My friend Jane in Ohio told me about PG Wodehouse and the Wooster/Jeeves books a long time ago. I had forgot to check into them until I read another book that mentioned them. The book The Code of the Woosters was mentioned in a secret society book I read awhile back. I thought I would try it as my first Wodehouse read.
I didn't realize until I added it on Goodreads that it was book 7 in the series. The other reviews said it would be fine to read on it's own and it was. It was a little slow going at first, but about 1/4 in I really started enjoying the characters and the shenanigans they got into. Most of the story revolved around the possible theft of a cow creamer. Later in the story other stolen items come up. It has some satirical humor and crazy detective work. I would really like to learn more about Wooster and Jeeves and plan to read some other books in this series soon.
