Read this in half a day. It's a predictable romance with a large dose of misbehaving teenagers. I have no objections to that.

What I do object to, and what almost makes me give just one star, is the incredibly crude language. It's really over the top. I could spend a half day with it but if this book had been longer I would have abandoned ship. (this makes me feel like an old lady. I'm horrified to think that this is normal conversation between young kids!)

Also - I got this for .99 which made its shortcomings far more palatable.… (mais)

The only problem I had about this book is that I wanted it to be longer. :)

Good start to 2016. Finished in one quick burst and one (not too long) marathon. I last reread Gatsby in 2011, and this is just the right amount of faithful. Also, how can you spoil something based on The Great Gatsby? But I will say nearly a century later that more than ever, it reads like the coward's way out.

Fun, fluffy little read. Sometimes the references back to Gatsby were clever - the "green light" is now a laptop charger - and sometimes they felt lazy. The hit-and-run from the original is pretty much rewritten scene for scene in this book.
