One of the best indications that a book is good is that it gets better each time you read it. This book is good. It’s more than good. It’s almost perfect.

A masterpiece of American Literature. I find the ending to be tragic and sad however. I would liked to have seen Daisy end up with Gatsby and Tom with Myrtle. Perhaps even Nick and Jordan together. That’s just my opinion though.

Wow i love this book

I really don’t like the book cuz it’s to confusing and not my type of books I don’t read but this book is with the ones I wouldn’t read again

I loved this story. I loved the time that it takes place and everything. I also believe it was written beautifully🦋✨ I definitely will be reading again.

so popular for many reasons. everything from the storytelling, to the characters, to the symbolism is perfect.

I read this for school! It’s such a long book but like everyone knows that you have to read it.

👏

Second time reading the classic since high school. While symbols and motifs resonated the same, I enjoyed Nick’s point of view more as an adult. I appreciate the way Nick’s saw things was a bit unreliable, and also relatable. He’s disgusted by those around him, settled for a lifestyle that he knows he didn’t want, and notices “everything”. I enjoyed the book the second time around, and forgot how complicated the author’s word choice was. I had to reread a few sentences… I’m surprised I walked away with comprehension in high school…

I'll always love the classics
