The Great Gatsby

Summary: what a treat!
Review: Man, this year in English has been a tough one! First it was Their Eyes were watching God...don't read it--it's in ebonics! Then it was the crucible (good but hard) then...the Scarlet Letter. So...when it was time for the next story, I thought how good can this be? Well, it rocked! It was so cool and well-written...read it, even because "it's a classic"...you'll love it!

Summary: The best book I have ever picked up
Review: This book is rated #1 in the Random House list. So I decided to try it. When I read it and I really love it because it's interesting how Jay Gatsby love Daisy in Chapter 5. Chapter 1 and 2 is not very interesting but Chapter 3 to the end is very good. The end is the best.I just read it January, 1999. I think you should try it.

Summary: I know the secret behind this book
Review: The secret is: the author was a drunk. Had I not been forced to read this book in school, I would never have finished it, and I've read a lot of dull books. I've read a lot of classics, but this is probably the only one I think is not worth the effort. Frankly, I'm still wondering why it's a classic; there's nothing to it. So Gatsby's not what he seems, so he gets shot, so Nick's a homosexual, so what? Is there anything worthy in this book? Anything at all?

Summary: A very dull book
Review: Reading the Great Gatsby is like trying to follow a soap opera! There are too many people having affairs with others and too many descriptions. Who really cares about what the windows look like?

Summary: Incredible!!!
Review: This book is a must-read! I had to read it for my junior english class, and loved it! You will totally get into the book, and it is easy to hate and love certain characters!

Summary: THE GREAT GATSBY IS A VERY INTERESTING BOOK
Review: THE BOOK IS VERY DETAILED AND VERY VIVID. I FELT LIKE I WAS THERE WITH GATSBY. I IMAGINED MYSELF AT ONE OF HIS PARTIES AND I FELT I WAS HAVING FUN WITH EVERYBODY THERE. GATSBY THREW SOME OF THE BEST PARTIES BECAUSE HE COULD AFFORD IT. I FELT REALLY BAD FOR GATSBY BECAUSE HE WAS ALL ALONE. THE BOOK MADE FEEL LIKE I KNEW GATSBY. I COULD NOT STOP READING BECAUSE I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT. I THOUGHT THE ENDING WAS REALLY SAD WHEN ONLY THREE PEOPLE OTHER THAN HIS SERVANTS ATTENDED HIS FUNERAL. I THOUGHT OVERALL THIS BOOK WAS GREAT. I WILL RECOMMEND IT TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY.

Summary: A "must" read novel, truly a masterpiece.
Review: The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the authorized text, takes us back to the roaring 1920's. A story about a wealthy Jay Gatsby and his determined love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan. Every character is interesting and represents some essential lesson or dramatic point of view of the 1920's. Great novel, you must read it, and read between the lines for there is much to be learned from this superior work of art.
