Book Cents next book: The Great Gatsby

Since I'm talking about books, do these quotes sound familiar?

"The rich get richer and the poor get — children."

"Her voice is full of money."

"They were careless people, Tom and Daisy — they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made…"

They are from The Great Gatsby, which is the next book we will read at Book Cents. We’ll start posting about the first three chapters on (or around) August 30th, so you have time to pick up a copy and join us. The book is around 180 pages and we’ll take our time through it. The 1920s rich really aren't like us...I hope to see you there!
