I Am Ella, Buy Me Blog Tour

Stars:4  from Ginger Reader

Ella is a woman stuck in a mans world.

It’s the 80′s and Ella is currently working as a copywriter under the watchful (read: leering) eye of Peter Richards. It’s a cut throat world she’s in and when she faces the reality that she might lose her job Peter proposes (threatens) an ‘arrangement’. All Ella wants is to keep her job and stay out of Peters (STD filled) bed.

With the help of her dear friend Adam, who knows the industry and Wally the caretaker who always knows what to say, Ella does everything she can to climb her way to the top while keep her self respect.

In a time before human resources and sexual harassment lawsuits Ella learns how to handle herself and the men in the workplace, taking their snide comments and inappropriate remarks with a grain of sand.

I really enjoyed Ella’s story, I’m sure it’s not a shock that Wally was my favourite character, I loved how he was a complete 180 from the rest of the men in her office and how he was always there when she needed someone.

It was a quick read but one that rang true in every aspect and for that reason I’m sure it will stick with you long after the last page.
