Blob - A Love Story

"Unique, heartfelt, and hilarious, Blob: A Love Story is a delightfully inquisitive meditation on relationships and identity. What responsibility do we have in the creation of our relationships? What do we bring and leave behind? And what repercussions exist when we force ourselves into an identity instead of nurturing our real selves? This winsome book pulls off the impossible feat of examining our deepest existential questions with equal parts tenderness and droll." -- Ling Ling Huang, author of Natural Beauty "Maggie Su has written an inventive, utterly unique debut. BLOB is not only a deliciously creepy, deeply entertaining take on modern relationships, it''s also a moving look at new adulthood, and the inherent vulnerability that comes along with figuring out exactly who you''re meant to be." -- Kimberly King Parsons, author of Black Light
