The Great Gatsby threw me back into the early years of life. The suspenseful plot pulled me to continue on reading. The story starts with a young man... also known as, Nick. He has just moved into a new neighborhood and from the gatherings out in the neighborhood such as parties, Nick finds out more about the mysterious neighbor who lives in a mansion; Jay Gatsby. As Nick gets to know him more, he actually realizes that all the rumors about Gatsby were all wrong... well almost. He was indeed a nice man. He also finds out that Gatsby was in love with Daisy who is Nick's cousin and is married to Tom. Nick tries his very best and tries to help the lover. Nick as planned... invited Daisy to the house with out letting her know that Gatsby would be there. As the chapter closes, Daisy and Gatsby seem to be getting along really well. As for Nick's love affair, he and Jordan went on a date together. It went pretty well although it was a little bit awkward at first.
There are many characters in the story and the difficult part for me was to remember each persons individual story. I had to turn the page and look back into the characters introduction. The author wrote very clean but some parts were confusing to me. Such as when the book started, it started with an anecdote which confused me slightly.
My predictions are that Daisy and Gatsby will date each other right after the night together and eventually break up because of the differences and because Tom will interfere. And Nick and Jordan will meet up more often... But I do believed that they will have to face some obstacles in order to be together. And of course, I believe that Tom and Gatsby will end up having a controversy. I also think that Tom is an unfaithful man to Daisy and she will find out later.
