Blog #5. The Great Gatsby

This week I read chapter 6. At the chapter 6, it emphasizes the love between Daisy and Gatsby. Also in this chapter it talked about where the wealth of Gatsby comes from. Daisy frequently visited Gatsby's house and Tom starts to suspect Daisy. Gatsby held another party and invited Nick, Daisy, and Tom. Daisy had an unpleasant time at the party because Tom insulted Gatsby, how he earned money. Daisy became upset and tried to protect Gatsby. Daisy went back to her home with Tom and Gatsby seems a bit sad. Gatsby wants Daisy not to be married to Tom but be with him.

I think this chapter is showing how selfish Gatsby is. Even though Gatsby liked Daisy, he shouldn't have shown his feeling. He should have keep his mind for himself. This can be shown as his bravery but to me, it's not. Gatsby is selfish to want Daisy because she is already married to Tom. He shouldn't have move to West Egg to be close to Daisy.
