Son of the Mob by Gordon Korman


Great book with a clever twist on Romeo and Juliet. Vince is the son of a mob boss and Kendra is the daughter of the FBI agent who is trying to put him away. Obviously this causes problems. Son of the Mob is filled with humorous situations that will keep kids rolling, as well as great moral messages.

This is one of Gordon Korman's few young adult novels, so keep that in mind when choosing this book. It isn't your average Korman book. However despite the references to things occuring in high school, both vince and Kendra are good kids, and make good decisions.
