Blob


A hilarious and moving debut novel about a young woman who decides to turn a sentient blob into her perfect man... Vi Liu´s life is a mess. Having dropped out of college, she´s stuck in a job she hates at a local hotel.
Her ex-boyfriend has blocked her and she´s lashing out at her family and co-workers. One night, drunk outside a drag club, she stumbles across a mysterious sentient blob. She takes it home, where she feeds it a diet of sugary cereal and reality TV. Slowly, she realises that she can shape the blob into her perfect man: someone attentive, outgoing and with more than a passing resemblance to Ryan Gosling. But is Bob the blob really the answer to all her problems, or a catalyst for further disaster? Sharp, strange and very funny, BLOB is a delightful story about growing up, fucking up and learning how to be a real person.
