I wasn't sure where it was going for the first half of the book but the pace picks up in the second half and you see what it was building up to.

Synopsis
Generally considered to be F Scott Fitzgerald's finest novel. "The Great Gatsby" is a consummate summary of the "roaring twenties", and a devastating expose of the "Jazz Age". Through the narration of Nick Carraway, the reader is taken into the superficially glittering world of the mansions which lined the Long Island shore in the 1920s, to encounter Nick's cousin Daisy, her brash but wealthy husband Tom Buchanan, Jay Gatsby and the mystery that surrounds him.

Quite a slow start but the pace builds nicely as the book progresses. I can see why it is considered a classic.
