Whenever life gets stressful, it is time for Jeeves and Bertie Wooster.  My life is always more mellow when I listen to a bit of Wodehouse's fluff and fun.  It's always great to hear the latest from Bertie's dreaded aunts.  The young ladies who have tried to snare Bertie generally have a low opinion of Bertie's gray cells, but Bertie is smart enough to have Jeeves save his bacon.  But this edition specializes in Bingo, Bertie's sometimes friend.  Bingo has a problem with constantly falling in love.  Of course, he needs Bertie's help with his matters of the heart.  Bertie manages to create a solution that doesn't work until Jeeves steps in with a better solution, even if it means that society looks at Bertie as a loon.  4.5 stars
