Whats so great about Gatsby

1. I think that Gatsby is a decent person because he did all of what he did for someone he loved and cared about. I also think that he is living in the past and that he needs to change and think more about himself and not just daisy first.
2. I think that nick is an honest person and I think that he shows is at the end of the book because he goes to Gatsby's funeral and tries to get some other people to go. I think that Nick hangs out with dishonest people because he might think that maybe they will change or maybe he just likes how they are. He respects them because he might think that they are good at what they are doing.
3. Fitzgerald describes Tom and Daisy as two characters that just protect and care about themselves and nobody else. I do agree because Tom tries to tell Nick that he wasn't the bad guy and just did it to save himself.
4. I don't understand Daisy's behavior because she was indecisive and just wanted to do things that made her happy and doesn't think about anyone else. I do not agree with what she is doing because she doesn't care what happens to anyone and what just cares about saving herself. She is not a girl that I would let my friend date because she would only want the best for her and not for both of them, she would only use his to get what she wants.
5. I think that last line of the book means that you shouldn't try and recreate the past or bring it back because you will lose like rowing against the current.
