This was such a layered book to immerse myself in. The theme of the insurmountable barrier between classes was expanded beautifully into this elaborate story of Gatsby in his pursuit of the American dream.

I had an absolute field day covering this book in sticky notes and organizing themes, symbolism, motifs, characters, etc. by colour. The writing and characters are truly enchanting (props to Zelda) ;)

(I did not read this book in school because covid messed up the curriculum)
