I've excluded the short stories, and the novel "Ring for Jeeves" (1953) as it doesn't contain Bertie Wooster.
Best realisation so far is the surprising identity of one of the "couples" whom Jeeves and Wooster are assisting. It is mandatory in each J&W novel that J and or W will be called on to help a particular couple to get together, despite the hardships of the world presenting untold obstacles. Thus I've listed Couple(s): as a chief property of each novel. The surprising couple is "Chichester Clam & Lord Worplesdon" who are, I kid you not, hoping to unite Clam's Clam Line with Worplesdon's Pink Funnel line.
