Cynthia Acevedo: I just finished reading it and it was such a good story. I can't wait to get started in the next one. I've never seen the movie, so that's next on my list

Lisa: I understand this book has been around a long time, so as for dated whatever. It a book a great book. I love this book, it is so good. That being said when reviewing a book how about we just keep it to you like or not, what condition the book was in. These long winded reviews that are basically a book report, you can just keep it to yourself. It also spoils the story for others. No one is going to read a review that long anyway. Just stop.

Amazon Customer: Este livro é para quem procura um livro com muita ação, e informações historicas sobre a criação da máfia nos EUA pelos descendentes de imigrantes Italianos. É um livro que prende a atenção desde o inicio. Se você consegue ler livros em Inglês recomendo a compra em Inglês pois é mais barato, mas se voce não consegue ler o livro em Inglês pode adquirir a versão traduzida.

Mexico on Jun 18, 2022

Amazon Customer: . . . Is precisely what this book does! I admit that the only reason I picked up this book is to know the real story, before the movie narrated it - and I just couldn’t put it down! The perfect book to read all day long when your plans are thwarted by a heavy unseasonal downpour ? Not quite. This book, IS the plan!

L. McClanahan: TL;DR: a good read, if not entirely to my taste.

(SPOILERS AHEAD - READER, BEWARE!) I love stories about the Mafia. From the families depicted on Law and Order to true crime documentaries, I love it all. Being a film buff as well, I wanted to see the Coppola classic The Godfather, but I felt like I should read the source material first. What Puzo excels at is realism. The majority of his characters feel very human, with all of the virtues and faults you'd expect in a novel with such a large cast. His descriptions of sex are passionate and deliciously reverent, and the moments where he allows himself to be less prosy are splendidly vibrant. He also makes characters with different (or non-existent) moral codes compelling. For example, I was very invested in and entertained by Sonny Corleone, though he's not a person I'd like in real life, and his death was one of my least favorite pieces of the story.

Some of the weaknesses in the novel, I feel, are the somewhat clumsy integration of Puzo's sociopolitical and moral philosophy into the narrative, and an occasionally meandering plot. The first of those happens most often through large monologues of either Don Corleone...
