“That’s a question to think about as you start

“That’s a question to think about as you start to read this thing, whether for the first or fifty-first time. Daisy is this man’s objective, but she’s the wrong fantasy. It was never her he wanted. Not really. It was America. One that’s never existed. Just a movie of it. 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢.”
— Wesley Morris’ introduction to The Great Gatsby

This quote makes me wonder if F. Scott would loathe the way we’ve sensationalized and idolized The Great Gatsby. Would he hate how we’ve made films about it? I wonder if he’s disappointed in how we don’t discuss the depravity of society enough, how greed can poison a soul, how the American Dream is just that— an illusion— something that was never meant to be achieved.

After all, he did say, “Of all the reviews, even the most enthusiastic, not one had the slightest idea what the book was about.”

Thank you so much to @randomhouse for gifting me this stunning new edition of #TheGreatGatsby . I feel like its haunting, dark cover really captures the mood that F. Scott was trying to convey to us all.

Anyone else have Gatsby thoughts? I’d love to discuss 👀

“Women, they have minds, and they have souls, as

“Women, they have minds, and they have souls, as well as just hearts. And they’ve got ambition, and they’ve got talent, as well as just beauty. I’m so sick of people saying that love is all a woman is fit for.”

What are some of your favorite book to movie adaptations that you’ve both read the book and watched the movie?

Mine are:
• Shutter Island (2010)
• Little Women (2019)
• Catching Fire (2013)
• The Great Gatsby (2013)
• Pride and Prejudice (2005)
• To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before (2018)

— oh to have the attention span that 13 year old

— oh to have the attention span that 13 year old Olivia had where she was able to read 500 page novels in 2 days —

I’m finding it so difficult to sit down and read, as of late. My mind wanders too much, and I can only seem to concentrate on novels when I’m listening to them on audiobook.

If anyone has tips on how to improve my attention span, please, a girl needs help.

what are some of your go-to outfits?

for me, it’s tucking a sweater into mom jeans. i’m sooo over skinny jeans because i find them to be so uncomfortable and restricting and i don’t think they’re flattering on me, so i’ve really gotten into mom jeans or some nice pants like the one i’m wearing in this photo.

this is also from my Second-Hand Clothing haul on my channel, so feel free to check it out to see what other pieces i added to my closet!

AN ANTICIPATED READ

[Thank you to @randomhouse for gifting me a copy of #MalibuRising by @tjenkinsreid ]

— Four famous siblings throw an epic party to celebrate the end of the summer. But over the course of twenty-four hours, their lives will change forever. —

I am so excited to read this book and dive into a new Taylor Jenkins Reid novel. She has written some of my favorite books like Evelyn Hugo and Daisy Jones, so I’m itching to start this ASAP! I might even do a reading vlog for it to share my thoughts!

What’s one of your most anticipated reads of 2020?

#CurrentlyReading : Rebeca by Daphne du Maurier 🌹

I’m finally doing it, friends. I’m reading Rebecca! After waiting MONTHS for the audiobook to get off hold, I finally can listen to the story on @overdrive_libs .

This reading experience is a bit different, for me. Right now I’m listening to the audiobook as I follow along in the novel and it’s made the experience more enjoyable because I found the first few chapters a bit hard to get through on my own, so listening to someone else read the book keeps me engaged and invested in the story.

I’m excited to get through it to eventually watch Hitchcock’s adaptation & the recent @netflixfilm ‘s adaptation of #Rebecca , as well!

[Thank you to Liam for gifting me this STUNNING copy of Rebecca from my book wishlist]
