Welcome to Litsy!

Perhaps the fact that the 2008 film revealed the basic twist of the plot spoiled for me any surprising aspects that the story may have had for its original readers. However, I also read Jekyll & Hyde recently, and my familiarity with the story didn‘t affect my reading enjoyment.

Fitzgerald does write some beautiful passages, but overall I found it a bit dull.

Thanks again for the opportunity to read this, @SerialReader !

Three stars. Good if you want to compare Fitzgerald‘s work. My second Serial Reader book this year. (Of 20). #finishingfebruary

Quickie audiobook on my way to work 😄 I enjoyed this one! It's a quick read and quite interesting.

An absurd story about a man who is born old and ages backward written as a children's story. It reminded me of Curious George, but with humorous potshots at societal conventions and prejudices. A quick, fun read. 4/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A great day for reading at the lake.

Loved it

Picked up this book for the Book Lover's Supper Club at our local indie theater (Robinson Film Center) and now going back to read the ones we didn't cover. Hadn't read F. Scott since college and am enjoying his descriptions.
