I have made it a mission to read PG W's entire works. Currently on Jeeves and Wooster and I don't think I have laughed out loud like that ever while watching a movie or reading a book. The scrapes that Bertie Wooster gets in are absolutely hilarious, love the scenes with his crazy aunties and friends and his convos with Jeeves.
One thing that struck me about his works is that he has an uncanny understanding of human nature, society and temperament which gets reflected Jeeves' dialogues. Same with Saki and O Henry works. The irony and dry wit employed by them to call out the hypocrisy and genteel mannerisms of the society never fails to impress me.

Outside of Jeeves and Wooster, what other Wodehouse books are notable? I’d be interested in reading them.
Honestly I have tried reading other Wodehouse, but although they are good, Jeeves and Wooster is just so much better than everything else that I can’t recommend the others.
