My oldest son read this and asked me to read it as well!

Started with the kids for a read out loud book

Incredibly good. Haven’t had this hard of a time setting a book down in years. I’m immersed.

For book club. I don’t think I would pick this out on my own.

Reading this before bed, so it's slow going because I get sleepy. But there are few authors as funny & have such charming ways of writing dialogue as Wodehouse. It's some of the most enjoyable reading to be had even if I know all these stories/these are re-reads for me (even if you don't think you'd ever read the Jeeves series, you should look up & watch the TV version: Stephan Fry & Hugh Laurie are PERFECTION).

I’m not entirely convinced yet. The protagonist has a lot of “special powers” which is kind of a disappointment, but maybe it’s a genre thing I’m not used to. I do like that I can tell she has flaws and weaknesses though.
