3.5 | A solid one all in all.
emotional reflective tense medium-paced

It's been about 10 years since I last read this, and I think I enjoyed it even more this time. Though none of the characters are likeable, the fine, subtle tension and exquisite language made it a wonderful read. I won't be waiting 10 years before I read it again.

Read in high school and re-read in college. Much better than expected. Fitzgerald is a talented writer and could go places. Hopefully his other books aren’t boring. Good plane or beach read. Very assessable. We’ll done, Francis.

i would probably benefit from a second read, since the first was in high school. its not bad, i just didnt enjoy it that much
