This is Fitzgerald's last, unfinished novel. Set in Hollywood, it's the story of Monroe Stahr, a studio manager. This wasn't my favorite book by F. Scott Fitzgerald, it was just ok.

Pickpick

Honestly, making this book a pick because it‘s so interesting to see Fitzgerald‘s notes and writing process. I‘ve learned a lot from it and got the beautiful prose in the process.

#BookNDinner! Well, film adaptation of a book, but close enough! 😜Just moments before the thunderstorm released a deluge of pouring rain upon us, my hero @MrBook arrived armed with a delicious mushroom-bacon pizza, crispy wings with ranch, Cesar salad, and Pepsi. Yum! 😋 Perfect Friday night! This has been another presentation of: #MrBookBookBabeKitchen. Happy reads & happy eats! 👍🏻 ⛈🍕🎥P.S. Anyone else watching this? What do you think of it?

BookBabe @LauraBeth hehe! I love watching the seasons change. I don't think I could live full time in a place that didn't have all 4. Just when I'm getting tired of the one, here comes another! 👌🏻This has been a exceptional summer. Lots of big thunderstorms, rain deluges, fog, etc. I'm enjoying the drama of it! 7y
BookBabe @Dragon super yummy! 😋 7y

Very much a pre-final draft but some beautiful writing nevertheless.

A panel with Matt Bomer (White Collar) and two showrunners/writer(s) for Amazon's upcoming adaptation of The Last Tycoon. It's weird to see someone that good-looking in real life and not just on the screen! #BookCon

Starring Matt Bomer: Amazon's new series based on F. Scott Fitzgerald's last (and unfinished) novel, The Last Tycoon. Launches late July. This panel discussed the process and art of taking a classic book and adapting it to film. Fascinating! #BookCon #BookCon2017 #BookCon17 #MattBomer #TheLastTycoon

Jess_Read_This Omigosh!! I would have loved to have heard about this. 💕 7y
