Welp, I'm in the minority but I don't think this is sweet. It's pathetic. If you were too young to handle an ending of that nature, your sister should have picked something age appropriate.

I'm kind of baffled that you'd call something like that pathetic but then I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

OP doesn't say how old their sister was then (or exactly how old they were, for that matter). If sister was a young teen, I wouldn't expect her to necessarily be as concerned about age appropriateness as about wanting to share a story she loved, with a thoughtful edit for her sibling.

When I was little, my parents and I always watched The Sound of Music up until the wedding and then my mom said 'the end.' I didn't see the second part for several years, but I'm happy I got to enjoy the first part during that time instead of waiting until the entire movie was 'age appropriate.' Different things are right for different people (and different kids) but I would hardly call OP's story "pathetic."

Pathetic? Really? That seems like nonsense.

People come to stories through Bowdlerised, abridged, or otherwise softened versions all the time. Disney movies, Lambs Tales from Shakespeare, extracts used in readers for English class, Wishbone - her sister was doing the same thing.

It might be an odd way of experiencing Gatsby, but there's no one right way of coming to a work of literature, and her sister evidently knew OP well enough to know what parts would bring her lasting enjoyment and where to go off book.

I'm sticking with 'sweet'.
