Rating:  Summary: Son of the Mob Review: Son of the Mob, by Gordon Korman, is about a young boy who's father is one of the most respected men in the mob. Although having a father in the mob could be handy at some times, Vince hated it. And once Vince got involved, he couln't get out, and perhaps was going to lose true love and a life of his own. Son of the Mob was a book that made me realize what it can be like having people around you that you don't really know the truth about. It also made me realize that some people have people watching them and listening to them all the time every day, and maybe never knowing that nothing is personal in the mob. And sometimes the truth hurts, but you are going to find out some time but it is easier to find out in the begining. I think this book would be a great book to sit down and read.
Rating:  Summary: outstanding book Review: Son of the Mob, written by Gordan Korman was an outstanding book. Vince the main character, has never had much luck with relationships. This is all due to his father's "vending machine business." His luck finally turns his way when he meets the girl of his dreams. Read more to find out how Vince's social life is almost put to an end by his father's business.
This book was by far the best book I ever read in my life. I can honestly tell you I hate books. Although in this case I couldn't put the book down. Vince's relationships are a big thing in this because he has a hard time getting girls because of the "vending machine business", so he really has to trust the people he is with.
Rating:  Summary: An Excellent Book Review: Son of The Mob The Son of The Mob is a great book and I would recommend it to anyone. It's about a kid named Vince and his whole family is part of a mafia. That includes his father, his mother, his brother, and all of his uncles. Vince on the other hand, doesn't want to have any thing to do with the business. Vince has a best friend named Alex. Alex and Vince try to impress the girls at their school by doing weird things. Vince usually can get a girlfriend but his brother always messes it up for him. For instance, when he went on his first date, he took a girl to the beach for a pickneck. Turns out that his brother tied a guy up and threw him in the back of Vince's car with the pickneck blanket. When Vince joins the football team, he finds out that he's very good because the other team knows about his dads business. They don't want to hurt Vince because they are afraid of what Vince's dad might do to them if they do hurt Vince. Vince quits the football team when he finds out. Then he meets a girl named Kendra that works for the school newspaper. Vince and Kendra meet together a couple of times throughout the book. I rate this book at a **** star rating. By Gordon Korman

Rating:  Summary: Alexis is Great Review: The Son of the Mob is a good all around book. In the beginning it was a bit slow coming off with the "Vending-Machine Business" and Vince being involved. First scene is a The Rat is in the back of his trunk. And Vince is with this girl. He almost gets some. But the girl sees Jimmy Rat. That just kills his chance of getting laid all together. But later on he meets this new girl. Kendra, at first she came off as annoying, but he then leaerned that she was all that he could ever want. She plays a huge part in this book along with Vince and the Vending-Machine Business. Read the book its a very good enthusiastic, and fun book.
Rating:  Summary: Son of the mob Review: The son of the mob is about a 17 year old boy named Vince whose dad works in a vending machine business, but Vince wants nothing to do with it. Vince with his best friend Alex does everything together. Vince is doing a great job until on a date on night his brother put something in the business named Jimmy the Rat in his trunk. Even when he was trying to play football his dad's life got in the way because of a boy with big mouth. Weeks later Vince meets the love of his life named Kendra at a party that him and Alex went to together. While at the party Vince and Kendra end up making out. Vince finds out something about Kendra's father what he wishes he didn't know. Vince's life gets very complexed when his life and the vending machine crash into each other. The next thing Vince knows is that he is learning about his brother, his dad and even his mom. This books had many strengths such as good detail, you feel like you are in the book. It also does a good job describing things so you know what's going on and it looks like. In my eyes this book has know weaknesses. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes fiction.
Rating:  Summary: son of the mob was a great book Review: the son of the mod to me was a gripping thriller, about a young man named vince. he was in family that you could call anythnig but normal . they were the big mob family in new york city and vince was struggling to make a nmae for him self outside the family buiseness .he didnt want any part of the buiseness but how always found his way back into it over his head.
In my opinion son of the mob was a great book. It was an easy read and was something that captured the amagination of young teen age men i think it just stood out cuz it wasnt a 200 year old boring noval it was a book that could let kids think outside the box and use their amagination
Rating:  Summary: Son Of The Mob! Review: This book is about a boy named Vince Luca, and how he wants to stay out of his dads business, but ends up on a roller coaster ride that could change his love and his life. Vince joins a football team so ha can live somewhat of a normal life. Vince thinks its' pretty weird that nobody ever tackles him, and then it dawns on him. Everyone is afraid to tackle him because he's' a Luca. Vince wants his father to be like all the other dad, but can't except the fact that his father is in the "vending machine business." The Luca family has a bad reputation; you see his father (a.k.a. Honest Abe Luca) is in the "Vending Machine Business," so really you never know if your birthday present was stolen, or if one of your' so called "uncles," have killed someone. If you guessed mob, you're correct. Mr.Luca is in a mob, well actually he owns one. Everything is going down hill for Vince, until he meets Kendra. Vince finds out that Kendra's' Father (a.k.a. Agent Bite Me) is an F.B.I. agent that records everthything going on at the Luca house! Will they keep their love life a secret? This book, in my opinion is full of action, romance, and a little bit of suspense. This book is a kind of book you're never going to be able to put down. You can't predict anything in this book its' kind of like a Spielberg movie. Vince will keep you asking for more. THE QUESTION IS WILL THERE BE A SEQUAL? Go to your local library and ask for "Son Of The Mob!
