graceevalyn 's review for:

The Beautiful and Damned by F. Scott Fitzgerald
3.0

The writing is beautiful, obvi, and for that reason alone (and the atmosphere it created) this was an enjoyable book. It always tickles my brain in a different way to read older books and I was craving that. That said, I don't think I really took much away from this story - it was one more story of people who pursue pleasure above all and then (surprise!) discover that it isn't enough. Didn't feel like it was saying anything too original but it sure did say it beautifully.
