-->In mi opinion the most striking moments in the story were both in chapter 7:
1- When Tom cofirmed that Gatsby and Daisy were in love. It's superb when it says "She had told him that she loved him, and Tom Buchanan saw. He was astounded. His mouth opened a little, and he looked at Gatsby, and then back at Daisy as if he had just recognized her as some one he knew a long time ago".
2- I love the row they had at the Plaza Hotel because of the "polite" way they had to fight. But the best thing was when Tom says "I suppose the latest thing is to sit back and let Mr. Nobody from Nowhere make love to your wife".

-->While I was reading the novel as I usually do, I was trying to speculate with the end. But of course, it was completely unexpected! Even though, my last "risky" prediction wasn't totally wrong, in a way Tom and Daisy had gone away the day after the row and the same day Gatsby died.. Besides, I thought of the bad qualities the characters had (dishonest, unreliable, interested only in money) and the way they spent their lives without any objective in life.

-->The text made me think about my own life. It made me reflect on the things I have and especially in my blessings, that it doesn't matter if you are a millionaire but it's necessary to be happy and to have goals in life. I think that if you don't have to fight for anything and whatever you want is on a silver platter, then you don't treasure your possessions or even people that love you.

--> The question I would ask the writer if I got the chance is: Why did you decide to make Daisy so weak in personality? 
I thought she would make a difference... I was not expecting a happy ending but a woman with conviction.
