Daisy and Gatsby

I just finished read chapter 5. It´s a very interesting chapter in which we can see a lot of different feeling between the characters.
The first part of the chapter when Gatsby invites Nick to hang out to Coney Island Nick seems distant with Gatsby, like he is making excuses to don't go there.as
But the main idea in this chapter is the meeting again between Gatsby and Daisy. As Gatsby sais in the chapter, it has been almost five years since he saw her, but in my opinion i think that Gatsby is in love with Daisy. When he is showing her his house, he looks like he wants her to live there with him. But i am  not sure about Daisy, she looks like she likes Gatsby, but i don't really know if she is in love with him, because sometimes it seems that she just love his money, like she is materialistic, but there is something of Gatsby that attracts her. I think that she at the final of the book she is going to go with Gatsby because it looks like in a few chapters Gatsby and Daisy are going to stay together.

NY party and others

When i finished reading the second chapter I understood so much better the first one that i said it was confusing. There’s a lot of things to talk abot in this chapter.

Second chapter helped me to see how is Tom, i was right when i said that he is kind of rude and mean. The main idea in this second chapter is that Tom cheats her wife with a girl whose name is Myrtle. She is married to Mr. Wilson, belongs to a middle class while Tom is in the high class with a lot of money. I think that this made Tom ashamed or embarrass when he is with her because he knows that he is from a different social class, old money, and he doesn't want to lose that privilege. So Myrtle is kind of his toy. But Myrtle is in love with him so she doesn’t cares or maybe she doesn’t see that… I think that in the future Daisy, Tom’s wife, will realize that her husband is cheating on her.

The fact that Tom hit Myrtle in the face was a sign of his character of dominant male or something like that… and Myrtle continued loving him, so that why I think that she doesn’t realize how Tom is using her.

Finally, when Mr. Mckee talks about the Gatsby’s party one month ago, and he said that Gatsby scares him, I think that the reaction of Nick was the opposite, like he wants to meet him and he is interested in him.

Gatsby starts

I finish read chapter one of Gatsby. When I was reading I feel like a little bit confused... I want to talk about Gatsby. This character seems mysterious, unknown, like that nobody knows who he is really, I don't know yet who is he, but I am interested on it. Other character in who I pay attention is Tom, he seems rude, self- sufficient and maybe mean. While his wife, Daisy is a woman that had passed bad experiences in the past so she is very protective and a careful person.

Also, I get so impressed about Nick commentaries about the book, when he said "It’s up to us, who are the dominant race, to watch out or these other races will have control of things ”. That comment is kind of racist, and he sounds despising when he said “that other races”.

This chapter is a little bit confusing but it seems that while I am going to read next chapter I will understand everything better.
