Summary: This book is an American Classic about achieving the American Dream in the roaring 20s (money, a fine job, and a young lady).
Yes, it is a classic. However, don't let the label scare you away from reading them!!
I enjoyed the writing style in the book and the length was just right! It had a humorous side to it too.
I got this Lithograph of the book at the Library of Congress in DC and had to share a photo of it!
Book Talk is Below. Do not read it if you haven't read the book!!
This is your last chance to turn back!!!!!!!!!
Book Talk
I read this book in school with no spoilers whatsoever and I had not seen the movie until after reading. I was so glad I did because if I would have found out that Gatsby died in the end I would have lost interest early on. I hated it that he died because Tom hinted that Gatsby killed Myrtle. It was truly a tragedy!!
My favorite character was the guy in the library!! I thought he was super funny because he was surprised the books were real!
Movie Time
The movie was pretty similar to the book which I appreciated. I also like how they updated it in a modern but still accurate way. The only thing I didn't care for was the part that they added about him being at the doctor or in the hospital. I didn't think it was necessary.
