The Great Gatsby

I never thought I'd ever pick up The Great Gatsby until my coworker (and former high school English teacher) yelled at me to read it. I didn't think I'd like it, but it was okay. My biggest issue was with Fitzgerald's writing style, which annoyed me to no end. Like, he would change scenes and I'd totally miss the transition, or there was no transition at all. I found myself spacing out while reading, and I had to reread whole pages, which is why I took me a month to read. The story itself was alright, but I grew annoyed with most of the characters, especially Daisy and Tom.
I think I'll stay away from classics and stick to my YA fantasy from now on lol.
