This side of paradise- F Scott Fitzgerald

True literary genius! Every sentence seems almost poetic and always surprises me. Never really felt that way about Fitzgerald when I read his other books. Anyway I'm only at the first few chapters and it doesn't really seem to have a plot. Basically just talks about the lives of a bunch of Ivy League boys trying to be popular... But the characters are so meticulously described that they really seem alive...I love this part where Amory talked about literature with a guy who wrote poems and was a fellow book lover...
