thank you for realizing the truth
I read this for English class this year and everyone fucking hated Daisy and I was so bitter and salty about it
I'm so ready for this thinkpiece. ๐๐ป I love this book, and think Daisy is on of the not interesting, flawed and developed heroines I've ever read.
I'm impatiently waiting for your review.
i wrote my senior thesis with this as the central idea! so excited to read your review ๐

oh my god that's so amazing. i'm flattered you'd even want to read it lol
Oh, Daisy's my favorite character, too. Gatsby's okay, but Daisy wins it all.

kinda can't stand gatsby for how he treats daisy but god i love her yes
I'm intrigued I never looked at Daisy in a good light but I'm really curious to hear why she is so awesome. (I also read this book many years ago so my view can totally be different from my present view if I were to pick it up and read it now)

the first time i read it i just liked her vapidly (as is characteristic of a middle schooler) but the next time i really thought about it and was like damn...i love her
i have like half of this review done so i just need to get my act together and finish
i also had the "everyone in the class hates Daisy except me" experience and i'm so glad i've found y'all enlightened people lol

welcome to the dark side (the dark side here means "the correct minority")
I guess Im in the majority belief here. I'm eager to be proven wrong though

Nonsense I totally get it and I appreciate your taking you time to write a thoughtful review of Daisy. Well thought out reviews are always the best :)

thank you!! i just finished writing it will post soon
ooooo this is one of my favorite books and I'm very intrigued

i knooww, two stars crazy. i may revisit it! i read it about 5 years ago and i really wasn't able to grasp classics back then.
wow, great review I honestly haven't read it yet but now I'm intrigue :)
This was spectacular and I need to reread this book asap and honestly I need more people in my life who write passionate rants about underrated characters from my fav classics
this review changed my life; I need to reread this book soon
Emma you know what I totally did not even like this book and now I am completely convinced that it's because it's not told from Daisy's perspective fucking bravo I hope you torched your high school English class because I'd LOVE to show this to my high school English teacher she would love this so much so thank you for writing this A+ excellent & totally worth the time it took you lol ๐
This is my absolute favorite book and you totally presented Daisy in a new light to me:-)
YESSSSSSSS
Everything about this review is perfect (even if I like Gatsby as a character ๐๐ป) from your background info to the apologies. Daisy was definitely a flawed, but fantastic character. The "beautiful fool" line adds an entire depth to her character people seem to forget about. Especially love that you mention gender roles/expectations, because everyone seems to hold her to 2017 standards and it doesn't work.
๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป brava
You totally showed me Daisy in a new light. (I thought she was a little dumb in the book but I liked her well enough)
Love the review.

ahhhh thank you! i know, everyone acts like daisy had nuthin' but options but her life was incredibly restrictive. 2017 daisy would slay it all

Love the review."
omg ty! i think a lot of it is her attempts to be the "beautiful fool" she knows is the ideal - so despite some acting she is not stupid
I loved this! I totally want to pick up the book now. Great job :D
MY DARLING ANGEL you are so welcome like it's been a couple hours and I'm STILL thinking about what a blessing this review is on my feed I swear to god
Interesting well thought review... This definitely made me rethink the book characters... I would like to applaud you for arguments number 2,7,8 and 9 those were absolutely groundbreaking... I love when I read reviews like these... Really BRAVOOO ๐๐
