I recognize that this is satire but it just really made me hate rich people and it was hard to focus on anything else.

That was such an exhausting read... I couldn't even read it in the orthodox manner anymore. I had literally given up with this book and now wonder if that was the purpose, if you were meant to feel as frustrated as these tiresome characters. I really loathed them all.... Would not recommend this book and if anyone were to ask me what it was about I would simply say it left me speechless. Maybe it will be a book I'll read again in ten years time and will only appreciate it then, as for now I never want to see it again. Never, never, NEVER!!

3/10 because I love Fitzgerald
