Gatsby ch 1

Tom Buchanon: He is racist and bull-headed
"If we don't look out, the white race will be utterly submerged"

Daisy: She is a sad/ heartbroken romantic but she has an energetic personality that none can compare with.
"...the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool."

Jordan Baker-A dishonest gossiper.

"...and Miss Baker leaned forward unashamed, trying to hear..."

""You mean you don't know...Tom's got some woman in New York"

Nick Carraway: A judgemental, sarcastic, and very outspoken man

"...I was confused and disgusted as i drove away"

My first impression is that it's a book about Nicks dream to settle down; and have a laid back lifestyle. I think the writing style is very vivid, with lots of detail an imagery.
