This book pulled me in right from the start. The cover is gorgeous and it is an understatement to say that I am absolutely obsessed with anything Gatsby. This is essentially a retelling of The Great Gatsby told from the perspective of Jordan Baker. The author decided that in this story Jordan would be Asian & Queer. I really enjoyed seeing things from Jordan's perspective and loved the imaginative retelling that this author put together.
