What our readers think
Readers find this title to be a great American novel with breathtaking prose. However, some readers did not enjoy the narration and felt that there are better versions available. Overall, the book leaves readers wanting more Fitzgerald.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5May 28, 2025 4.5 stars really.. didn’t really appreciate it when i first read it in hs but i loved it the second time around
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Dec 18, 2024 Great narrator for a great book! Classic, a must read.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Nov 29, 2024 Excellently read by the narrator. He gets a 5⭐️. For an older reader with much classical reading experience (although this was my first time ready The Great Gatsby) I found it painfully slow until about halfway through. The last half, after the characters were developed was much better, smoother flowing, and much more interesting IMHO.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Jul 21, 2023 A Great American Novel. Sean Astin reads it very well
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Jul 21, 2023 I don't care for this narration at all. There are much better versions available.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Jul 21, 2023 Sean Astin did a great job. When I read it, this book's prose is breathtaking, however, listening to it conveyed a sadness that has escaped me when I read it (?) - or perhaps I have just forgotten. Always leaves me wanting more Fitzgerald.
 This would be a 5 star review, except that the last line of the book, and one of its most iconic, is obscured and denigrated by ridiculous music.
