New York in the summer of 1922 to learn about the bond business…

he went out for dinner with his cousin and her husband Tom, he meets Jordan
Baker a young woman with who Nick begins a relationship.
As the summer

Where he then
meets Gatsby himself.
The next day when Nick
and Jordan were passing by Gatsby’s house, they discovered down the valley,
Gatsby’s car struck and killed Myrtle, Tom’s lover.
What is the
mystery behind Mr Gatsby?
Personal opinion: The story is complex and quite confusing in some parts.
I chose this book because it is shorter and easier
than other life-like stories that you can find.
I really enjoyed the progression of the story and the
relation between the characters. At the beginning the story is very monotonous
because it has a long introduction of the characters…But after a while it gets
very suspenseful.
Overall, it’s a nice book, but you have to like that
type of books.
Level: The vocabulary
of the book is average and hasn’t got a lot of difficult words
And the book is 218 pages long.
