The Great Gatsby
Arguably the best book in American literature. Dancing, drinking, death; it has all of the components of a good party (in the 1920s). Other than the ‘beautiful fool’ bit, (which is quite insulting to the modern feminist), incredible writing. There is love, lies, (and again) an unworldly amount of drinking. with a twist at the end, you won’t know what hit you (hehe).
Also by F. Scott Fitzgerald: “This Side of Paradise”, “The Beautiful and Damned”
