Book: Code of the Woosters

 Book: Code of the Woosters

Author: P Wodehouse

Pages: 263


This is my 23rd read for the year

This is the story of Bertie Wooster.  Bertie's man, Jeeves, is trying to get him to go on vacation.  But instead, Bertie's aunt talks him into going to a local antique shop to try and drive down a price of a cow coffee creamer that her husband really wants.  However - another person - Sir Watkyn Bassett got the creamer first.  Bertie's aunt sends him to steal it back.  This sets in motion an encouter with several other people, a missing notebook, an engagement, and getting that coffee creamer after all.  All while trying to uphold the "Code of the Woosters" to never let a pal down.

This was a silly book.  I decided to listen to it when I found a recording of it as a stage play.  It made this a fun story to get through.  It is a comedy of errors in this short novella.
