The Great Gatsby | Francis Scott Fitzgerald

“And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer”

☀️ I always feel like life does begin over a bit with the start of summer, especially on a summer morning while listening to the birds singing. Rereading this after Corrigan‘s book has just been a reading treat. My mind is just swirling.

"When I see a beautiful shell like that I can't help feeling a regret about what's inside it" ?

Dick and Nicole Diver create a #PerfectIllusion but alas, the second half of the book reveals all is not perfect.

Cinfhen I've been wanting to read this #classic but you know....#somanybookssolittletime 7y
DivineDiana @Jess_Read_This What a beautiful drawing? Is it a note card? Or is that the cover? (edited) 7y
Jess_Read_This @Cinfhen Oh yes!! I know that struggle quite well. I read it this year thanks to some buddies who were reading it. Peer pressure works wonders with me. 😂😂 7y
