Mairelys Cuevas mairecu03aa — I read this book in 11th grade for school. Now normally, school kills our enjoyment of novels because they force us to read something that we might not like. But I went into this novel with an open mind, and I was blown away. Everything about this novel is great. While the central plot is a bit lacking, the relationships between the main character Gatsby and Tom Buchanan, and the woman they both love, Daisy, is what really sets this work apart from the rest. The setting is Twin Eggs, a nice neighborhood in Long Island, as well as new York City, during the 1920s. Nick Carraway, the narrator and the character we see the story through, has moved to New York from the west to try and make his way as a bond salesmen. It's there that he meets up with Tom Buchanan, a chum from college, as well as Tom's wife, Daisy, who also happens to be Nick's cousin. The whole town is all aflutter over the mysterious Gatsby's parties, which he throws often. When Nick gets invited to one of these parties, me meets the man himself, and they become fast friends. Without giving away too much, what follows is a story of love and lust and alcohol. Each character in this story is more than what they seem. Gatsby in particular has an amazing backstory that makes him even more mysterious. But like many legendary figures, he has a humble beginning, and it is hinted that all the wealth he has collected could possibly have been ill-gotten. And it is also evident that he doesn't care about his fortune. All of the things he has are used to help him try to get back the one thing he has ever cared about, and he will stop at nothing to get it back. The novel does a great job of exposing the hypocrisy and extravagances of the 20s, and critiques them severely. In a way, this novel is semi-autobiographical. F. Scott Fitzgerald's life was wild and chaotic, much like Gatsby's. Anyway, since I haven't read any of his other novels, I can't speak for the prose of the others. But this one has amazing details and characterizations. You can really FEEL the heat of the hottest day oof the summer, during which the climax happens. As stated earlier, the characters are memorable, and even if you forget their names, you'll have a hard time forgetting what they did. Also, if you know anything about the 1920s or Prohibition before going into this, you'll appreciate what happens a lot more. So it might be a good idea to do a quick Google search about the period before you go buy it. Overall, I had a great time with this book. If you haven't read it yet, do so. It's not very long, and a good hardback copy will run you about 5 bucks. I spent about 5 bucks at McDonald's the other day. I can tell you, I'd much rather have bought another copy of this amazing book. This was also my first review, so I hope you guys liked it. This is a classic that earns its name as such. 5 stars!

Alena Zakharets _akharets — This book as absolutely enchanting. It read like a fairy tale for adults, and yet there was very little that delved into the realm of fantasy at all. I loved the fact that the story spanned from 1900 - 2005 and was told from the point of view of so many characters. It was very intriguing to often times know things that the characters in the story were still left wondering about. I couldn't wait to turn the page and find out their reaction when they knew what I did. Every bit of this book from start to finish got an A+ for me.
