Lit. Circle

Today we had our first Lit. circle meeting for the book The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. We were discussing the first five chapters and it went surprisingly well. The reason I use the word "suprisingly" is because every other time I have been in a Lit. circle it have been either horribly awkward because nobody wants to give there opinion, or no one has read the book, or two people talk while the rest listen. This group is not like that at all. Everyone gave opinions and input, and we asked and discussed some really good questions. We made predictions on what we thought would happen in situations like with Tom and Daisy, and Gatsby and Daisy, and we discussed the importance of Jordans character, and of the billboard and the green light and why people are the way they are and why they do the things they do. Over all it was productive.
