TLC Blog Tour for "Walking With Elephants" by Karen S Bell

Walking With Elephants by Karen S Bell is an absolute delightful read! This book is a wonderful and fun tribute to all the modern women who work outside the home and still hold the family together at home!

Suze Hall is a wife, a mother of three, and holds down a full time job as an associate editor at a book publisher. Life is stressful enough, but then suddenly one day there are major changes at work and it becomes like her worst nightmare. Then her husband decides to take on a special work project and her world turns upside down! Her already stressful world is suddenly piled with more stress and she feels like she's having a breakdown!

I very highly recommend this book! It's really well written and so very funny! I could relate to Suze from the very beginning and immediately liked her and we pulling for her the whole way through. You'll be laughing out loud, but I think you'll really be able to relate to Suze and some of what she's going through. It's a fairly short read, and it's upbeat and will lift your spirits. Suze is tough and she's got a good heart and I found her to be a very inspiring character! It's a great book for us gals who are stressed out and need a lift!

(For my blog readers who only read Christian books, this one is not a Christian fiction title.)

Book Summary:

Suze Hall is at a crossroads. Her nemesis at work, Wanda, has been promoted and now will be her boss. Her husband, Bob, is leaving her and the three kids for a six-month sabbatical down under. To top it off, her best friend, Marcia, is missing in action–playing footsie with some new boyfriend!

Adding to this disaster stew, David, the gorgeous hunk who broke her young-girl’s heart, has coincidentally popped back into her life and has something she desperately needs to keep her job.

Walking with Elephants, a lighthearted slice-of-life story, brings to the table the serious work/family issues facing women today. It explores the modern dichotomy of a workplace that is filled with homemakers who still must cook, clean, carpool on nights and weekends, shop for prom dresses, and “create” the holidays—such as Suze. But it also is filled with women who have the same drive as men, have no family responsibilities, and will do whatever it takes to get ahead.

So step into the shoes of Suze Hall and commiserate over workplace politics, titillate your sexual fantasies, ride the wave of a working mother, and fall-down laughing.

Author Bio:

Walking with Elephants is my first novel, although I am not new to writing. I was a theater critic and celebrity interviewer for a weekly tabloid in Jacksonville, Fl and I earned a Master’s in Mass Communication from Oklahoma State University. For 15 years I was an editor/writer at a major accounting firm. I also was a technical editor for an accounting magazine that published monthly. Inspiration for this novel came from my direct contact with the joys of Corporate America and the balancing act that comes with being a working mother.
