A classic, the true definition of one actually. I'd say that it's one of my favorite novels, even with its flaws. Part of me wishes that there was more to the story, a stronger focus on Nick after the death of Gatsby. But, in its entirety, it is fun and captivating, fantastical and dream-like. I do wish I could experience the dream world of The Great Gatsby.
