Summer Lightning by P.G. Wodehouse
4.0
Pure comic genius; a tale of epic complexity involving more prize pigs being stolen, threats to aristocratic reputations, impostors, dismissed and possibly insane secretaries, 'brilliant' plots, butlers in distress, and lovers in situations approaching the maximum of thickness than is fair to throw at a reader who tends to read in public, and has a family history of heart problems.
This was the first book to really focus on Blandings Castle and its inhabitants and not just use it as a setting as Something Fresh and Leave it to Psmith did. As I remember, the sequel to Summer Lightning, Heavy Weather, is somehow even better. We'll see.
