But soon war looms, and Sunny joins the navy to train as a signaller. After the horrors of the May vlitz, Polly too decides she wants to help her country and goes into the WRNS.

Customer Reviews

Excellent sequel
Polly's Angel is an excellent follow-up to Strawberry Fields. When i finished reading Strawberry Fields i was at a loose end because i just wanted to follow Polly and Tads lives into adulthood and when i found this sequel i was so pleased and katie Flynn does not fail to impress.

A good book but but sill disappointed
When I first started to read this book I found that it took a while for me to get into the story. But I liked the fact that she had based the book on a previous book, and the way got to see different sides of the characters. I found this book took a little while in getting into it, but once I got reading I enjoyed reading it, even if I did feel a bit disappointed.

First Read
This was the first Katie Flynn book I have read. I must admit I struggled with it until I got about half way through. I didn't get to grips with the "Angel" part of it until I was well into the book. I loved the Liverpool/Dublin connection. I will try more of her books and certainly won't let this one put me off.
