The Godfather

as promised, a review about the book that i just finished read: The Godfather by Mario Puzo...

so, like any other review, give a little bit of synopsis abt the book...the story was about a very powerful italian mafia organisation or family as they prefer it to be called, at new york. the corleone family. which lead by the ever respected man don vito corleone and one can ever step him. he got all the lawyers n politicians inside his pocket. but things start to get nasty when the tattlgia family (tattalgia ka ap,yg pntg ad tt la nma fmly tu) tries to kill the don coz he didn't agree with the drug business. thus, creating a BIG war between the families. thats where the fun begins.

positive side:
-wonderful portrayal of the mafia world
-when u read, u cn actaully pcture how powerful the don n the fmly is..seriously...
-nothing more 2 say, its just perfect

negative:
-i cn't see any ngtve side of the book,haha..mybe the part where puzo's like to sometimes tells about the past of some incident which to me to be anti-climatic coz like for xample when i was reading abt Sonny's cnflict thn all of the sdden puzo rewinds us bck 2  sme of the hstory of the fmly...but then, he done it beautifully..guess that cancelled out my previous coment abt it. in cnclusion? no ngative cment,haha

overall:
4.5/5


p/s:currntly im reading Wikileaks:Inside Julian Assange 's War on Secrecy...also an interesting book..so far...
