The Great Gatsby

I am a little behind . . . I finished The Great Gatsby several days ago, but got busy with life so I am just now getting to my blog. What can you say about The Great Gatsby. Each time I read it I think it is a wonderful book. F. Scott Fitzgerald did a great job of bringing the time frame to life to include the wonderful images of the summertime parties, the care free life styles, jealousy of lovers, the feelings we try but never can forget, and the doors that get opened when we truly get to know people. People are the mystery that they create within themselves, that mystery and a long lost love bring about an amazing turn of events. Written in a way that takes the reader back to an intriguing time in history. I will always give The Great Gatsby five books out of five.
