The Book of Polly by Kathy Hepinstall wasn't really for me. I got it because the description made it sound funny and maybe a little whimsical with a mystery thrown in there for good measure. No, not really... not any of those really. Sure, there was a bit of a mystery surrounding Polly's past but it wasn't incredibly intriguing. There was no real humor in it at all. It's just simply about a girl coming of age with an older-than-normal mother. That's it. If you can relate to that, then you might enjoy this book. It IS well written. I will give it that. That was really it's only saving grace, so to speak. Becuase it was well written, I give it 3 out of 5 stars. Otherwise, it would have been no more than a 2.
