A review by buildingtaste
Thank You, Jeeves by P.G. Wodehouse

fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

I picked this up in a little free library--one of the pocketbook editions from the 70s. If you want to introduce someone to Wodehouse's breezy brand of battiness, don't pick this one. Not only are Jeeves and Wooster separated for much of the book, but

Bertie spends the last third or so in blackface.
