The Sicilian
Posted on: January 6, 2013
This is a book I just finished reading yesterday.
My remarks? “CAPTIVATING”
I love happy endings but I’m a sucker for thrillers, suspense and twists, this book had it all!
Forgive me, I’m not trying to hype or anything, this book just left me in awe and I thought I should share.
It’s a book by ‘Mario Puzo’ the author of The Godfather Series and is a sequel to the Godfather.
Now I’m wondering why I didn’t know about Mario Puzo all this while. And why nobody made me read his other books. I’m deeply hurt because I feel as if I’ve carried the ultimate last. When I updated about it, people started telling me how they read his books in secondary school. What was I doing with my life in secondary school? No wonder I’m not cool.
Anyways, I learnt from this book that you can’t trust anyone. Not a living soul. Also, friendship is a myth.
When I Wiki’d the book, I found out that it was based on real life people in Italy. Now I’m more interested.
If you are a sucker for thrillers and a JJC like me and you haven’t read this book please cop a copy and try to eliminate all bias from my hype. Also, don’t wiki it until you’re done reading; It’ll only spoil it for you.
*exhales*
Step aside John Grisham, Puzo’s in town.
*Skips to Yaba to purchase other Puzo books*
PS. John Grisham is still the man after my heart. Puzo is just the side chick.

Couldn’t finish after a friend told me he died, I loved the character too much to let him go, so I dropped the book 😦

Read it a quarter way, then stopped. Over a year now. Guess I’ll try finishing then.
