(2) Written Reflection On Book Choice

The reason I have chosen to read this book is because it seems to be a classic. I read a summary of the book that stated “the novel tells the tragic story of Jay Gatsby, a self-made millionaire, and his pursuit of Daisy Buchanan, a wealthy young woman whom he loved in his youth”. I was instantly intrigued because I wondered if their love would still be the same after they had inevitably changed so much after growing up. They say money changes people and I wanted to know if that was the case for Gatsby as well. In addition to this, the book is also very highly rated on multiple websites and forums.
