Description: Kat Banakis is on her way to becoming a Christian minister. Maybe. Part memoir, part practical theology, Bubble Girl is the story of a young, edgy woman from a big, loud, ethnic Chicago family, deciding who she wants to be as a Christian adult. The book seamlessly weaves together iconic tales of those in their twenties and thirties - isolation, unemployment, virtual and real relationships, and rodent infestations - with theological reflection.
