In chapter one we get to meet a few of the main characters. During this little get together I started developing some of my ideas about the main and side characters. Tom on one hand seems like he needs an attitude adjustment where as daisy on the other hand really needs to see the big picture. I think when Tom received the call from his mistress daisy started feeling a little upset and embarrassed When she came back she played it off saying " it could not be helped." i think she just is embarrassed by it. One theme i think that is at work during this chapter is be open and honest. As we could see from daisy she acted a lot more strange after the call and did not want nick finding out about Tom. I predict that Daisy and Tom are going to have some issues but i do not think daisy will really act on them. she seems to timid to stand up for herself to Tom.
To add to these characters it seems like Nick takes an early fancy to Jordan. I really do not know how this relationship will be but Nick seems to be very formal with them all. At this point i know the book is told by nick but i do not know who the book will focus on. Will it focus on Daisy and Nick? Tom and his mistress? Gatsby? i do not know and only reading will tell me ill be back with more in just a little while.
