I can conclude, having finished this collection of short stories, that with the exception of The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald is just not really for me. This collection was saved, in my opinion, by The Diamond as Big as the Ritz, Porcelain and Pink, and Jemina the Mountain Girl. Barring some moments of subtle but shocking endings, I found the rest of the stories dull, and the characters empty, and the prose ineffective.

Does anyone know if this is Zelda Fitzgerald on the cover? It looks like her but I'm not sure.

This is one of two bookshelves in my room. In addition to these I have 10 stacks on a table and at least 11 more bookshelves throughout my house. This is what happens when you grow up in a house of readers. @Litsy #24in48 #readathon #shelfie

There were no troublesome memories in his childish sleep; no token came to him of his brave days at college, of the glittering years when he flustered the hearts of many girls.
