4 stars! I think that this book does a very good job embodying the mentality of its time period, and creating a meaningful social commentary! While the ideas it presents and responds to are not quite as prevalent today, they still exist. If anything, it’s an excellent glimpse into the mindsets of the era! I really enjoyed the description and dialogue- they worked together well to create vivid atmosphere and character, as well as some humor!

A damnation of the American Dream through the eyes of an unreliable, hard to pin down narrator. Nick is just as much of a mystery as Gatsby, changing his mind about people, judging yet connecting himself to some awful people, including the racist and abusive Tom.

Boy, what a journey! I never read this book even though I’ve heard a lot about it. I never thought the story would end like this and I’m quite shocked. Not sure if I loved this book, but it was really great to read. 
Don’t hesitate to read it y’all!
