A review by sparky_lurkdragon
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

dark tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

I can see why it's required reading in much of America, but I also see why my small Oregonian city had us read The Grapes of Wrath instead. This appears to be the ur "rich East Coasters having affairs" novel; it probably resonates more strongly over there.
