On the other hand, 'The Great Gatsby' left a different impression. I read it once, initially intrigued by the hype surrounding it as a romance novel. However, my experience differed from the expectations. The novel, in my view, is more about the American Dream, delving into the complexities of wealth and societal values. While it's a compelling work with its own merits, I found it to be more of a commentary on the Jazz Age than a traditional romance.
In a scenario where I have to choose between the two, I'd undoubtedly go with 'Pride and Prejudice.' Its timeless appeal and exploration of love within the social context resonate more with my personal preferences in the romance genre.
