5.0

i will never cease loving this book. from the first time i read it when i was 13 to now when i’m in college, i don’t think i’ll ever be able to describe how this book makes me feel. maybe it is basic to have this as one of my favorite books but the intricate details and images painted always hold a place in my heart. there is so much meaning in this fantastic novel that one cannot possibly just skim this book. the tragedy, longing for more, and loss in gatsby’s life that is so wonderfully captured in 180 pages is incredible. daisy’s self absorption and tom’s careless brutality. nick’s desolate world and jordan’s air of ignorance. these unbelievably unlikeable but loved characters make this book the masterpiece that it is
