A Lonely 20-Something Finds Her Ideal Mate. Itโ€™s a Blob. In Maggie Suโ€™s funny debut novel, a Frankenstein-like monster turns on his flailing creator.

"A sharp, funny and poignant look at what it means to connect with another being, and yourself"

Love this @nytimes.com book review of BLOB by @litmagreject.bsky.social ๐Ÿ’• (Out in the UK 6 Feb)

The latest in the small yet invigorating subgenre of human-object romance, Maggie Su's debut novel is the tale of a down-on-her luck woman, Vi, who finds a pitiable blob of goo with eyes in the alley behind a bar. She gradually molds it into a dreamy human-shaped love interest but finds her own angst harder to contain.

To Do this week: Read BLOB by @litmagreject.bsky.social!

Fun to see BLOB in the Culture Pages of @nymag.com this week (out in the UK 6 Feb) ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿฉท๐Ÿ’›
