Reading P.G. Wodehouse’s Fiction

Ever since I first borrowed Bachelors Anonymous from the University of Windsor library, I’ve been thoroughly enjoying P.G. Wodehouse’s literary corpus.

I’ve been keeping track of my progress, with the goal of eventually finishing everything by P.G. Wodehouse. I’ve got a fair way to go.  Here is my tally, with books I’ve completed displayed with a strike-through.  I’m assuming the bibliography I used is complete and accurate. I have excluded posthumous works (for instance, I’ve read A Man Of Means, which was published after his death).
