2.5 on second time read up from 2 originally.

So this is a re read, I never often re read books but I don’t remember much from the last time I read this other than I found it a real slog!

I can’t say much different either, because it didn’t hook me in and I found it a slog. So much so I questioned, what do others get from the book?

I think the reason it has half a star more from me, is I guess I understood the characters more. I felt like I could actually tell you more about the book, I feel like I personally brushed over the audiobook! But also I felt like I was able to piece the whole concept together better.

I think overall I have always found classics books a slog and a challenge to follow on, alongside the language. I think that makes it a lot harder for me personally and just didn’t feel gripped by it.

the thing is that it is that good. unsure where the GATSBY team got lesbian Catherine from, but I’d love to know. literally we beat on. literally boats against the current born back ceaselessly into the past. nick carraway i love you!!
