Book: The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Length: 189 pages
Read: pgs. 56-66

As Nick is leaving the party, everyone is looking at a car who's wheel got amputated in a crash.
He then reveals how Jordan Baker is a dishonest person, and a horrible driver.
"But I am slow thinking and full of interior rules that act as brakes on my desires, and I knew that first I had to get myself definitely out of that tangle back home."

"Everyone suspects himself of at least one of the cardinal virtues, and this is mine: I am one of the few honest people that I have ever known."
