The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

3.0

This is my second time reading The Great Gatsby. I read it when I was in high school and I wasn't too impressed. I thought I should give it another chance as I figured maybe my literary taste has evolved and changed and maybe I would be able to appreciate The Great Gatsby more. The verdict? It was only okay. Don't get me wrong... I enjoyed it and there were good parts to it... but I also feel like I miss the entire worship I am supposed to have for this book as a person who loves literature. I liked the characters, the setting, the time frame, and pretty much most of the things about it. Liked it... just didn't love it.

I AM looking forward to the film rendition of it coming out this year. :) Now that I have re-read the book I feel prepared to judge the movie accordingly! ;)
