GG Ch. 1

The first person that we meet in this book is Nick Carraway. He is a young man about 20 years old. He went to fight in the "Great War" which is WWI. He says that he really liked fighting over that and that his life seemed almost boring when he came back. When he gets back he decides to learn to be a bondsman. He was going to get a house with another guy but at the last second the other guy backed out. But he still got the house and he also got a dog. Then he was invited to his cousin Daisy's house because she didn't live far away. So he goes and realizes that Daisy's husband has another woman that he is seeing up in New York. He meets this Jordan Baker girl that i think he has a thing for because he kind of talks a lot about her. Then he goes home and is sitting outside of his house and sees who he thinks to be Mr. Gatsby for the first time.
i think that he is a very good person. One of the things he does is not judge people and i think that that is a very good quality to have. i also think that he likes the Jordan girl because he talks about her and says that he kind of likes her. I think that he doesn't know what to think about his cousin's situation with her husband.
