Any interest in a group read of Cocktail Time in April?

Brian Steed (seamusp) | 21 comments I'm game. My very fine Overlook Press edition is still waiting for me to crack it open, and Uncle Fred makes great springtime reading.

I have the same edition, likewise in need of cracking.

An April start should give people plenty of time to secure a copy Cocktail Time, shouldn't it?

Brian Steed (seamusp) | 21 comments Here's a list of the Woodies I've got on my shelf that are still unread:

--Luck of the Bodkins
--Money in the Bank (the one he wrote while in the German prison camp)
--Hot Water
--Summer Lightening
--Summer Moonshine
--Quick Service
--Full Moon
--Spring Fever

I don't have a problem re-reading any of the others though...it's been years since I read most of them.

Full Moon sounds the best to me. I've already read Luck of the Bodkins, Summer Lightening, and Quick Service. I wouldn't be opposed to tracking down Spring Fever, Hot Water, or Summer Moonshine if it came down to it. One can never have too many Overlook Press Wodehouses...

Brian Steed (seamusp) | 21 comments Love 'em. They've been gradually replacing my old paperback editions.

I vote Full Moon too. I could go for some fresh Blandings.

Ian (ianw) | 10 comments A Blandings classic - good plan.
