A book that gets better the farther into it you get and leaves you thinking after you've finished it.

Definitely a more enjoyable experience than my last Hemingway venture, A Farewell to Arms. Much more interesting, memorable characters with a fascinating narrator. The premise of Jake and his relationship with Brett was so well thought of and really made the novel worth reading.

In a lot of ways, this is just another boring hang out novel. In other ways, it is a deep dive into the relationship between man and woman, jealousy and love, and how many drinks someone can have in one sitting and not throw up or get in a fight. Good read!
