Love, Marriage, and final thoughts

After reading this chapter there were a lot of things that annoyed me. First, this chapter was very depressing, especially Gatsby's funeral" About five o'clock our procession of three cars reached the cemetery and stopped in a thick drizzle..."( Fitzgerald 174) Gatsby having thrown all these parties, and all these business connections, a person would think he would have some friends or just ANYONE who loved him. But sadly this was not the case. The only people who actually cared for him and showed up at his funeral, were Nick and his father. Not even Daisy showed up! But then again I'm not entirely sure if Daisy ever found out that he had died. Nick had tried to contact them, but the butler had said that both she and tom left with luggage. This was another thing that bothered me. If Daisy Truly loved Gatsby like she had said, then she would have left Tom. She would have  gone to his funeral, or better yet she could have saved his life.However, she chose to stay with Tom. She chose to continue her superficial life, and fake love, instead of the loyal and true love of Gatsby. The only people who TRULY cared were Nick and his father.Now Gatsby's father, I think, was not entirely in reality. I think he was in a sort of denial stage. At one point he kept talking about a picture of the house his son had sent him. It seemed that the picture was the reality and reality was the dream. I don't think he could truly believed that his son was dead. It was easier for him to just stare at the picture.  Now, after reading this entire book, I have to say that I actually really enjoyed it. I loved the drama, the mystery behind Gatsby himself, even the little strange and non-important characters like Wilson and Owl-Eyes. I just really enjoyed everything about this book. I would honestly recommend this book to anyone and everyone.
