m3lusina 's review for:

The Godfather by Mario Puzo
3.0
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No

The story was alright. however, the narrative is incredibly sexist and racist. The description of sex and women in general is appalling. Some points just felt like I was reading a “straight alpha male” fantasy. This impression only intensified as the story developed. The description of women is so vile you’d think the author never interacted with one his whole life. If you enjoyed this book because you see it as a "peak portrayal of masculinity," please seek immediate help.
