Son of the Mob

De: Gordon Korman

Narrado por: Max Casella

A reluctant Mafia prince...

Vince Luca is just like any other high school guy. His best friend, Alex, is trying to score vicariously through him; his brother is a giant pain; and his father keeps bugging him to get motivated. There is just one thing that really sets him apart for other kids - his father happens to be the head of a powerful crime organization.

Needless to say, while Vince's family's connections can be handy for certain things (like when teachers are afraid to give him a bad grade), they can put a serious crimp in his dating life. Who wants to explain to your girlfriend what your father does for a living? But when Vince meets a girl who finally seems to be worth the trouble, her family turns out to be the biggest problem of all. Because her father is an FBI agent - the one who has been watching Vince's family for years, and who wants to put his father away for good.

That was the best!!

The narrator was amazing! He couldn't have done a better job if he was Christopher Walken. The story line was incredible from the beginning. Oh and don't even get me started on the ending. Must read/listen!!!

YA mafia rom com

I read this book forever ago when I was in high school. I'm now in my thirties and had this vague memory of this book I read and remembered enjoying. It is wildly dated, with cassette tapes and the early days of the internet (it takes place in 2002) but it's still a good read. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and listened to the whole thing in a day.

wish there were more

excellent book, there I a second one, but not available for audio book. bummer it's a great start could have been a great series

Memory Lane

I remember reading this book when I was in middle school. I was 13 or 14 years old. The way I remember it was somewhat. Much like Vince, I too hid away secrets from people I cared about. Reading it now, over 5 years later, I honestly think I tried too much to think that I was Vince. I love the humor of the story the same way I did in middle school.

Memory Lane

I read this book in junior high and I loved it ever cents I will continue to listen and read this book at any chance I can

Such a great book!

I love this book, its so funny and well written 😂. I love the voice of the main character it adds depth to the book. I was laughing so hard though out this story it has great characters, humour, and dialogue!!!!!

The ending stood out the most to me.

I liked all the drama between Vince and Anthony, and all the romantic sections between Vince and Kendra.
