"One of my favourite books is The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I find myself always going back to this book throughout my life. I love the cadence of the way he writes. It's so snappy. It just flows and you're in it — you're inside it. He writes almost like poetry.

"For those reasons I've always come back to that story, which is interesting because the first time I read it I was forced to read in high school and I didn't appreciate it. It wasn't until years later that I picked it up again and read it and could really appreciate the story and the kind of deeper meanings behind it."
