"‘Your wife doesn’t love you,’ said Gatsby. ‘She’s never
loved you. She loves me.’"

Finally, it comes out.

remarked Wilson. ‘That’s why I want to get away. That’s why
I been bothering you about the car."

Ohhhhhh! I never realized that Tom finds out Myrtle is potentially going away so I'm sure at this point he's like "well we both can't have a side piece" and I'm sure this only adds to his poor mood.

Daisy kissing Gatsby and being all "You know I love you?" is so gross of her. When she knows she won't leave her husband in the end.

"‘Can’t repeat the past?’ he cried incredulously. ‘Why of
course you can!’"

And here's the whole crux of the Gatsby issue.

I had totally forgotten about Dan Cody and the whole persona of Jay Gatsby being created as it was.

I remember this scene of Gatsby throwing the shirts everywhere. The neat freak in me is cringing. And wondering how long it will take to fold everything back into the drawers.

"Are you in love with me,’ she said low in my ear. ‘Or why did I have to come alone?’"

Dude, aren't you guys like cousins? What a weird thing to say.

What a duo perspective of Gatsby we get in this chapter. I think I'm seeing this now as opposed to the first time I read it.

I'm not sure how I'd feel if I was Nick-arranging for Daisy and Gatsby to reunite all these years after what sounds like a torrid love affair.

Wow, based on the story Jordan is telling, Gatsby made quite the impression on Daisy.

Daisy is a flirt that like expensive things and happens to meet the poor Jay Gatsby during the prime of her life. Got it.

I know remember that Wolfshiem is a bad dude. Here he almost thinks that Nick is this man they are talking about having bad business with.

"He was never quite still; there was always a tapping foot somewhere or the impatient opening and closing of a hand."

General observation, Gatsby is nervous/antsy most of the time.

I do have to say-this portion where Nick is just listing the people who come to Gatsby's party is boring to read.

Ohhhhh, apparently Owl Eyes in the library is a significant character because he (like Nick) is genuinely curious about Gatsby whereas most people attend his parties just because they can.

So, is Nick saying that Jordan is kind of shady? She lies and stuff.

Omg Jordan is the absolute WORST telling Nick just snippets of her conversation with Gatsby. I'd be like "Tell me everything!"

"‘I’m Gatsby,’ he said suddenly.
‘What!’ I exclaimed. ‘Oh, I beg your pardon."

Omg if I was Nick, I'd be so embarrassed. But I guess with all the craziness going on how he was ever really going to ever formally meet Gatsby.

What is the point of the man in the library with the owl eyed glasses? I feel like he was a symbol for something. Sparknotes later.

"inside of a week I got a package from Croirier’s with a new evening gown in it."

Gatsby is so freaking wish he can just drop money on complete strangers.

"People were not invited—they went there."

Damn. People like a good time. But it's also gotta be Gatsby's reputation, right? Like they wouldn't go to a lame person's party.
