My Name is Monika - novel
by Ana Bilic
Description
Humorous and satirical!
In a funny, amusing and satirical way Monika tells about herself: she is intelligent, talkative, passionate, perceptive and quick-witted, but all of these qualities are basically not what she needs to help her in her job as executive secretary in a small company run by a self-overrated boss. That Monika also has bad luck in love relationships is somehow to be expected – even with her newest heart flame, a Chinese, the relationship is anything but average.
