Hi, do you have any favorite character(s) in Godfather?
For me...Luca Brasi, his replacement later on in the story (the police officer guy) and Jules the doctor.
Btw, if you didn't notice while reading - when a person dies the book always mentions how they $hit on themselves
due to the body no longer working

I'm not a fan of books, but i respect people who actually spends some of their time reading books. I hardly knows anyone who reads books anymore. People worried about too much garbage going around these days, to even bother to read a book. I did manage to read a book about the story of an elite army group called "Tiger Force" committing atrocities while operating in Vietnam, during the Vietnam War.
To tell you the truth i've only read 1/3 through it. I don't read alot, as you can tell. Tiger Force is probrally the only books that i read since middle school!
