Title: This Side of Paradise
Author: F. Scott Fitzgerald
Pages: 6 discs
Genre: Classic
Grade: B-
Synopsis: F. Scott Fitzgerald's first novel was also his most popular during his life. The book was published just a few years after the conclusion of World War I and quickly became a symbol of the excesses and restlessness of the young people during the Roaring Twenties. The novel follows the rich, young Princeton student, Amory Blaine. Amory is a self-absorbed egotist obsessed with his image and creating a name for himself.
My Review: I found this book to be quite boring and simply uninteresting. Not much happens and there didn't seem to be anything in the story that is meant to grab you and keep your interest.
