'A modern-day Mrs. Caliban BLOB is a book that looks at identity and desire in profoundly interesting ways' Kevin Wilson author of Nothing to See Here 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. 'A rollicking fun funny poignant coming of age story filled with honesty and delight' Aimee Bender author of The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake 'Just brilliant -- utterly original charming and funny weirdly real and really weird. I can't stop thinking about this book and I'm telling everyone I know to read it' Kate Davies author of In at the Deep End
