The Great Gatsby - Tumblr Posts - Page 2
It takes two to make an accident.
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby (via thelovejournals)
The wrecks that were left, could it been my fault as well, when all i wanted was you but you didn’t anymore?
The Great Gatsby is hilarious because the general impression I get from it is "also he's gay but don't you f***** mention anything about it or else I'll break your legs"
The craziest plot twist ever in The Great Gatsby happened at least once every chapter
i’ve been trying to explain this to my ap lang class but not a single person has read the secret history
UPDATE: in college now writing an essay about how tsh should be accepted into the Canon™️ and one of my points is how Richard & Henry’s relationship so closely mirrors Nick & Gatsby’s and i haven’t been this fired up abt an essay in ages
and what if I said richard was nick and henry was his gatsby
dog nicknames are always like “goodest boi” or “sweetie pie” or “lil floofy” but here is a list of things i call my fish on a regular basis:
- My Son
- old sport
- sport
- little guy
- sir
- child of divorce
EDIT: thanks for all the love on this, Holden died in February but every time i get notified for this it makes me happy to know how appreciated he is.
and what if I said richard was nick and henry was his gatsby
he’s so real
Started reading the Great Gatsby and I dunno if the rest of the book is like this, but the first chapter is so funny because Tom is like "colored people are taking over America!!!! We need to defend the superior race!!!!" and Daisy is like "Yeah, life fucking SUCKS man I hope my kid is fuckin stupid so she doesn't have to deal with this shit" and Mrs. Baker is like "bro did you hear that Tom is cheating on Daisy? Yeah, their marriage is in fuckin SHAMBLES" and Nick reacts to literally all of this with nothing more than "huh. Weird. Anyways."
"mutuals can ask for discord" mutuals can haunt me after they die. mutuals can paint my immortal youth in a cursed portrait. mutuals can build a 8ft tall creature in my college dorm. mutuals can watch me wake up as a monstrous vermin. mutuals can feed me soup after i commit murder. mutuals can help me kill uncle claudius. mutuals can go out with me and my girlfriend from across the bay. mutuals can hunt the beast with me. do better
Wtf jay and nick are so gay help😭 (they had literally one conversation)
I feel like gatsby has a suit for each holiday, season and random event
Just finished the great gatsby
Im not ok
I feel like i lost a friend, but all ive lost is jay gatsby
"Show, dont tell" is one of the most famous rules is writing
In the great gatsby we've been told jay's in love with daisy, but the characters showed us that actually nick and gatsby should make out, live together and have 3 dogs
Never ignore your characters's wishes
Jay Gaysby and Nick Carragay 😊‼️‼️
