I LOVE to read, and by writing about what I read, I hope to share some of my passion and inspire people to read books they might not otherwise consider. Or to pick up any book and read because it's fun and because reading makes the world a better place.

Chapter Eighteen: Tender is the Night
As a prelude to re-reading The Great Gatsby before seeing the movie, I decided to check out this other F. Scott Fitzgerald classic that I've never read, mostly because I had heard it was set largely in France and had it strongly recommended by a fellow French major. I'm definitely glad I decided to read it! Of course, the little bits and pieces in French were fun for me, but I really enjoyed the style of the writing as well. Most of all, I appreciated how Fitzgerald unrolls the telling of the story and how this affected and changed my perceptions of the novel's major characters.
