The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald has alot of stuff that can be misinterpreted by the reader because of the fact that it is not from a universal kind of narrator view but its from a characters own thought and views, in this case would be Nick Carraway. All his thought, emotions, and feelings are taken into account as the narration of the book, so whatever he sees and tells us his thought about it, it might either be a misconception on his part or the actual truth, so we cant really know when to trust him or not, which make you think about everything in the book while Nick is describing it. Can what Nick is telling us be trusted? With this in mind while reading the story, it brings about some thinking because some ideas that are just blatantly showing themselves but Nick wont have a clue about what is to happen. An example of this was when "Daisy and Tom were sitting opposite each other at the kitchen table, with a plate of cold fried chicken between them, and two bottles of ale. He was talking intently across the table at her, and in his earnestness his hand had fallen upon and covered her own. Once in a while she looked up at him and nodded in agreement.They weren't happy, and neither of them had touched the chicken or the ale — and yet they weren't unhappy either. There was an unmistakable air of natural intimacy about the picture, and anybody would have said that they were conspiring together." (p.145 Chapter 7) Even though Nick can sense the air with that intimacy he has no idea that they are actually conspiring against Gatsby to take the blame or Myrtles death, while he thinks that they are just secret lovers in a way. Because of this kind of setting though, we also get a glimpse of what Nick thinks, and it cant be false because it is his own thoughts so we know exactly what is going on inside Nick's head, no matter the circumstances. In general, The Great Gatsby is a very good book with much drama and detail and was a very enjoyable book.
