About this title: This is a Jeeves and Wooster novel. "Thank You, Jeeves" is the first novel to feature the incomparable valet Jeeves and his hapless charge Bertie Wooster - and you've hardly started to turn the pages when he resigns over Bertie's dedicated but somewhat untuneful playing of the banjo.

"There should be more books like this in the world. Wodehouse isn't trying to write the Next Great Novel. He doesn't pontificate about the human condition. He writes simply to entertain. And he does it intelligently and with beautiful writing. Bertie's voice is so clear and strong. He really is the lovable idiot. I laughed out loud often. This is a good book to read when you need a book that doesn't make you think too hard, but doesn't insult your delicate literary tastes."
"Not the most politically correct of the Jeeves books. Love Wodehouse's, or at least Bertie's, apparent attitude toward children- boys are invariably little monsters. Still, less than stellar Wodehouse is head and shoulders above most of what passes for fiction nowadays. Jonathan Cecil's reading on the audio was great- especially good on the American accents."
"PG Wodehouse is, in my opinion, a staggeringly brilliant wordsmith, the likes of whom has never again been seen in the English language.
When I am not forced to pretend to be a productive member of society, I am fantasizing that I live in this novel. (Or any of the Jeeves short stories which, on the whole, I'll admit I slightly prefer. But it's like comparing diamonds to rubies: why choose when you can have both?)"
"Bertie has taken up the banjoele which causes him to be kicked out of his apartment and causes Jeeves to leave him. Jeeves goes to work for one of Bertie's friends and Bertie decides to reant a cottage at a summer community where a small group of minstrels is stopping. Bertie hopes for music tips as well as someone to play with. One thing leads to another and Bertie soon finds himself engaged to a woman he doesn't want to marry, chased by his new butler and with his cottage on fire with him in it. It takes Jeeves to set things right."
