crazy book awsome book great for a movie and book, and  TV show  there just so much drama JUST MORE AND MORE iam not done with it yet but its totally awsome!

not sure if it would make a good game

I actually hated the book, i still will read it again since its so critically acclaimed, but F. Scott. Fitzgerald was a drunken fool his whole life and i think that transcends into his literature. The plot was boring, the person who tells the story, nick, seems like an empty shell(no pun intended) and Gatsby is just a straight up fool.  He should have stuck with doing short stories like the Curious Case of Benjamin Button. 
 
Like i said, i should give the book another chance, but i really dont think it will change my mind at all..

I was never a big fan, but I guess it was okay. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, though... I can't say much about the actual text, but I thought the movie was shockingly terrible, though most of my criticism of the film has to do with the stupid story, not so much the movie aspects.

It was one of the few books that I actually enjoyed from high school. Definitely a classic.

I think it is actually a much better book the second time you read it. The sense of dread and foreshadowing in the book is much more effective if you know how the book ends.

i am at chapter 9, for movie i mean its the base idea for a movie,  tv show,  i am not sure if it would work for a game.  a lot of movies kind of have token some ideas from it i have not seen @SSully said:

" the Curious Case of Benjamin Button.   "

Brilliant book. I loved the writing, and the last chapter of the book...incredible. It would lend itself so well to a movie; shame they messed it up.

Great book.

you mean the Curious Case of Forest Gump?    "

Hated it, I get its literature importance, but it's not my cup of jack daniels spiked tea.

calling the great Gatsby a bad piece of literature, do u have no taste? 
 
i can see not enjoying it but...

Gatsby is brilliant, but I do not personally enjoy any of Fitzgerald's work. Just not my cup of tea. I'm more a Steinbeck dude. :D

Well I actually really liked the book, it's totally my cup of milkshake.
