I think this could have been a very jarring book had I not seen the movie Goodfellas so many times I practically have it memorized. As with the Godfather book/film, Goodfellas is an extremely faithful representation of Wiseguy. As many people have pointed out previously, what sets this book apart is the outright bluntness in the delivery. It wastes no time trying to water the cold, hard facts down or romanticize the lifestyle of a mafioso. We're talking about people who would murder their best friends and probably not feel too guilty about it afterward. It's a very chilling thought and it makes Henry's desire to want to be a part of the life absolutely mystifying. This is a well-written, no-nonsense book that holds the reader by the throat from start to finish.

It's a funny exciting story, I want to try to do it... You'll get what I mean when you read this book.
