Definitely a classic. I loved this book, and I enjoyed the diction in this book, but the long unnecessary imagery and describing was tedious. I will admit it is an overrated book, and the characters seemed shallow, naive, and completely unrelatable. It was hard to understand why they were so madly in love, making it harder to sympathize with Jay.

this is one of my favorite books ever! i’m just obsessed with the way fitzgerald writes. i especially loved the ending of the book, it’s completely hypnotizing! with all the drama it basically turns into a train wreck that’s impossible to look away from!

I keep reading this for class. It’s good, but I’m very tired of it.

 I have never read a book quite like this one, and I hope that I will read another book that will impact me as much as this one did. Such a beautiful and poetic story. The sad ending was absolutely necessary and Fitzgerald completed the character stories the way that they all should have been completed. I watched the movie the day after finishing this book (it was also absolutely breathtakingly beautiful) and the week after I finished this book I couldn’t even pick up another book because of how much this book was on my mind. It is a short read, but a truly remarkable one and I would recommend this to anyone who likes historical fiction or really just anyone that wants to enjoy a great poetic beautiful story.

It was just a roller coaster/. The ending…

really good

Even if Gatsby is rich, he still loves Daisy ideally. This bottom line is no longer comparable to Tom.

Great as always. Dive on in

Brilliant. Just brilliant.

It’s wonderful and a very quick read. Fitzgerald definitely has a way with words and I feel like I was reminded of so many beautiful words to use in every day vocabulary
