Hi
Jeeves in
the Offing is my second P. G. Wodehouse novel
and obviously my second Jeeves and Wooster novel
too.
It has exactly 200 pages and I got it from bol.com.

“A Bertie and Jeeves classic, featuring a
cow-creamer, the redheaded Miss Wickham, and the formidable schoolmaster Aubrey
Upjohn. Jeeves is infallible. Jeeves is indispensable. Unfortunately, in How
Right You Are, Jeeves, he is also in absentia. In this wonderful slice of
Woosterian mayhem, Bertie has sent that prince among gentlemen's gentlemen off
on his annual vacation. Soon, drowning dachshunds, broken engagements, and
inextricable complications lead to the only possible conclusion: "We must
put our trust in a higher power. Go and fetch Jeeves!" ”
Very
enjoyable and pure, relaxing fun to read.Light-hearted, fast and charming. Funny,
stupid situations, hilarious nicknames, butchered French, a complete idiot
Wooster and Murphy’s law.
But I
missed Jeeves and because of that I liked this novel less then Stiff Upper Lip.
Still, an
enjoyable read.
Happy
reading!
