“We passed a barrier of dark trees, and then the façade of Fifty-ninth Street, a block of delicate pale light, beamed down into the park…and so I drew up the girl beside me, tightening my arms” (Fitzgerald 80). I chose this quote because it shows how the relationship between Nick and Jordan evolves into something more than friendship which is serious considering the way that Nick was describing her.
The thing I liked the most about this chapter was how we got a glimpse into Nick and Jordan’s future romance, which I’m hoping will take some part in the story because I ship it. I also really like how the story is going along because we finally get to see the first interaction between Tom and Gatsby and I thought it was interesting how Tom had no idea who Gatsby was, but Gatsby knew who Tom was because he knew that he was married to Daisy.
