I’m waiting for it 
That green light 
I want it

After reading The Scarlet Letter in high school (and hating every symbol filled minute of it!), The Great Gatsby was a breath of fresh air. It made me (and many of my fellow classmates) really appreciate classic literature in a way that other books we had been forced to read couldn't. I am older now, and sometimes wiser (though not always) and am slowly going back and re-reading all those classics. The Great Gatsby didn't disappoint the second time around either! Though I disliked many of the characters a lot more now than I remember disliking them in high school...

I stopped counting how many times I've read this book already. Since it's summer at the moment, I had to read it again - and I can totally recommend reading it when it's boiling hot outside, it adds to the vibe.
What else can I say... Everytime I read this book, I discover something new, new thoughts come up in my head. I still can't explain how many different facets this book has, how beautiful and how deeply sad it is. This book started my love for Fitzgeralds work and he is one hell of a writer and story teller. Simply brilliant.
