A review by miramichireader
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

4.0

I had read this book so long ago (high school years) that I had forgotten the story. So it was like reading it fresh again. As I was reading it, I was thinking of Hunter S. Thompson's The Rum Diaries for some reason. I think it is because of the writer's viewpoint in both cases. Things are happening around -and to- Nick/HST and we get to live vicariously through them, for good or bad. I'll have to watch the movie now to see how it compares to the novel.
