Chp 9: Rapping it up

There's lots of surprising things that led up to this chapter. There is also lots of things that is in this chapter. I found out that Gatsby's parents weren't dead. His father, Mr. Gatz, is very old but still alive. I noticed that Mr. Gatz kept referring Gatsby as "Jimmy". I feel like there is more things about Gatsby that is unknown and that he didn't tell the full truth about his personal life. Overall, I enjoyed the book because it was full of action, drama, curiosity, and mystery. Every chapter had more details and got more interesting. One of the main importance of this book is Gatsby's american dream. I think that his american dream was to get things back where they were before he went to war and live this perfect new life with Daisy. His dream wasn't accurate because things can never be how it use to be;It could be better or worse but never the same. Gatsby did everything he could to achieve his american dream, but the result that came out of it was a dead Gatsby with no Daisy.
