Extensive Reading + Outline .. A Twist.. The Great Gatsby
After getting my book a few days ago "The Great Gatsby", I finished reading the 1st chapter of it where the characters of the books are introduced. And in the attached pic I'm afraid that's where I'm supposed to have written the outline which is not really clear (not even close).
I can say that what surprised me so far about the book is simply the way the author writes, I've never read anything in my life that's written in such a great academic, literary and an elegant way.
The way he gives a special touch to each character and the way he introduces the characters is simply magnificent.
The Great Gatsby (pp. 1-21). (n.d.).

This is why he's such a popular writer! I had to read this book in high school, and things you are forced to read aren't often as enjoyable as ones you choose to read. Maybe I should try it again, based on your review! I think your outline is helpful in terms of reminding yourself what is important so far about each character . What would make it even more helpful would be to add page numbers for each piece of information. That way you could refer back to it when you wanted to.
