I finished
Uncle Fred in the Springtime which turned out to be one of my absolute favorites by P.G. Wodehouse. Number 64 on my quest to read all of him, more or less in order.
I’ve started Frances Donaldson’s biography of Wodehouse, in which she makes the puzzling and shocking claim that women don’t like Wodehouse! One of my absolute favorite authors. She says that she herself didn’t learn to like him until she hit her 70s.

Loved
The Bookshop, which was a NLBC selection about a year ago. As for Updike, however, I only liked the Maples stories and the first two Rabbit books. Oh, and his long book of essays, I must admit. But it was a happy day for me when I decided I’d never read anything else by him again.
