Lighthearted fun read. I love the journey to Pamplona with descriptions of the country and the bull fights. I felt like I was traveling along with Jake. It was entertaining and I enjoyed it overall, but I hate to say I'm not sure what the point of the book is.

I actually liked this much more than I expected to! I read it on a plane, which I think is a good place to read it, because it's pretty quick-moving and also related to travel. I found the writing evocative, although it also deals quite a bit in problematic attitudes and stereotypes, which took my enjoyment of it down.

id like to say that because of this book I fell in love with Hemingway’s writing. Now although the story isn’t anything crazy, his prose and storytelling are really something else. such an enjoyable book and quite an easy read, both in the literal sense and just overall feeling it evokes. characters are extremely fleshed out and you’re able to have very strong emotions and feelings. almost as if you were there, traveling with the gang, and gaining insight to an inquiring narrator. i’m very excited to read Hemingway’s other works
I have always avoided reading the likes of Hemingway. However, I had to read it for the sake of appeasing my professor's ego. The story plot is sexist, anti-semtic, homophobic and perpetuates the stereotypes of women in general. Again he is the white bro of American Literature. What is this bullshit bruh?
