Reseñas

Delightful Wodehouse Wit!


(5 stars)

Well-crafted and, at times, laugh-out-loud British humor abounds in this comic novel about the culture and manners of the upper classes. Hilarious miscommunications give rise to clever plot twists in this enjoyable and sweet romance. The book is very well read by 'Madame Tuft'. I thoroughly enjoyed her delivery, and her charming use of accents. Nicely done!

Sweet story

Listened to this again, and loved it again. :-) Original review - November 24, 2009 This is such a sweet story. A nice bit of misunderstanding leads to a strange sort of love triangle and all sorts of misadventures for two people, one US born and one of the British aristocracy. Of course, with Wodehouse, true love always triumphs, but getting there is a blast. Readers are excellent, nice job with voices and accents.

actually LOLed

it's fantastic - whimsical, hilarious and beautifully read. but don't listen to it in the grocery store because everyone will wonder why you can't stop smiling...

One of the best romances I've read in a long time.

Excellent Wodehouse Comedy


(5 stars)

This book was an absolute riot. It has a great cast of characters, written to be both true to life and comical. When you add to that an excellent reading by Yazpistachio and Madame Tusk, the characters (and the humor) come to life - from the dippy Reggie Bing to the snobbish Lady Caroline. Underlying it all is a romance hampered (or is it helped?) by a case of mistaken identity.

I truly enjoyed this book and I was so impressed with the reader. She was wonderful. I'm usually infatuated but one of the main characters when listening to the books, but I am so impressed 😁 by the way she spoke as well as portrayed each one in the story that I have fallen for her. LOL 😂 She made this book 📚 a wonderful 👍😊 experience. thank you, David
