It wasn't bad, I like the first and the last parts, didn't really care or like more of the middle part. In the end I still don't really understand what it was all about though.
Gatsby was a hopeless romantic and that's kind of it. I wish I could say more about the book but I really have no clue what to say. It was interesting though how he died pretty much alone, even though it seemed like there was an abundance of people who happened to know him. Overall, I honestly didn't like the story if I think. Ik it's a classic and maybe I just didn't understand the significance and the meaning of a lot of it but it still doesn't change the fact that for the most part I was quite bored and the only interesting subject that kept me reading was Jay Gatsby. 2.75 or 3 out of 5 for me
