Daisy Buchanan Is The Real Hero Of The Great Gatsby: A Thinkpiece
will be dropping my pièce de résistance soon
(this is my attempt at a fun way of saying, "review to come and that review will blow your mind and make you realize that daisy is the best part of this book")

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. 🙌🏻 I love this book, and think Daisy is on of the not interesting, flawed and developed heroines I've ever read.

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)

(I also read this book many years ago so my view can totally be different from my present..."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
