Al Capone Shines My Shoes by Gennifer Choldenko
5.0
[review written 2011]
I read the prequel to Al Capone Shines My Shoes last time I visited Alcatraz, which was two years ago. But I found the sequel in my school library, and of course had to read it. This book was really good. As I said, I can’t compare it to the previous installment in the series, but it was still fantastic as a stand-alone book.
Piper did seem a little bit bipolar in the book, though, and there were so many characters I got confused. But that might just be me. All in all, it was a fabulous read, quick as well, and I recommend it to any history-lovers. Capone does make more than one appearance in this book so if you’re interested in that…
