Blog Topic #5: Personal Review

           I positively enjoyed The Great Gatsby mostly because of how easy it was for me to comprehend and relate to. I was very entertained by the love story between Daisy and Gatsby and felt like I could relate to a lot of the story. I thought it was well written, too. F. Scott Fitzgerald did a remarkable job of changing his sentence structures periodically and keeping the audience amused. Throughout the entire novel I mostly liked how Fitzgerald switched topics frequently as he would talk about Gatsby’s life and then switch to the events taking place in Nick’s life. Something else I loved about the novel was the simplicity of how it was written. While reading some novels, I have gotten confused due to a high level of vocabulary or strange sentence structure, but in The Great Gatsby, Fitzgerald maintains a simple and comprehensible level of vocabulary. I did not dislike anything in particular about the novel because the whole story was so well-written. The way I related to Daisy and Gatsby’s relationship was the only thing that stood out to me while reading The Great Gatsby, since it was so easy for me to understand how Gatsby thought. Of all novels I have read, The Great Gatsby is definitely one of my favorites..
