Phef, found it! Soozreader is coming to town and I've promised to give her this VERY old tag book (the tag is almost as old as the book...) - and then I couln't find the cursed book! Wodehouse is indeed a humourist, hiding in that way.
This used to be my Dad's book, but his legacy is gradually moving to Joensuu. Haven't had time - or the required mood - to read this. But off it goes, I'm sure it will be well looked after!

Via Hippolein to Soozreader. Enjoy!

Hi from the delivery service - will continue on Tuesday to the right person ;)

On the way to Soozreader

Thank you very much for this wishlist book! Indeed so many Wodehouse-books now live in Joensuu, but that's a good thing, we really need some good laughs around here:)

Edited 31.8.2022: Ups, I forgot to journal before I made the release note. Wodehouse’s Wooster and Jeeves books are amazing and truly entertaining and so was this one too! I remember watching Wooster and Jeeves on TV when I was younger and I can still hear Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie in my head when I read these (Oh, that casting was spot on!). Reading this was a joy! But as they say if you love a book let it go, so the time has arrived for this book to move onwards and bring joy to others too!

This is the book you chose by its first sentence. Happy reading!

And here it is!
I must confess I have never read anything by this author, but this copy has gone through so many friendly hands that I am looking forward to it.
Thanks, Soozreader!!:)

Now available again as one of my replacements for Russbaum's First Sentences VBB... Time to get moving! :)

Sent today to Brookler's husband, who picked it by its first sentence.
I hope it will be a pleasant surprise! :)

My husband chose this book by it's first line, "While I would not go so far, perhaps, as to describe the heart as actually leaden, I must confess that on the eve of starting to do my bit of time at Deveril Hill I was definitely short on chirpiness."

Not what he was expecting, lol!
