Finding your next read isn’t always a simple task, but sometimes all it takes to discover your perfect book match is a riveting review from a fellow book lover.

Each month, in the Telegraph's readers' book review series, we will ask our readers to choose a theme or book in our Telegraph Book Club Facebook group – from popular book events to bestseller fiction – and then submit their reviews.

This month, our readers voted to celebrate F Scott Fitzgerald's birthday by reviewing his third novel, The Great Gatsby. Set in the Jazz Age on Long Island near New York City, the novel tells the story of the mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby and his pursuit of Daisy Buchanan. Although it was unsuccessful upon publication in 1925, the book is now considered a classic of American fiction and has often been called the Great American Novel.

To send us your review of Fitzgerald's classic novel, fill in the form below to tell us what you liked or disliked about the book, what ideas and moments stood out for you and why you think the book is still relevant today. Don’t forget to give your star rating out of five. We will publish a selection of the best responses in a Telegraph article.
