 1/11/2014" We are listening to this while driving... hilarious! "
— Elisabeth, 1/4/2014" I seem to regularly revisit Widehouse, and always enjoy it, especially when it's in the form of a reading such as this. Jonathan Cecil does a bang-up job of the cockeyed characters. "
— Steven, 1/2/2014" A fun light read, especially if you can hear that english accent in your head. I would give it three and a half stars, but it isn't an option so I rounded up. Jeeves really is inimitable, though I wish I had a friend like him. If you need a break from slogging through some tiresome text or long historical novel, this will perk you up straightway. "
— Amy, 12/22/2013" For light, enjoyable, humorous reading, nothing beats the Jeeves stories. This was the first collection of these loosely connected pieces. "
— Gary, 12/22/2013" Always wondered why PG Wodehouse is so popular when his world is so 'old' - now I know! In future if I'm feeling a bit low, I'll pick up a Jeeves book - it was LOL funny at times. "
— Karen, 12/21/2013" my new favorite fun author. "
— J, 11/24/2013" this didnt do for me, but still enjoyable read "
— Nomad, 11/20/2013" A truly wonderful read! I loved the how Wodehouse ended this series, i was laughing as i closed the book. "
— Mubeshra, 11/5/2013" fun quick read. jeeves and bertie are precious "
— Ruth, 10/23/2013" I think this was even better than the first collection of Jeeves stories! Wodehouse does a spiffing job of tying all the stories together, from cats in the bedroom to Bingo Little's many doomed love affairs. I look forwards to the next one. "
— Lesley, 9/24/2013" I just love Wodehouse. He's so dang witty and yet always with the loveable British flair!! "
— Anna, 9/19/2013" Another exceedingly fine volume in the tales of Bertram Wooster and his sturdy valet Jeeves. I haven't found a bad one yet and I don't expect I will. "
— Jim, 9/19/2013" One of the few books that averages nearly a laugh per page. Almost every line is quotable. "
— Brian, 9/9/2013" This book centers on how Bingo Little falls in and out of love with great regularity until he finally settles. Bertie and Jeeves go along getting Bingo out of scrapes, getting into betting troubles and dealing with Bertie's twin cousins. "
— Patty, 8/22/2013" One of my favorite Wodehouse works! Highly recommended "
— Charlotte, 7/15/2013" This book is so perfectly itself. It never wants to be anything else. Read perfectly by Frederick Davidson and the most hilarious book I've read in a long time. "
— Scarlet, 7/12/2013" Lovely little book. A great distraction when you want something to cheer you up or lighten up after some heavy reading. "
— Tommy, 5/25/2013" Nice to discover Bertie Wooster at such a late age (that is to say, after 30) knowing there's plenty more in store. The scene where Bertie pushes his friend Bingo's latest sweetheart's little brother into the water is priceless! "
— Matthew, 5/15/2013" The people that have been hiding Jeeves and Wooster from my all my life are clearly not my friends. "
— Derrick, 3/6/2013" Kept this by as a sort of sorbet during a stressful couple of weeks, for cleansing the palate between more complicated books. I just read a few chapters at a time. Not my favorite Jeeves book, but still pretty good. "
— Ae, 3/5/2013" A really, really funny book. "
— Scott, 2/8/2013" Love love love love love!!!!!!!! "
— Erica, 1/9/2013" I Dont Get British Humor! "
— Maria, 12/24/2012" Not a bad read, quite funny in places and completely inoffensive. "
— William, 12/12/2012" This was funny stuff. I'll definitely be trying more Wodehouse. "
— Jo, 11/11/2012" Wodehouse had Dickens gift for names: Bingo Little, Gussie Finknottle, Honoria Glossop, Claude and Eustace, etc... "
— Peter, 11/9/2012" The audiobooks with Martin Jarvis are great! "
— Lydia, 11/5/2012" A very pleasant read, more episodic than what I had expected and perhaps a tad repetitive here and there, but certainly a bright & witty little book. I look forward to my next Jeeves novel. "
— Robert, 10/12/2012" I am becoming increasingly convinced that Wodehouse is the greatest thing ever. "
— Jay, 9/17/2012" The literary equivalent of blowing soap bubbles: harmless, charming and temporary. "
— Greg, 8/7/2012" Jeeves is really delightful. Easy reads, short story type set up that makes it easy to read in between kids. The only problem is that after you've read two or three books all the stories start sounding a lot alike. "
— Nancy, 4/28/2012" All Wodehouse books are fabulous, and especially any involving Jeeves. This one wasn't my favourite but still absolutely worth reading! "
— Robin, 4/8/2012" I love Wodehouse's tales of Jeeves and Wooster. Always a good way to keep spirits up, especially in this interminable winter. "
— Mary, 3/30/2012" Light reading, excellent dialogue, Briticisms abound. Hare-brained schemes and wonderment that Jeeves doesn't leave Bertie. The cousins are ridiculous, but endearing. "
— Miller, 11/21/2011" Perfect! Possibly the finest J&W collection going, the Folio Society's editions with wonderful illustrations by Paul Cox are just fantastic... "
— Chris, 10/22/2011" Wodehouse's writing is second to none and I don't know any other comic author who can satirize without one iota of rancour or bitterness. Reading Wodehouse is like visiting an old friend who makes me laugh. "
— Darcy, 9/20/2011" Loved this - my first taste of Jeeves and Wooster, I will definitely read more in the series. "
— Laura, 9/6/2011" Frothy fun! I want to talk like a PG Wodehouse character. "
— Spoffy, 5/21/2011" When I visited Japan last year, I used to wake up really early in the morning, make myself some tea in the hotel room and kick back reading a few pages of this book. The perfect cozy remedy to avoid feeling intimidated by adventures ahead! "
— Danielroffle, 5/20/2011" The performer on the audio version I listened to (Blackstone) earns this an extra star. Some pretty clever language and funny situations scattered among these stories, but, even in 30-60 minute increments, I'd had enough by the end. Frothy, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. "
— Craig, 5/8/2011" The people that have been hiding Jeeves and Wooster from my all my life are clearly not my friends. "
— Derrick, 3/31/2011" a great example of dry British humor. I look forward to reading other Jeeves books "
— Kathy, 3/1/2011" my new favorite fun author. "
— J, 2/22/2011" My first experience with Jeeves and Wooster. Perhaps I wouldn't have enjoyed the print book as much, but the audiobook was positively charming. I could see myself developing a serious addiction to Jeeves and Wooster. "
— Nancy, 2/8/2011" What can I say? Even though the plots are always the same, I always laugh out loud. Wodehouse keeps it fresh because of his clever expressions and style. "
