My favorite 10
I like reading books since I was a child. I have ever read a lot of books, and I have a lot of favorite books. I cannot decide what book is the best, but if I am forced to say something, I think it is "Harry Potter." This is a fantasy novel and children's literature in the UK. It is written the perpetrator who killed and school life of the boy Harry Potter, the parents of Harry, and the fight fate with the witch of Voldemort. When I read this in junior high school for the first time, I felt excited very much. I have ever tried to read them in English when I was a high school student. In addition, I like japanese novels. I often read books written by Keigo Higashino. He is famous for "Galileo Series," and he is good at making mystery and suspense stories.
The Great Gatsby
I saw the movie "The Great Gatsby" in class of a history of American literature, and told that the students hand in the reports after reading the book which was interpret to japanese or English. I read the book in the library of university, so I want to write my thoughts of this book.
In the novel which Scott Fizgerald wrote, "The Great Gatsby," the light of the American society and the portion of a shadow which have boiled in prosperity are projected. The American dream taken up as a theme of this movie is a trend of if there is even gold, and is language like the symbol of the American of those days who fancies passing people who rose to well-off circles, and days which are filled by gold.
The hero Gatsby in this movie is avaricious into gold, if it is for filling a desire, it is a man who does not regret a means, either, and although it is officially the gay world as a view of the world of a movie, if the reverse side is seen, it is man's essence and the bad portion has projected. Although Gatsby was poor at the time of childhood, it attained to build hundreds of wealth by operation of sly grog sale and a stock market. He who is devoted to a party in the palatial residence of a house, and was able to rise to well-off circles at last may just be able to call life those successful every day.

However, he has not forgotten the woman Daisy of a first love.
It did not obtain, even if only Daisy passed till when to have got used to the multimillionaire whom everyone envies at last. Gatsby might make Daisy his own thing, but it was opposed to the husband Tom of Daisy, and the millionaire is widely different. It becomes desperate, and Daisy is persuaded and regret which is not obtained can see only adhering to Daisy so much, or Daisy, considering the scene which quarrels with Tom.
If it takes into consideration about the relation of Gatsby and the American dream anew here now, Gatsby can be called regrettable man who was not able to achieve the dream of the American dream.
While adhering to Daisy, and what it can say that the field in which he does not leave a first love is purehearted, finally it is killed by a gun, and it is shown how the scene which closes the whole life unsatisfying is in a human being with foolish him. With the American dream in Gatsby, although it became a millionaire of course, it would be able to fulfill Daisy by making it one's thing. Probably, Gatsby also changed the future, without having found whether it would be killed or a tale finishing, if she returned to the basis of Gatsby instead of Tom.
After reading, I thought what is the life. It is not just looking forward to the life. I think this story makes us consider well. I don't know what is the life and living, but I want to search a lot of thing living my own life.
