"A fast-paced, tightly focused story."
—The Horn Book"A compelling investigation of the transience of charisma and the flimsy underpinnings of popularity."
—The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books"Korman's reworking of The Great Gatsby places the action in a modern framework, which makes it more recognizable for today's readers and may lead them to the classic. Teens will find deeper issues to consider about popularity, being true to one's self, and taking responsibility for one's actions as they relate to the setting and characters."
