Gotta say...

Important Themes in Harry Potter

• Friendship is as strong as romance
• Power can corrupt even the greatest
• Love brings us together
• Don’t abuse or abandon your kids

Important Themes in The Great Gatsby

• Fuck the Jazz Age

OH MAN, CLASSIC LITERATURE IS SO GREAT AND MEANINGFUL I HATE TODAY’S BOOKS.
