How do we go from a snapshot into the “perfect life” of Tom and Daisy to this wild party scene with Tom and Myrtle at the center. And everyone sits around like they’re in the right??
And then Tom’s audacity to claim ownership of Daisy in the midst of his adultery? He’s bad news.
Very excited about another mention of Gatsby. Fitzgerald does a great job of building anticipation around his character.

I will not trick myself into thinking romantic obsession is cute. It’s delusional. Gatsby, like any human, created something in his mind an idol of sorts of Daisy. Love is one thing, obsession is another and I wonder how this will end…
We still don’t know what he does for work …

I don’t hate it, but I don’t love it. There’s a lot to keep up with, and new, shady, characters keep popping up. I’m not trusting homie with the collar molers thing, I’m not particularly enjoying the characters either. They all seem miserable and dissatisfied. Distrust is the word. There are more characters to distrust than trust & Nick seems most honest and reliable.

Took a few pages to get into it but once Nick arrives at Daisy’s house it gets slightly interesting. I’m going to flip back and figure out why Tom brings up the book & try to reimagine the mannerisms of each character. What made Tom and Daisy get married? How does Daisy know Miss Baker? Why is Gatsby so important?
