Everyone knows Gatsby. New money. Murky past. Huge online following.

"A clever, gender-flipped modern-day retelling of the classic" - Grazia

"Stylish and beautifully written, with a case of the most decadently unhinged characters" - JAMES GOODHAND

"Unputdownable" - ROSIE MULLENDER

Nic Carraway doesn’t belong amongst the super-rich, but when she scores a cheap summer lease in Long Island, it-girl Jay Gatsby becomes her neighbour.

Gatsby welcomes Nic to her opulent parties attended by the world’s A-list. In return, Nic helps Gatsby reconnect with an old flame: Nic’s cousin, the ever-charming but now-married Danny Buchanan.

But no one can be careless like the rich. As the summer heats up, Nic finds herself tangled in a web of longing and ambition, betrayal and deceit. In a world where everyone is lying – about and to themselves – can Nic finally tell the truth?

For readers of The Paper Palace, this hot summer story gender-flips and reimagines F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel.

Requested a price match on a weekend day expecting to hear back on the Monday, but I got a response from Dylan just a few hours later, put through my order and the books were here Tuesday! Super fast and friendly service, love supporting smaller NZ businesses! Thanks to Heroes Dylan and Jordan for making my book-buying experience a breeze 😄
