The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

This book is about Jay Gatsby, a mysterious young millionaire who lives on Long Island and seems to be in love with his married neighbor Daisy.  I find this hard to understand, as I find Daisy kind of annoying.  Gatsby makes a big sacrifice for her, so the story is kind of sad.  Forbidden love and sad endings are not my usual favorites, but I still enjoyed this book.  Of course Fitzgerald is  great writer which always helps.

It is a quick easy read, especially for a literary great.  It is easily worth the time.
