I was pleased to see the author had thanked F Scott Fitzgerald at the end of this novel for his inspiration!
However, throughout the book I was disappointed by how similar it was to the great Gatsby.
This is perhaps my mistake though as when I had selected the book to read I had expected it to tell its own story and not be as close to the great Gatsby as it was.
I love the great Gatsby but I just wanted this little book to tell its own story.
