The Great Gatsby Pgs. 49-60

Nothing huge happened in this section of The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald. We met Gatsby, but we still don't really know him. We have heard all sorts of rumors about Gatsby, but do not know which are true, and which are false. At this point, I'm still wondering what Gatsby's significance is. I wonder how he will impact the story. We also met a character who was just hanging out in Gatsby's study, checking out his books for a while. Later, he gets into an accident where a wheel comes off of a car. I found this man fairly interesting. It seems as if Nick and Miss Baker are becoming a couple, from meeting at Daisy's, to going on dates together. I wonder where this romance will lead. Fitzgerald writes "I'd been writing letters once a week and signing them: love Nick..." (Fitzgerald 58). Nick writes in his letters that he loves her, with his closing. I'm wondering when the main conflict will begin, and for that part, what it will be.
