Son of the Mob/Gordon Korman/262 pages

Gordon Korman has a great sense of humor and always appeals to a wide range of readers. In "Son of the Mob", Korman has created a fast paced, witty novel about friendship, family and romance. Vince wants nothing to do with the "family business", he wants to be like any other high school guy, but it's hard when your father is the head of a powerful crime organization and your girlfriend's father is the tenacious FBI agent that has been hunting him down for years. This book has it all, mobsters that run coffee shops and strip joints, bodies in the trunk on the first date and a mafia mom that rivals June Cleaver!
