Just reading again for the Nerdfighter Blurbing Book Club. John says I'll like it better this time. We shall see.

Old rating: 2/5
New rating: 5/5

I can't say enough about this book. In high school I suffered under the "I automatically hate this book because I have to read it for class and over-analyze it" syndrome. But reading it again and being able to appreciate Fitzgerald's wonderful writing....I have so many highlights in this book. I grieved for Gatsby at the end and I totally understand his plight (while at the same time just being annoyed with basically every character). Oh man, I just loved it this time.
