The
Great Gatsby by F. Scott
Fitzgerald was one of my favorite classics in high school. And with this reread
that hasn’t changed. This short novel only 9 chapters wasn’t popular during
Fitzgerald’s lifetime, and would have slipped away if it hadn’t been for WWII
and the troops loving the book.
My
thoughts about the characters haven’t changed I still feel the same about the
characters as I did in high school. The villain of the story isn’t obvious to
first time readers but on a second read and maybe as an older reader this time
I can tell easily who the villain is.
If
you go into this book thinking it’s a romance does both the book and the reader
a disservice.
I received a copy of this book
from the publisher through netgalley. I was not required to write a positive
review. All opinions expressed are mine alone.
