I thought this was an amazing book. I know some people said this was book was redundant and felt really slow paced but I feel like the pacing of the book was in line with how both Don Corleone’s acted. They were meticulous and didn’t say things before their time and the book did that so well. I now see why so many people consider this a classic because the messages of family loyalty, power and greed stood the test of time and it was brilliant seeing it all unravel. I will be recommending this book to so many people and I’ll make sure to let them know it’s a book they cannot refuse.
