This was my first time reading this story and I liked it, but didn't love it. It is very well written. I loved how he shared the death scene, his choice of words, poetic in a way. I saw the movie awhile back and have to say they did a great job with the movie as it went right along with the book.
It's a story about a wealthy man, made his money (not a trust fund baby), started out poor, but wanted to live the life of the wealthy to woo Daisy back. He did everything to try and fit in the crowd of the wealthy but never seemed to quite fit in. You have the life of the east coast during the 20's, the parties, the drinking, the affairs.... it's a good book.
