The Code of The Woosters (Jeeves #7)
by
P.G. Wodehouse

1938
Humour
Richard Alex Jenkins
There is everything to like about this book: fun-loving characters with pliable and sometimes irritating amiableness and agreeability between each other, the simplistic good guy versus bad guy syndrome, the crazy self-inflicted twists in the plot and, most of all, the good-natured vibe all the way through.
And the need to steal the silver creamer!
Some of the character descriptions are brilliant. P.G. Wodehouse should be congratulated for keeping things fun and light and never feeling sorry for himself.
Funny but also a bit daft, Woosters can be a bit airheaded and simplistic for people with dry humour and remotely depressive personalities, but there is nothing to dislike about this book.
I don't absolutely love Woosters but still recommend it for all the right reasons. It's all a bit silly and strange, but impossibly uplifting.
