This book really showed me what happens if you try to reach and achieve the past that you once have had. It goes to show change, in people and their feelings. As Gatsby tried desperately to grasp Daisy again and to be like they once were. Is hard because that was 4 years ago and people have changed and it just so happened that she married a man and loved him. Through all of the wealth Gatsby obtain he never had a true dream in mind just Daisy.

1.5

This book would’ve been decent if it weren’t for the constant racial slurs and sexist comments. It was only actually during the last three chapters that anything remotely interesting happened and the rest of the book was just an excuse to be racist. Even during the last three chapters, I’d be really into it and then he’d say something so unbelievably offensive that I had to put the book down and rage inwardly at the book until I could bare to pick it back up. If it weren’t for the constant racism and sexism it probably would’ve been 3 stars - even then that’s not even that good. Overall, I have no idea how this is considered a must read classic when the book mainly consists of massively offensive quotes and ideals.
