Today we started off class with the question which part of the book did you focus on. East egg, To/ from NYC or NYC
Our task was to interpret our assigned sections  and fine a high and low points of certain characters. My group focused on what happened when in New York City  . The main character of this section are Gatsby, Daisy and Tom. in the heat of the chapter the reader finally get the Tom, Gatsby duel that was just bound to happen. The truth finally comes boiling to the top and  Gatsby & Tom engage in a screaming match covering everything from Gatsby’s secret  income flow to Daisy’s affection towards both men. In this chapter we find that Nick is playing more of a spectator rather than a vocal narrator. Another event that happen at the end of the chapter was the death of Myrtle. She was killed by a hit and run driver. Tom and learns that the car that killed Myrtle was in fact Gatsby’s yellow car. When Nick confront Gatsby about the car, Gatsby admits that Daisy was the one driving. Let the record show that all day the characters were drinking non stop throughout the day.
