Flappers and Philosophers
Flappers and Philosophers | F. Fitzgerald
On the whole, Flappers and Philosophers represents the triumph of form over matter....There is no telling what good fortune awaits this volume of excellent short stories....The ingenuity which marks his works he may consider a necessity in American fiction of today....Mr. Fitzgerald is working out an idiom, and it is an idiom at once universal, American, and individual.- The New York Times Book Review

His writing style is so engrossing. Even within each of these short stories, he is so vivid in the characters, emotions, settings, and themes. I enjoyed the majority of them. Many of the plots had those great kicker moments right at the end that make a short story really sing. There were a few that had frustratingly racist moments, and one in particular that was very racist.

These are the two books I picked up at B&N last night.

One of my non-bookish obsessions is The Beatles, and I am super excited to do some coloring this weekend, since I have no plans to do anything outside my house!

This B&N edition of Fitzgerald includes Flappers and Philosophers and The Beautiful and the Damned, plus a bunch of short stories. I thought the $7.98 discounted price was pretty reasonable.

A journal I kept a few years ago. I definitely wrote about very emotional things, which is pretty appropriate considering it's Fitzgerald. #riotgrams #NotebooksJournals

Today's "Operation Finish All the Books I'm in the Middle Of" has turned into a journey of discovery titled "Oh—so THAT'S where all my favorite bookmarks went."

BookishMarginalia I can relate! That Shakespeare bookmark is lovely, btw 8y
kristenlcoates @BookishMarginalia Thanks! I got it at the Folger Shakespeare library in DC; it really classes up my reading experience. 😉💕 8y

Another masterpiece from a great American writer. If Gatsby turned you off of Fitzgerald's writing, give these short stories a try.
