I'm excited to announce that for the July book club we'll be discussing stories from The Most of P.G. Wodehouse in Prospect Park on Sunday, July 27th! This will be, by far, the tweediest book club meeting we'll ever have. I'll bring the scones!
Although Wodehouse is a breeze to read, he's also extremely prolific, and as such I picked the edition that you should be able to find no matter how many (or few) Wodehouse books there are at your favorite bookstore.
Also, as this is kind of a big book, in order to make sure that everyone enjoys this month's choice and it never feels like a chore I've included a guide for what people should read and what they can skip over in this collection:
DEFINITELY, ABSOLUTELY READ:
All Drones Club stories
All Jeeves Stories
The Lord Emsworth story
DEFINITELY, IF THERE'S TIME:
Mulliner Stories
IF YOU'RE KILLING TIME (say, on a bus to Atlantic City)
Stanley Featherstone Ukeridge stories
NO NEED:
Golf Stories
Quick Service
More details (such as where we'll meet at the park, back-up plans if it's supposed to rain, etc.) to come!

This will be so much fun!!! Yay for Wodehouse. He'll be kind of a palate cleanser after the last few books. Unless he has a story about piercings and sextapes from his dark period that i don't know about...
I am exceedingly looking forward to the imminent book club gathering. This man's fiction has been a lifesaver on the weekend ride out to Ikea and back again. Yay for Wodehouse from me as well...
