"One of Choldenko's many strengths is her grasp of the historically accurate language and setting ... an enjoyable, stand-alone sequel."

"Gennifer Choldenko's 2004 novel, Al Capone Does My Shirts, was such a perfect book, it was hard to imagine a sequel. . . . Perhaps the most astonishing accomplishment of Al Capone Shines My Shoes is that Choldenko audaciously introduces us to the legendary Al Capone and gives him flesh and spirit of a very human kind."

“Gennifer Choldenko is in her element in this story. It’s so masterfully told that it seems effortless and completely believable.”
