I've read this book three times. It's one of my favorite classics ever. The way F. Scott Fitzgerald uses the story to reflect the 20's and society in that time is just incredible. This book is much more than just a love story. It's a painting of a culture when people cared all about parties and fun and none about people and who they hurt. And of the two men who tried their hardest to embrace that culture, but got lost in the shallowness of it all. It's one of my favorite books of all time, and a classic that everyone should read at least once in their life.
