Having a kick like the best hot sauce, this is actually the laugh-out-loud tale of a girl determined to keep up with her maturing, crazy-as-a-fox mother. Willow Havens is 10 years old and enthusiastic about the fear that her mother will pass away. Her mother, Polly, is a cantankerous, take-no-prisoners Southern woman who lives to run after varmints, drink margaritas, and antagonize the neighbors - and she shines such as a sore thumb one of the young, modern moms of these small conventional Texas town. She was at her overdue 50s when Willow was created, so Willow is aware of she's here unintentionally, a late-life afterthought. Willow's dad died before she was created, her much more mature sibling and sister are long harvested and eliminated and failing anywhere else. It's just her and bigger-than-life Polly. Willow is frantically hungry for hints to the family life that preceded her, and especially Polly's life pre-Willow. Why did she leave her hometown of Bethel, Louisiana, 50 years ago and vow never to return? Who's Garland Jones, her long-ago suitor who possibly killed a man? And will Polly have the ability to outrun the Carry, the condition that finally places her on the collision course with her former? The E book of Polly has a great blend of laughter and sadness, pathos and hilarity. That is a bittersweet novel about the hold of love in a truly quirky family, and you'll come to learn one of the most remarkable mother-daughter duos you've ever before met.
