Status Updates From The Sicilian

So only once we get back to Turi's POV for the second time is he encouraged to start documenting all his deals and political actions. Which means the NEAR 200 PAGES of "set-up" for Turi is basically unnecessary filler. It's at least half the fucking book and yet we've just established that the only IMPORTANT and DOCUMENT WORTHY things he does happen at page 260.

I WANT TO SCREAM.

And just like that, they take Michael back away from me again.

I'm finally back to Michael. Turi is interesting enough (as if the very obvious Baron Harkonnen-esque mafia boss), this part really drags in comparison. I can't put my finger on it--the Godfather was also laden with paused asides to explain mob-terminiology or some random tidbit about Sicily--but this one seems so much more halting.
