Chapters 8 & 9

Chapter 8:
     So.. in chapter eight it was pretty crazy. First of Gatsby is telling Nick how him and Daisy were before war ended. He was telling him how they made love and how they promised to wait and marry eachother after war. Well that didnt happen. I thought it was cute how he said that she was the first girl he ever felt that close to. Well anyways, Gatsbys gardner interupts Nick and Gatsby and says he will be sraing the pool. Gatsby stops him and says no because he had never used the pool. Now he wants to go for a swim. Then nick leaves. I thought it was sad when nick was destracted at work and he refused to go on a date with Jordan Baker. Then the story gets changed back to Myrtle. This is were it all starts. Wilson hears about who hit her and he goes and gives Gatsby a visit. Well Gatsby ends up being shot by Wilson while he was lying in the pool and then Wilson turns the gun on himself and kills himself too. Then nick hurrys back to the west egg to find that Gatsby is dead. This was sad that he died. :/
Chapter 9:
     In chapter nine it was about Gatsbys funeral. I think it was really nice for Nick to try to throw him a huge funeral.. but that didnt work out. I think it was mean when Tom and DAISY didnt show up! I mean hes dead , why couldnt they just show up. Very few people came to his funeral. Then Nick goes off and is moving back to Minnesota and decides to break away from Jordan Baker. Before he moves he runs into Tom and Tom tell him that Gatsby deserved to die and that he told Wilson about the car hitting Myrtel. I dont think that was very nice of tom and I do like how Nick says that Tom and Daisy are carless and uncaring people who ruin things and people. Im glad Nick s moving away from Daisy and Tom because I think they just created drama throughout this book.
