    I also love Fitzgerald for that exact reason. While Gatsby is by far the better novel, This Side of Paradise has that beautiful writing style, I think even better, although the story is not as well-turned.

    As an aside, have you ever read anything by A.S. Byatt? I tend to think of them as writers with something in common- but I can't quite put my finger on it- whether it is writing style or what- I though Posession was a LOT of fun, and one of the short stories in Angels and Insects (Morpho Eugenia) was particularly beautifully done, haunting and very disturbing.

    As I consider myself a bit of a hedonist, I can forgive Fitzgerald his indulgences

    But in the brief time right now that I have to read things other than school books, I'm leaning toward biographies. Love to read about people's lives.
    i'm a big biography fan. im also a big fan of books about the military, i've read every biography i could get my hands on written about the war in Vietnam.

    Yea I love The Color Purple and Flowers for Algernon as well. Dracula was a damn good book but to me Frankenstein was far superior. Just like the misunderstood man who creeps through windows!
