Why this must be read:

Bertie's taken note that the sun is brighter and the roses are sweeter when Jeeves is around. This requires deep thought, and a cautious plan of action. Jeeves, after all, can't really be asked for his advice on how best to woo Jeeves. Amid Bertie's efforts to make his declaration and still be a preux chevalier, he has to deal with Tuppy and Angela's squabbling, a long-eared owl resembling Aunt Agatha, Jeeves's pajamas, a sprained ankle, a housefire, and an appallingly attractive French tennis coach.

The style is deliciously meandering and anecdotal, and Bertie is bright, doofy and magnificently goodhearted. If you want to get lost for a few hours, there are few better fics.
