Great Gatsby Journals Journal #1 Pick a major character from chapter 1 (Nick, Daisy, Tom, or Jordan). What contemporary celebrity (or a person in your life) do they remind you of? Draw your own conclusion, and establish as many parallels between Fitzgerald’s character and the ‘real’ celebrity as you can.
Journal #2 Nick thinks he's one of the few honest people he knows, why? Do you think he is honest? Why? What about some of the other characters: Daisy? Gatsby? Tom? Myrtle? Could Nick be right?
Journal #3 Chapter 7 is a pivotal chapter – many hidden secrets come to light. What is a possible “happy” solution to the situation the characters are in? Is there anything that can be done by these characters to make things right, or at least better than before?
