[grammar] characteristics of each
Dear Users,
Would you please look at the sentence below and tell me if it makes sense? Something seems to be missing there, but I'm not quite sure what it is.
Both Gatsby and Tom have similarities and differences. Also, both of them have positive and negative characteristics of each.
I wonder if the author of these words meant to say of each other?
Thanks
