I read The Great Gatsby when I was in 9th grade and I remember enjoying it. It’s known as “a portrait of the Jazz Age” and it captured my young imagination and gave me a lifelong interest in historical fiction and the Jazz Age.
I have plans to read it again, as an adult. It will be interesting to see if I still feel the same way. I do know that even if I don’t, what it did for me as a teenager will stay with me. I will never loose my thirst for historical fiction!

I look forward to seeing what you think. I have just started a Fitzgerald project. My next read is going to be Gatsby. Stop over and see what you think. Maybe we can swap thoughts on the novel.

Laurie, I’m not sure when I will get to read it. It will probably be awhile. Your site is a cool tribute.
