I did not enjoy this story. It seemed very fragmented and seemed to jump around all over the place. It was interesting, however, to see the dynamics between men and women for that time period.

A must-read for Fitzgerald fans. Mirrors his own life with Zelda.

Finally got around to reading this classic. So interesting with lots of information onhow cultures affect out actions. Really enjoyed it.

I cannot exaggerate how beautifully this book is written. I am a picky reader and often favor style over substance but Fitzgerald is a master of weaving a great story with exquisite style. That said, it is not overdone -- Fitzgerald is not trying to impress but rather to enchant. And he does a damned good job at that. Overall, a highly recommended book!
